The ELECTRIC ACE

rust as the Nineteenth Century was the
.ae Of Steel, the Twentieth Century, in
;ts beginning at least, is the Age OF
electricity, and electricity demands COP
ner IN ever increasing quantities. For
.,,a last six decades of the Nineteenth
century, says the Copper Handbook for
,oo6 lust published by Horace !. Stev-
ems. of Houghton, Michigan, the pro-
duction of the leading metals increased
j the rate Of almost exactly IL per
cent. compounded yearly, but in the
last decade of the century copper left the
other metals behind and for Is wears
nast the average ratio of increase in con
ner production has been 8 per cent.
compounded yearly. This difference of
only one and one-half per cent. in fhe
ratio of yearly increase, may seem small
hut like the fable of the horses shoes
for which the first nail brought penny,
and each nail thereafter was doubled in
price, the cumulative results are sur
prising, and at the end of Is years have
run into hundreds of millions OF dollars
In 1881, quarter century past, the
worlds production of copper was lo3. 900
long tons, worth an average of Is cents
per pound, giving a total value of So5.-
600, 900 in round figures, while at the
present moment the copper mines of
the world are producing at the rate Of
nearly 800, 900 tons per annum, worth
with copper at little more than 20 cents
per pound, 81 900, 900 for every dav in
the year, or at the rate of 1865. 900 600
for lo06---an increase of almost 6ye-foi
in the worlds copper bill in a quarter of
a century. With electricity finding new
uses daily and with a rapid extension of
electric energy for power, traction and
many other emplovments, there is small
hope that the poor old world will be
able to curtail its copper bill to any inn
portant extent, and every reason to be-
lieve that the worlds copper, ten years
hence, will cost considerably more than
the worlds iron and steel cost ten wears
ago

With his hat tilted over his brows,
O'Rourke walked on staring at the pave
ment Suddenly timid voice breathed
his name, and looking up with great
start, he beheld the widow, who stood
near him with pale face, eyes swollen
with many recent tears, and clasped, Pc
titioning hands.
Hector" said the widow, in a fright
ened and appealing voice.
Julia" he answered. He was glad
that his own face was pale, and that his
eyes were haggard with trouble. He was
rejoiced that he was detected in mien
and careless in dress.
IL ought not to speak to you," she
said, futteringly. But I couldn't help
it, Hector. l want you to tell me the
truth-the real truth
Julia" he said, Il have nothing but
the truth to tell YOU" He was half re-
proachful wholly plying, and devoted
in his looks May 1 drive home with
you? May l tell you everything?"
YES" she said, laying both hands
upon her heart, and futtering painfully.
Come. Tell me the truth"
OuueI any IcSS pressure tuoA tIAiS,
he answered, "it would be unmanly to
tell it. But the whole truth is that a
woman's unfounded and unreasonable
jealousy has parted us and made us both
unhappy"
Hector, told her so. But she said
she hated you"
my darling, said O'Rourke, with a
lofty and yet tender remonstrance, do
you see how impossible, how cruelty i'm
possible, you made it for me to defend
myself properly in her presence? Don't
you see how still more cruelty impossi-
BILE it was for me to defend myself when
Maskeyne appeared? How could wound
Maskelyne? A man I've loved like a
brother this ten years. A man who has
heaped countless benefits on me! A man
who has acted toward me with a con-
slant kindness Julia, I swear to you
by all l hold sacred that 1 knew Miss
Buffers prediction for myself before
you and 1 ever met If you and l had
never met confess it! You ask me
for the truth, Julia, and you shall have
it all without Disguise! If you and
had never met l might have brought my
self to look upon Miss Butler as charm
ing and suitable future wife for me. But
that I ever loved her, that l ever told
her SO, or gave her reason to hope so or
believe so, is profoundly false. 1 have
never loved a woman until l met you.
have never breathed a word of love to
any woman but yourself. You will be-
leve me some day. 1 can 60 away and
wait. And even if we meet no more, I
have a certain prophecy in my own
heart. You will understand me and do
me justice"
