Development of Electric Road.

The electric railway had many Gin
ventors" who by various i'm
provements brought the system to its
present usefulness. Thomas Daven-
port, blacksmith of Brandon, VT, Ia
credited with having first suggested
the electric railway, although an Ital-
ian priest, Able Salvatore Del Negro,
professor of natural history at the
University of Padua, is reputed to
have designed an electric toy traction
machine of the reciprocating type in
1880. Davenport ran a toy motor
mounted on wheels on small circu.
lar railway in 1884, exhibiting this a
year later at Springfield and Boston,
Mass. About half a century passed.
however, before the electric railway
was made practical for present uses.

heard in o telephone receiver, which
is shown connected in shunt across
the binding-posts of the lamp holder
with one or two cells of dry battery
in circuit, Fig. T.
The aerial line, No. stranded, is
run from binding-post B through the
choking or tuning coil, and for best
results should extend up SO #. in the
air. To work 2e-mile distance the
line should be lee or 15e #. above
the ground. A good way is to erect
a wooden pole on house or barn
and carry the aerial wire to the top
and out to the end Of a gaff or arm.
To the end of the aerial wire fasten
a bunch of endless loops made of
about No. IA magnet wire (bare or
insulated), attaching both ends to the
