SAFE LAMP FOR MINERS.
inventor Proposes to Make Use Of
Liquid Electricity"

Tests have been conducted recently
with = lamp that may prove a great
advance on the miners lamps now in
use in the coal fields Of the United
States. While the inventor has not
fully described his lamp in his demon
STATIONS, practical men have thor
oughly investigated IL and term 1t the
liquid electricity lamp" The lamp
weighs FIVE and one-half pounds and
is not intended to hook on the miners
cap. Instead Of the cap hook, it has a
large metal hook, which is to be
caught on the mine wall and the heavy
glasses sighted toward the point where
the miner is working.
At a distance of ten feet II is posi-
BILE to read a newspaper by it, and two
lamps in one room make 1t as bright
as day. BY two sockets the lamps are
charged from a 110-volt dynamo To-
Gated in a separate room in the mine.
The lamps are intended to be placed
in this room after every working day
and are in charge Of a special work
man, familiar with charging them, the
charge lasting eight hours. The lamps
are expensive, costing in the neighbor-
hood of SIS each. One Of the features,
that is most expensive is the small
tubes and film that meet at q point,
where the light is projected. The
breakage of these adds materially to-
the cost of the lamp. The miners are
somewhat divided as to the value Of
the lamp. many of them Directing to
the weight in carrying it in and out Of
the mine, while all believe that it gives
a more perfect and satisfactory light
The oficials believe that the men will
overcome this dislike as they become
more familiar with the lamp.

Awful Crimes Of cupidity.

Looking Mt the quaint, picturesque
town Of Mogok, Burmsh, Graded in

Magazine. yet the Ruby City has
seen things not to be recounted, be-
cause Of its treasures, from King Sol
onions day to that Of King Thebaw.
Indeed, were II not for the red glow

I'm Mogok they see everything In

Natural Aversion to Stripes.

EXCELSIOR Eureka.

Never in the history OF any
country, in any age, has there
been such a mighty work be-
fore the youth of our land as
there is today; and we might
say never were young men as
ignorant of it and untitled for
their work. Each one wants
the other to row the boat
while he catches the fish.
All seem to believe in luck.
Let us say to you, young men,
that pluck wins more battles
than luck. Wishing is the
easiest way in the world to
get a poor living. Looking
for the fortunate star to rise
is like standing on the oceans
strand waiting and watching
for Wealth-laden ships to
come over the sea that never
"put OUT Wishing brings
a small income, and the taxes
on it are enormous. Don't
say the world owes you a liv-
ing until you have earned
one. Idleness in boys and
girls is the blacklist curse of
any land. There IS just as
great a work and just as noble
for the young woman as for
the young man. When the
girls, in earnestness, cast
aside the loose cloak Of vain
fckleness, and, donning the
beautiful garments of labor
ing purity, come forth from
the sickly chamber OF the :ac-
complished" asking "What
shall we do?" and bearing
the motto "Woman's ability
shall see light then the
boys will become more earn
est, more temperate, more
like men. Dear young peo-
pie be not afraid or ashamed
of labor. Hard hands, strong
arms, and sun burned faces
are honorable. Take excel
sior" for your motto, and if.
you are patient, in al few
years you can surely write
under it that other good
word, Eureka. -
