Electric L.inht Bulbs.

1t has been remarked that the effec-
tive life of incandescent electric lamps
is much longer with clear than with
ground glass bulbs. e. 2. Hyde ex-
plains this fact as follows A thin de-
poSit of carbon is formed on the in
terror surface of the bulbs, and this
absorbs "A certain portion of the radia-
ton from the filament. When the
glass is clear the light passes straight
through, suffering a definite loss from
the carbon film. When the glass is
frosted the light undergoes many re-
Elections in the interior of the bulb
from the innumerable facets, and at
each reflection it loses something on
account of the obstructing film. The
consequence is that the total amount
of loss is much greater with ground
glass than with clear glass. Mr.
Hyde's experiments show that the fila.
ment lasts as long in the one kind of
bulb as in the other.-Youth's Com.

GRAVITATION.
The Mystery of This Wonderful Force
In Nature.

The Mystery Of This Wonderful Force
In Nature.
When plants are grown in recepta-
cles fastened to the rim of n rapidly
revolving wheel, the shoots and leaves
grow toward the center and the roots
away from the center of revolution.
This is remarkable as showing the in
fiuence Of centrifugal motion upon
growth.
But the earth, any point in whose
surface at the equator passes through
fifteen miles in one minute, has a cen
trifugal motion so swift and so great
that it is almost inconceivable. Why,
then, reasoning on the basis Of this
wheel experiment, do not trees and
plants grow in the directions they are
urged by this centrifugal force-name-
ly, with leaves and boughs toward the
earth's center and roots pointing to the
sky?
The answer is because there is a
force called gravitation which over
powers the enormous centrifugal force
and practically reverses 1t. Whether
this overmastering force which we call
gravitation is electrical or what it is
no one has yet been able to discover.
There can be no doubt that it is the
greatest force we know of.
To unveil the mystery of it would be
to become masters of Il power whose
possibilities dazzle the human mind.
1t would simplify the problem of build
ing, water and air navigation, projec-
tiles and many other branches of me-
chanics. 1t would revolutioniZe pres
ent methods.-St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

Neuna People In Virginia In Chief
Justice MsrshalPs Day.


IN an old biography of Chief Justice
Marshall there Is an anecdote which
gives a significant hint of the disci-
pline to which young people were sub
ject in that earlier day.
several of the great jurists nieces
ware In the habit Of visiting him, and
as they were young and attractive the
house became rendezvous for the
ieaGing young men of the city during
the afternoons. Judge MarshalYs black
major domo, old Uncle Joseph, held a
tight rein upon these visitors. Every
day at o'clock he would appear at
the door of the drawing room in spot
less livery and with pl found bow
would announce:
Ladies, his honor the chief justice
has retired to his room to prepare for
dinner.
Gentlemen. dinner will be served at
half past 4 o'clock. 1t is now 4. His
honor will be pleased If you will re-
main, and covers have been laid for
you at the table. If you cannot re.
main, will you permit the young ladies
to retire to prepare for the meal?"
The gentlemen usually took their
leave. and the ladies retired in an i'll
humor. but any remonstrance with 10.
seph was only answered by: "It is the
rule of the house. Young folks must
be kept within bounds"
In Virginia houses of the better class.
notwithstanding their almost bound
less hospitality, the calls of young men
In that day were strictly held within

cedents and character were we'll known

Denver, Col. ,Juy 4.-Bird S. Coler,
borough president of Brooklyn, and
the personal representative of Charles
Murphy Of Tammany, said today:
when we nominated Alton b. Parker
at st. Louis, Nebraska invited us to
name a vice-presidential candidate.
I'VE did so. Now we are going to
return the compliment and let Ne
braska choose for us.
Our preference is Judge Gray of
Delaware, and after him we prefer
Charles Towne of New York.
New York is convinced that the
democracy of the nation is a unit for
Bryan and it will cast its vote for
him on the first ballot, l am con-
vnced."
This statement is one of the most
important made recently in vitw of
the statement that Tammany intend
ed TO fight Bryan.

Dr. w. G. Cole, city physician, is
now planning a campaign against the
dairy cows that are affected with tu-
berculosis and if the doctors recon-
mendations are acted upon by the
city council there is to be something
doing along the line of bettering the
city's milk supply.
That from 10 to 80 per cent of the
dairy cows supplying milk to this city
are affected with tuberculosis is be-
lieved by DR.. Cole. 1t would not be
surprising If this were found to be
true for a recent investigation in the
state of Washington showed that 20
per cent of the dairy cattle there were
so affected. 1t is also known that the
situation in Oregon is as bad If not
worse than in the Evergreen state.
''It has been scientifically demon
strated that bovine tuberculosis is
transmissable to the human and I be-
lieve by far the greater number Of
consumptive cases come from milk
from tubercular cows" declared DR..
Cows today II believe that If dairy
cows were regularly inspected and
all tubercular animals killed there
would sSon be an end to tuberculosis
among people"
Acting upon this BELIEF DR.. Cole
will recommend to the city council
that an inspection of the local dairy.
cows be made and that the local Of
flee of the bureau of animal industry
be asked to assist in the work.
Yesterday DR.. Cole addressed a let
ter to DR.. Mcclure, in charge of the
federal quarantine work, asking him
If he can have his men make an in
specticn as is desired. Though he has
not formally replied DR.. Mcclure has
strongly indicated that If the city will
take the matter 'up he will have his
men make the inspection and that
without cost.
In testing for tuberculosis the tu-
berculine test is used 1t is adminis-
tered as an injection and If the ami
mai has tuberculosis its temperature
rises three or four degrees, while il
the animal is free from the ailment
the tuberculine has no effect.
