ARTIFICIAL LIGHT RIVALS SUN
Tungsten Manufacturers Say Invention
Is Cheaper Than Old Lamp.

An artificial light which more
closely resembles daylight than
any Illumination yet invented is
claimed by the manufacturers of
the Tungsten electric light, which
derives its name from the Hlament
of Tungsten which replaces the
carbon filament used in the ordin-
AIRY electric globe.
Among many of the advantages
claimed for the new light is it's
economy. AS an instance of it's
cheaper maintenance and it's
greater efficiency the makers say
that the Tungsten light will fur
nish a twenty candle-power illum-
ination with half the amount OF
current used by the sixteen
candle power lamp in use now.
1t is claimed for the new lamp
that its brilliancy is such that
artists experience no difficulty in
mixing delicate shades and colors
under it's rays. The old difficulty
encountered by dry goods men in
matching the dark shades of cloth
in artificial light is said to be over
come by the Tungsten lamp,
which so closely resembles day
light as to make even this
possible.
The distinguishing feature of the
light is its flament, which is so
minute as to make its manufac-
ture a matter of great care. 1t is
1000 of an inch in diameter, one
third the size of a strand of human
hair. The filament is made of a
paste composed of powdered tung-
stem, which is welded under great
heat in a diamond mold. The
diamond is the only material that
will Withstand the extreme heat
used in welding the tungsten
filament.
Slower Bros. of the Electric
Light Plant have put in a number
OF Tungsten lights in the stores
and homes of the city and they
are giving great satisfaction.

again or Senator?
While perhaps no man is qualified
to speak, many believe that Jared Y.
| Sanders would esteem the honor Of
being reelected Governor after the
people had taken the trouble to amend
a constitution to permit it, higher
than he would a seat in the Senate,
and many others believe that he rel
ishes executive power more than he
does legislative opportunity.
When st. Clair Adams suggested
Jared Y. Sanders for another term,
via a Constitutional amendment,
there were those who were unfeeling
enough to hint that the original
| prorEptings to this utterance came
from Senator Foster, with the unspok-
en- and almost u%nthought hope that
"the aspiring young man." given
enough rope, might hang himself.
Fosters friends have figured, it is
said, that an amendment to the Con-
stitution proposing to permit San
ders to succeed himself, would never
be passed, and that in it's defeat San
ders would suffer a loss of prestige
that would almost eliminate him
from consideration for the United
States Senate.
1t is now said quite plainly that
Senator Foster does not desire to see
Jared Y. Sanders either Govrnor or
Unitd States Senator, and that he
would be pleased to see Sanders ham,
mered to political extinction with Du-
pre-, even as Blanchard was ham,
mered to political extinction by San
ders.
AS THE LEGISLATURE STANDS.
There are two ways of looking at
the General Assembly.
Some persons will say that man
country members, men like Senator
Elder, Representative Atkinson and
others who were warm supporters Of
Sanders originally, lost faith in the sim
cerity of his reform expressions.
They will add that the city members
| will be inllnical becauce of the tr ,.1itn.
dous injury tc The city organization
through the rcAcrm measures which
Sanders inaugural address rendered
possible. They say 'Ae Gov sruOr
gave one side the words and the
other side the works" and kept the
good will of neither. They say that
the Barrett-D upre combination felt
no gratitude to the Governor for it's
victory, and that the Thomas-Labbe
alliance blamed the Governor for his
defeat.
And these persons will be largely
right.
Yet there is another viewpoint.
Sanders still holds the whip-hand
over the city delegation for the ap-
pOintments in the city have not been
confirmed, and need not be until the
last day of the next session. And
Sanders has steadily fostered country
good opinion since the last session
adjourned.
With kind words and noble prom
Uses fer the country and a club for
the city-ancient grudges will cast
fewer votes than n would think.
Thus it may be readily figured that
Sanders will be prepared, if he so de-
sires, to wage right merry war for his
amendment With a GOOD show of

SAFE BURGLARS FLEE,
TOOLS LEFT BEHIND
Attempt to Rob Saloon on North Ala
media Street Frustrated by un-
expected Approach of
Passers BY

Burglars made an Unsuccessful at.
tempt to blow the safe in the saloon OF
Gerckeps Bros, SOP North Alameda
street, early yesterday morning. The
men were frightened away by passers-
by and in their haste abandoned their
outfit of tools, which were found in the
rear of the place when the saloon was
opened yesterday morning.
The attempt to rob the strong box,
which contained 5000, was discovered
when one of the proprietors opened the
place yesterday morning. He found the
two rear doors open and sledge ham
rner and a cold chisel lying near. "A
further examination made in the rear
of the place revealed complete set of
drilling tools, bottle of nitroglycerine,
a bar of brown soap, several chisels, an
18-pound hammer, a coil of fuse and
some dynamite caps.
The safe is located in the front part
of the saloon, and the men evidently
heard persons approaching and ran
away,
The matter was reported to the
police, and detectives detailed on the
case learned that man living near the
saloon saw two men jump over the
fence in the rear of the place and run
down the street owing to the dark
ness he was unable to get a good
description.
