is the principle upon which the chok-

is the principle upon which the chok-
ing coil is constructed
Shunt-A by path in n circuit by
which part of the current branches
off from the main circuit returning
to 1t at another point. A shunt dyna-
mo or motor has its field coils con-
nected as shunt to its armature
coils, that is the field and armature
are connected In multiple.
Static electrieity-A high potential
stationary charge of electricity which
may exist upon insulate bodies. Gel
luloid being an insulator, it becomes
charged WITH electricity by friction
This characteristic is sometimes re-
sponsible for the spelling of moving
picture films in the camera when pic
marks of the static discharges show
in the film like miniature lightning
strokes.
Thermostat-An instrument which,
when heated closes an electric cir
cult, thus operating a signal or even
turning valve to regulate the tenn
perature of a room.
Transofrmer-A core of iron hold
ing two coils OF wire. One coil.
called the primary, is connected 10
the supply wires; the other coil,
called the secondary, is connected to
the lamps or other apparatus. The
current is generated in the secon-
dairy coil by induction from the pri-
mary. The voltage of the secondary
bears the same relation to that of
the primary that the number of turns
of wire in the secondary coil bears
to tne number in the primary. Used
with alternating currents only.
Volt-The unite of electrical force,
pressure, or potential. One volt will
force one ampere through a resis-
lance of one ohm.
Voltage-The number of volts ex-
listing in any circuit or generator of
electric current.
Watt-The unit of electrical power
found by multiplying volts and am
peres together An electrical horse
power equals TAG watts; 1t may be
TAG volts and one ampere, or one vote
and 746 amperes, or any other two
factors of TAG.
Watt-Hour-The unit of power con-
,umed; 1t equals one watt expended
or one hour, and is the usual basis
If charge on electric light and power
,ills.
William Low, of Scotland, will ex
,eriment on a large scale with tle |
application of electricity to agricul

tropical forest, trunk appraised, tusks
glistening, eyes cleaning, legs like
monoliths crushing all opposition, is
more than enough to fill with awe
akin to fear the soul of mere hui
man, no matter how steely his nerves,
how true his rifle or how clear his con-
science.
That Mr.. Roosevelt should not be
satisfied with the dangers of lion, hip
popotamus and rhinoceros killing and
desires to add to them the unuues-
toned perils of elephant tracking is
cumulative proof of his ambition to
experience every possible thrill that
this little world affords. His chosen
hunting field on the Uganda tableand
affords probably the best elephant ter
ritory now remaining in all Africa. Re
mote from the coast, infrequently
touched even on it's edges by whites,
growing luxuriantly the pachyderm's
best liked foods, well watered and well
shaded, central Uganda was apparent
ly created by the gods of the elephant
as the ideal breeding place and play
ground of their favorite children.
African elephant hunting is more
hazardous than that of India, where
the venturers have trained elephants,
on the backs of which large baskets
or howdahs are placed to carry the
riflemen comparatively out of harms
way. But no such trained pachyderms
are had in Africa and the tracking
and attacking must be done on foot an
operation said by the renowned author
ity Sir Samuel Baker, to be the most
dangerous sport on earth, for, since
many elephants are killed without any
danger Oh foot, it is absolutely in
evitable that the charge of wounded
animal will sooner or later have to be
met successfully by the man who

CARNEGIE ON WAR.

Andrew Carnegie In a speech last
night before the New York society ex.
pressed the opinion that never before
has the worlds peace seemed to be SO
seriously threatened as now. Mr.. Car
negie cited the activity Of Germany
and England in building UP gigantic
fleets and the fierce jealousy between
these two countries as a danger sign.
The result of this he belives will be
to make the relative power of the
two navies and the consequences OF
battle the topic of constant discussion
in every shape and the least little
clash would loose the pent up passions
of the people.
Mr.. Carnegie likened the present
day conditions among the nations to
the conditions in California back in
the days of 40, where every man went
armed to the teeth to prevent attack
with the result that there was no end
Of fighting deadly feuds until the arm
ing of man was prohibited by law
Unless there is a change in policies
Mr.. Carnegie points out that peace
loving nations will have to go on
building excessive navies through the
extortion of millions from people al
ready over-burdened.
To save the nations from them
selves, Mr.. Carnegie believes there
sooner or later must emerge from the
present unparalleled increase OF
ornaments, a league Of peace embrace
ing the most advanced nations, pro-
claiming since the world now has
shrunk into neighborhood with instan.
taneous communication, with it's total
commerce yearly exceeding $2S,OO0,-
100000 all civilized nations are deep
ly interested in world peace, that the
time has passed when any one or
two nations can be permitted to break
it,
Mr.. Carnegie expressed the belief
that it is the mission of the United
States to lead the world in reign Of
peace under the law He believed the
president, without being intrusive,
might exert his influence in favor of
peace, and perhaps invite the leading
naval powers to consider practical
agreement (which would avert the ap-
palling dangers which today threaten
the world in a not distant future"
Mr.. Carnegie is probably taking too
pessimistic view of conditions, yet
many agree with him that it would be
fine if his theories could be made to
work out in practice. 1t is certain
that just now the world is not ready to
transform Its naval boats into pleasure
yachts, however, and Mr.. Carnegie
must be willing to allow his name to
be enrolled with that army of think
ers who think in advance Of their
times,
