The Electric City of the Future.

All the well known scientists anC
 business men of today agree that tn,
 city of the future will be an electrica | city. With a very few exceptions al | the manifold requirements for speed
 and economy will be met by electric ! ity.
 Even the food products consumed in the electric city of the future vii
 be the results of electricity applied to agriculture. The country will have an abundance of electrical power
 for light, power and heat on the
 farms The farming communities
 will flourish under the stimulus of an electrified tOpsoil, and an increased absorption of nitrogen, procured di- rect from the atmosphere by electrIc- ity. These processes are already successful as experiments on a small sca,e.
 In the business CT transportation, the electrically propelled aeroplane will doubtless develop to supremacy for high-speed mail, and perhaps passenger service. The electric gyro- scope will furnish stability for this device and also for monorail, high speed trains electrically driven. The locomotive as we now know it will be obsolete, but the electric locomo- tive will have come into it's own for general freight and passenger service
 Wireless telegraphy has already ceased to be a toy and the city of the future will not be covered with network of wires as at present Wireless telegraphs will communicate with all parts of the world and wire less telephones will be used for both local and long distance service. Even the transmission of the power cur rents will be effected through wire less, or the atmospheric electrical waves. The storage batteries of the future will be light and compact and very easily applied to vehicles and boats.
 In the new electrical city man will do the thinking and electrical driven machinery will do the work Time was, and that only a very few years ago, when nearly all the work in the world, from sweeping the floor to pounding out hOrseshoes and nails, was done by hand. Today the appli- cation of electricity in the workaday world passes all comprehension. The powerful motors have adapted them selves to all kinds of work in the shop, office or home, and the largest factories from the watch making shops to the giant steel mills, are driven by electricity. Motor applica- tions are increasing every day and it is estimated that within the next fifty years every industry under the sun, and nearly all the work done now by hand, will be electrified
 To enumerate the thousand and one ways in which electricity has all ready been applied is superfluous; but it's universal adaptability sug- gests wonders for the future.

In the role of chaperon he exercises careful supervision over the morals of the thousands of unattended young women who enter the country from foreign lands every year. Many of these women come here for the eX press purpose of marrying sweethearts who have preceded them and if they are without relatives or close friends here the federal authorities insist that the ceremony take place at the immi grafton station or upon receiving con Vincing assurances that it will be held immediately upon landing. Sometimes an officer is sent along to see to it that the wedding knot is tied properly. Not only does the federal government play the part of an official Cupid, but it frequently lends its efforts in hunt ing up prospective bridegrooms who fail to appear on schedule time. and this week it acted as messenger boy to bring happiness to a young Russian who was returning to Europe because his Pennsylvania sweetheart had re- fused to marry him. At the last mo ment the young woman relented and telegraphed frantically to the aut. ities: Tell Joseph to come back and I will marry him" The message was duly delivered just before the steamer sailed and Joseph sped down the gang plank presumably bound for Pennsyl- vania and happiness.

While New York has stood for the sheath gown. the peach basket hat trimmed with real fruit and other vagaries of feminine apparel without flinching, murmurs of protest arose this week when the pantaloon gown was exhibited here for the first time. Most of these protests, it may be re- corded. came from the feminine mem- bers of the population who asserted that they would never never make spectacles of themselves by donning this latest Parisian innovation. Advo- cates of the new regalia assert. how ever, that from the viewpoint of mod esty it is far superior to the sheath costume. the principal object of which apparently was to reveal everything that it tried to conceal. The pantalOon gown is about what it's name implies. From the front it presents what the fashion writers might describe as q semi -trouser effect" the skirt being divided to a point above the knees. From the rear it looks like an ordinary gown with a train. The trousered DOT tions fit about the ankles in a manner that gives no excuse for the display of hosiery and the costume is said to be extremely comfortable for walking or shopping. since it Obviates the neces- sity of the wearer's holding up her skirts. Certain male critics have been mean enough to assert that these very facts will prevent it's general adoption.

STANDING ROOM SIGN
 SOON IN MANHATTA AVERAGE PERSON HAS GROUND SPACE ONLY FOUR FEET
 BY EIGHT.
Greater New York Less Congested
 Than Other Cities.

New York, June 15.-(Spe"ial Core
 spondence of The kepublican)-
 Twenty years from now the ground
 area of lower New York will not af-
 ford even standing room for its occu-
 pants. The congestion of population
 in that part of this city known as
 Manhattan covering the site of the
 original settlement, extending from the
 battery northward to the Harlem river,
 has already become so dense that
 were the whole of it to die at once the
 territory in which it lives and works
 would not afford sufficient space for it's burial. The population per acre of
 Manhattan is now 157 which is more than five times that of any other city in the country. Were this population housed in one-story buildings the average amount of ground per person would be a plot sixteen feet square. But as the average height Of buildings in this territory is practically eight stories, the average size of the ground space per inhabitant is the incredibly small area of 32 square feet-a plot four feet by eight In spite of the con- gestion. however, greater New York as distinguished from Manhattan is not the most densely populated city in the country. That title belongs to Balti- more with 29 per acre, while greater New York with 20 per acre comes aft CT Milwaukee with 23 and St. Louis with 22. How rapidly the congestion in Manhattan may be expected to in- crease is indicated by the value of its real estate. In this respect two new records were set last week. The first established a new high record for Fifth avenue property. lot having been sold at a price amounting to $S4,O00 front foot or S270 a square foot, a value considerably larger than that repre- scented by an equal area covered with | fifty dollar bills. Only forty years ago i this same property sold for one-twen- | tieth of this price. The second record | came as the result of the leasing of | a piece of uptown property for 140 | years. From these two factors it is | evident that the desire to snap up | property for long terms together with | its rapidly increasing value, will soon reduce the average amount of ground per inhabitant to less than the space necessary for standing room.

This city. which according to would be reformers has long had various po- litical, financial and municipal white elephants, though lacking a specimen of the fourlegged variety. is now to have a white whale or perhaps two of them. At any rate Assistant Curator Andrews of the Museum of Natural history has just set forth on a unique fishing trip on the St. Lawrence river for the purpose of catching some white whales and bringing them back to New York alive to sport in the aquarium and the zoo. Every spring, it is said. the white whales appear in that river. coming from no one knows where, and are promptly massacred by the inhab- itants for their oil It is at this annual hunt that Assistant Curator Andrews hopes to obtain a live specimen. If he is successful the country will wit ness the spectacle of a live whale traVeling overland for nearly a thou sand miles and in a private car at that. Arrangements are already under way indeed to bring specimens to this city either in a tank car or a flat car Either task would be extremely diff cult since these fish attain a length Of twenty-five feet. If it becomes nec- essary to use flat car the whale will be dashed on it and then surrounded with sea weed which will be kept con stantly wet. Food will be administered by attendants who are being taken along for just this purpose. Altogether the plans evolved for the catching of a live whale have in them all the elements of the biggest fish story on record.
