The Progressive party deplores the sur

Its enormous waste Of resources even in

before. Then, taking up the body,

Early Aeropianes,

genuine citations. You can find them
for yourself in the seventeenth canto
of the Inferno, where Dante and Vir-
gil go riding on the back of an i'm

headed the natives. He opened his
arms, bearing his shield on the left
and lifting his spear at full stretch
in his right hand, so that his brawny,
glistening body was fully exposed.
His action meant: 'T am a friend"
I lowered my rifle, and our troop
was soon in friendly touch with the
natives. The chief asked what we
were seeking in the swamps and we
told him that we were looking for the
missing Boer trekkers. He told me
that he had heard Of their settlement
in the country to the northwest be-
yond the swamps and would put us on
the way to them. After resting for
few hours, the chief and mis- follow
ers led us across the marshes by
paths which we travelled for little
more than a week until we came out
into an open country where the
kopjes were sticking up stif1y like the
horns Of young koodoo.
We had hardly reached firm land
when our soldiers fell sick. The only
one of the company of mistaken spirit
was the priest of the troop, a little
gray-headed man who was constantly
praying, with undimmed faith In Gods
, help, while the men groaned and raved

priest was keeping. He was praying

Volta gave birth, but only the stun.
knows that alongside the sieaiiine
name of Marconi may also be set thoso
of Pacinotti and Ferrar1s.
AS far back as 1864 the gentle i.a
ian physician Pacinotti introduced tini
idly to public notice a smail eieo.io
magnetic machine, with toothed ring
armature. which, he pointed out WIN
prophetic instinct, was avallaDle po'n
as a motor and as generator. Anu
then nothing happened! But ~nen
the celebrated Gramme dynamo WIFI
its ring armature arrested universal
attention, seven years later, the unoo-
trusive professor dug up his treatlse
and his machine and showed beyond
doubt he was entitled to the credit OF
the discovery, although he lacked the
essential driving power to turn II INTO
a device useful to mankind.
There perhaps lies the lesson OF MS
career. We need physical discoveries
and reverse those who seek the truth
for it's own sake. But mankind with
keen instinct saves it's warmest &C
claim for those who also make discov-
cries of some avail in adding to the
length of life, its joy, its possibilities
and it's conveniences.
Had not the hustling Belgian,
Gramme, come along with his famous
dynamo and sanguine French hackers.
Pacinotti would have let his model
slumber forever in museums and cab
inets, just where many things the
world is waiting for linger now. The
fact that Y. Pacinotti so little realized
what he had done and what his really
great inventive ability meant, is
shown by the curious fact that the
work and the studies of his later years
were devoted to vine culture. II
he did anything significant there the
records Of our time fail to show it,
but meanwhile the glorious torrent
of electrical invention has swept on
so fast and SO far to many people
even this bold recognition of the ami
able doctors genius may seem a bit
superfiuous.
