Mystery Surrounding Berlin Mortality
/ Has Not Been Solved.

inmates Of the municipal night shelter

sected.
Thirty additional cases of sickness
also are reported and the problem is
becoming more mysterious, as among
the victims one at least was never
in public shelter and some others
did not partake of the suspected fish.
Official experts continue to insist
that the sickness was brought about
by ptonaine poisoning, but they can
not ascertain where the poison came

The Craze For Food That Seemed to
Strike His Pet Customer.
J. Hayden Clarendon, eating his three
meals in German grill Of much re-
nown. has day after day extended
his acquaintanceship from the steward
to each Of the walters and from thence
into the kitchen to the cooks. And it
SO happened awhile ago that one Of
the cooks had to send his wife to
a hospital. Clarendon. ever thought
full, bought flowers and sent them out
to the kitchen to be forwarded thence
to the hospital.
This, Of course, made him more than
solid with the culinary department Of
the big restaurant. with the result
that whenever waiter announced
that the order was "for Mr. Claren-
dom the cooks would go the limit in
getting him the best steaks and chops
and serving them 40 works Of art.
The walters weren't slow In learn
ing that the word Clarendon" was
the passport to the kitchens best-the
open sesame, az It were.
So 1t happened that one afternoon
waiter came Into the kitchen with the
order:
'T-bone steak. rare. for Mr. Claren-
don"
The man at the broiler threw up bis
hands.
Whats come over Mr.. Clarendon p
he asked in establishment. HE has
had two porterhouse steaks. boiled
salmon. ham and eggs. three oyster
stews, sand dabs. chops. and now he
wants T-bone steak-and all in an

1t is a very common error to confus,
a motor with dynamo, and but very
few, outside of electrical engineering
circles. can explain the difference be
tween these two machines. The news
paper man writes about the "dyna

another form Of energy. A motor is
machine that takes the electrical
energy generated by the dynamo and
converts 1t back again into mechan-
1cal energy. And, curiously enough.
the two machines are almost identical
IN their construction. Indeed. some
dynamos can be operated as motors
and some motors as dynan.os without
any change whatever
Going little into detail. a dynamo,
or generator, as it is now more COM
monty called by electrical men. is a
machine consisting of wha. is Gale

group of magnets. The armature con-

no one can see how it is done, it is
nevertheless true that this simple proc

flow through the wire of the armature.
which may be led out of the latter
through suitable sliding contacts or
brushes and sent out through the con.
Quoting wires of circuit which may
extend many miles. The current is
supposed, for convenience, to flow out
over one wire and back over the other,
keeping up a continuous flow through
the armature and outside circuit.
There you have the dynamo. To
operate the dynamo mechanical energy
such as that of a steam engine or
water wheel is required. The more
current you take out Of the armature
the harder it is to turn.
Now. if you take a machine similar
to dynamo away out somewhere on
the line and connect its terminals to
