Col. Livingston Dead,

Colonel Lon Livingston, who repre-
scented the Fifth district in congress
for twenty years, being finally de-
feated by1 William Schley Howard
died in Washington city last Sunday.
His passing away removes one
of the most picturesque figures OF
Georgia politics.
Colonel Livingston was farmer and
his home is in Newton county. He
served in the legislature, in the state
senate, was president of the State Ag-
ricultural Society and of the Farmers
Alliance. He attained great power as
the head of the Alliance and came
near being the candidate of that or
ganization for governor 1t was at
that time that Hon. William J. North
en- became governor and Colonel Liv-
ingSton was elected to congress.
He served for ten terms and seemed
invincible until Schley Howard, OF
DeKalb, endorsed him.
While Colonel Livingston was in
congress Atlanta got about everything
portable that the city went after.
Whether the Colonel got the goods
or they just came naturally, is not
known, but he is entitled to the cred
it. He was a politician of unusual
skill, kind-hearted, generous and
ready to help anybody that needed
help if it was within his power.
He had his faults, as we all have
ours, but he had his good points also,
and now that his long life has drawn
to close, we may we'll shed a tear
for one who in all the struggles OF
politics harbored no malice and who
would have divided his last crust with
his bitterest enemy.J

yet each avoided the special faults OF

REALM OF APPLIED SCIENCE
How Work of Bureau OF Standards in
Cities Has Been Extended in
Past Years.

The work of the bureau of stand
ards has been greatly extended of
late years, says the New York Her
aid. The operations of the Office were
at first limited for the most part to
standards of length mass, capacity
and temperature, but the rapid prog
ress of applied science created new
demands which no institution was
competent to satisfy.
Photometry, or the measurement of
light, is a case in point Thirty years
ago 1t had no great commercial i'm
portance. but the extended use of cleo
tricity for lighting purposes, the dis
coVery and manufacture of acetylene
gas and the invention of numerous i'm
provements in burners for ordinary il
Illuminating gas have opened up a new
field. Photometric apparatus is now
necessary in hundreds, or even thou
sands, Of factories.
Not only must the volume of light
be accurately measured, but it's chro-
matte composition must be deter
mined. The most desirable light is.
OF course, that which comes nearest
to sunlight in its color composition.
The pitch of tuning forks, of inter.
est to manufacturers of musical In
struments; the testing Of optical sur
faces, which is important to every one
who wears glasses; the verification of
thermometers, of gas, water and cleo
trio meters-in fact, the standardizing
OF all sorts of measures-are coming
more and more within the scope of
the bureau of standards.
