These mechanical bartenders take all
the conviviality out of the tavern. They
don't know anything. Why. it used to be
that the tavernkeeper could talk to you
about the actors and the actresses at the
Theater Comique or at Ford's Opera
House, and about the horses. He made
you feel at home. Talk to one of the
new generation OF automatic bartenders
about Lydia Thompson, Jennie Lind
Parepa-ROsa. Kate Claxton, Judith or
Maggie Mitchell, Edward Forrest, Mac
ready. Lolita, Dexter of Tenbroeck,
Longfellew, Goldsinith's Maid. Lexington,
Mambrino, and he will look at you as
though he would like to call a cop. All
he knows about horses is some crooked
tip that he has got from a tout that a
ringer is to start in the last race and
that the odds will be hundred to one.
All he knows about the stage is that

Tar Weakens Rope.

Rope is often tarred to protect it
from the weather. This is a somewhat
doubtful practice, as the acid in the
tar weakens the rope to such an ex-
tent that engineers estimate tarred
rope to be only two-thirds as strong
as clean, new rope. No kind of oil
or other preparation has SO far been
found that will not injure the rope,
except taIlow. Tallow and graphite
are used in making transmission rope
and for lubricating it when in use.-

mobile has come to serve them as an
efficient and rapid means of transit.

A lawyer was once asked by
the president Of railroad to
suggest a sign that could be

something that would pre-
vent accidents and would also
be effective in defending
damage suits when accidents
occurred.
He suggested the three
words, stop! Look! Listen!"
He received a fee Of $4,000,
and his suggestion was worth
it because those words, post
ed at grade crossings, pre-
vented many accidents.

NEW LIGHT ON ELECTRICITY

A n American observer has called atten-
\ ton to curious property of an electric
current in that, when passing round a sharp
corner, it apparently projects a discharge
along its original line of motion.
In Germany the same phenomenon has
also been observed, and now another author
ity advances the notion that it is evidence of
the existence of true electric momentum
resembling that of water flowing in pipe
Faraday had thought of the possibility of
such thing; but his experiments led him
to conclude against its existence. Clerk
Maxwell afterward raised the question again,
and also decided it in the negative. But it
has lately been pointed out that the phe-
nomenon is in accord with the most recent
theory of the atomic nature of electricity,
which had not been worked out in Maxwell's
day. At any rate, it is said, there is here
newly acquired fact about electricity, what
ever the ultimate explanation of it may be.
