To the Edito- OF the Evening Star:
We talk about the seven wonders
or the ancients and overlook the
greatest wonder in the history of the
world. There is probably not man
or woman in the country that has not
USED the mysterious phenomena in
some way, and while child can tell
you what it is called, no man can ex-
plain what it is, yet it is used in
every city, town and village in this
country. What is it? Electricity.
Most of us think that electricity is
some new force recently discovered,
put II you will stop and think a Sec
ond you will realize that it is as old
as creation, and that's quite old.
The earliest records of it's observa-
ton that haye come down to us are
the meaere reports of the Philosopher
Thales, of Miletus, one of the Seven
Wise Men of Greece" who lived about
500 years before the Christian era.
The term electricity" comes from
the Latin name for amber. electricus
or electrum. The early Greeks
recognized the fact that amber when
rubbed attracted light particles to it,
or as we would say today, became
electrified, but it was not until about
1900 A. d. that DR.. Gilbert discov-
cred that other substances besides
amber and jet, such as glass, resin,
sulphur and others possessed the
power of attraction when rubbed, so
we see the beginning of electrical
science really begun in the seven
iteenth century.

story of Franklin drawing electricity
from the clouds with key and a
kite. but the two most important
discoveries are the voltair battery
and the dynamo electric machine. The
voltair Batteries were incapable of
commercially producing the powerful
currents required to operate ma
chine of any magnitude, and II was
not until the dynamo electric machine
was perfected that electricity be-
came commercially practicable.
Since the advent of the dynamo
electric generator the electrical in
dustry has shown growth that has
never been equaled by any other in
dustry, not even steam or gas. Statis-
ticians estimate that approximately
81 per cent. of the people Of the
United States use electricity in some
form every day, and that more than
per cent. of the total population
of this country get his or her living
directly or indirectly from electricity
and its ramifications. We may COM
prehend the magnitude of the cleo
trical industry when in one branch
alone, the central station. more than
$4,000, 100000 is invested, and the gross
earnings are something over $40.-
100000 annually. 1t is safe to say
that the total annual expenditure on
electrical service, apparatus and sup
plies in this country is over $4,000

AousE TARIFF TINkgRs AWAIT WILSON DECISION

1t Is even a question as yet whether
or not Mr.. Wilson will favor revision
of the entire tariff in single bill.
This plan is practically agreed upon
by the ways and means committee,
but will meet with serious opposition
in the Democratic caucus, unless it
received the Presidents approval.
There is a growing belief among
Democratic leaders that the free
sugar paragraph will have to be left
out, and a duty of perhaps cent
pound left on sugar, to secure us
passage by Democratic votes in the
Senate. If this is done the free sugar
advocates will bend their efforts TO
having the color test taken out of the
law and the old No. 16 Dutch STAN

The President held long confer
ence with Senator BILLY" Hughes at
the White House last night, at which
the tariff was discussed, and today
talked on the subject with Senator
Simmons, chairman of the finance
committee of the Senate.
1t was said al the White House and
the Capitol today that while the tariff
program is still incomplete, and SUBJ

the Democratic House caucus, the
situation is becoming better, the
chances for party harmony on a tariff
program are much better than they
were few days ago.

could add nothing to the prison
pallor, which had driven every
particle of color from his
cheeks. Out of these commonplace
details was to come the final trag-

had been fixed to the very hours
that he might live. On the morning
of the 10th of June he would see

urgent affairs of their own on hand,
drifted up from the street, and soon

human grouping with its changing
personnel. Men sprawled on the piles
of boards, or lounged about the yard,
while the murmur of their idle talk
reached him in his cell. The visible
excuse which served to bring them
there was commonplace enough, but
it was invested with the interest of
coming tragedy, and North's own
thoughts went forward to the time
when the fence should be finished,
when somewhere within the space il
inclosed would stand his gallows.
Shortly before the noon whistles
blew two little girls came into the
alley with the carpenters dinner
pals. They made their way timidly
through the crowd, casting shy
glances to the right and left; at a
word from one of the men they placed
the dinner pals beside the pile OF
lumber and hurried away; but at the
street corner they paused, and with
wide eyes stared up in the direction
of North's window.
A moment later the whistles
sounded and the idlers dispersed
while the two mechanics threw dowr
their hammers and took possession
of the lumber pile After they hao

WASHINGTON, April 3.
While the ways and means COM
mittee of the House of Representa-
tives is working fifteen hours trying
to perfect a tariff bill to be offered to
the Democratic caucus for approval
next Tuesday, a number of important
provisions of the bill are still left
open, and may be for several days,
waiting for President Wilson to de-
eide what the administration policy
shall be.
The duty on sugar and the question
of the form in which the income tax
provision shall be written, are held
up pending the presidents decision.
To inquirers today, the president said
he had not yet reached decision on
sugar, that he was trying to obtain
all the information possible on the
subject, and would make up his mind
as quickly as he felt himself suffi-
GENTLY informed.

cided to appoint a committee repre-
senting the several synods which

plan which will be submitted to an
other joint meeting of the pastors.
Those appointed on the committee are
Rev. A. J.. Hulteng. formerly pastor Of
the Zion Lutheran church; Rev. H.
Thorgrimsen Of the First Lutheran
church, Rev. NJ. J. Lohre Of the Trim
ity Lutheran church, Rev. J. M. Per-
senius of the Swedish Lutheran
church, and Rev. Martin HIGHLAND Of
the Zion Lutheran church.
This committee will meet soon and
will formulate plans for. carrying on
the work. The plan will be submit
ted to the joint meeting and the work
taken up in earnest.
