II is claimed By Dickerson that the

the acid proof ink claimed II was
non erasable. i such claim can be
proved. il is not borne out by tests
made with the ink.
The ink is acid proof. but il is not
non erasable, according 70 Mr.. Turner.
Tests 10 remove the ink were made
with hydrochlo-ic, oyolic, acetic. nitric,
and tannic acid. and none OF them
would touch the ink.
However. the use Of potassium by

The telephone wire had fallen across
the light wire and then trailed on the
ground. When Brown tapped 1t with

In falling he fell on the wire. The
shock from the pliers badly burned

struggling on the ground he fortunate

even worse injury.
Schneider was fearful Of helping
Brown lest he tSchneider.) should be

short time to go to a doctors office to
have his burns dressed. and was able
to be about this morning. aitho his in

AN ELECTRICAL
DEMONSTRATION
Cullo Nhee, August l.

NdliO NAiSN, 1AuSuCI L.
On Friday night, the oath, we
had at the auditorium a very re-
markable entertainment and lecture
given by one of the Cullowhee stu
dents. Geo. c. Cox, of Cullowhee. 1t
was remarkable in that he had
made every one of the instruments
himself, and seemed to understand
thoroughly the principles and theo-
ries on which they worked.
The entertainment was opened
by a talk on the wonders of this
great force of nature; then followed
the display of vacuum tubes which
was very beautiful, showing the va
rious flame discharges through the
different gases. Concluding the en-
tertainment was the demonstration
of the High Frequency Current"
which consisted in passing the light
ing current through two of the coils
and which was discharged under a
tension of millions of volts. From
all the metal parts of the coil could
be seen the discharge of Electricity
into the air similar to the lightning
discharge which showed the high
voltage of the current. He then
allowed this high current to pass
through his body, discharging
through glass tube he held in his
hand Another interesting expert
ment was that Of lighting brightly
by High Frequency Current, an in,
candeScant electric lamp which
was short circuited by large piece
of copper wire in the shape of a
ring and which had no connection
to any part of his instruments.
He also expected to demonstrate
the wireless control in which sever
al devices were to be controlled by
wireless. but as he failed to com
plete a necessary instrument to be
used in its operation on account OF
the short time in which he made
all his instruments used in his dem
OnStrationS, which was two weeks
the wireless control was not dem
onStrated as intended 1t is very
remarkable what this young electri-
cal experimenter has done. His in
Struments are carefully and beauti-
fully made, and he has remarka-
bic future before him.
