ELRCyTRIo LIGHTS.

The first house lighted by electricity was that of Moses Gerrish Farmer, an American inventor, who was born at Boscawen, N. H., ninety-hve years ago today. English and French scien- lists had geen working on the problem of electric lighting before Farmer be- gan his experiments ,and the new method had been successfully used in English lighthouses. but Farmer was the first to make use of electricity as an i1lunainant in a. private dweIling g house. His system was crude and not adapted to general use, however, and it remained for Thomas A. Ed1- son to put electric lighting on com- mercia1 and practical basis. Farmer also invented an electro-motor which he used on a miniature railway, and on this little line he transp ported by electricity the first passengers ever so carried in America. Farmer also in- vented the telegraph fire alarm, a thermo-electric battery and built the first dynamo. and in 1880 he patented his automatic electric light system. He died in Chicago in 1893.

Mrs. Patrick Campbell. the famous actress, who is forty-eight years old today, has a fondness for soldiers and her second husband, Lieut.-Col Geo Cornwallis West, is now serving at the front. Since last September Col. Cornwallis West has been command ing. one of the battalions of the Roy al Naval Division. He took part in the defense of Antwerp. It was re- ported last month that he had been shot in England as a spy, but this was denied by his solicitors, who stated that he was still at the front, and alive and well. Col CornwaIIis West began his military career with the Scots Guards, and was a suba1tern when British society was startled by Churchill, a daughter of Leonard Jer- PIne of New York. MT. Cornwallis West fought in the South African war, and gained distinction at Magersfon- tein. His marriage to the brilliant and beautiful Lady Churchill was not Churchill secured an absolute. di- vorce. Col. Cornwa1lis West imme- diateIy married Mrs. Patrick Camp bell, the actress.

He served with the Imperial Yoemanry in South Afrd- ca and was killed in action. Col. Cornwallis West comes of a distin- guished family.

A. H. HAWKINS IS
 52 TODAY-HE WROTE
 PRISONER OF NENDA.''

MT. A H. Hawkins, the famous English novelist, author of tfThe Dol ly Dia1ogues,'' ttThe Prisoner, of Zen- da,'' Rupert of Hentzau'' and other wide1y-read novels, will pass his fifty second milestone today You thought Che works mentioned were written by Anthony Hope? Sure-by Anthony Hope Hawkins. For literary pur- poses the celebrated novelist dropped the plebian Hawkins. MT. Hope was the son of a clergyman, and married an American woman, the daughter of Charles H. Sheldon of New York. The author has taken a prominent part in the Belgian relief work, and has been loud in his praise of the fleet of mercy dispatched by the American people to the succor of the starving millions of Belgium. In his investigations he has found that, while Holland. Great Britain and France are caring for many refugees, tn egreat masses of the Belgian pop u1ation are almost solely dependent upon the United States and Canada for sAlvation from famine.
 MT. Hope recently attempted to an swer the question, Why do the Ger mans hate England ?'' He finds the answer in commercial rivalry and in German jealousy of Eng1ands sue cess in empire building. Our cry ing offense'. he says Sis that we have II ing-the rules as they have been evolved by Prussian professors and publicists. We have presumed to be successful on a wrong theory, or without any theory at all. A 1e- mentabIe lack of system has produc- ed a dep1orably successful result-and this is einnoraL' Also we seem to have won our way ton the cheap'-it ought to have cost us more. Our way of leaving things to individual enter prise and using national armed force only in the last resort, is totally op- posed to the Prussian conception of deliberately preparing and organiz- ing a national force to open the path to individual enterprise. The two conceptions of national policy are in so sharp an antagonisn that tu suc- cess of the former is of necessity damaging, if not destructive, criticism Of the latter The success of our overseas empire is a challenge to Prussian tradition And such a challenge is envisaged both as an in suit and as menace. Hence their interest in proving that our way is wrong, and their indignation at the mere idea that it may turn out right, and the British empire no sham after all"
