crat. This is peculiarly an American
product, the Blidden invention having
been first utilized on a large scale by
John w. Gates at St. Louis. The de.

fective use made of this simple inven.
ton, which the late Senator Ingalls,
said was suggested by the manner in

Liahtina Methods Improved.

The great development Of lighting
within the last ten years is made ap-
probable only when the results are
shown in figures. It is well-known
the Introduction of the metal f1lament
lamps has reduced the consump-
ton of current for given amount of
light to one-half or one-third of what
1t was before, but there has been also
a great improvement In the durability
of the new lamp. A French authority,
A. Boutaric, has Investigated the rec
ords of 1924 lamps in 20 establish.
ments. In 1908, only half Of the metal
f1lament lamps withstood as much as
200 hours Of usage, but in 1914 not less
than 90 per cent endured for that
length of time, and the percentage Of
those having a life Of 1000 hours had
risen from 31.5 to 80. Besides their
carbon lrmps. the French were max
ing 3O,OOOOO0 metal filament lamps
yearly as the war began, the prospect
being a large increase on the return
Of peace.

Marooned on IN island.

small island in the ShoshOne river near
Cody, Wyo.. told a weird story Of hav.
ing been marooned for % days on the
island within sight of a wagon road
over which people were constantly
travelling. During this time he said
his only nOuriShment was water.
Grootch said he had been working on
n ranch near Cody and went to Cody
for visit. He set out for walk to-
ward the river when his memory left
him. When he regained consciousness
he found himself on the island, 200
rods below wagon bridge. He could
not swim and ;',e current was too swift
for him to wade. Finally, GroOtch
said. he became SO weak he could not
stand, and lay helpless in the under
brush until a passerby saw him.

WHALERS AGAIN ARE ACTIVE
Ancient Industry Has Undergone Note.
worthy Revival in America in
Last Few Years.

News dispatches telling of the re-
cent capture of three sperm whales
by Grays Harbor hunters serve as q
reminder that the ancient industry of
whaling has undergone a noteworthy
revival in the last few years. It is
an interesting fact that this revival
has been due largely to the develop
ment of the battleship, one of the
most modern creations of man. T.
Hundreds Of whalers from Ameri-
can ports sailed the seas in the times
before, the Civil war, when whale oil
was used for lighting. The discovery
Of petroleum caused slump in the
Industry. Historic New Bedford and
Nantucket became the boneyards of q
once mighty feet, and the race of
hardy American mariners developed
BY whaling became almost extinct.
The old romances passed into tradi-
tion.
r. But as ships, and particularly bat.
deships, grew in size and number it
was found that for use in certain of
the bearings in their ponderous en-
gines there was nothing that would
quite take the place of lease OIL"
found in the head of the sperm whale,
which is strangely clear and does not
disintegrate under great pressure and
heat. So whalers began to take the
sea again. They are not so primitive
as those of the older generation, but
their calgoes are more than ever In
demand.
