.PITTSFIELD, Mass, Jnue 6.-The
greatest amount Of energy ever con-
centrated by human ingenuity-more
than 100000 horsepower-was Gre
ated, toyed with and finally docilely
placed back in it's cradle yesterday
by a single man.
The significance Of the spe ctacular
demonstration was that twice as
much electrical voltage as ever be-
fore was produced and safely han
died. 1t also was made to do the bid
ding Of man operating a small
switch with all the unfathomable
wizardy of a magician bringing rab--

The exact voltage was 100000.

Steinmetz. an electrical expert, Is one
twenty-fifth the power of a bolt Of
The demonstration was made in the
electrical men as the transmission
experimentation center. 1t was In
charge of F. w. Peek, jr.. who d.
rects the high voltage research, and
Giuseppe Faccfoli, a cripple, ch1ef
electrical engineer of the Pittsfleld
works.
Mr.. Faccioli said the layman might
get the same conception of the power
when 1T was realized that the
greatest single amount of electrical
voltage now trasmitted for public
use is 220,000-that in California, Mr..
Peek pointed out that the objective
was to keep research ahead of need
so that when 1t is desirable to carry
2 100000 volts in a wire 1t can be
done.
Model Village Hit BY Ball.
A model village was built and the
transformed into bolt of
lightning was whipped back and forth
and up and down, striking the light
ming arrester Of little church
steeple. The artificial lightning was
shot through realistic clouds which
rolled and thundered while rain they
produced fell in torrents.
The engineers were unable to ex-
plain what the chemical substance
produced when walnut wood, touched
by the great voltage, disappeared
from their sight and left no percept-

THE example set by Fowler in
winning from the worlds
champions is not an unusual
case. That Kind Of thing happens
in world series, and when you
come to look back over the old
times, vow will find that many an
unknown has risen to be heroes
of the series. IF Fowler could
get in the series, there is no tell
ing bNt that he might win one
and maybe two games, and if he
were so fortunate as to connect
in I'LL games, he would stay in the
big leagues for some time. It
would make him. Well. why
doesn't he do this.
We have been playing Kid
Gleason's White Sox recently,
and the Kid says he went in this
year to try his best, but that he
is planning on winning the pen
nant next year sure. We had a
great interview, the Kid and l,
but there was nothing to go with
it. He said.
Another thing, Nick. Look
out for Babe Ruth. He is going
to have his very greatest year
next year. He had bearcat this
year, all excepting in home runs.
But he is going to not only lead
in homers and hitting next year,
but | look for him to lead in
fielding as we'll. He is getting
surer in the field every day"
