Wilkes-Barre, Juno 27. Passengers
on the Wllkes-Barre & Eastern train n,
r.lght or two ngo had a narrow escape.
The train left Jersey City about the
usual time and consisted of a pessen
ger coach and smoker and baggage car
combined. "When coming down tho
Sparta, N. J., mountain, running at a.
speed of fully forty-five miles nil hour,
the driving rod of the engine broke.
Instantly all was confusion. The cars
were well tilled with passengers who
became greatly frightened at the nolso
of esfuplng steam, the thumping of
the broken rod and the clouds of dus.t
that entered the open windows. After
breaking the great driving tod knocked
a hole in the boiler of the locomotive
and tho rush of the escaping steam
added to the consternation of those on
board. Engineer Gould was struck by
the rod nnd rendered unconscious for
Home time. Much damage was done
to the track before the train was
b-ought to a stnndstlll, the broken rod
cutting the ties In two for somo dis

have been dashed down the mountain.
SPENCER AND AUBREY.
Will IIo Sentenced by Judge Bennett
on cdnesduy.
Wilkes-Barre, June 27. A. I,. Spen
cer and Thomas Aubrey, of Scranton,
who were convicted of conspiracy In
Luzerne county In March, will be sen
tenced by Judge Bennett In Wllkes
Bane on "Wednesday next. As soon as
sentence Is pronounced one of the
Judges of the superior court will be ap
plied to for a writ of error, lUid, pend
ing a hearing of the case by the su
perior court, Spencer and Aubrey will
bo released on ball.
The case will bo argued in the su
perior court at the session to be held
In this city In January.
It Is estimated by the Sun that the !
various companies which manufacture
electrical apparatus for purposes out
side of electric light, tho trolley cars,
the telegraph and tho telephone make
nnd sell J20.000.000 worth of goods every
year In this country alone. Electricity
Is so readily put to service whenever It
Is available that It Is becoming a ser
vant in the affairs of dallv life In
many different ways, and so Invidious
ly that people scarcely notice its ap
proaches. Its rivals In the field of dis
tributing power are steam, water un
der pressure, compressed air, gas and
belts nnd shafting. Belts and shafting
and water under pressure can do but
one kind of work, and neither can sup
ply light or heat. Steam may be used
for heating purposes, but It cannot bo
turned Into light, end even Its heating
qualities not much above tho boiling
point of water. Compressed nlr will
do rtfrlgeratlng, but not heating or
lighting, and gas, which gives both
light and heat, cannot be used for tho
production of power except by combus
tion. Incidentally, It may be mention
ed that It has been demonstrated re
cently that for Illuminating purposes
gas can be ustd more economically by
employing It to drlvo a gas engine
coupled to a dynamo and getting tho
light from incandescent electric lamps
than by burning the gas directly for
lighting purposes.
Even If steam, air, water, and gas
each cr.mblned the qualities of produc
ing at will light, heat, and power,
electricity would still have vast advan
tages over them all, because the trans
formations can ba made In Its current
more readily and Its conveyance Is ac
complished by simpler means. A fam
iliar exemplar of 'his is the electrical
door bell. You can buy a complete bell
outfit for 89 cents and set It up your
self. Think of trying to utilize gas or
water or Lteam to drive the cooling
fan In a lady's boudoir or her husband's
olllce. No doubt It could have been
done, but the nolso and oil and smell
would soon have doomed any attempt
to utilize one of thesa forces. Now It
requires but a flexible wire cord for
connections; the fan can be changed
fiom room to room by merely un
screwing a lamp and slipping In Us
place the end of the cord, and th
noiseless motor goe3 or stops In an
swer to the turn of a button.

be heated again to bring forth a fresh
iron from the furnace. In later times
In canning factories and BUch places
naptha or gas furnaces have replaced
the old charcoal llres, but still the tin
ner has had to work with a number of
Irons to keep busy, and these were of
ten too cool or else so hot that the tin
was burned off. With the electric, sol
derlng iron the furnace Is done away
with entirely and the Irons are always
at Just the right heat to do their work
wire cords running to the end of the
handles and a Jacket over the copper
head, they appear like the ordinary
soldering lrpn. Within the Jacket lies
concealed a coat of wire and this sup
plies the needed heat. In all the big
electrical works all the soldering is
done by means of these Irons.
A10NR0E COUNTY PATRIOTS.
CHANGED THE RULES.
Monroe County Republicans Adopt
the Crnwford County System.
Stroudsburg, June 27. The Republi
can county convention was called to
order yesterday afternoon by County
Chairman Dr. Thomas C. Walton. The
meeting was largely attended. There
was an exciting contest over the adop
tion of the new rules between the
Quay men and tho nntl-Quny men. The
Quay men were led In the fight by
County Chairman Walton and ex
County Commissioner John T Palmer.
The anti-Quay men were tinder the
leadership of ex-County Chairman A.
C. Janben, Theodore C. Brown nnd
Samuel V. Docher. George W. Mere
dith was elected president of the con
vention and T. C. Brown and Stewart
Blttenberder, of StormsvlJIe, secre
taries. Dr. Walton, the county chairman,
made a speech thanking those present
for the royal support they had given
him during the past sixteen years
which he had served as county chair
man and declining a renomlnatlon.
This withdrawal of Walton was fol
lowed by the election of Bobert Brown,
a Quay man, to the place.
The fight over the new rules for a
while was very hot. There was no
.scilous objection to them by the Quay
men, but they strongly nnd earnestly
opposed the election of the county
chairman by the county committee.
In this they gained their point, and a
substitute that was offered by the
Quay men to elect the county chair
man at the primaries was carried.
The other proposed new rules were
adopted. They are similar to tho
Crawford county system of nominat
ing delegates which was adopted by the
Democrats of Monroe.

"Here's your white sand, black sand,
White sand.
White sand nnd black sand,
Now here's youi white sand.
Black sand m-a-n!"
Such neio the woida sung by the
melodious voices of a few tobust col
ored men thiough the stieets ol Wash
ington half n century ngo says the
Star of that city, but the sand man and
his business have entirely disappeared
for no longer the market exists for
thu material. The white sand was
then used fov scrubbing purposes and
sanding floors, and the black sand for
use on manuscript to dry the Ink.
While large quantities were used In
the departments, many stores and of
fices, as well as families, were the con
sumers, and in some ramuies sanu
boxes are handed down to the grand
children to remind them of the days
of the old quill pen. These men,
with horse and cart, would early In tho
morning appear with a few bushels of
white sand, and possibly a peck of the
black material, and for a few hours
they would cry It through the streets,
selling by the peck, quart and pint
a levy (1214 cents) per quart for the
whits and often 25 cents per pint for
the black. Now scrubbing soap has
nlmost entirely superceded the white

SHE GUAPl'LBD Till: SI'lUIT.
An Indiana Womim Wanted to Test
the llcnllsnt nnd Wns Injured.
La (Jrango Indiana Dispatch: The
town of Wakarusa, Elkhart county,
has been wrought up to a high state
of excitement over tho performances
of the spiritualists in their materializ
ing seances. Many people have been
converted.
Joseph King, who has a reputation
as a medium throughtout Indiana,
Michigan and Illinois, was invited to
the town to lecture on spiritualism. Ho
gave n seance, which was attended by
Mrs. Corfeen.a prominent society wom
an. Relatives of Mr.Coffeen appeared
In the spirits, and shedctermlnedto as
certain the realism of tho spirts. She
grappled with the spirit, and In the tu
multuous scene which folowed one of
her wrists wero dislocated.
It Is alleged that King, who was the
materializing spirit, used force to com
pel Mrs. Cofteen to release her grasp on
him.
Decs a woman wish to curl her hair?
There are curling-iron heaters mads
which are as easy to connect nnd
manage as the electric fan, and far
handler and neater than one on a gas
Jet. She sits at ense in front of her
dressing class and the heater stands
on her drepslng case wherever It Is best
at hand. There Is no flame. The wires
run to n convenient electric lamp soc
ket and tho current comes down
through them and turns to a red heat
a coll of German sliver wire concealed
within the heater's case. The lady
slips her curllrg Iron within this coll
and heats It quickly and evenly and
without a possibility of smoking It.
Tha electrician has more clever de
vices for a woman's use. Does she
want a cup of tea' For three or four
dollars she can buy an electric stove
which she can use as handily as she
did tho cutllng-lron heater, taking the
current for It from a lamp socket. It
will be about six Inches across and
capable of boiling tho tea kettle or
coffee pot, making a stow, a fry, or a
Welsh rabbit, or In fact performing
any work that might be clone over the
tlame of a chafing dish. In the sewing
room shs can have the sewing machine
run by an electric motor and an elec
trically heated sadiron to smooth out
seams, flatten bindings, ana do the
many like services required in dress
making, and she may sit with her feet
on an electric foot wanner, or even
take It to bed with her. For the sick
room she can buv an electric heating
pad to be used ns a substitute for a
hot water bag or bottle, and ever so
much better. These are very cleverly
made of asbestos or other suitable ma
terial, and they take their current from
the ever ready electric light socket. By
means of a switch the nurse can fit
the temperature of the pad at any one
cf three points, and so long as the cm
rent remains on, the pad will never get
either hotter or colder. For the kitchen
entire electric cooking outfits may be
had but the day for these has not ar
rived yt, although It Is claimed that,
eorsidcrlng the great economy with
which heat Is utilized In them, all sorts
of cooking, except boiling, can be done
with them at as low a cost as with coal
or gas.

While a woman Is thus served by
electricity at heme, her husband Is
benefiting by It elsewhere. The car
that takes him to his olllce Is driven by
It, and he lights his cigar at an elec
tric torch before he goes to his desk.
Push buttons about his desk call his
clerks and messengers, tho telephone
stands ready at hand for him to trans
act business with peopls afar off, and
electric fans keep him cool. There
are big celling fans at the restaurant
where ho lunches, which not only cool
the customers but also drive away the
flics. If he started out with his last
rummer's straw hat on ho may sur
prise his wife on his return by show
ing it to her revived In all it pristine
glory at a 25-oent-clean-your-hat-
whlle-you-walt place, where such
good and rajild work Is made possi
ble only becausa of electricity. After
tho ooerator washed tha hat with a
cleaslng and bleaching compound hu
put It on a form, where an electric mo
tor turned It about thousands of times
a minute and bent the fluid flying out
of It In a spray. Then he pressed It
with an Iron heated either by gas or
electricity, and finished drying it be
fore an electric fan.
Before the man goes home, If he Is In
a good humor, he may buy an electric
railway for the children, for there Is
such a toy In the maket. It consists of
a circular railway with a train of cars
that run around it, driven by a cur
rent which Is taken from a battery. In
fact this same Idea has been used
to facilitate table service. A circular
railway is hung above the dinner table,
a little back torn the edge of the table.
On this runs a car which each person
can control by a push button at his
place. If he presses the button the car
comes and stops In front of him. Then
ho can put his own plate on a serving
dish upon the car and have it carried
along to the server or any other per
son. Such are some of the minor uses of
electricity In every day life which have
already been adopted In many parts of
the country, lint the more Important
field In which the smaller electric de
vices are forcing their way Is the work
shop. Ope of the cleverest and most
useful of the new electrical tools 1b tho
soldering Iron. Kvery one has seen a
tinner at work with his furnaco and
Irons. Ho would work a little while and
then poke tho Iron back Into the char-
Many factories are not only supplied
with n great variety of special electric
tools, but also use electric motors for
the direct driving of nearly all their
machinery. A notable example of this
Is a new shirt factory. Beyond the
work of heating, which Is done by
waste straw, the whole place Is run
and heated by electricity. The sewing
machines are worked and heated by It,
and all the flatlrons are electrical.
One of the most potent advantages
claimed for the electrical sad Iron and
tailor's goose Is that no heat Is wasted
and the Iron can never do any harm If
left standing. The grasping of the han
dle In most makes puts on the current,
nnd the Iron heats up; and the current
Is cut oft and the Iron begins to cool the
moment you let go of It. The owners
of the factory declare that electricity
Is away ahead of other power, being
more cleanly, less noisy, and more sat
isfactory In every way.
Tiffany & Co.'s great silverware fac
tory at Forest Hill, N. J., depends en
tirely upon electric motors to drive
the machines which are used In each
department. In place a visitor may
see delicate drills and polishing wheels
running by electricity, nnd In another
tho same power operates a hydraulic
press capable of exerting a pressure
of 1,000 tons, while In another room the
same current Is electro-plating and
gliding, Out nt North Tonawanda,
near Niagara Falls, Is a great bolt and
nut factory In which every machine Is
driven by electricity. Here big motors
run great lines of shafting, and these
In turn 'drive tho machines which
transform the ryw bars of steel or Iron
Into finished bolts and nuts. The same
work could undoubtedly be done with
economy by steam engines. The Inten
tion to use electric power from Nla-.
gara Falls might explain the Installa
tion here; but there are many other
factories where no such reason would
hold. Yet there are other good rea
sons for doing It. One of these Is econ
omy In room. In the nut and bolt fac
tories the motors aie carried on plat
forms hung from the roof rafters over
the heads of the workmen, and above
all the machinery on the floor, and this
Is done In many other places. A steam
engine could not be treated so, nor
would It be handy to have It In such
a position, for steam engines require
constant attention. Not so with the
electric motors. They are made for
the roughest uses and the "greatest
exposures, and cast In dust-proof and
water-proof- covers, they defy every
thing. In the bolt and nut factory the
only attention they require is to be
oiled, and this Is attended to by filling
the oil wells once In every six months.
Besides running the fixed machines
In factories and shops the handlness
with which n current can be conducted,
has made electricity a favorite for driv
ing tools which are used about the
floor or in yards, such as drills,
punches, shears nnd small preshes
One of the handy tools of this sort
has the electric motor on wheels and
a flexible tjhaft running from the mo
tor to drive the tools.
In textile factories the electric motor
Is making Its way rapidly for driving
looms, spindles, and carding machines,
and for printing presses they have no
rival for efficiency and ense of control.
Another of their very Important uses
Is the driving of pumps. For this pur
pose they are made of all sizes from
that required for the little house pump,
which would run with nn electric light
currcn, to tremendous mnchlnes adapt
ed to pumping the whole water supply
of .a city. There arc a dozen titles In
this country which pump their town
water into the mains by electricity.
Then there are motors and pumps
meant for the rough work of sinking
mines or keeping them clear of water
and others for pumping water, stone,
sand, coal or grain through centrifugal
pumps, such as are used for dredging.
Everywhere that one sees the electric
motor applied It becomes apparent
that no other motor could compete with
It for economy of space and tho ease
with which power can be carried to It,
and there are many situations where
these quantities make It possible to be
used when all other powers would be
out of the question. With all of these
advantages It has one other, which Is
of vital Importance. This Is economy
In the use of power. A good motor will
return In actual work more than 93
per cent, of the energy that reaches It,
while no engine driven by other powers
will approach this figure.
