Tse Won km en employed to raise
the roof of the Ansonta (Conn.) elec
tric car sheds suffered a strange exper
ience a few days ago that was unplea
sant but harmless, a guy rope connec
ted with a derrick became in some way
connected with an electric current,
which, as the rope was damp, was
readilv conducted away. As a result
ot this when one employe climbed a
ladder and grasped an iron rod he
screamed with pain, and shortly after
when another one picked up a hammer
he oulcklv droDred it. It was soon
learned that nearly everything in the
establishment was charged, and the
derrick had to le taken down before
wotk could be continued.
Pit. nsr.L. or Taris, is said to

subjects by means of the phonograph.
AII the commands given through this
channel were, he declares, as readily
obeyed as those which he uttered di
rectly, and "suggestions" of every pos
sible sort were as effectually commu
nicated through tbe medium or ine
machine as If made vica roce. The
conclusion which Mr. Flnel deduces
from his experiments is that the re
ceived theory ot a magnetic current
passing from the operator to the sub
ject Is entirely baseless, and that the
real cause of the phenomena of hyp
notism Is nervous derangement on the

of natural gas as a fuel without having
an adequate idea of its importance. It
Is to-day the greatest commercial won
der of the age. No one can ponder
over the following figures without Deing
deeply impressed: It is over 13 years
ago, says the editor or Stov$ and
J.tr.firare, published at St. Louis, that
natural gas was first used as a fuel;
yet to-day there Is lequired to pipe It
27,350 miles ot mains. In Tlttaburg
ulone 300 miles supply 42.693 private
houses, 40 iron mills, 37 glass works.
63 foundries and machine shops, and
4.22 miscellaneous industrial estahlisn
ments. An idea of its Talue as a fuel
can bet be obtained when the value
of 7.000.000 tons of coal is estimated,
as it Is asserted that this amount of
coal is annually displaced by natural
gas. An I lea ot the effect a retarded
production has in advancing prices can
be st en in the shut-down movement In
oil production. This commenced in
earnest Jut about a year ago, and tbe
following Is the result: In lsao. wneu
no attempt was made to lessen produc
tion, the average run from wells was
70.C60 barrels per day. In 1887, when
there was less than two months' organ
ised effort In this direction, tbe average
!ai:y run was 63,543 barrels. In 10
months of 15S7, ending November 1,
when the movement was on foot in
earnest, it was leas than 44,000 barrels
per day. The average prices of certifl
ctes for the first 10 months of 1387
was 641 cents, for the first 10 months
ot 1SS8 it was 87 cents, an increase la
Tal is of 34 per cent.

The old man's evident agitation as

raul into instant action, ana supping
bis feet into a pair of slippers, and
throwing a dressing-gown around him,
he ran down stairs ahead of the butler
with an acute feeling of apprehension
which made htm catch bis breath as

To nolnt out the importance, triues

seems, bad not only contemptuously

Paul's phrase almost superseded, was
furious, and carefully entered the
young man's name in a little volume,

which his enemies declared wanted bnt
the insertion of the word 'mail' to
make it perfectly applicable. Then A.
Jabex Tuttle walled, and when he

knew his chance for revenge bad prob
ably come, and be was the further
spurred on to make matters disagree
able when he discovered that Harold
Proudfoot was doing all in bis powe r
to induce his brother city editors to
treat the case with reticent discretion.
Tuttle hated Proudfoot as be did every
rising young man, and more particu
larly as Proudfoot occupied the very
nositlon which, in bis better and more
reputable days, be himself bad once
occirpted. So the Chicago Spy began
lo publish decidedly cleverly written

spondent on what be termed the "Mys
terious murder of Washingroa Square."
No one ever aouDtea xutiie s clever
ness; it was only his honesty that was
called in question, and the article soon
attracted the attention of New York
editors. Day by day he mouse! out
some new fact or "clue," as be called
it. and day by day it began to grow
apparent that in some way Paul Harley
was implicated in the murder. There
was the testimony of the park police
man as to the finding of the signet ring

and his account of the dispute heard
through the partly opened window
shortly after Paul entered the bouse.
There was a story skilfully extracted
from old Isaac about the terrible quar

o'clock in the morning. Still a motive
seemed to be absent, and though Har
old S good omces in nia irieuu ucumi
were no longer able to keep constant
reference to tbe affair out of the New
York papers, nothing might have been
heard of it after the frequently ad
nnrned vroner's inauest was ended
had not Tuttle made a startling discov
ery. In some way ne iouna out tuat u
hour or two after the quarrel between
Mr. Warren and raul, the former
went down town to bis lawyer and gave
bim instructions to draught a codicil
to bis will, revoking all bequests to his
nephew. This clinched the matter; the
New York papers iook up tue -i

notoriety-seeking little beery coroner,

Paul was sitting in the prisoner's dock

The period between bis committal by
the coroner and his appearance before
the jury was one of almost unmitigated
horror, the only relief, in fact, being
ih. almost eonatant presence of Harold
Proudfoot ana ueien, tue latter ui
whom had thrown all reserve aside and
boldly avowed her love for Paul aud
ber perfect confidence In bim and
belief in bis innocence. Her brother
secured a leave of absence from his
editorial duties and gave himself up to
the task of proving his friend's inno
cence, finding ft much more difficult
than be bad at first supposed. He had
opposed to bim an enemy who brought
to the COnQICt years Ot eaperieuce nuu
brains which, had be also possessed a
grain of moral principle, would have
placed bim at the head of the journalis
tic profession. Tuttle, ot course, had
a double object In fastening the crime
on Paul, for not only would his desire
for revenge be satisuea in sucn a case,
bat he would reap direct pecuniary
advantage by reason ot the increased
market his "copy" would command
owing to his connection with the case.
Every little fast which could be twisted
to tell against Paul was lerreteu out.

Harold worked hard and manfully, but
the case seemed bopeiess unui one uay
about a week before tbe trial. He
spent tbe afternoon sitting In the room
in which the crime had been commit
ted, trying to reconcile his own theory
of an interrupted burglary ending in
murder and the sadden flight ot tbe
robbev, with tbe known fact and the
position ot the room. He sat there,
into a chair by the pina work-table in a
fit of abstracted musintr. Halt an hour
later he left the bouse, wbich was in
old Isaac's care pending the result of
the trial with a. lurht in his eves and a
smile on bis lips such as had not been

on, sat with a look of puzzled appre
hension on bis wrinkled face, rendered
almost ludricrous by the flaps of black
rubber which covered his ears, 'i'oor

forced bis hands down. The look of

but again the doctor grasped his arms
