The year 1906 has been distinguish ed for performances In mountain climbing. The Duke of Abruzzl, whose ascent of ML St. Ellas has. been eclipsed on the North American con tinent by Dr. Cook's more recent feat, succeeded lost June in surmounting the second highest (19,024) summit of the Ruwenzori range in central Afri ca. The highest summit (Mt. Kibo) of this range being 19,912. But the achievement of Dr. and Mrs. William B. Workman last August over-shadows that of the Italian duke In Afri ca, for they succeeded in climbing to 23,394 feet on the peak of the Chago Lungma glacier in the Himalayas. This, I believe, Is a record in height; though by no means so difficult an undertaking as McKinley. The Work mans camped for two nights at 21, 000 feot, which becomes also a rec ord for a mountaineer's camp. Thus, the mountain climbing honors of 1906 may bo said to justly belong to America, for Dr. and Mrs. Workman and Dr. Cook are Americans. Outing Magazine. LUMBAGO 1 AND SCIATICA ST.

How many out of the thousands who ride in trolley cars understand the mechanism which moves these vehicles? Only a few, we suspect, are familiar with the form of the ap paratus which serves them, or the principles Involved In its operation. An electric motor consists essen tially of two parts. The outer one, A Common Form of Motor. which is stationary, is composed of electro magnets. The central part, known as the armature, is round, like a drum, and rotates. Being mounted on the car axle, the revo lution of the armature propels the car itself. An electro-magnet is a bar of soft Iron surrounded by a coil of copper wire, through which an electric cur rent runs. It behaves like any other magnet so long as the flow continues, but loses It properties when the cur rent is shut off. Just as with the common needle, there Is a north and south pole to an electro-magnet, the polarity depending on the direction In which the electric current flows around It For certain work that is done by electro-magnets say, in telegraphy it is usual to put two such objects side by side, the north pole of one pointing the same way as the south pole of the other. For other work they are placed end to end except for a gap between. The north pole of one then points directly toward the south pole of the other. This is the plan followed in the ar rangement nf an electric motor. The latter may be composed of two or more magnets, and the gap between them sometimes called the "field" is barely big enough to accommo date the armature. If one could examine an armature, he would see that it was composed largely of copper wires. These are wound on a ring-shaped frame, which forms the outer part of the armature. At intervals they reach down to the axle, something like the One Style of Electro Magnet. spokes of a wheel. An ingenious but simple device makes it possible to lead electricity from the vicinity of the axle into the wires. When the motorman admits the current to the machinery, part flows Into the colls around the magnets and energizes them. Part goes Into the armature. It Is the strange Influence exerted by the electricity in those portions of the armature wire furthest from the axle and closest to the poles of the magnets which does the work. The most familiar magnetic phe nomenon is attraction. Repulsion is equally characteristic and potent Like attraction repulsion is mani fested exclusively at the poles of a magnet, the vicinity of which Is known as its "field." One illustra tion of repulsion Is found In the be havior of iron filings that have at tached themselves to the end of a bar magnet, If these are sufficiently thread-like. They cling to the mag net, but their outer ends diverge from each other. For the time being each thread is a true magnet. It the outer extremity of one Is a north pole the outer extremity of the other will be a north pole, too. Now, any ISM Hints of Armature and Magnets. magnetic pole attracts one of the op posite kinds, but repels one of the same kind. A different, more obscure, bnt gen uine instance of repulsion was dis covered by a Danish Investigator, Oersted, in 1819. He found that if he neld a wire which was not electri fied directly above and parallel with a magnetic needle In the position shown by an admirable drawing found In Silvanus Thompson's "Elec tricity and Magnetism" nothing would happen, but when an electric current was admitted to the wire, the needle would swing around until It was at a right angle with the wire. The theory adopted to explain this effect Is that a wire carrying a cur rent acquires certain magnetic quali ties. One way to prove the fact Is to try the following experiment: On a horizontal glass plate scatter Iron filings. Through a hole In the cen tre run a wire. Before admitting any current, tap the plate gently for test purposes. The filings will not then arrange themselves iu any particu lar order. Turn on the current. Jar the plate to facilitate readjustment, and the filings will then form tiny concentric circles around the wire. This result shows that there is a re gion of influence lying Just outside the wire, while it is a conductor, and Oersted's discovery indicates that the influence is of such a nature as to Interfere with the magnetism of the needle. One repels the other, Just as one magnet In a certain position would repel another magnet. While the wire is not the same kind of mag net the student is accustomed to, It Is enough of one to conform to the law of repulsion. In the Danish in vestigator's experiment, the wire is held fast and the needle is mounted so as to movo freely. It is the latter which changes Its position, therefore. Of course, if It were possible to have the wire easily movable and yet con duct a current, and if tho magnet were filed, then the wire might be expected to yield. Here is another experiment which confirms that suspicion, and which relates a little more closely to the construction of a motor. Lay an electro-magnet down on its side, or, what is better, lay two in a horizontal position, in line with each other. Aim the north pole of one directly at the south pole of the other. Leave Oersted's Experiment. a short gnp between them. Arrange a single horizontal wire at right an gles to them In the gap In such a way that it can easily rise or fall without losing Its connections. So long as no current flows In it there will be no difficulty in making it stay At any desired level. Now send a current through It, and it will move bodily either up or down, the direc tion depending on that of the elec tricity. The effect here is not ex actly the same as in the needle ex periment, but it is interpreted as a modified form of repulsion. An in terference occurs between the Invisi ble magnetic envelope of the wire and the unseen force emanating from the poles of the magnets. Relief can be obtained only by one getting out of the way of the other. Motion is possible only in the wire, and this Is thrust upward or downward. Now, mount a lot of wires cross wise on the circumference of a wheel, provide means for letting an electric current Into them, and suspend the wheel between the poles of two or more magnets, and you have the arm ature of a motor. Each wire In turn undergoes a downward push, and a succession of these impulses makes the wheel revolve with enough force to do a vast amount of work all In consequence of a skilful adaptation of magneltc repulsion. An electric motor is a machine for converting electricty into mechanical power. A dynamo converts mechan ical power Into electricity. The axle of a dynamo is made to revolve by a steam engine or water wheel, and1 that rotation generates electricity. The motor and dynamo are almost Identical in form, latter, like the former, being composed of stationary magnets and an armature. The principles of which use Is made in a dynamo was discovered by Faraday. He found ?at if a wire was moved In a certain ishion oppo site the end of a magnet, electricity would be excited in the wire. The cross wires on the drum-shaped armature of a dynamo conform to his requirements when the armature re volves. The current excited In each of them Is led down toward the axle, where it is collected by mechanism which does not Impede rotation, and is led off for use elsewhere. For an electric railway the cur rent is supplied by an overhead wire, and is taken off by the grooved wheel and pole. All electric service calls for a continuous route from the power station out to the scene of action. Accordingly, after it has done Its work in an electric motor under a car the current Is led back to the central station by the rails on which the cars run. The "controller," out on the front platform, corresponds to the throttle valve of a locomotive. The power must go through that device before it can get into the motor. Inside of the controller are provided several paths for the current, each offering a different degree of resistance to the Bow. As the motorman shifts his lever, connections are changed from one path to another. The paths are so graduated thrt as the lever goes from one notch to the next the re sistance diminishes. At the last one, there is no hindrance. At the first there Is a great deal. New York Tribune. That Family Always Famous.

Government Feared Americans Would Get Railroads. Mexico's government has made ar rangements to become the owner of the principal railroads of the coun try not heretofore public property. The government has for some time owned several railroads, but those now acquired will vastly Increase its holdings, and In fact practically abol ish private ownership of this means of transportation In the republic. Minister of Finance LImantour, in ex plaining to the Mexican congress the reasons which prompted the govern ment to consummate the great rail road merger by which the republic comes Into possession of the two great trunk lines of the country, to gether with thousands of miles of subsidiary lines, said that if this de fensive action had not been taken by Mexico, some of tho great railway systems of the United States would have entered the republic and swal lowed Its transportation facilities. The minister further declared that the government was first forced to go into the railroad business In 1903, when it purchased the National rail road to prevent it being merged with the Central.
