New Light on Electricity. Attention was recently called In this column to the remarkable obser vations of Professor Nlpher of St Louis on the property of an electrle current, when passing round a sharp corner, of apparently projecting a dis charge along its original line of mo tion. More recently Professor Can tor of Wurzburg has Independently observed the same phenomenon, and now Prof. Silyanus P. Thompson de clares tl at thlB seems to be evidence of the existence of a true electric momentum. re?emblins that of water "owing tn a pipe. Faraday tied thc-.iht of tiio possibility of such a h!ns. but his experiments led him to cm lude p?a!nst its existence. Cleric Vasws'.l afterward raised the que ion again, and also decided It In the ii-iptlve. But Professor Thompson oi'i's m l that the phenomenon is tn sroord with the most recent theory of tl:e ".tonic nature of electricity, which 'ird not been worked out In Maxwell' Iny, at any rate, says Professor Thorn rson. we have here a newly ac quired fact about electricity, whatever lie ultimate explanation of it may b.

Roosevelt wore a black rough rider hat and Hill had one of his peculiar skyptecea. "Senator,' said Roosevelt, "you should wear a hat like this one that I have on. They are much easier on the head, preserve the hair aud axe altogether better than silk ones." Mr. Hill looked at the coming Vice President "My dear air," he said, "I haven't worn a hat like that since I went out of the ahow business." Cornered. Five youug men weut into a shop recently to buy a hat each. Seeing they were In a Joking mood, the shop- muu said: "Are you married" They each said "Yes." "Then I'll give a hat to the one who can truthfully say he has not kissed any oilier woman but his own wife irjre he was married." "Hand over that hat," said one of the party. "I've won it." "When were you married?" "Yesterday," was the reply, and the hat was handed over. One of the others waa laughing heartily while telling his wife the Joke, but suddenly pulled up when ike said: "I say, John, how was It you didn't bring one?" The Artistic Nature.
