/ Thom who will .llrst discover and
’ apply the hidden powers of the air,
the water and the sunshine will open
the way to the colossal fortunes of
the next few centuries. Land, timber.
metals and jewels have given their mil-
lions of dollars, but the energies of
the air, the sunshine and the water.
awaiting the inventive geniuses of the
More, promisougroater financial possi-
bilities than all of these.

There is no question but that elcc-
tricity is the-greatest power in the
world and it is still in its infancy. The
engineering problem of today is how
to develop this electrical current in the
e siest and most economical manner.

A. is estimated that throughout. the .

world about 2,000,000 electrical horse-
power is being generated from water-
falls and streams. One-quarter of this
great. horsepower is generated in the
United States, with Canada second and
Switzerland third.

To generate 2,000,000 horsepower
continually by¢che ordinary steam en-
tine would require some 25,000,000
tons of coul,’ and allowing $5 a ton
for the cost of the goal this would rep-
resent a asvlngfhr $125,000,000.

Situated' in this country there are
thousands of,streams capable of pro-
ducing from 100 to 50,000 or more
horsepower. Others, like Niagara, and
Victoria Falls in'Bouth Africa, and the
innumerable falls of the Mississippi.
the Colorado and lhe'Missouri, have
water powereubat seem unlimited. If
every part of the mighty torrent of
Niagara was harnessed it would easiv
lyi generate suflicient electrical power
in do all the work of this country.

The value of a stream for power
purposes depends upon the amount oi
water flowing and slij) upon its head;
that is, the heighhl'bf'the fail. whether
in a sudden drop or rushing down a
slope. The small mountain stream
,w which tumbles noisily down the rocks
' is often worth more than the broad.
sluggish river flowing through a low
country. One cubic foot of water a
second may equal in power the total
stored energy of many tons of coal.
What is even mere wonderful. the
,water may be used twice; first, for
5 [chanting electrical power; second, to
“frigate farm lands in dry countries.
With the electrical pump the stream it;
be" can bepumped to levels where
(ordinary ditches could not carry it.
Electricity can be made to light and
heat the homes in the country as well
: as in the city and to run feed cutters,
threshers and cream separators on the
farm, as well as the wheels of the
cars and factories.

, The wind was the first of the ole-
mcnts to be harnessed. Previous to
“ this the treadmill was the only form
. of mechanical power. A windmill for

the generation of electrical current is

a more recent accomplishment. Dr.

Charles F. Brush, the inventor of the
, are light, in 1889, first; utilized the
windmill to run his" generators at
_ Cleveland. Ohio, for the purpose of
lighting his house and. laboratories.

Bridgeport Attorney Suffered
o Nervous Breakdown Linnl
Fall from Overwork ,

Howard ll. Knapp, son of James H.
Knapp. of South Norwalk. and one of
the leaders of the Faitfielii county bar
and a man well known throughout the
state, is now in a private sanitarium
not far from New York, recovering!
from the nervous breakdown he has I
last fall on account of overwork. From
information received onlyyesterday by
his friends and family ‘lt is learned
that he is in a. fair way to be restored
to health so that he may [losslbly be
able to resume his practice next fall.
it is now expected that he will be able
to leave the sanitarium in a few weeks
so that he may spend the summer with
his family in the country.

Early in January Mr. Knapp went
to Augusta. Ga. to recover from his
nervous breakdown. its had been
working so hard that he had reached
sut'h a condition that he could not
sleep. Accordingly a change of scene
and a complete rest was prescribed for
him.

At first he appeared to gain and was
apparently getting well when early ill
April he received a slight sunstroke or
something of that nature, thought to
be due to over exertion in playing golf

in the hot Southern sun which put

him far back and it was deemed advi-
sable to place him In a sanitarlum
which was done.

Annoying rumors have been circulat-
ed to the effect that he was a complete
mental wreck, which is stated to be
not the case. ills sickness is of such
a nature that rapid recovery is not
possible. _

Mr. Knapp is a leading member of
the University Club. He has not
been at his office since the first week
in January. Mr. Knapp is possessed
of a splendid physique, be having been
a member of one of the best football
teams ever turned out by Yale. As an
attorney he is held in high regard by
his fellow members of the bar not only
in r‘nirfield county but elsewhere in
the state.

His friends will be cheered by this
news and will hope for his speedy reco-
very.

LAKE MOHONK CONFERENCE.
Spread of Propaganda of Peace by
Toochlng Pupils.

LAKE MOHONK, N. Y.. May 23,——
Today‘s session of the Lake Mohonk
Conference on International Arbitra-
tion was devoted exclusively to the
consideration of methods of spreading
the propaganda of peace by teaching
pupils of the public schools and stu-
dents of the colleges. Addresses on
this subject were delivered by Elmer
E. Brown. United States commissioner
of education: Andrew B. Draper. com-
missioner of education of New York
state; President Charles F. 'l‘hwing. of
the Western Reserve University;
President Rush Rhees. of Rochester
University; Prof. Joseph . Beale, Jr.,
of Hartford; Prof. W. Wt, loughby,
of Johns Hopkins University, nd Prof.
Elbert Russell, of Earlham College,

Richmond. .

Commissioner llrown recommended
that the date of the opening of the
first lingue Peace Conference, May 18,
be annually commemorated in the pub-
lic schools. (knnmlsaionor Draper,
however, declared that it is not the
business of the schools to promote
special causes.

President Thwing said the colleges
promote arbitration by training men
in self-restraint. President Rhees
said the colleges should train their stu-
dents to analyze issues and to decide
them in a spirit of justice. Professors

CAPTAIN SMOKE RESIGNS.
NEW HAVEN, May 23.——With the
announcement that Capt. S. A. Smoke,
U. S. A. (retired) had resigned as man.
ager of the dining hall at ‘Yale,
a statement is given out covering the
financial side of the administration of
the department, in which it is shown
that the reason for increase in board
which had caused some of the students
to take their meals elsewhere. is that
the fixed charge of $3 a man per week
is not sufficient to meet all the expen~
see. The increase is 25 cents a week.
it is stated that with scarcely an ex-
ception every article of food has risen
in price the last year, the average
increase being about 12 per cent.

FASHION! AND CULINARY.
WRINKLES.

 

Pipings of gold tissue about. lace
yoke edges and cuffs of a black rc-
ccption gown are an acceptable mode
of introducing the still beloved hint of
gold now and then.

One huge deep red rose nestling
among several immensely full and
thick ostrich plumes is the solo varia-
tion from clear pale blue on one beau-
tiful but of the season's output. Such
a hat is almost as useful as all white
or all black for one’s best but which
must do service with several cos
fumes.

When the young daughter of the
ilOllst‘ begins to make the small acces-
sories of the costume for herself. it
is a good plan to help her to select
something that will make good prog-
ress under her somewhat unskilful
fingers, and 'also look well enough to
bo wearable after completion; to all
such requirements the useful eyelet

 

 

embroidery often comes into play, in
the guise of bells and collars, and
belts showing designs in coronation
braid arc equally good.

The hand-painted skirt border is in
deed a thing of beauty but for her
who has neither requisite skill to do
this for herself nor the money to pay
for the work of another ,the printed
or woven bordered material forms a
very acceptable substitute.

A very wide cut steel buckle confin-
ing the many velvet ribbon loops at
the back of the undo-date hat is not
considered extreme among the multi-
tudes of what must he confessed some-
what odd and extreme styles in mil-
linei‘y this season.

A very clear complexion for the
wearer is the first demand for the suc-
cess of a gown that displays a combi-
nation of tan and tcrra colta. Quanti-
ties of corn lace soften the somewhat
trying combination ,and lend charm to
the unusualness of a gown that is
charming when worn by the occasional

 

 

 

 

one whom it just suite.

The business girl who is looking for
a neat suit for every day will find ll.
dark blue serge coat and skirt a most
useful choice, with a blouse of dark
blue India sprinkled with white for the
third piece. The silk blouse will save
laundry bills, and one can always rc-
potrt to the white shirt waist for var-
e y. ~
An inexpensive trimming for a silk
gown is made by running soutachc
upon bands of silk or satin ill the Grec-
ian pattern. One hand of the plain
silk topped by another of soutacho-
trimmed silk elaborates the idea some-
what and is appropriate for dressy
gowns. -

Very wide, transparent hats of crin
are uncommonly stunning when so
placed upon the head that the trim-
ming follows along one side of the
brim and the opposite brim near the
back is caught with the hat pin so that
the edge rests upon the shoulder of the
wearer.
