who cannot control himself." It
looks like a manufactured story. As
a matter of fact nearly every officer
of the army drank whiskey and nine
out of ten privates would do so when
they had a chance. This is our observation
and it. is all stulT to say that
a total abstainer was a better soldier
than the man who drank. We do
not know whether it is true or not,
but it was said at the surrender at
Appomattox that (Ion. Ord of the I .
S. Army sent a livo-ioillon ke?r of
the best brandy he could oet to (ion.

hut fell in the freezing water
and came out drenched and chilled
to the hone, (ion Thomas handed
him a canteen of apple brandy from
which he took a good drink. Smacking
his lips he said he would fall in
again for another drink.
So far as we can recall we do not
know a private who would not take
a drink when it was to he had.
We confess we wero somewhat
surprised when we read the above in
the Abbeville Median. The editor
of that sterling weekly is usually so
conservative and considerate that it
found us unprepared to witness its
departure from a strictly Medium
course. We know nothing of the
case in question hut the reason
^ nssighed by the temperance papers
for Gonl. Lee's refusing to promote
the officer is so characteristic of that
great and good man that wear? willto
give it entire credence. It sounds
exactly like him. i

that the turkey o^'s broke during

at the proper time he came otT the

and that he can be seen at his

i\j:\v Vouk, August 10. Among
tlio most interesting of tlio eighty*
one pa ers read before the learned
delegates to.the American Assoeia- ,
tion for the ^dvarcement of Science
yoHtonlay was one !>v Thomas A.
Kdison, read by Prof. (ioorgo K. i
Darker, upon a novel proposition,
namelv, the conversion of heat into
! power direct!v l>v means of magnoI
tism, and, by the same principle, the
conversion of heat into electricity.
Of his discovery Mr. Kdison says:
"Sinco wheuover a maunetic field
varies it strength in tin* vicinity of a
conductor, a current is jronerated in
that conductor, it occurred to me
that l>v placing an iron core*' in a
magnetic circle and varying the
mnonoti/.ahility of that core 1?v varying
its temperature, it would he possible
to generate ?a current in a coil
of wire, surroiindinnr this rare."
#r>
Acting upon this idea Mr. Kdison
I placed eioht electro-mnonets in a circle,
all their positive polos in contact
I with one iron dish, and their netrativo
poles in contact with another.
! I'assino through the disks anb join,
in?r them ho placed an equal nninber
of rolls of thin commuted iron, each
r>
roll opposite tl*e two poles respectively
of the eleetro-majriiols lie
i wound the ei^ht iron rolls with insulated
wire. When this simple appaj
rates was placed over a furnace so
that hot air passed through the rolls,
they became straight-way tion-ma<r:
netic. Tlien he fitted a semicircu!
l.ar plate below the lower disk to
j shut off the heat from half the rolls,
so that thev became? ninj/nctio, and
! half, bcinjr hot, were non-maqnet ic.
liy revolvinjjf liis semicirculnr plate
tin* rolls woro lirst heated and I lion
cooled, and l>v this moans electricity
was generated in the coils of wire
surrounding the rolls.
Mr. JOdison thinks that this device
can lie so modified as to furnish electric
lights f(,r il whole, house by
| means of tlx- heat from an ordinary
furnace, and ho will pursue his experiments
in that direction, lie calls
the machine the Pyre-magnetic
(Jenerator.
The propositi pyromaguclic motor
i is thus described: A wheel is swung
on an axis perpendicular to the plane
or a poriiiauent magnet. The wheel
is made of lubes of thin iron, which
are heated to redness by a current of
hot air. A screen covers a part of
the tubes, cooling them bv shutting
the hot air off as the wheel revolves.
As a magnet attracts cold iron more
strongly than hot iron, the cooled
tubes of the wheel are drawn to the
magnet, and so the wheel is rovol\
cd.
This motor has been tried experimentally
bv Mr. Kdison, and ho is
now constructing a machine of threehorse
power. The output of electrical
energy will be greater, ho thinks
than in any device now known, and
the cost of operation less.

orates tho company. The manaee-j
incut is not censured for runninc a

tlie failure to patrol the track for

As the Lev. Sam Jones's meeting
proceed the interest is notably increasing.
His characteristic hits to-day
were aimed particularly at so-called
church members. Some of these, he
said, were goodv-goody, ar.d yet
1 treed for nothing. Some would make
first-class card players, good stock
jobbers, and line jockeys, but were
not lit for the church. Tattlers or
back-biters would keep heaven in a

there tattlers alone would make it
unendurable.
The best that can bo claimed for
alcohol is that it is a stimulant for
use in emergencies to secure a
temporary intensification of the vital
forces. It is as devoid of nutritions
qualities as is a block of wood. So
to speak, it is a means by which one
may draw on the capital stock of his
strength in order to meet a pressing
call. At last, however, lie must meet
the paper thus discounted and pay a
high interest for the loan. The man
who dissipates really squanders the
corpus of his physical estate on passing
indulgences, literally wastes his
substance in riotous living. A phy
