First take a piece of zinc. On it place & piece of vinegar soaked paper, then put on apiece of copper, then a piece of paper, then another zinc and then paper, and so on until all the pieces of zinc, copper and paper have been used. It is important that a piece of zinc should be on one end and a piece of copper on the other. After the pile is completed again soak the whole slight- ly in vinegar; then clean it off on the outside.

If the forefinger of one hand be held against one end and the forefinger of the other hand be held on the other end of the pile, quite a perceptible current will be felt. If several persons clasp hands and the perscus on each end of the line touch the voltaic pile, the cur- pent will flow through the bodies of all those in position.

The thermopile is wnotber electrical current producer that may be made in any household at a trifling expense. The electric curreut is generated in this case by heat, and anything from a can- die to a live ccal muy be used to pro- duce the heat. Take a lot cf German silver and copper wire and cut it into @xinch lengths. Then take a Germezn silver length and a copper lere¢th and twist the ends together. You will have a V shaped arrangement of wire. Take another length of German silver wire and twist one end of it tightly around the copper end of the V. Continue the process until you have a long sucecssion a@ what might be called W's or double Vsarranged with alternate pieces of copper and German silver wire.

Now take two large curtain rings. Bend your string of wire lengthe until it has assumed the position of a star and clamp. it between the two curtain rings. One end of the string of wires should be copper and the other German silver.

You will find when these are clamped between the curtain rings that the in- ner points of the star form a small cir- cle in the middle of the rings. The rings should be placed on uprights and a candle should be lighted, so that the flame will play between the inner points of the star.—New Ycrk Herald.

MODERN NEV/SPAPERS.

There Are No Prejudices In the Way of the New Journalist.

The new journalist has no prejudices that interfere with bis business ends. The founder of his school was the first man to make ap absolutely uc npartisan paper, and the successful men I talked With declared that the best way com- Mercially to make an editorial page Was to turn it over to some man with waind and character who wovld direct its policy indeperdently and in good faith in the interests of the community & a whole, ryurdless of parties, cliques, advertisers or any other inter- ests, however powerful. But while this is being done the business man who Ptopeses to conduct the enterprise Would have an eqrally independent Rew: department, and, having the most intelligent readers to begin with, he Would broaden the news policy from their point of view, spending as much us seisationalism costs for more important,

written news. In short, the con- Mercial ideal contains distinct apprecia- tion of the power of opinion, but it tes just as highly the value of the authoritative statement of all the news. There's not room for many such ROWspapers, but that’s the kind that Would live and pay forever,’’ said my Rew commercial journalist. —J. Lin- Cela Steficus iu Scribner's.

° PHE PILGRIMS. ag “Whither, pilgrims, whither bound Passing slowly with no sound?”

One by one they journey by,

Gliding, gliding silently.

Slowly, slowly, dim and gray,

Hold they on their ghostly, way,

‘‘Hither, children, making May

Of the solemn autumn day.

Who were they but now went by While the dead weeds gave a sigh? Who the pilgrims, dim and gray, Stopped and looked upon your play?”

‘‘We have wandered many hours

Here where some one hides the flowers;

We heard laughter in the grass,

But we saw no pilgrim pass.’

Whispers one--pale cheeked is she:

HEROES OF BUENA VIST

Yheir Sadly Neglected Burial Ground Near Saltilio, Mexico.

The hardy young Americans who left their comfortable homes in the United Ktates more than half a century ago and came to Mexico with General Taylor to fight against the people of this country probably did not think that should they fall in battle their bones would be left to crumble to dust in an unmarked spot in thisdistant land. Put today the dead heroes of the Buena Vista battlefield lie under but a few feet of earth in a neg- lected place just outside this city. At the time of their hasty burial their de- voted comrades evidently sought to make the spot somewhat sacred by con- structing an adobe wall around it. This wall is fast succumbing to the ravages of time, and in places it is completely gone. I visited the burial ground of the dead heroes today. A tram car took me as far as the pretty San Francisco plaza, and from there I walked throvgh a dirty, narrow street until I came to an arroyo, on the other side of which the faint marks indicating the cemetery may be seen. Had I not received care- ful directions I should have passed the place unnoticed. On the side toward the city the wall is entirely gone for the most part, and a much traveled wagon road passes through the place and over the sacred dead. The place which had once been inclosed by the adobe wall embraces probably two acres, but inves- tigation shows that many were buried west of the wall and up close to the ar- royo.

Some time ago the report was pub- lished in the press of the United States that the bones of the buried soldiers were protruding from the ground, and that the place presented a sickening spectacle, This report was not strictly true, but it is undoubtedly a fact that parts of many of the skeletons have come to the surface. The ground is strewn with fragments of bones, and it is evident that they come from the men who were buried there. None of these bones is large, as the heavy traffic through the place has broken them up into small pieces. If any skulls came to the surface, they were no doubt quick- ly taken by the Mexican children who were about and made innocent play- things of. Had they ever appeared they certainly would not have remained in- tact on the surface long. In the arroyo, through which floods of water pass at times and wash one side of the burial ground, there are also many pieces of bones among the rocks, and auong them I saw an unbroken rib bone y, hich looked like that of a human.

There is not aspear of grass nor a sign of vegetable life within the in- closure. It is perfectly barren. The place should certainly receive attention at the hands of the United States con- gress, even if nothing more isdone than to take such steps as will stay the rev- ages of time and weather on the treach- erous soil and permit the bodies lying there to rest undisturbed. It could easi- ly be made an attractive and even Lean- tiful place by laying it out in walke and planting trees and plants. Th» rav- ages of the floods in the arroyo on the soil of the cemetery could be checked by the building of a substantial wall along that side. In addition to the sev- eral hundred who were killed in battle, all of the soldiers who died in the hos- pital here were also buried there. —Mex- ican Letter in St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
