ON July 1. 10$, the writer said In
an I article: "Nothing exists
. within a sphere whose diameter
is-17 quadrillion-miles, require
In light, which moves J8,000 miles per
pecond, 11.116,000 miles per minute,
0,000 yeara to traverse, but eorpuaolee."
The sphere mentioned is that having
ftho earth in Its center, and as seen by
. the largest modern telescopes. For
JO, 000 years is quite a long .time, and
184,000 miles during one second is aa
Inconceivably rapid rate of motion. Tot
tt la positively known that light and all
ither interstellar modes of energy travel
lth that impressive velocity.
Professor J. J. Thompson determined
the msss of ultimate corpuscles of mat
ter to be about one-thouaandth part of
Inn atom of hydrogen, the smallest and
. lightest body of matter known until the
(discovery of corpuscles.
No brain Is abla to imagine how min
ute the hydrogen atom ta. and all-powers
of the mind of man aro Impotent when it
begins to think of the dimensions of a
icorpuecle. The latest deduction of the
'foremost' scientific men of the world Is
jthat all forms of matter at present
jknown ran bo resolved into these exces
sively small corpuscles.
But here comes tho chief fact known
about them: When matter ia disinteg
rated Into Its final or' corpuscular con
dition It is Impossible to distinguish any
'difference between tho corpuscles and
electricity. This is but one wsy of say
jlng that tho onttro sidereal universe and
'everything in it aro made of electricity. .
Electricity Is matter - beyond any
doubt;' but for years It haabeen called
onHode6r energy. This philosophy
sounds like saying that matter and en
ergy aro identical and both are Included
. tinder one word electricity. To get at
, this In another way, it may be aald that
no entity exists but electricity. If eo
and it certainly looks that way thea
the human mind is made of electricity,
and electricity is matter. ,

Portland Is the orHy great city In the
country which la within ouch essy strik
ing distance of a mountain whose sum
,tnlt is perpetually covered with snow,
and although ' Mount Hood Is only - S
miles distant there are no means where
by tourists are able to make the trip ex
cept by long, tiresome rides.
.W. W. Cotton of this city thinks he
has a solution, to the matter and pro
poeea a plan which will bring tho snow
covered peak within at least three hours'
ride of Portland. Ho sdvlses the In
stallation of a line of automobiles to run
dally from this city to Mount Hood. In
peaking , on thla subject last evening
bo aald;
. "Portlanders do not realise what they
-have In Mount Hood. They du not ap
preciate tho fact that they have In this
great mountain aomethlng of which no
ther great city In the country can boast.
Mount Hood Is only a short distance
' away, yet It la a plnca where thousands
' of the people of Portland have never
visited. If it waa located down In south
ern California it would be one of the
' moat widely advertised features In -the
whole country, while hero, where It Is
always In sight, we very seldom hear
anything said about it.'

whoa wealth once made him factor In
financial (ttrolea, waa burled br hla rela
tive. Misfortune came upon hlin. and
he died, at the at of (0, In mlaery. . He
lived at NO. t0 Franklin avenue; Brook
ljrn. Once a prosperoua manufacturer,
hla laat'dara were epent aa a pedler. .
Juat how the trleka of fortune brought
htm from affluence to ftaiurjr he could
not tell. Hla relative aay ha made un
wlae Investmenta In western land
booma and,. Indulged expenatve fade tfll
hla fortune- waa hopeleaely involved.
Then he tranaferred the mortgaged re
mainder to his nephew, Lawrence Bar
num,, and afterward sued hire for a re
turn of the property. ' l
Mrs, Lawrence Barnum. who was Miss
Grace- Haskell, the well-known singer,
was at one time the aged man's favor
ite relative. He waa fond of music, and
in his prosperous days obtained a posi
tion for her with the Central Congrega
tional choir.
'The old gentleman," said Mrs. Law
rence Barnum jreatnrdajr. "met with mis
fortune and lost hla money. - He in
vested in western land schemes, and
Oriental speculation,' 4.000 years In tho
dlatant past, when the wisest men tho
world has ever contained said over and
over again the "thoughts and things."
This idea haa never died out; for from
that remote epoch soma, psychologists
have kept tho primeval belief alive. And
tho doctrine ia at this present moment
spreading over the world again with re
markable rapidity. Mall received hero
from all parts of the world contains this
phrase repeatedly: "Thought power: the
force of thought"; "transmission of
thought power," and similar sentences
bristle in the books, papers and the mul
titudes of letters rally pouring Into this
observatory. Electricity aaaumos more
forms than did Proteus of old.
These ' "bodies smaller than atoms"
have tho property inertia- and other at
tributes of matter, yet none eo far is
able to toll us where they differ from
electricity. It may be well to atate that
soma scientists assert that they are not
electric, but no proof haa been oomlng.
Radium now In New Tork that was re
ceived from Paris in 1900 Is still giving
out heat and light It therefore must
receive matter which It transforms Into
heat; but If. heat is electricity, and elec
tricity matter, then there is a flow of
matter throughout 'all space; for tho
spectroscope sees matter in tho distant
glowing auna In all directions In the
same phasea wo aro familiar with hero
on our speck of earth.
Chemists, physicists and electricians
aro working night and day to find out
what matter ia, and psychologists aro
working also day and night to find what
mind is. At tho present stage of In
vestigation It looka as though both aro
one and tho same, and that tho most
common form In which theyappearJt
electricity.
Tho entire speculative portion of tho
scientific ' world is racking its brain
striving to Interpret tho flood of mys
teries that Is submerging tho human
mind with Inscrutable problems. The In
tensity of gravity is well known, and it
has been measured with accuracy. Thus:
Two spheres, say of gold, lead or gran

SHERIFF SHIES AT
JUDICIAL ERMINE
Tomorrow morning It will be Judge
Word as well Sheriff Word. For
the first tlma In hla life "Honest Tom"
will sit In the seat reserved for wearers
of tho ermine. And, far from being
proud or elated over the prospect, he
ia mightily worried In spirit. In fact,
ha found it necessary lust Wedneeday
to go to Long Beach, Wash., to re
cuperate and regain all the vitality ho
has expended in raiding Chinese Joint
In order to cope with tho ordeal.
A' few daya ago the roadhouse of A.
J. II. Miller, on the Base Ltne road, was
attached on a Judgment for 1760 se
cured by E. F. Btrack In the circuit
court. Tho amount was awarded him as
damages for being shot in the foot.
Now several other persons have stepped
In and asserted that MlUer baa prop
city. Easterners coming here could ride
out Into one of the grandeat and most
sublime mountain countries in America.
They would go to their homes and tsll
of the fact that within three hours' ride
of Portland they rode to a mountain cov
ered with perpetual snow. And then the
scenery between Portland and Hood Is
grand, while tho roads are passable and
might be fixed for automobile travel
with but little expenae, making a fine
automobile boulevard. Not only would
easterners make this trip, but the local
people and those from all parts of tho
coast would hear of thla tide and come
to this city for tho express purpose of
taking It !
"If soma enterprising cltlxeno would
only take up this matter and Investigate
It I think they would easily see Its
feasibility. It would he one of .the
greatest things for the city of Portland
that was ever Inaugurated. ,

they turned out badly. When his af
fairs became Involved he turned over
his estate to my huaband. who attempted
to get It out of the tangle. The old
gentleman's property waa heavily mort
gaged, and my huaband made every -effort
to aa've something, . even putting
f IB. 000 into the estate.
"Old age and. disappointment affected
the old gentleman'a thoughts, and he
dwelt so much on his ill luck that he be
lieved ha had been deceived by hla
nephew. Ho became desperate, and de
manded a settlement and the return of
his property. The matter was taken to
court, and the referee decided that the
old gentleman waa really in debt to my
husband. He had made his homo with
us after transferring his property to my
husband, but left us at the time of the
lawsuit."
Isaac Barnum made a fortune out of a
hemming attachment for sewing ma
chines, aa invention of his own. ' His
fads were mualo and photography.- He
had hundreds of photographs of himself
made, and spent large sums indulging
his musical tastes, ho waa a relative
of P. T. Barnum, the showman.
and whoso centers are one mile apart,
would attract each other with a force of
one pound.
Tho electrical potential of that vast
mass of aorpusoles saturating all apace,
for long -called -"ether," hao been com1
puted; and there la a remarkable rela
tion between them. Tho deductions are
intenaely mathematical and were made
by Bergen Davla of Columbia University,
and hero aro his conclusions in his own
language: "This rather remarkable rela
tion between tho gravitational constant
and tho constant of tho other Is very
suggestive. It appears to me that thla
coincldenco can hardly bo accidental. If
maas la electromagnetic, the constant of
mass attraction might bo expected to be
related to tho constants it tho ether.
Tho above result not only suggests, that
matter Is electrical in constitution, but
that gravitational force la tho same in
kind If not In degree with electrical
forces, and that they act In a common
medium."
Scientists for years have now and
then written that gravity Is probably
electrical, and now - it appears that
mathematical proof la on the way. But
man's place In nature and hla relation
to matter, or "electricity,"; Is attracting
attention all over tho civilised world
now. It Is certain that "finer forces"
exist In tho universe of which man is at
present ignorant. Thua: One of tho
most conservative acienttfto men of Eng
land, "Slgman," says: "The real ques
tion la Just whether nature consists of
matter and forcer the known physical
agencies or whether It muet not In
clude another order of existence, tho
psychical, to which is duo those phe
nomena called life, mind, etc."

At last tha dull spell in tho real
estate market is coming to an end and
better times aro already in sight. The
transfers this week show a. remarkable
gain even after tho largo sale of the
Dekum property Is taken' from the
totala.: :
Real eatate man say they noticed an
altogether different feeling at the first
of the week. People began to Inquire
for property a if they wanted to buy

new activity.

A Hotel for rortand SCeigfeta.
There la now some serious talk of the
construction of a large modern hotel on
Portland height along the new line of
tho Portland Hallway company. It is
said that a site, occupying one of the
highest point of the height ha been
elected.- In real estate circles such a
bote! has been -talked of for some time as
the view alono would causa a great
many of tha tourists to stop there.
There is a great deal of activity along

Is toning up a great deal and several
additional industries are In sight of

During tho past week there has been
a notable lncreaae In tho number of
