Philadelphia Record. a "Ligbtening-iodB are going out of use. Why? Because thev re not believed to be the protection that was once thought tbey were' This is what an electrician told a reporter. Fifteen years ago the lightning rd aent was every where in the land, and more es pecially at every farmers door. To-day, it is claimed, their number bas materially decreased, and farm ers are discontinuing the pse of the rods . 'What is your opinion upon the subject of lightning-rods?" was afked of Chief Walker of the City Electrical Department. . ''Candidly, in nine cases of ten," he replied, "I think they are hum bugs. , I believe it is a fact that buildings are in more danger which have lightning rods on them tiian with them off. In the first place, it is best to keep electricity as far away from a building as possible. The object of the lightning-rod sis to attract it. The rod is supposed to act as a conductor of the electri cal current to the earth, but instead ot being carried oft", the current, in consequence of faulty construction ot the rod or attachments, is fre quently switched into the buildinp. The ead of the wire is supposed to be buried in moist earth, the moist ure acting as good conductor. Without strict attention the iron becomes oxidized and rusts o!t,and then the rod is worse than nothing. It is & positive dacger UDder such circuntauces, attracting the elec tricity ot the atmosphere and hav ing no adequa.e outlet fr it. Then, again, the same danger arises when the insulators upon the tMe side of the building become d lective. The iign tiling is attract ed from the atmosphere, where it might hae remained but for the rod, and it is turned loose against the building cn its way to the earth. It, for instance, the attachments on a barn are poor or worn out, the current deflected ancfset fire to the building. This is no uncommon occurrence. In this citv some years ago the rod on the Belmont Waterworks was struck, and it fused. The current flowed' ou down and played about the ma chinery in the liveliest kind of a way. A big stone was knocked off the Washington Monument by lightning. When the ground con tact is good and the lightning is about to strike a building a rod may be of use, but I think the rods do more harm than v good. There was a time when 'farmers were scared into roddiog their barns and houses, but I think they are get ting over that." CMKISTIASITV IS JAPAN. Its iBtradaclton Proposed as a Blatter f Policy. London Times. The Japan Weekly Mail in areeent issue summarizes a discussion now being carried on in Japan by several eminent publicists respecting the advisability of the people of that country embracing the Christian religion. "A movement supported by some prominent men is on toot to give an impetus to the spread of Christianity by laying stress on the secondary benefits its acceptance insures." These connected with the movement say that Christian dogmas are a bitter pill to swallow, but advise that it be swallowed promptly lor the sake of the after effects. Mr. tukuzawa, a well-known writer, urges this course, although he says he takes no personal interest what ever in religion, and knows nothing of the teaching of Christianity; but he sees thit it is the creed ot the most "highly civilized nations To him religion is only a garment, to be put on or taken off at pleasure, bat he thinks it prudent that Japan should wear the same dress as her neighbors with whom she desires to stand well. Professor Toyama of the Imperial University has published a work to support this view. He holds that Chinese ethics must be replaced by Christian ethics and that the benefits to be derived from the intro duction of Christianity are. (1) the improvement of music; (2) union of sentiment and feeling, leading to harmonious co-operation; and (3) the furnishing a medium of intercourse between men and women. Mr. Kato, the late President of the Imperial University, who. says that religion is not needed for the education, and confesses his dislike to all religions equally, urjies the introduction of religious teaching into the govern ment schools, ou the ground that the i-nlearned in Japan have had their laith in old moral standards shaken, tnd that there is now a set ious lack of moral sentiment among the masses. Among the replies to this is oue by a Mr. Sugiuria, who is described as "a diligent student of Western philos ophy for many years." He speaks of tne specially, marked lack ot religious feeling and sentiment in his country men. The Japanese, be says, have no taste for religion whatever, and is is impossible thit they should ever become a religious people. The youth of Japan, he argues, being free from the thralldom of creeds, aud free to act according to reason, are so far in advance of Europeans, and in stead of talking about adopting a foreign religion, Japauese should go abroad and preach their religion of reason to foreign countries. Other writers urge the same views. The writer in the Yokohama newsuauer says that those who urge the teach ing of Christianity represent an. influential section of educated Jap anese opinion; they are signs of the times. "To Japan, in an emphatical ly agnostic mood, came Western Bcience with all its marvelous revela tions and attractions. At the shrine of that science she is worshiping how." The Thirst far ld. Dion Boucicault in Xew York Herald. I can see a lovely valley where nature had gathered into her lap all her wealth oi scenery and soil, till her rivers of jewels and purple cad mountains, where the castles of the nobles above and the home steads of the peasants below and abroad presided over peace and plenty amid eternal spring. One day while digging a ditch a lump of gold was turned up; pursuing the search, a mine was revealed. The news of the discovery over ran the valley like an epidemic. Rich and poor were soon employed digging up the soil. The noble al lowed his castle to fall into ruin and his park to run to wildernesH. The peasant left his fallow to dig in the mountain side. Rivers ran dry, for waters were diverted into flumes to wash the golden dirt. Woods were cut down to furnish sheds to support the undermined earth. The fields were mottled with great molehills and boles, and the speckled face of nature re vealed where the gold-pox had left its filthy trace. The rich became poor and the poor reveled in their halls. Vulgarity and pretense ruled in the castle, while the noble hedged at his own gate. The idiot sat in the magisterial chair, and the vile women, espousing the buffoon, mounted the throne, and thej received the homage due to genius. Ladies' tine Balbrin underwea at co;-:.
