First Perhaps the most familiar of all words in electrical phraseology is the word “ volt,” which means the unit of electrical pressure or poten tial. The name volt is given to this unit in honor of Alexander Volta, the famous Italian scientist, who experimented with electricity more than a century ago. Alexander Volta was born in Co mo, Italy, in 17^5. In 1774 he was appointed professor of physics in the Gymnasium of Como. In 1779 he was given the chair of physics at Pavia and in 1791 received the Copley medal of the Royal society. In 1801 iftpoleon called him to Paris to show his experiments on contact electricity, ana a medal was struck in his honor. In 1815 the emperor of Austria made him di rector of philosophy of Padua. He died in the year 1827., - I t was Volta who discovered that MILLINERY A twelve passenger buss in good order. Mitchel mountain gear. Complete t w o horse and four horse rig $100. J. A.

In the valley it did not last long, but showers otcold rain and flurries o f snow have fallen at intervals since. Such a freak of weather following the summer like month o f March, which hur ried the fruit trees into the bloom ing season, is much to be feared, though fruit men think that little dam age has been done so far. The records fail to show such a tall o f snow in the month ot April in the Willamette valley, but Hon. J. C. Nelson, the oldest inhabitant in this section, says he saw similar spring weather here back in the forties.

This bettery was called the voltaic pile, in bonrir of its inventor. The pile’, or bat tery, so made was capable o f pro ducing a constant flow o f electricity. Previous to this Galvani had made his famous fro g ,le g experiments, noting the muscular contractions o f the leg when brought in contact with iron. He assumed that this strange phenomenon was caused by X vital fluid flowing out of -the nerves o f the frog through the iron. Volta at first believed this to be true, bnt subsequent experiments convinced him that it was nothing bnt a new form o f electricity caused by chemical action. Out of these extremely simple experiments grew the first chemical battery, which differed but slightly from the wet and dry batteries of the commercial world today which supply the current for telephones and telegraphs, signals, gas engines, automobiles and a thousand other things which require a small cur rent of electricity.— Electric News. Value of Capital. Once upon a time two urier bank rupts were considering ways and means of getting needed money. “ I know how we can make $9,” said one. “ Raise a dollar note to ten by placing a cipher after the one.” “ Where will we raise the dollar ?” Then the scheme failed for want of capital.
