ALEXANDER VOLTA.

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., -

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.

chemical action, and he built the
first electric generator, consisting of
plates of copper and zinc arranged
alternately one Above the other and
separated by a liquid capable of
conducting electricity. 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.

culty is in raising the first dollar.—
