PACT VERIFIES FICTldN NfcJAKLY fiCly years ago Sir Edward Bulwcr-Lytton published "The Ooinlntr Race." an imainnative novel dealing with the development of electricity and itt effect upon humanity. The narrator, while exploring the workings of a mine, tumbles through a dee) shaft, recovering consciousness in an underground world where humanity has reached a much higher state of development, both mentally and physically, is apparent on earth's surface. Among other acquired accomplishments is the art of flying, not with an aeroplane, but with attachable wings. "The Coining Race" should be a source of never-ending joy to the militant suffragette, for the females of this future race are superior to the males the women stronger and larger than the men, and as becomes their superioritV, they are the bosses. The narrator is adjudged a barbar ian, but saved from speedy death by the love he inspires in one of these women, who smuggles him back to earth. When the "Coining Race" is attacked by hostile na tions, who inarch in countless numbers with flying ban ners, huge standing armies, armed as the standing armies of Europe are armed, with long-range cannon and modern weapons, who, though as civilized as the nations of the earth, arc dubbed barbarians, some of the small boys are sent to meet them with small electrical weapons, which shoot lightning and blast entire armies from a long dis tance. That Bulwer was not so far off from future develop ments along scientific lines is shown by the following dis patch: Florence, Italy. Feb. 13. Exploding torpedoes from a lone distance by means of ultra-violet ras was an experiment carried out successfully todjy by Slgnor Ullvl. Two torpedoes charsed with smokeless Kunponder and two otbcrj filled with black powder wero placed In the River Arna by Admiral Fornarl. Tho ultra-violet ray apparatus was posted on the tower of tho I'alazzo Car ponl, two miles away. When the signal was given the appartus as put in motion, and In less than 3 minutes all four torpedoes were exploded. If a torpedo can be exploded from long distance by the ultra-violet rays, so can any powder magazine on or off a warship. The ultra-violctfrays sound the death knell of the modem battleship. All tho millions of the people's money, wrung by taxation and taken from legitimate de velopment, and poured in the dreadnoughts of the world is wasted money. The passing of war as an occupation for civilization is being hastened by science. Soon it will be possible to nnmnilate the armies and navies ot the world by unseen and unheard agencies, even jus the boys of the Coining Jtace blasted the armies ot the barbarians as in the visions Bulwer conjured up half a century ago. Thus is fact verifying fiction. moved 1 Cent nil Point, nl'lor spoml iin; two month hole. Mr. Moon was employed in the se mr's office.
