FIRE PARTIALLY DE
STROYS CLARKE HOME
The residence of G. Arthur Clarke
on Sherman avenue was partially de
stroyed by tire Saturday afternoon,
although the greater damage wa9 done
by the water. The fire and water did
not penetrate the upstairs portion of
the house, due to the quick arrival of
the fire department. It is presumed
that the fire started from a defective
flue, the soot burning through the
hoards above the clothes closet down
stairs.
All the furniture was ruined either
by water or fire, but is partially cov
ered by $600 insurance. The insurance
on the house is $1000, and the piano,
which belongs to Mrs. Clarke's sister.
Miss Violet Calmer, is Insured for $350.
No one was at home at the time of
the fire, Mrs. Clarke and her aitfter
being in Portland.
Repairs on the house have com
menccd, Mr. and Mrs. Clarke having
taken rooms at the Mount Hood Annex.
They expect to be at home again
within a month.
W hat is a Kilowatt?
People who use electricity are very
often puzzled by some of the terms
which are used in this industry, and the
words "kilowatt" and "kilowatt hour"
have been a source of a great deal of
confusion. 'I he meanings of the terms
are quite simple. Kilowatt is a meas
ure ot power Biid represents approxi
mately one and one-third horse power.
A kilowatt is divided into two thousand
watts, and therefore one horsepower is
equal to approximately 750 watts, or,
to be exact, is equal to 716 watts. A
four horse power motor is, therefore, a
three kilowatt motor. A thousand Kil
owatt generator will generate 1,333
horse power. Motors are generally
rated in horsepower, but there is no
reason why they could not be rated in
kilowatts. A watt, which is the unit
of power, was named in honor of
James Watt, who made a number of
important electrical investigations,
the word "kilo" is derived from Greek
and means a thousand. Therefore, a
kilowatt is equal tu one thousand
watts. A kilowatt hour means that
the power of one kilowatt has worked
for one hour, three kilowatt hours
are equal to four horsepower hour9.
twenty 50 watt laniin burning one
hour will consume one kilowatt hour of
energy, and tin 100-watt lumps burn
ing the Bame length of time will con
sume one thousand watt hours or one
kilowatt hour. The kilowatt hour is
the common standard used for billing
purposes and the measurement of elec
tric energy used throunhout the world.
Une of the most widely niisunder
(ood terms of electricity is tlie"volt."
The volt represents the current pres
sure and has nothing to do with quant
ity or me amount or current. It is
reallv the head under which the elec
tricity is operating and is analagous to
the pressure of water in pipes spoken j
of as so many pounds per square inch. !
lhe quuntity or amount of elcctricilj i
is measured by the ampere which, in !
hydraulics, would be anulagoua to gal 1
Ions or quarts or cubic feet. An elec-
trie current which has a pressin e of i
one volt and a quantity of one ampere
will have one watt power. Power is
derived by multiplying tho volts by the i
power, 1,000 or one kilowatt. An elec-'
tic light made for one hundred volt cir-1
cuit and using one half an ampere of;
current is known as a 50 watt lump. !
If it uses one empire of current it;
would be a 100 watt lamp. A lamp i
built for 200 volts and takirg one am- I
pere wouM be a 2(H) wstt lamp. If this
should burn five hours it would con
sume 1,000 kilowatts or one kilowatt
hour.
When heavy currents flmv through !
small wires, the wires have a tendency ,
to become hot. This is taken advan
tage of in tbe manufacture of fuses or
fusii plugs. If there is an accidental '
short circuit in the house, a great deal
of current will How becuse there is
very'Jittle resistance in iis Jwav. A
grei;t qualify of current " thiwirg
through the house wiring would Iihvc a
tendency to heat these wirts and set
something on lire or else melt tho cop
per. Usually small switch hoards arc
put in with fuses mailt! of son e
metal that will molt very quickly and
this breaks the circuit. When a short
circuit occurs, the fuse heats lirst and!
melts, thus stopping the How nf U, c
current. This operation is generally
instantaneous.

of course, wiil be watehul by every
luwn ollicer and ordered to "n.ove on"
no matter how duleful their pleadings.
We fcnow that in this country, as in
others, tin re is but little work to be
'had during the wrrtcr season, and it
' seems to n.e uiinost inhuman tu order
a man to "aiove,ou" Alien already,

gun to gather, when he has been count
ing the railroad ties all day in search
of work ai d in many cases withuut a
bite to eat or with possibly a stale loaf
or cold notiito.
In talking tu a man Sunihy morning,
to whom 1 gave breakfast, he stated
that had stood in line one whole day in
Portland waiting to register for - work
I and finding so many of the men with
I families to support, that he decided
to "hit the road" and take his chui.cts
with others who had no families to
support.
He left I'orllaiid nungry anu at
iroutdale was given a stale loaf of
bread which he divided with another
man, and had nothing to eat since. He
arrived in Hood Kiver at one o'clock
Sunday morning so nearly exhausted
that he could hardly go. He tried in
vain to find the marshal ami finally
crawled into a vacant kennel, where
he put in about three hours of ex
hausted sleep. When the owner of tbe
kennel routed him out
He said to me that "t'histmas would
soon be here and people all over the
country would feast on the fat of the
land, while thousands of us are yearn
ing for tne bare necessities of life."
1 said "yes, that is true, but those
who are able to enjoy that feast saved
at least part of their eurnings, while
you fellows were spending jours for
whiskey."
"That is too true," he icplied.
"But, no matter from what cause it
docs not change the condition now nnd
these people are going to live and if
in no other way it will be at the ex
pense of the courts and the taxpay
ers." Then taking this view of tbe
natter, would it not be w ise to at once
fix up some kind of a Bunk Hotel
where these people can huve phcltcr
and warmth, ami bunks to sleep on
and a place where they can do a little
cooking, etc? It seems to mu that
something can be done without very
much expense that will alleviate to a
great extent the suffering of unfortu
nate humanity. (). P. Uahney.

Bad Crock on Clectric Ihiir.ud
Kxccedinu the speed limit on s'uirp
curves and a faulty bridue ennstr:rtion
was the cause of several h:id wrecks on
the electric rairload load in Itailey &
Colby's window Saturday evening.
lhe window was very picttily d cor- 1
ated witD'ir bows and Christmas trim
mings, and a toy electric railway con-
structcd as a center piece. with bridges,
tunnel, etc. The tiny engine has an
electric headlight, and the motive
power is furnished by a small motor on
the engine, receiving its power from a
third rail iu the center of the track.
In the installation of the road, Supt. of
Construction Hailey undertook to ar
range a fast schedule, with the result
that one trip the engine jumped the
track while rounding a sharp curve and
piled the whole train in the deep can
yon, carrying down a biidnc in its fall,
and delaying trallic until the wrecking
crew made repairs. It was a very for
