The room may bA filled II Q with the weH-kno;vn bluish liquid fire, but the men are at the U throttle wheels to prevent the bif; dynamos from bursting, i l in the event that the man at the switches hns suddenly thrown p the load off of them. This is done to prevent the lierhtnincr fj f from melting the wires on the dynamos. The water running through nozzles is traveling at the rate of two miles each 4 minute of time, and unless it was quickly turned off at the g! wheel, the big magnet or armature of the dynamo would be A running at a bursting speed of two miles per minute. Then A f again, there are times when no electrical storms exist, the i weather is clear, and the tune of the dynamo suddenly ' changes by what is called a short on the line, which causes ij the current to suddenly increase which instiintly heats the Ii wire coils in the dynamo to the burning point. Line troubles G S are always a source of anxiety to the comr .my and the men i in charge. An extra machine can always be started and cut in when- I ever another one gives out. but the lines of wires stretching F far away over the mountains and hills are quite another mat- '? I ; ter whenever some unavoidable accident happens. ) About six years ago, two eagles were playing in the air about twenty miles from the power house near Oroville. Cal. ' k They struck a three wire 60.000 volt line, their wings being at j I least six feet across, formed a short circuit from one of the j ! wires to the other ami about 10.000 horse power passed through their bodies. In less than a fraction of a minnte, one j of the transformers at the power house boiled the oil over J and net it on fire, and it was only on account of quick action 'I that the building was saved. On another occasion a crew of men between Petaluma and 1 ; Santa Rosa were moving a tall hay- derrick wanted to pass ; ' under the high tension wires, but found the derrick too high. 3 One of the men said he knew all about electricity and ventured ,j I to raise the wires with a pitchfork. He had nearly completed j ;1 his dangerous undertaking when ODe of the bystanders, tak- I ing hold of a loose guy wire, attached to the top of the der- j r rick, thought to assist the man upon the top with the pitch- '! ij fork. The next moment, the derrick had touched the wires I i and the grass began to lmrn under the wheel of the waeon. :, t! The current was grounded, or shorted as they call it. and these jj h two cities experienced what it means to be without electrical ? service for a few hours. 1 .The public of todi'y demands a continuous and u'unter- f j rnpted service )"!; success of business and u c of pout r and t 'i lii'.ht rely largely upon this t kkWh magic energy. j!i (j UTAE LIGHT & KA2LWAY CO.
