There is no study so profound as electricity.\nIt is a marvel to the scientist as well as to the\nnovice. It is simple in its manifestations, but\nmost complex in its organization and in its ramifications.\nIt has been shown that light, heat, magnetism\nand electricity are the same, but that they\ndiffer merely in their modes of motion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First Historical Account.\u2014The first historical\naccount of electricity dates back to 600 years B. C.\nThales of Miletus was the first to describe the\nproperties of amber, which, when rubbed, attracted\nand repelled light bodies. The ancients\nalso described what was probably tourmaline, a\nmineral which has the same qualities. The torpedo,\na fish which has the power of emitting electric\nimpulses, was known in very early times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

From that period down to about the year 1600\nno accounts of any historical value have been\ngiven. Dr. Gilbert, of England, made a number\nof researches at that time, principally with amber\nand other materials, and Boyle, in 1650, made\nnumerous experiments with frictional electricity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sir Isaac Newton also took up the subject atp. 6<\/a>\nabout the same period. In 1705 Hawksbee made\nnumerous experiments; also Gray, in 1720, and a\nWelshman, Dufay, at about the same time. The\nGermans, from 1740 to 1780, made many experiments.\nIn 1740, at Leyden, was discovered the\njar which bears that name. Before that time, all\nexperiments began and ended with frictional electricity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first attempt to “bottle” electricity was\nattempted by Muschenbr\u0153ck, at Leyden, who conceived\nthe idea that electricity in materials might\nbe retained by surrounding them with bodies which\ndid not conduct the current. He electrified some\nwater in a jar, and communication having been\nestablished between the water and the prime conductor,\nhis assistant, who was holding the bottle,\non trying to disengage the communicating wire,\nreceived a sudden shock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1747 Sir William Watson fired gunpowder by\nan electric spark, and, later on, a party from the\nRoyal Society, in conjunction with Watson, conducted\na series of experiments to determine the\nvelocity of the electric fluid, as it was then termed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benjamin Franklin, in 1750, showed that lightning\nwas electricity, and later on made his interesting\nexperiments with the kite and the key.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
