I have no tester or current control.  I use 3-9Volt batteries in series,
connected to silver wires and put them into the jar.  I just bought *new
wires* and put the old alligator clips on them, plus *new batteries*.  The
last thing I can think of is maybe, like you say, it *is* a bad batch of
water.  Again, I have no tester, so I will just go get another gallon of
distilled water and give it another try.  Hope that will be the key.  If it
is the water, would it still do *nothing?*   I'll have to get a ppm tester.
Thanks, everyone for your suggestions.  I'll let you know how it goes after
I try it again.
