A Machine is to be put into every law
Office in New York city, and everything
transpiring in the courts is to be trans
mitted as the sale of stocks is sent to the
hotels and financial institutions of the
city. A lawyer will not have to go to
court to know what cases are on trial,
what judgments are rendered, or what
legal transactions take place in the courts.
Everything transacted will go over the
wires as stocks now do. The arrange
ment will include all that is done in the
Sheriffs office; every judgment and levy;
every mortgage and attachment; every
case tried, from the Justices Court up to
the Supreme, with every verdict and
every disagreement. The putting up of
the instrument is to cost about $3.50 each.

A red hot meteor fell near West Lib

ground, and making a hole ten feet in
diameter. For hours it continued to
spit forth flames, crackle, sputter and
smoke, and occasionally discharged can
non-like reports, to the infinite terror Of
the people in the vicinity. None dared
approach while this miniature volcano
continued in action, but with the cessa-

investigate The wonder.
