communicated to it his ideas of the electric

Patent Office is in daily receipt of applications
for patents for supposed inventions of this
character. In fact. few years ago, when it
was rumered that the French Academy of
Sciences bad offerer a large premium to the
successful inventor OF such machine, the
applications became SO numerous that the
Commissioner of Patents felt himself called
upon to publish printed letter, copy of
which was sent to every applicant, and which
read as follows:
Dear Sir-Bring your machine to Washing
ton. II will be set 10 motion and placed in
closet secured by wo locks aud will give you
one key, retaining the other myself AT the
end of one year the closet will be opened, and
if the machine is still in notion your applica-
ton for patent will be granted.

market now-the highest price on record.

ing to force the firm of Jewett Bros. into bank
ruptcy for the benefit of the creditors of E d
Jewett & Co. The managing partLer Of jew
EFT Bros, Mr.. E. L. Jewett, testified that the
business of the last firm had beenconducted on

A Halifax paper says there is man from the
''States' who went to Nova Scotia at the time
of the wreck of the Atlantic, married one of the
girls at Prospect village, but of late has lived
in the woods near the village subssting upon
what he could steal and occasionally doing
clever job of highway robbery. The people of
Prospect have not taken any means to arrest
him, aud the city has no jurisdiction. The
Government has taken proceedings Tor his ap-
prebension.
