Ancient Newspapers.

AT the coming Centennial Newspa-
per Exhibition at Philadelphia it has
been decided to display copies of an
tique journals and other curiosities of
newspaper literature. To this inter-
esting collection all persons having
ancient, quaint, or curious specimens
are invited to contribute; and should
the response be as hearty and general
as we hope to find it, to be not only
leading trait of the Newspaper De-
partment, but also one of the salient
attractions of the exhibition as whole.
All having the ability and the will to
aid on the project should transmit
their consignment without delay to
the Philadelphia Office Of the News
paper Exhibition, Ledger Building,
ITO South Sixth street, Philadelphia.
Whilst on view, these exhibits will
have attached to them labels designat-
ing by whom they are contributed,
and all consistent care will be taken
to preserve them from damage. Af-
ter the close of the Exhibition they
will be again at the service of their
owners, or, in the absence Of diff
ferent instructions, will be transferred
to some historical society or museum.
During the late war there were
many newspapers issued which illus
trated the straits in which their pub
fishers found themselves. Pink, blue,
and yellow sheets, wrapping paper, and
many other substitutes were pressed
into the service. Specimens of these
now possess curious interest.
The advantages to the public of
such gathering are manifest to de-
gree which renders elucidation unnec-
essary, and the opportunity to do a
very useful act is placed within easy
reach. A single copy of some senile
broadsheet may not be of much worth
to its proprietor, yet in conjunction
with others it will make up worthy
collection. Many people there are
who, having preserved such curiosi-
ties for years, can turn them to little
or no practical account, and it is not
too much to hope that the response CIV
en- by such will be ready and general.
Without loss to themselves, they can
materially benefit visitors to the Great
Centennial Exhibition and apprecia-
bly, advance patriotic movement.

No More Blu sted Water Pipes and Eter-

In the long catalogue of useful inventions
which genius has given to the world, there are
perhaps none of more practical value than the
patent corrugated expanding water conductor

phia The conductor was invented by VIM.

into general use. la all this time it has never
failed to stand any amount of cold weather.
proving impregnable to the frosts and tbaws of
the most changable winters. Architects
builders and practical timers almost universal
ly recommend it, and the number of medals
and prizes which have been awarded it, testify
in the highest terms of its merits. Among the
prizes awarded to it we may mention the high
est premiums at New York in 1873, at Cincin-
natl in 1874, and Buffalo in both 1873 ard 1874,
and at the Franklin Institute in 1875. The
pipe is so constructed in waves, as we might
call what is more scientifically termed corruga.

banding ice, thus leaving no chance for suffi-
Gent strain to cause it TO burst. At various
tests this conductor has been placed alongside
ordinary pipe, both being filled with water and
solJered at both ends, and the water inside al
lowed to freeze. The ordinary pipe in almost
every case burst. while the corrugated conduct

"Who nre the Arxaussv

A company of ladies and gentlemen assem-
bled last evening in the capacous pa.lors of
DR.. L. A. Foster, to listen t. lecture by John
Fiske, author of Cosmic Philosophy, and other
works that have within few years attracted
much attention. The parlors were well filled.
and the lecture was received with evident inter-
est by theaudience. Mr.. Fiske is preparing a
course of four lectures for the Peabody Institute
in Baltimore on "Our Aryan Ancestors, their
Early Culture, Myths, and Folklore Two of
the lectures are completed and have been deliv-
cred in Milwaukee, st. Louis and other places.
The first lecture of the course was the one given
last evening. Subject, "Who are the Ary-
ans?' The lecture was, as the title would in
dictate, mainly historical and descriptive, and
belonged to the class that cannot be reported.
1t may be safely asserted that the persons
present know more about the Aryans to-day
than they did yesterday. Mr.. Fiske's manner
of reading is such as to arrest and keep at
tention, though without ornament Of eestcu-
lation or artificial mannerisms of auy kind.
His reading is incisive and rapid, and ener-
getic; easy to listen to. As has already been
intima'ed he held the close attention of his
audience. After the lecture the company re-
NAMED some time, engaged in conversation,
and in listening to further discourse by the lee
turer. Mr.. Fiske returned TO Cambridge by
the midnight train.

TRAVELLERS abroad accord the palm of ex-
cellence to the Windsor Hotel, on Fifth ave-
nue., between Forty-sixth and Forty-seventh
streets, New York. They agree that there is
no finer hotel in every de tail for the comfort of
its guests. Within three years of its existence it
has acquired a cosmopolitan reputation. With
out detracting from the merits of other houses,
the proprietors claim that it has no superior IN
the world. A dignifed courtesy among the
guests, and an unobtrusive provision for the
qualification of its patrons, place it in the front
rank of hotels.
