WOOu otOkOb hhO AHbbOhk CEbs
DOadwOSd Cor. Troy Times,l
At present there are four differ
ent stage routes running into Dead
wood, from Bismarck, Fort Smith,
Sidney and Cheyenne. The latter
was stopped and robbed three times
in succession, last week, by some
of the most expert road agents the
country ever heard Of. The first
night they attacked the stage be-
tween the Chevenne liver and Hat
creek. Once tney made the mes
senger surrender the treasure box,
which contained $500, and then
they told him he ought to quit
working for a company that did
not carry more money than that.
The second night they stopped the
stage again in the same place and
asked for the box. They were told
it was bolted to the stage. They
then ordered the passengers, six
in number, to get ont, holding the
drop" on them with their guns,
and made them all sit down on the
ground while they tried to unfasten
the box; but having no tools to
work with gave it up for a bad job,
and robbed the pas, engers Of all
the money and iewelry they had,
amounting to $4,000. While they
were trying to open the box one Of
them found u box of cigars in the
stage belonging to one Of the pas
sengers, and passed them around
to the party sitting down, and they
all smoked together. The robbers
were all masked and well armed,
and bidding the passengers good
bye, told the driver to start. On
the third night they stopped it
again in the same place and took
the treasure box away from two
we'll aimed messengers, who tried
hard to protect it, but were not
quick enough to keep them from
getting the "drop" on them,
The box contained $4,000 in gold
dust and $20OOin drafts and checks
The latter they handed back, say
ing they had no use for them.
Duimg the excitement one Of the
passengers discharged his revolver

accidentally, and one of the road
agents fired, wounding the driver
in the side. AS soon as he found
out his mistake he said it was the
meanest thing he had ever done in
his life, and he was sorry. They
told the messenger to tell the COM
pany to send them down a pair Of
gold scales, as they had some diff
Guilty in dividing the dust with q
spoon. They were five in number,
and all had horses. 1t is supposed
they are a party that left here fol
the Big Horn country, and are al
well known.

PrAe.icaI Uses Of lhs Telephone

Practical Uses of the Telephone.
Boston Transcript
The latest form of Professor
Bells telephone has the whole ma
chine, both for speaking into and
hearing out of, reduced to the size
and shape of an ordinary door
knob. A shiny black piece of thin
iron the size and shape of a three
cent piece let into the surface of
the mahogany knob is what does
the talking. Concealed in the
wooden stem Of the knob is the
magnet from which proceed the
silk-covered wires which carry the
viva voce message. There are two
knobs, SO that two may listen to a
reply, or a single listener increase
the amount of the voice heard by
holding one of the knobs to each
ear. A common electric bell ope-
rated by the same wire, to call,
completes the equipment. 1t is
still wonderful, Notwithstanding
the increasing commonness of the
telephone, to hear a superintendent
or head Of a house in the city
making inquiries and giving orders
to his foreman out at the mill or
factory twenty miles away, and re-
ceiving equally detailed answers
and inqHiries for instructions in re-
turn, such as could hardly have
been transmitted to the "piano.
playing" telegraphs, so costly in
time would conferences of that
length have been. So large has the
demand become that the price for
the use Of the telephone, which the
patentee does not sell, has just
gone up from $40 to $50 a year. 1t
seems to lis, however, that the per-
fecting Of this most beautiful and
important invention has yet further
to go. A great advantage, be.
sides speed and facility, ovel
the old telegraph in dispens
ing with the transmitter and
the writing Of the dispatch, is in
the possibility Of having messages
as private and confidential as per
sonal word-of-mouth communica
tions. Telephony leaves no writer
messages on file, and takes no thir(
person, in the shape of telegrapher
into secrets of the communication
Spite of all the oaths that tele
graphers take, it is well understood
that no communication Of grea
! Importance on business or politics
is safe unless it be in cipher. ThC
telephone is therefore essentially
and theoretically a means Of whis
! pering into a partners or hench
mans ear what is for that ear alone
| In practice, however, it is as ye
) found necessary to speak in a lou(
: tone and with enunciation, which
would preclude all condolences tina
: a mans clerks may not'share, un
less deafened walls and door
seclude him from the business il
which the telephone is employed
This defect is no doubt something
that will disappear in the develop
ment Of the invention, so rapid an(
successful hitherto. Meanwhile thu
gains over the former means o
communication are truly immens,
-immeaSureable, in fact, to presen
experience with the great revolu
J tionizing invention.

To Khadijah, wife of Mahomet,
historians trace much that is nOblest
and best in the Koran and -Moham-
medan religion. The prophet was
twenty-five and she forty years old
"a rich, powerful, intellectual wo-
man when she married him. She
was the first convert, and embrace
ing TIE new belief with all the fiery
religious zeal Of her sex, for twenty
five years she was the backbone OF
Islamism. She stood by her hus-
band and poured out all the re-
sources at her command-wealth
enthusiasm, intellect and affection.
After her death Mahomet was in.
consolable, and married another
wife in two months after she died.
