Thomas A. Edison. This gentleman is the
inventor of the Automatic Telegraph Quad
ruplex, Carbon.Telephone Stock Indicator,
Electric Pen Airaphone, the marvellous
Speaking Phonograph and score or more
of similar machines.
He is also the discoverer of the electro
photograph, by which dispatches may be
telegraphed without magnetism. Scientific
men regard it as his greatest discovery, and
predict that it will some day prove of inn
mense value. Mr.. Edison is a man of thir-
ty-One. The reporter gives two columns of
closely printed matter on his great inven-
tionS and marvellous discoveries
That portion of the article relating to the
wonders of the speaking phonograph is in
tensely interesting. 1t appears that Edison
will be able to make the BedlOe Island statue
talk and whistle SO as to be heard for miles
around. The Sun says editorially: If the
owners of nlaterializcd spirits could have
got hold of Prof. Edison's speaking phonog-
raphy and kept it from the public there
would undoubtedly have been a great re-
vival of spiritualism throughout the coun
try.
With this machine materialized spirit
could have talked in the voice and tone OF
the dead person it was supposed to repre-
sent, and it is reasonable 10 infer that the
most obstinate skeptics, recognizing the
voices of their friends, would have beer
willing to acknowledge that the medium
held communication with the shadowy res
idents of another world
