Submarine TelephOning.

Mr.. Charles Ward Raymond, @. E.,
describes in Van Nostrsnd's Engineering
Magazine the results of some experi-
ments with the telephone in submarine
operations at depths not exceeding thir-
ty feet. One telephone (Phelps' Du'
plex) was placed in the divers helmet,
and fastened in such position that, by
simply turning his head, he could place
his mouth or his ear to the instrument.
The other telephone was placed on the
scow which carried the sir.pump and
divers helpers. Using Edison's carbon
transmitter, with the sddition OF an
induction coil and cell of battery, the
arrangement was perfectly successful
Conversation was carried on with the
utmost facility it was not necessary To
give the diver any signal other than 9
simple "hallo |" 1t was also found that
the diver could talk in the helmet with
out putting his mouth to the instrument
and be beard plainly, and therefore he
could continue his work and converse
ton at the same time. The battery,
induction coil and trsnsmitter were
placed on q shelf on the divers scow,
and together occupied no more room
than weuld Webster's unabridged dica
tionary; the telephone in the helmet
occupied but little room, snd, Of course,
was not at all In the way.

BAILEY SPRINGS.
A Brief History Of one of the Most fa-
nous Springs In North Alabama


Everybody knows what and where are
the Bailey Springs, of North Alabama,
but there are some items in the history
OF that celebrated watering place that
are not generally known. The medicinal
character of the water was discovered in
lS43 by Mr.. Jonathan Bailey, who was
very sick with dyspepsia. His physi-
clans desired him TO visit the Virginia
Springs, but he was unable to be carried
to them even in q carriage. There was
an insignificant little spring in ravine
on his iarm which was always covered
with rsinbow.hued scum, and the
neighboring country people had for sew
eral years been in the habit of using
this scum ss sslve for sore eyes. de
concluded to drink the water, and 10 his
astoniAhment his cure WAS soon effected.
The news coon spread abroad, and suffer-
ers with other diseases were brought in.
1t was found that scrofula was invsria'
bly, cured by the water; that dropsy was
always relieved when relief was possible ;
that diseases of the skin and OF the kio-
ueys we're speedily affected by it; and
finally that many of the diseases OF
women were permanently y ersdicated by
its use. In 1853 Mr.. A. G. Ellis, OF
Panola county, Miss, visited Bailey
Springs for the relief of gravel and
strangury. He had been treated by the
leading physicians of the south with un-
satisfactory results, but in two weeks
from commencing the use OF the water,
he was well man. He was 20 de-
lighted with this unexpected result that
he Immediately took steps to purchase
the property. and since that purchase it
has remained in the possession of his
descendants until the present day. A
most remarkable instance OF the potency
of the water was its prophylsctic effect
during the awful epidemic of last year
People from Memphis, Chattanooga
Florence, and other injected points
focked to Bailey for refuge because
there they could find comfortable accom-
modations, pleasant 81 ciety, abundant
amusements, and no quarantine reeuls
tions in the way. Some of them came
fresh from the bedside of friends, some
from the side OF the grave; but, although
some who mad been exposed exhibited
premsnitory symptoms, as sOOn as the
water established its powerful drsir
upon the skin and kidneys, they at once
recovered, and not one case Of yellow
fever was developed at Bailey, After
ward, when the wonderful virtue OF the
water, as a preventive, began to be un
derstood, IL was sent to nurses and ply
sicisns and others exposed, and not on
person using the water took the disease
Another curious oircums'snce first no
ticed in the laundry OF the esLablishmen
] WAS that the undergarments of people
who had been much exposed, were sctu
ally dyed of a saffron yellow by thu
profuse psrspirstion induced by th'
water, until the system had becomt
thoroughly cleansed. Such are some o
the curious facts in the history OF BAILEY
Springs.

admitted to privileges that, in Christ
ian communities, are deemed infamous
until the church and state have given
their blessing and their sanction. In
the morning the warrior presents hi
bride with q new dress-a present from
his relatives. She accepts 1t with many
thanks. The man leaves for his own
house and sends his mother or sister TO
bring home the girl. She then returns
TO her own house and gives the new
dress to some female relative, takes
what belongs to her, goes back to her
husbands tepee and all is settled, until
one party or the other gets tired of the
arrangement. In such case, after wait
ing a proper period either one can

and separating to no end. Among the

marriage is about the same as with

tribes are rank polygsmists and pay no
heed whatever to marriage ceremonies OF
