Petroleum PhenOmens.

The development Of oil territory
has brought to light numerous phe-
nomenal wells. Millersburg, But
ler county, produces refined IL
Eliminating oil, ready for the lamp,
and of excellent quality. The we'll
known "hole" is not without an
equal. Some months ago, as is we'll
known, party of operators from
Titusville aud st. Petersburg began
operations in the newly discovered
oil-region of Trumbull county, Ohio.
They have struck vein of petroleum
of character heretofore unknown
in the oil business. It is lubricat-
ing oil of the finest quality, and it
comes from the earth refined and
ready for use on the finest machin-
erv. This we'll is flowing five bar
rels per day, for which the opera
tors have ready sale at SIG bar
rel. Ordinary oil, in the Pennsylva-
mia regions, is now selling at G2 cents
barrel. The tract in which the
phenomenal we'll is located is near
West Mecca. Two thousand acres
have been leased at enormous prices
by other spectators. The discov.
erels of this refined lubricatinS oil
are putting down other wells on the
land.
Among the sand rock taken from
Tev q Thurston's new oil we'll near
the State Liue, at depth of 1000

RADICAL PRESIDENTIAL PLorrlNGs.
A Washington special to the New
York Times of the 10th inst. says:
Considerable importance is attached
to the meeting of the National Execu-
tive Committee which met at Wash
ington last Wednesday, December
the 18th, to select Chairman to sue
ceed Zach. Chandler. Partisans of
Presidential candidates have already
begun an active canvass for the place,
and it is understood that Cornell is
urged by the friends of Graut. This
fact will, of course, combine the
friends of all the other candidates
against Cornell, and the question OF
of the Chairmanship of the. Commit
tee may become test of Grants
strength in the Committee. There
will also be a lively contest over the
selection of the place for holding the
next National Convention.

Hearing with their Teeth.

The audiphone, a new instrument
designed to enable the deaf to hear
was tested, last week, at Al Ess,
Twenty-second street, in the pres.
ence of DR.. Peter Cooper, the Rev
Drs. Thomas Gallaudet and j. NJ
Stevenson, the Rev. Robert Colyer,
Prof. jenkins, of the Institute fo1
the Deaf and DUMB, Mr.. Henry
Bergh and many 9TH Is. Prof. Jen.
kins had with him a GLASS of mutes.
Richard G. Rhodes, of Chicago,
the inventor, said that be had been
deaf for number of years, and that
he discovered the principle OF the
audiphone by accident. One night,
after making many fruitless experi-
ments, with the view of finding some
way of hearing his watch tick, he
listlessly touched the case of the
time-piece to his teeth, and was sur
prised to find that it's ticking was
distinctly audible to him. This dis
covery led to the. invention of the
audipone.
The instrument has the shape and
size of an ordinary stiff fan, and it
may be used as such. 1t is made of
composition said to possess the
property of gathering sounds and
conveying to auditory nerve
through the IN Mum of the teeth,
the external eafgbaving nothing to
do with hearing Ein this manner.
The material resembles gutta per-
cha. @SRspH cords running from the
thin ed8es and conysrging at the
handle Serve to- bend tKSMblade of
the instrument to the proper curve
for hearing tosthe best advantage
under differenk conditions. When
in use the edgs of the thin curved
blade is touched to one of the upper
teeth. tsa
The mutes tested the audiphone.
A young man who had been deaf
from infancy heard words spoken in
the tone of ordinary conversation.
A little girl who was born deaf in
iicated by signs and looks of sur
prise that she heard the sounds of
voices; but having never before
heard any sound, she did not know
the meaning of the words. Instru-
lnonts were f5.sseed IN the hands of
the entire class, and lady sang,
accompanied by an organ. At the
sound of the first notes, the faces of
The mutes expressed great surprise,
md when the voice of the singer
rose and fell, and the harmony of
the accompaniment blended with the
voice, the pleasure Of the mute
listeners was manifested. Their
Faces lighted up and their hands
were moved up and down as the
pitch of the air rose and fell. Some
Of the mutes waved their hands with
\ peculiarly graceful movement to
show that they could distinguish be-
tween the volume Of the crescendo
passages and that OF the less loud
portions.
The inventor claims that totally
deaf persons may be made to hear
ordinary conversation by the use of
the audiphone, and that they may
then be taught to speak.-N. Y. Sun.

A NOVEL GAME OF BASE BALL.-A
very amusing game of baseball was
played yesterday afternoon, at the
Resseation Grounds, between the Gin
ci1eati Red Stockings and nine
composed of the members of the Col
vile Opera Burlesque Troupe. The
Red Stockings batted and threw left
handed, and were compelled to make
the tour of the bases in the opposite
direction--running to the third base
first, then to second, to first and then
home. The ludicrous errors made in
attempting to throw left-handed were
exceedingly funny, and when the
player forgot himself and used his
right hand, the striker was declared
not out by the umpire. The Cincln-
natis won by score of 35 to 81
