A new telephone, the invention OF
Prof. A. E. Dolbear Instructor in physics
at Tufts College, is announced. 1t is
claimed to be in several particulars an
improvement on the instrument now in
general use known as the bell telephone.
Among the advantages of the new in
strument these are named: That it
permits of communication orally over
much greater distances; that it
is free from disturbing sounds
such as have been described as clubbing.
cracking, suffering and whizzing
sounds" which are produced by electrical
action in the ordinary instrument; that
the receiver, or that part of the instru-
ment which is held to the ear, is much
more durable and therefore more reliable
because of the greater simplicity of its
mechanism that it can be manufactured
at smaller cost; that by dispensing with
the permanent magnet, the expense and
inconvenience incident to frequent re-
newals of these magnets is avoided and
that the receiver being lighter in weight
is correspondingly more convenient in
manipulation.

"THE CYCLOPEDIA WAR;"

THE Cyclopedia War and the Literary
Revolutions are working wonderful and
happy results for the readers of books
and searchers after knowledge. The
great Library of Universal knowledge"
is announced to be completed and ready
Tor delivery to purchasers, the early
part Of July. 1t is probably the largest
and most important literary work this
country and the century have. seen 1t
is based upon Chambers Encyclopedia,
the last London edition of which is re-
printed entire as portion of its contents,
a large corps Of American editors and
writer's adding thereto a vast amount
of information on about $4,000 subjects
in every department of human knowl-
edge. Chambers Encyclopedia, whose
distinguished merit is universally known,
is the laborious product Of the ripest
British and European scholarship, but
being work Of foreign production it
has been naturally deficient in its adap-
ton to the wants Of the American
readers. In this new form it is most
thoroughly Americanized, and becomes
at once the largest and most complete
encyclopedia in the field, at a mere
fraction of the cost of any similar works
which have preceded it, containing
about 10 per cent more matter than
Appletun's Encyclopedia at less than
one-ffth its cost, and 20 per cent. more
than Johnson's Cyciopedia at little more
than one-fourth its cost.
The superlatiye value and importance
Of this great Encyclopedia however, lies
especially in the fact that it is brought
within the reach of every one who as
pires after knowledge and culture 1t is
really library of universal knowledge.
1t brings a liberal education easily
within the reach of every plow-boy.
Every farmer and every mechanic owes
it to himself and to his family that such
cyclopedia shall henceforward form a
part Of the outfit of his home To the
intelligent man in every walk of life a
Cyclopedia is indispensable. 1t is issued
in various styles, in Is large beautiful
octave volumes, varying in price from
$15 for the edition in cloth, to $25 for
the editionlin full library sheep binding.
Liberal discounts even from these extra
ordinary prices are allowed to clubs, and
the publishers besides propose during
the next two months to distribute $40,
900 cash in special rewards to.persons:who
forward clubs of five, ten, or more sub
scribers. The American Exchange, 764
Broadway, New York, are the publishers,
who will send sample pages and full
particulars free on request.

AFFAIRS at Albany are becoming more
ane more mixed, and it seems to be conce-
ded that the present legislature will not
have the pleasure of electlng successors
to Conkling and Platt. The vote has re-
manned substantially the same since the
first ballot Conkling has strength
enough to prevent the election OF an adj
ministration candidate, and will unite
with the democrats to secure an adjourn
ment, it is reported, before many days.
The investigation of the Bradley bribery
case is bringing out some ugly facts, and
the air is full of scandalous charges OF
bribery. How much truth there is in
the charges it is difficult to say, but the
impression is left on the mind that the
New York legislature is far from be-
ing body of pure men. Altogether at
fairs have bad look, and worse things
could happen than an adjournment, not
withstanding it may result in the election
of two democrats to the United States
Senate.

A CONFERENCE of the temperance men
and women of the state was held at Mad
ison last week Tuesday. The conference
was made up of temperance advocates
from all parts of Wisconsin, and men and
women in favor Of the cause, whether be-
longing to any organization or not, were
allowed to participate in the delibera-
lions. There was a large attendance and
the leaders in the movement voted the
conference a success. Papers were read
from prominent temperance men and
women of the state urging a more vigor-
Gus prosecution of the temperance work.
Resolutions were adopted pledging men,
bers to more activity in the cause, and
the line of work as indicated by the re-
solutions is in the direction of a prohibit
DRY law in Wisconsin. A Joint stock
Company was organized with an unsub-
scribed capital of 100000 to raise money
to defray the expenses of speakers and the
distribution of temperance literature fay
oring the amendment A share of the
stock costs one dollar. The members OF
the conference also pledged themselves
to vote for none but temperance men,
but no distinct state ticket was seriously
talked of. A Central Committee was ap-
pointed, however, with instructions
to call state temperance Convention il
the political parties put in nomination
candidates for whom temperance men
can not consistently vote. 1t is not at all
likely that the occasion will arise neces
stating call for a temperance conven
ton.

it: He will not take sides with either inc
