Aids for Deaf Persons.

In store window in Broadway,
whore dazzling collection of spectacles.
variety of ear-trumpets, aud several
dozen opera-@lasses are displayed, a
number of ordinary-looking canes and u
commonplace-looking umbrella stands
in the corner. A placard affixed to one
of the canes designalc5 it rs an acoustic
cane. Another placed on the umbrella
conveys the information that with the
SsiIta 1oe of the acoustic umbrella n
deaf person can hear conversation when
the person speaking is at distance. A
second inspection of the canes after
reading the placards discloses the fact
that they consist Of bamboo sticks with q
vanished black metal top and Il very
small horizontal piece for y handle.
A salesman in the store exhibited u
cane to q Tribune reporter, and twisting
it in his hand disclosed q row of hole
encircling the black metal. Placing the
same horizontal piece in his ear, in the
cay aud natural way that som, men
put the handle of cane in the mouth,
he assured the reporter that his voice
was so loud that he could hardly endure
it. He then showed q small aperture
through the horizontal handle. This con-
neoted with an car-trumpet ingenious
ly arranged in the top piece of the cane.
The reporter thon held the handle OF
the cano to his ear. 1t sounded as a
sea shell would. When the salesman
spoke his voice was increased several
times its volume. The chief value OF
the invention lies in the fact that the
cane or umbrella may DO used without
betraying the fact OF the owners deaf
ness.
"It is wonderful" continued the
clerk, how m lch people dislike to ad-
NIT that their hearing is defective
They come in and ask to look ut ear
trumpets for friends. We know that
they want them for themselves. People
who are hard of hearing are just as
numerous as persons who are near
sighted. If tho wish to ignore deafness
was not SO pronounced, ear-trumpets
would be as common as spectacles.
"We have sold thousands of these"
continued the storekecper, showing q
miniature silver ear-trumDet, calculated
to fit inside tho ear. "They are popu-
lar because thoy can be used without
exciting remark"
Another miniature ear-trumpet was
shown, made from two metals, the union
of which produced electricity intended
to have vivifying influence on dead or
dying nerves. The Appliances for the
relief of deafness are all costly. The
canes are S25 q piece, and the miniature
ear-trumpets 3S pair.-N. Y. Tribune,

Detected by Tobacco.

Henry Sutton, a resident of Cape
May, after seeing the city elephant on
Friday night, fell among the Pnilistines
about Seventeenth and Market streets,
and lost ST., lot of papers and a
brand-new plug OF tobacco. He was
taken to the Twentieth District Police
Station. Near davbreak yesterday
Thomas Cairns and Michael Kelly were
arrested for drunken and disorderly
conduct near the scene of Sutton's spOli-
alton. They were placed in cell ad-
joining that which contained Sutton.
When tho latter sobered up he felt con-
sumed by thirst, and to start the saliv-
ary glands into action, begged chew
of the weed from his next cell neighbors.
When brand-new plug was handed to
him through the bars his eyes dilated as
he recognized the familiar slab, and at
once he realized where his cash had
gone. = He informed the turnkey of his
suspicious. When the party were
brought before Magistrate Lennon, SUIT
ton told his story, and Cairns and
ThOmpson's effects were searched and
all of Sutton's possessions were recov-
cred. Then the prisoners, instead of
getting off with drunken fine, were
held for highway robbery, much to Sut-
