Spelling BACKWARDS. !.


In the plantation Of Oakheld, Maine,
there is a girl who possesses the faculty
Of spelling difficult words backward with
out hesitation. Her name is Hattie NJ.
Drew, just passed her twelfth birthday,
and residing with her parents in Oakfield,
who are people Of moderate education,
living upon farm in rural community.
While this little girl is bright and smart
a. the average OF her mates, she never
attracted any particular attention until,
little more than year ago, it was acct
dentally discovered that she possessed
the singular gift of spelling any word
with which she was acquainted back
ward and without hesitation. At q
spelling match recently held in the
school which she attends, without any
warning. she stood before the audience
for some ten minutes, spelling words
selected at random, but without any
previous knowledge Of what they
were to be rapidly and correctly. ex.
cept one or two which she could
not spell in the proper way, and
when prompted In the correct spell
ing would Immediately reverse. Among
the words which she spelled were these:
Galaxy, syzygy. astronomy. robin,
photography, difficulty, attendance, in
divisible," etc., and many other words Of
equal length and difficulty. All Of these
were spelled as rapidly as the eye would
follow, without q single misplacemento Of
q letter. The girl says that 'sshe can
see the words in her mind, and knows
no reason why she should not read the

The Electric Light and the Tele-
phone.

Mr.. --Howland, the manager Of the
Company which furnishes Los Angeles
with electric light, WIS., in Anaheim on
Tuesday 10 see whether il was not pos
sible TO organize company here to sup
ply the town with the light. To pro-
cure the dynamo machine, engine, masts,
wire, etc., would require not less than
Is, 900. With that sum o complete
plant can be secured, and the labor Of
one man would be all sufficient to run
tho works. The Company which own
the patent right ask no royalty other
than . certain proportion Of paid up
stock. Small companies such as the one
proposed here have been formed in
number of instances, and success
uniformly attends them. The success
Of the electric light in Los Angeles is but
synonymous with the success Of the
light elsewhere. Mr.. Rowland began
his enterprise in the teeth Of many diff
culties and discouragements. At the in
oipiency his anxiety arose from doubt
ss to whether he could overcome the
prejudice of the people and secure suffi-
6ient "a ronage; now, after the lapse Of
but few a months, his anxiety arises
from an inability to furnish light to
those who desire it. The capacity OF his
machines has been taxed to the utmost,
and another is now on the way, and until
It u placed in position he cannot place
his lamps In all the stores and houses
where they are wanted.
Mr.. Rowland has fully explained his
plans TO Mr.. J. Benherscheidt, who will
endeav0r to secure the cooperation of
our people, and do what he can towards
organizing the Anaheim Electric Light
Company.
On the sAme day the agent Of the Tel
ephone Company canvassed the town in
the interest Of that twin product Of mod
ern science, and we understand he re-
oeivsd substantial announcement. He
proposes 10 run the line from Los An
gelea to Anaheim and Santa Ana.
