The Coming Time When n Voice VIII
Cross the Continent.

Boston Budget
Ever since the introduction OF the telephone
frequent improvements have been made in
the Instruments used, and experiments have
been made for the purpose Of securing n sys
TEN OF long-distauce telephoninS. Thursday
some successful experiments were made in
telephoning between New York and this city,
tie results OF several months investigation in
one direction, and this, it IS claimed, proves
that as soon as the arrangements are COM
pleted mere will be no difficulty in commune
cati' between two cities more widely separ-
att But this result was not secured by any
in proveInent in the telephone or receiver,
thu ordinary instruments being used for the
experiment, but a line constructed of simple
copper wire, very hard rolled and OF high
conductivencss was used.
Mr.. Theodore n. Val, tho general man
ager Of the American Bell Telephone COM
pany, to whose endeavors, together with
those IF his cO-woTkers, is due this discovery,
in speaking Of it, said: "The wire had TO be
expcrimented on for months before the proper
compactness and conductiveness could be at
tanned. Copper wire has been used before in
cables, but It was not so hard rolled as this.
Another Rrent trouble lay in the fact that tho
ordinary copper wire wns not strong enough
to sustoin its own weight for long distances.
This trouble has row been obyiated. We
NfN tS NiAAH1A btAtlbSuc- LII LtCAg L tiOh
the very one TINT l use daily on the about
town wires. We had no trouble at all in
hearing. Moreover, this line was run by 4
cIrrurtotts route to New fork, subject TO
every practical impediment. We had the
new wire run on the regular line poles, With
the Other wires all arounI 1t, and covering a
much longer distance than an air line TO NEW
York would. Our distances have been
limited in tho rast, but now there seems to be
no limit. 1t will be possible to talk over the
new line with New York, with Washington,
and even with the western cities.
"The experiment shows that the only pre-
vention for lOng-listance conversation has
been removed. If tho people call for it the
wire will be run The expense will be
heavier. Why, we expended $4,000 in per-
fecting tho experiment. Then the wire is
much more costly than ordinary wire. As
the case stands now, it is far easier to talk
between country places than from u city like
Boston or New York. In the city so many
wires enter the ground that the earth seems
overchargcd with electricity, making con-
versation over tho wires less clear. Then,
between places on different sides OF Il noun
tain conversation Is hard, for the water run
ming down each slope leaves a dry space IN
the middle, which is detrimental 70 distinct
telephoning. Other difficulties which exist
will be modified or removed in time, and
then tho system will be complete"

DIR. Oswald in Popular Science Monthly
The p%ro1imHte caus, OF sleeplessness is
plethora Of the cerebral blood vessels, and a
palliative cure can bs effected by anything
that lessons the tendency of the circulation
toward the head; but II permanent cure may
require time and patience. By night studies
brain workers sometimes contract chronic in
spmnia in that worse form which finds relief
in the stupor Of low fever, alternating with
consecutive days Of nervous headaches. Re
forming topets often have TO pass through
the same ordeal, before the derangeI nervous
system can be restored to its normal condi-
ton. Fresh air, especially OF low temporal
ture, pedestrian exercise and an aperient diet
are the best natural remedies. Under no cir
cunIstances should sleeplessness be overcome
10y narcotics, An opium torpor cannot fulfill
the functions OF refreshing sleep. We might
as well benumb the patient by a whack on

months, 1t may be none in pots. The plants
thrive in warm and moist regions, and its
season lasts from May to November. At

as it yields to the slightest frost. Try a few

THE DETECTION FROM BLAINE.

The Independent movement inaugural
ed by such distinguished men in Boston
last night demonstrates conclusively that
the first wild enthusiasm over Blaine's
nomination has passed away and given
place TO more mature deliberation and
conviction. The attitude toward Mr..
Blaine, assumed by some of the most in
~lnential Republican papers may be " poor
straw to indicate the way the wind is blow
ing, but this in connection
with the ominous silence maintained
by the New York Independents, coupled
with the outspoken and aggressive stand
taken by a branch Of the party in Boston,
emphasizes the growing conviction that
that the Republican standard bearer will
meet with unexpected opposition in his
own party household.
Mr.. Blaine may be first in the hearts of
the voters of his party, he may be the
very beau ideal of a statesman to the
youthful rank and file, and he may
possibly even achieve the presiden-
tia office; but with many of the
most influential thinking men of his
political faith his success would be re-
gardcd as little less than a calamity. No
impartial observer can help being struck
by the strength and character of the
movement being %inaugurated against Mr..
Blaine-a movement, by the way, as yet
merely in its incipiency and requiring but
the c~ountenance of distinguished men,
which it has now received, to swell 1t into
vast proportions.
The opportunity which the Democrats
have long sought is brought nearer than
ever by the detection in the Republican
ranks. All that is required of the party
to secure the entire vote of the indie
pendent Republicans is to put up q man
who will command the unqualified ne
spect and confidence of the people. The
names of several such men have been
mentioned in connection with the nomi-
nation.
The delegates who 90 10 the Chicago
convention in July have u grave samd sol
IN duty to perform. If they do their
whole duty, leaving aside mere sectional
feeling and keep the good of the whole
party steadily in view, with them rests
the naming of the next President of the
United States,
VIII they do it?
We have every confidence that they
will.

From all accounts the 100 Italian
workmen at present in Denver are in n
condition of deplorable destitution. They
had been employed in the work of railroad
construction. hut since last december have
been unable to secure anything to do.
The onseqnenc is that with very rare
exceptions they have been living from
hand to mouth on the thinnost kind of
scrap diet, and strong, lusty men per
fectly willing I o work, have been
roaming about the streets of the city ac-
mally beseechmg for Il crust of bread TO
appease the Unsuitable cravings Of hunger.
At a meeting held Thursday evening res
olutions were adopted depicting their ter
ribly destitute condition and calling upon
Governor Grant and the County Commits
sioners for aid. If they can be provided
with transportation to Il point where a rail
road is being constructed, they agree to
allow the money to be taken out of their
first months g The condition of
these unfortunate people moves the heart
TO pity, but at the same time it empha-
sizes the necessity of more stringent laws
to prevent the unloading of a pauperized
population from foreign countries upon
our shores. These men nre not only willing
to work, but are anxious to secure en-
ployment Usually, however, as soon as
the work is completed that they were i'm
ported to perform, they do not readily
find other work to do, and perforcc re
main idle or possibly drift into dangerous,
iy bad habits. They should never have
been forced into this pitiable position.

Sir Walter Scott tells u story of his child
hood which well Illustrates the unreasouing
hatred felt by the everlasting growl school
fOr the doctrine that conduct should be di-
rected to the increase of happiness. One day
his hcalshy young appetite made him enjoy
very heartily the brose or porridge Of the
f'unily breakfast Unluckily, he was tempted
to say nloudhow good he found his fool. His
father ut once ordered a pint of cold water to
be thrown in, &c spoil tho taste of it'll Possibly
Ii meant to iuculcate what he regarded as a
high moral habit; but rather more probably
Mr., Walter Scott, Sr, objected to his sons
enjoying what he had no taste for himself.
Much Of the sourness Of the growl philosophy
msy be thus interpreted.
