pencil. "Our artist on the spot'' may
thus telautograph to his newspaper a
complete and vivid picture of railroad
accident, steamboat explosion, an
anarchistic riot, military parade, or a
political procession. The instant that
he completes his picture in Chicago, for
instance, that instant it is complete in
the newspaper Office in New York.
That this invention is one of the
greatest in this age of surprising inven-
tive genius; that it viii revolutionize
telegraphy and telephony; and that it
will secure for Prof. Gray a wider fame
that that won by his predecessor, Prof
Morse, in the same field of investigation
all goes without saying.
The advantages of the new invention
over all present means Of sending long
and short distance messages, are many
and obvious. 1t makes every man his
own telegrapher. He sits down and
writes his message, and in that act it is
sent instantly to its destination. There
is no transcrlbing necessary at the other
end. The Chicago correspondent of The
Evangelist might still, as now, occupy
his watch-tOwer, and at the same time
do his writing in New York at desk
adjoining brother Dey's. a correspon-
dent of the Associated Press in Washing
ton might make long report of debate
in Congress, and as fast as he writes it
there, have it simultaneously reproduced
in his own handwriting in the leading
newspaper offices of a score of different
cities. By this invention, too, perfect
secrecy may be secured in the transmits
sion of messages, only the senders and
receivers having knowledge of their con-
tents.
Prof Gray has been experimenting
and laboring at this invention for a
period of seven years. He will have his
reward He will prove to be one of the
| great benefactors of the race.

IMPORTANT IF TRUE.

According to an. article in the New
York Evangelist, which we reproduce
below, the world is about to be startled
by an invention which will cast even the
achievements of Edison and Bell into
the shade. Should the claims put forth
on behalf OF Prof. Gray's discovery prove
to be well founded, we may well take
long breath and exclaim "what next?"
The TeIautOgraph.
Prof. Elisha Gray is just entitled, in
the estimation of a great many intelli-
cent people, to the credit of having been
the first to invent the telephone. In
giving this glory TO another, he has been
demanded Of his just due. But the fame
Of having invented the telephone, to
whomsoeEer given, is now about TO be
altogether eclipsed by an invention
WHICH Prof. Gray has completed, and
which is destined, without doubt, TO
gupersede both the telegraph and tele-
phOne. though the former may still be
required for the longest distances. Prof.
Gray calls it the telautOgraph, because
the sender Of a message can, by writing
it at one end, instantly reproduce 1t In
his own handwriting, and with his own
autograph TO authenticate it, at the other
end.
The set of instruments required TO do
this consist Of q transmItteF and receiver.
The transmitter is simply an ordinary
pen or pencil, which Is attached at Its
points to two silken cords which are
placed at right angles to each other.
These cords are so connected with cleo
trical instruments that they Impart, by
means Of magnets attached TO the re-
ceiying instrument, corresponding move
ments of the receiving pen, which is Ike
the pen or pencil of the transmitting
pen. and is held between two rods placed
AT right angles to each other. These
rods convey the electrical current, which
moves the pen up or down or horl-
zontally, according as the transmit
ting pen is moved. Every move
ment of the latter is thus in
simultaneously and accurately reproduced
by the former, though the two may be
thousand miles apart. But not only has
| the inventor made provision for thus
moving the two pens Simultaneously he
has also provided an arrangement where
| by the sender of the message is able, as
he writes, to dot his is and cross his It's ;
and 20 turn back, if he desires to do SO,
| tn make erasures or interlineatlons, and
to move the paper at the receiving end
so that the message may be reproduced
! as II Is first written, in successive lines,
one below another. In short, whatever
the writer of the message might do with
a pen or pencil, with the aid Of the cleo
! trical instruments and the connecting
wire, he can by the aid of these do sim
ultaneously at both ends of the wire, and
so that the message received shall be as
truly in his own handwriting as is the
| one sent; and it requires no more skill
or previous training to WELD the trans
uniting and receiving pen, than it does
| TO WELD the pen with which these words
are written. Nor is this all. Not only
J will the telautograph exactly produce the
/ written message; it will also, with equal
accuracy, reproduce the strokes and lines
and nice shadings of the artists pen OF

The baseball league Of the south will

clubs. This is an assured fact. President
Rozier, Of the Memphis association, re-
turned from the Birmingham meeting yes
terday with disappointment written in
every lineament OF his handsome counte-
nance The Birmingham meeting was
full Of interest, and every effort was made
TO induce Atlanta and Augusta or Atlanta
and Nashville 10 come in, but IL seems that
Gradyyille can't afford II. And yet il
seems beyond belief that such is true,
when the fact is considered that were At
lanta to enter the league with club
they would be given park free and SIS
for every game played ON the grounds.
The latter alone would be as present OF
$1,000, and the use OF the grounds still
greater figure to them. Poor Atlantal As
TO Nashville, the baseball patronage is lost
for another year by the remembrance how

they loved mammon better than the pen

A Horrible Death.

GEORGETOWN, o., March s.-Mandy
johnson, colored woman, went out TO dc
housework yesterday. leaving her baby
in care Of another young colored woman,
Katie Banks. Katie fell asleep in the
chair near the stove and awoke 10 find her
clothing and the baby's cradle ON fire.
The frightened girl could not escape from
the room, the door being locked, and in
her agony she threw herself on the bed in
vain effort TO smother the blaze. A
neighbor, hearing her cries for help, and
seeing smoke issuing from the house, ran
10 the building and forced the door. The
girl rose from the bed, staggered a few feet
and fell. She presented horrible sight.
Her clothing was entirely burned from her
body, leaving only q narrow waistband
about her. Her hair was burned of hel
head, and at the slightest touch the Skin
would peel from her body. Both she and
the baby will die.
