A Rival to the Telephone.

Prof. Gray, whose claim to priority
of invention in producing atelephone
capable of articulate speech has just
been decided by the Supreme Court
in favor of Bell, now announces that
he has perfected an invention which,
in many cases, will supersede the use
of the telephone. He calls his new
invention the "telautograph.' He
states that he has tested it over and
over again, and on next Saturday
proposes, to give an exhibition of its
powers to some gentlemen from the
East, at Highland Park, his residence,
in Lake county, Illinois. q" By my
invention" he writes to friend in
Chicago, ."syou can sit down in your
office, take pencil in yourhand,
write message to me, and as your
pencil moves pencil herein my lab
oratory moves simultaneously, and
forms the same letters and words in
the same way. What you write in
Chicago is instantly reproduced here
in fac-simile. You may write in any
language, use code or cipher, no
matter, a fac-simile is produced here.
If you wish to draw a picture it IS
the same, the picture is reproduced
here. The artist of your newspaper
can, by this device, telegraph his
pictures of a railway wreck or other
occurrences just as reporter tele-
graphs his description in words =
The two pencirs-tlre one in the office
of the writer, the other at the office
where the message. is delivered
move spontaneously and there is no
reason, he says, why circuit of
five hundred miles cannot he worked
as easily as one of ten miles" The
process presupposes, as in the case
of the telephone, that the instruments
shall he alike at both ends of the
line. and that they shall he brought
into connection with each other
" When one person wishes to commu-
nicate with another by the telau-
tograph he pushes button, which
rings an annunciator in the exchange
or in the Office of the person with
whom he wishes to converse. Then
the first man takes his writing pencil
from its hoTder-and this may he pen
or pcnciI-and writes his message
upon a roll of paper. As he writes
so writes the pencil at tue other end
of the wire" The instrument. we are
told. will not cost more than fifteen or
twenty dollars, and it is claimed that
this form of correspondence-the
handwriting heing an exact fac-sim-
lie of the person at each end of the
wire-wil admit of confidential COM
munications, and will ohviate posi-
BILE Misunderstanding which may
arise when conversing through the
telephone. -Bdt. Sun.

Mr.. Nelson, an enlightened Min
nesota Republican, astonished his
brethren on that side of the House
last Thursday, by strong speech in
favor of tariff reform. 1t was not
honest, he said, to call men who ia
vored tariff reduction free traders
The men who opposed all forms of
tariff reduction were not the only
friends of American labor, nor were
they the only guardians of American
enterprise. The question of protcc-
ton or free trade was not fairly in
VOWED in the problem Congress had
to solve. The question was whether
the surplus should be got rid of by
extravaganza expenditures or whether
the taxes should be reduced by re-
duction of taxation. Concluding his
argument that the reduction should
be applied to the tariff and not on
whiskey and tobacco, he said :
Surely these were not the things on
which the poor laboring man kept
his family. Would it not be better
to give them cheaper clio thes and
food and shelter? He would put free
sugar, free salt and free lumber
against free whiskey and free tobacco,
and so would the great mass of the
American people.

DEATH OF THOMAS FALLs.-Mr.
Thomas Falls, resident of Dayton,
in this county, departed this life on
Saturday last after a long and pro-
tracted illness. His death was not
unexpected us he had long been suf-
ferer from consumption, consequently
the termination of life had been looked
upon by his friends rs matter of 4
few days or weeks. The deceased
was a brother-in-law of Mr.. Charles
Campbell, now of Charlestown, w.
Va. He was highly respected by all
who knew him, and in his loss the
family have the sympathy of the COM
munity in which he resided. The
funeral took place from his home on
Monday last.-Hnr. Spirit

VIM. phillips & Sons.

reporter for the Democrat visited
the sash and door factory of VIM.
Phillips & Sons the first of the week,
and was somewhat surprised at the
activity and amount of business being
done by this we'll known firm at the
present time. Mr.. Robt. Phillips,
as iovial and goodenatured a fellow
as you will7fnd in q days travel, full
of business tact and energy. and
withal fine judge of building mate
rial in its rough orsfinished state, Is
the handspring in the establishment,
and bids fair to become moving mo-
tor in the business circles of our little
Mountain State. He informs US that
their spring trade has opened.up with
bright prospects, and the year 1888
promises asreviSal in the lumber
trade. Their factory, but recently
fitted up with new and improved ma
chinery. is taxed to its utmost capac-
ity in filling orders now on hand. In
the course of our conversation, Mr..
Phillips remarked: g 1t is not gen;
orally known to the outside world
that we nave OWneu cOnITOlinS III
terest for the past ten years in saw
mill located in the rich pine forests OF
Rockingham county, Va, conse-
ouently we handle nothing but the
hest grades of lumber. and at the
same time are in a position to offer
special inducements to the trade. -
Mr.. Oscar NJ. Phillips, the junior
member of the firm. is what may
properly be termed, the mechanical
head of the establishment of a
quiet and seemingly difi6ent DISPOSE
ton. hut at all times courteous and
polite. and honest and upright in all
dealings with his fellow man. AL
though quite young. he is by inherit
ance naturally endowed with q high
order of mechanism, is nm excellent
draughtsman and calculator, and no
doubt some day will be shining
light in the mechanical world. Surely
the people of Jefferson ought to feel
proud of the enterprise of VIM. Phil
lips & Sons. and give them that SUBJ
stantial and liberal encouragement
which they have justly earned.
