Sight Transmitted by Wire.

Thomas A. Edison announced the
other DAY that he is at work on a new
invention, by which sight. as well as
sound. may be transmitted by electric
wire. 1t seems, however, that young
German named KOrZel has anticipated
him. The Centralblatt fur Electrotech-
mix gives an interesting account OF an
exhibition recently made by this
gentleman. in which two of his
instruments in different cities were
connected with telephone wire. The
features of the person standing at one
a glass plate at the other end, and the
larger type in newspaper held before
the instrument in one city was easily
read in the other. Everything seen was
greatly reduced in size, but this was be-
cause the glass plates were small, this
phenomenon being governed by the
laws of optics, and not those of cleo
tricity.
The secret of the wonderful inven-
ton lies in the sensitiveness of selen-
ium to the effects of light. When ray
of light falls on plate of selenium the
electric cOnductivity of the metal
changes. Mr.. Korzel uses plate COW
cred with a composition which he calls
bromide of selenium gelatine for "col-
lecting" the image of the person using
the telephone, which is then transmit
ted by the same wire that conducts the
sound of his voice and thrown, appar-
emily without the use of any further
apparatus, on-a glass plate at the other
end. In this way the persons using the
telephone cannot only hear but see each

CURRENT COMMENT.

A. G. Austin, president of the board
of education, made an address before
the board last Friday, and, in reviewing
the courses of study and expenses at
tending their administration, made some
pertinent remarks which voice the sent
iments of the working classes of this
city. He says: "Our expenses are in
creaslng, and enormously. Not simply
on account of the increase in the num-
Der of children, but largely because we
are grating upon our school sys-
TEN various supplemental accom-
plishments, the benefits of which
are enjoyed by but few. Out of
the $4,000 public school children, not
400 can be instructed in the various de-.
partments of manual training, and vet
to accommodate these 400 requires
supervisor, five instructors and an an
nual expenditure of at least $1,000. We
have now six supervisors and superip-
tendentS outside of the departments of
music, penmanship and drawing, where
three years ago one man did the work.
A considerable portion of this force is
unnecessary, and its employment, in
nv opinion, is contrary to sound judy
ment.
II do not object to manual training in
carpenter work, carving and metal work,
to sewing OF physical culture, all OF
which are already introduced or are
strongly urged for introduction into our
schools, provided they are made parts
of symmetrical and thoroughly organ
lied system, and their benefits are eX-
tended to as large number as possible;

LAKE MICHIGAN SCENE.
Escape From a Steamer Disabled

had been visiting my uncle in the
country, fifteen miles FROM c.. Mich
igan, and on this date, Sept. "a, 1885,
was OIL my return home to Chicago. 1t
was beautiful evening.
l boarded the steamer at o'clock
that evening, which was to leave at $50.
The half hour passed quickly, watch
ing the hustle going On below. AT 5:45
exactly we were heading for the blue
waters of Lake Michigan out of the
Grand river. Out on the lake the
steamer tackled for Chicago.

self the best l could until 1 got sleepy,
and was given berth near the boiler,
where heard the putting of the engine
plainly. But. in spite of the noise, |
was lulled to sleep. About midnight l
was awakened by escaping steam, and,
getting up, learned that in race with
the Goodrich. which had caught up to
us, the steam pipes burst. There was
no one to help us, as the Goodrich
steamer made straight for Milwaukee,
and soon LETT us out of sight.
We were beginning to get alarmed.
Black clouds in the east showed a storm
coming, and all on deck began to relieve
the boat of its cargo. The storm had
reached us, and was already tossing the
steamer like an egg shell. The passen-
gers were being knocked all over with
chairs. tables. and everything else. We
were just realizing our fate: 1t came
up so Unexpectedly.
1t was an awfnl scene on board. |

was nearly mad with excitement. and
can't remember. Mothers were praying
and crying for help, and some ran for

on his son. Another man put one
around his waist and one on each leg.
by this time the water Gained some
what. and gave us all opportunity to
launch the lite boat. The steamer was
nearly full Uf water, and more was
pouring in.
The captain shouted, "Away into the
life boat" Only few rods from the
steamer we saw her sink, and some of
the. passengers sank with her. We
rode in the life boat two hours | think,

to get light. and that same day at sum
down we landed safe and sound amidst
crowd of curious people. who had
probably heard of our misfortune, and
all wanted to hear the story.

days was walking the streets of Chi

Peculiar Keligionists.

In Leeds valley, in the vicinity of
Birmingham, Ala, there is a colony
composed of a religious sect known as
the Shermanites. There are about 100
families, and happier, more contented
people cannot be found in the world.
Their religious rites and ceremonies are
peculiar. Who founded the society
more of them seem to know, but it is old,
as the fathers and grandfathers of the
present generation were Shermanites.
They claim to follow the teachings of
the New Testament in spirit and letter,
andthey believe that only Shermanites
will inherit the kingdom of heaven.
They have churches and preachers, and
worship in manner similar to many
other religious sects. One of their pc
culiar rites is the washing of feet. A
footwashing service is held once every
month, at which the preacher washes
the feet of every member of the church.
Themembers then in turn wash the
feet of the preacher and of each other.
They are industrious and scrupulOusly
honest. Divorce and drunkenness are
unknown among them. The men never
cut their hair or boards.

MINNEAPOLIS TOPICS.
Events of the Past Week.

The K. OF L. Building association di-
rectors met on Friday evening at the
Labor Temple to audit their accounts
for the month. Nearly all of the second
floor of the temple is now rented, and
the aggregate monthly receipts give
fair margin above expenses:
The Peoples Coach line stockholders
met last Saturday evening to elect di-
rectors, but adjourned until Monday,
when the following men were elected:
T. j. Heinrich. S. E. Olson, John Swift,
Il. H. Lucas, D. j. Adams, T. A. Clark,
Lewis Wilson, j. l.. Mcdonald, l.. Hof
sted, James Doughterty and Mike Mo
gan. The directors met Friday and
elected the following officers: Vice
president, }. Swift; secfetary-treasurer
Il. A. Clark. The president has not yet
been chosen. II. A. Clark accepts his
office only until suitable successor
can be found. James Dougherty is and
has been candidate for superintendent
since the company was organized.
Although an eX-employe of the street
railway, many stockholders object to
perience in the duties of that position.
No other candidates tor the place are
mentioned, but at least two others are
known to be quietly working for it.
The Single Tax club held its regular
weekly meeting last Tuesday evening
and continued the discussion OF the best
method of putting the single tax into
operation. -.
The Third Ward Eight-Hour league
held lively mass meeting at the corner
of Washington and Sixteenth avenues
north last Wednesday evening. John

will be remembered as the one at which
G. j. Buell. was Out-talked, but he
wasn't talking ''eight hours" that time.
The Sixth ward eight-hour meeting
which was announced for last Thurs
day was postponed until next Thursday
evening. Aug. 90, at the corner OF Wash
ington and Cedar avenues south.
