was known that they would make an

the Speaker.

Edison 10 about to astonish the world
with = new invention more wonderful
than the photograph. Hound him yes
terday at his laboratory in Orange, the
same u~npretentious, enthusiastic man he
vas twenty years ago. He calls his
latest invention the kintograph. When
4 b completed, and Edison is perfectly
convinced that its perfection is now
merely . question Of detail and expert
ment, It will be possible not only to hear
the voice Of q person coming from the
phonograph, but to see the persons face
Just az It was when the words were spoken,
with every change Of expression, the
movement Of the lips, the eyes, etc. II
Il Il . reproduction Of . scene upon
the stage the picture will be seen, the
actors moving about and making the
proper gestures as they speak. In the
case Of the head Of . person talking to
you from the phonOgraph 1t will be life
siso Il necessary. The mechanism by
which this is accomplished is extremely
simple, and the thing has been made
possible BY the discovery Of the Instan-
taneouS process Of photography, by
which animals in motion or q cannon ball
Aging through the air have been photo
graphed.
Suppose that Edison wishes to repro
duce the face Of Q man as he says:
How do You dot" through the phonO-
graph. II the time required for saying
'hoW do you do Is two seconds, an
apparatus Il arranged by which no less
than twenty photographs can be taken
At equal intervals during these two sec
onds. Now, II these twenty photo
graphs, which cover the whole space Of
time, at intervals Of . tenth Of . second
each, are placed upon Q wheel, side by
side along the rim, and this wheel is
made TO revolye in front Of q small look
ing Elass, the result in the looking glass
b mans face as he says: "HOw do
you dot"
The principle Is the same n in the
ehfldren'S toys in which . number Of
pictures, each slightly different, are re-
volved In front Of tie mirror, the result
being an animal or person in apparent
motion. To make motions Of the face
or Of the peFsons in the pictures exactly
coincide with the talk Of the phonO-
graph i, Of course, merely q question Of
nice adjustment.
Among the euriosities at the laboratory
] ~ . large sheet ten feet square,
upon which, BY means Of . magic Ian
tsFn, experiments were carried out every
night In pictuhng . man making q
speseh. First the man makes his speech,
the photograph taking down his words,
and the photograph making pictures d
him at intervals Of one-tenth Of q second.
Then the result Is thrown upon this sheet
By means Of . magic lantern, and the
man, life size, repeats In the picture his
performances. The results are already
70 wonderful that I do not see how any
n can doubt that the perfecting Of
the invention is merely q matter Of
detail.-EHekdnge.

whv the Peach Crop Failed.

Henry A. Ebert, veteran peach
grower Of Delaware, says that the real
cause Of the peach failure is that in
Delaware, as well as in most Of the other
peach growing states, the soil has abso-
lutely exhausted itself for peach pro-
duction. That is really the secret, and
the reason why the peach crop, especially
Of Delaware, has been growing less and
less in proportion to the amount of work
expended upon it during the last ten
years. Peach growers as general thing
in, America have made considerable
money, and have made it easily. /.
The care of their trees, once they reach
the bearing stages, costs but little, and
the conservative old fellows sat down in
their farm houses quietly and just let
the price Of the rich fruit drop into their
laps. They starved the soil, and they
are now reaping the consequences. They
are beginning to find out that the soil OF
peach orchard requires fertilizers just
as much as the wheat farm does, and
until such aids to fruit growing have
been properly used the peach crop can
not be expected to be as generous one

THE GREAT BERNHARDT.
THE ETHEREAL SARAH TO APPEAR
IN NEW YORK SHORTLY.
A Splendid Role Afforded the Illustrious
Star in the Character of Cleopatra
Shakespeare's Lines Improved.

LONDON, Oct. 19.-Sarah Bernhardt
will open in New York, February 9th,
in La Tosca, which will be followed by
Cleopatra.
PARIS, Oct. 19.--The first scene in
Bernhardt's production OF Cleopatra is
a scene of rare loveliness, representing
Antony's justice house, with the marble
quays of Tarus and the river Cydrenes
in the distance. The arrival of Antony
and Cleopatra and Antony's declaration
of his passion occur in the first act.
The scene for the second act repre-
sents hall in Memphis, approached by
an avenue of sphinxes, descending to
the Nile. The scene of revelry and dal-
lance in this hall is broken up by the
news of the death Of Fulvia and appeals
to Antony to save Rome.
The third act opens with a night
scene on terrace above Memphis and
the Nile. The play here follows the
Shakespearean lines closely. Cleopatra,
mourning her absent lover, receives his
letter urging her to send feet.
In the fourth act, Cleopatra who has
arrived at the palace in Actium, over
hears the love scene between Antony
and Octavia. Cleopatra enters. Antony
renounces her and a passionate dialogue
ensues between them, filled with mutual
accusations of bad faith, but ending in
a reconciliation. This is one of Bern
hardt's greatest scenes in the play.
The fifth act takes place at Alexan-
dria, in Cleopatra's chamber, after the
rout at Actium. Antony enters in
wretched state, and accuses himself of
cowardice. Cleopatra throws herself at
his feet. pleading for pardon. The SOL
diers burst furiously, in, clam
oring for the death of the sorceressr
Cleopatra admits that she is a magician (;
she displays the temple of Isis and sings
a weird incarnation to Typhon to dis
perse the vessels of Octavius. The i'm
mediate response is fearful storm that
shakes the palace foundations.
The scene changes to another shall.
Octavius enters and Antony, mortally
wounded, falls at his feet and dies Ca
ressed by Cleopatra, who, the
poison taking effect, asks to
be dressed in regalia. In be-
wildered speech, calling out to
Antony that she will follow him, she
dies with smile on her face.
With the exception of the third act,
the authors have struck an original line.
The play provides Bernhardt with a
splendid role. Its production has been
fixed for Wednesday,

One Hundred and Fifty Passengers
Narrow Escape from Death.
A Purse of $4oo Raised on the Spot for
the Heroic Engineer by the
Grateful Passengers.
Associated Press Dispatches. |


ERIE, Pa, Oct. ia horrible catas-
trophe was averted on the Lake Shore
and Michigan Southern today, near Sill
yer creek, through the bravery and cool
conduct of an engineer. A detached
section of an east-bound freight train
had been run into by another section,
and portion of the debris was thrown
over on the west-bound track, just as
No. 8, fast train, was going west at the
rate of fifty miles an hour. Engineer
John Burns, of the passenger train, saw
the distractions on the track ahead.
He saw that an attemptto stop his train
and jump would sacrifice the lives of his
$50 passengers. His fireman had left
him, but Burns resolved to stand by his
engine. He put on all steam, and opening
his sand pipes SO as to get frmer hold
on the rails, cut through the freight
cars and other debris on the track.
Burns, with wonderful fortitude held
the lever, and the moment he had
cleared the obstruction, reversed the
engine and threw on the air brake.
As the train entered the wreck, the
sides were torn out of three coaches.
The screams of women rose high above
the screeching of the steam. Although
the engine was dismantled, the brave en-
gineer emerged from the debris alive, but
covered with scars and bruises. Stout
hearted men embraced him Historically,
realizing that his heroism had saved the
train.
But one passenger was seriously in
jured, Mrs. Mary Kane, of bennington,
Ohio, who may die. Joseph Meyers, of
Cleveland, was badly hurt about the
head. Probably dozen others were
painfully cut and bruised. Not car in
the train left the track.
After the people were quieted, G. M.
Spitzer, Boston banker, headed list
and over $400 was presented to Engineer
Burns by the passengers.

ITALIAN ASSASSINS.
THE CRESCENT CITY'S REIGN OF
TERROR.
Forty More Italians Arrested on Suspi-
cion-The Police Now Certain They Have
Chief Hennessy's Murderer.

New ORLEANS, Oct. 19.-The police
tonight arrested about forty Italians
whom they found congregated in store
on Burgundy street, listening to an
harangue by one of their number.
Charging that it was an unlawful assem-
bly,, the police assembled in force and
gathered in the whole crowd. When
examined at the station it was found
that the men had just arrived from
Chicago this morning, and that none Of
them had any money. AS they could
give no good reason for having come
here,, they were booked as dangerous
and suspicious characters.
The police tonight also arrested Man
uel Pietro, whom they charge not only
with being one of the men concerned in
the Hennessy assassination, but actually v
the man who fired the fatal shot.
The police assert that they have the
case in excellent shape: that the mur-
derers have been arrested, and that
there is sufficient evidence to prove
that the murder was ordered by the
Matrangas gang. All the other Italian
prisoners, except some who are regarded
as important witnesses or accessories,
have been released.
Damaging evidence was adduced
against Macheca today, by woman
who lives next to the masters house.
She says she saw him there several
times just before the murder.
The Provenzano and Matranga fac
tions concerned in the tragic events of
the past few months, are bitter rivals.
For long time the Provenzanos had a
monopoly on the fruit unloading and
much other dock work, and were pros
pering. Matranga, who kept a
saloon. finally determined to go into the
unloading business himself. He gathered
about him a lot OF adherents and began
operations. War soon after broke out
between Provenzano's and Matran7a's
gangs, and finally eliminated few
months ago in the attempted assassina-
ton of lot Of. the Provenzanos.
They were on their way to J.. the
docks before daylight in wagon,
and, passing dark alley, were fired
upon by concealed assassins, with shot
guns loaded with buckshot. Two were
fatally and others seriously wounded.
Chief Hennessy soon captured the as
sassins. finding them, as he ex-
pected, members of Matranga's gang.
They were speedily convicted. Hen
messy declared his intention of roofing
out all assassin organizations, and as
neither side was above crime, he is
known to have incurred the enmity OF
both.
