Mr.. +. {. Martin, editor OF the Electric
Engineer, recently told an amusing tele-
phone story:
Five or six years ago he received letter
from Mr.. John Crawford, an electrical en-
gineer, then engaged in telephone work in
Russia, detailing some successful expert
ments over the line from Moscow 10 B0lo-
g0e, distance Of about 400 miles. Mr..
Martin printed-this. The following week it
was printed by another technical paper,
which took occasion TO amend the spelling
Of the word BOlOgOe, and made IL Bologna.
The week following another paper figured
out that from Moscow 10 Bologna must be
more than 400 miles. and 50 made il 1000.
The week after that another paper cOnclu-
ded that BOlogne in France was meant. and
made the necessary correction. The story
was then ready for its travels. and has
since been glObe-trOttng at terrific space.
Mr.. Martin says that he has started several
corrections of it, but, as Il stern chase is
prOyerbially long one. he is afraid that for
ages TO come papers all round the world
will be telling Of the wonderful work OF
those Russian engineers in telcphOnng a
distance of 1000 miles, when the simple
fact Of the matter was that tire distance was
only 400 miles, and that the work was done
by an American, who sighed To get back
to Gods country" and AT last threw up
his job in disgust. because as he humOrOuslN
put it. "the telephone couldn't stand the
Russian language

presiden, Carpot,sGood Sense.

The release of the Duke Of Orleans, il
seems. was the work Of President Carnot
himself. \ large section Of the Republican
party was unwilling 10 have him distin-
gushed by any special act Of clemency.
Their fay0rlte idea was 10 pardon him on
the nth of July, the anniversary Of the fall
of the Bastile. This date il often selected
as sort Of general goal delivery for cul-
prts toward whom the government Is will
ing 10 show clemency. President Carnot,
however, preferred not 10 extend the pardon
in such a way that the Royalists would
have felt IL an ,ailrOnt.

lage of Washington. Unable 10 endure the
modification of seeing his rival inaugu-
rated, Adams, with his Cabinet and hang

nighttime, showing in this a weakness so
ill-becOming man who had filled the high
est Office in the country. The wrath and
disappointment Of the opposition were be,
yond description. In Connecticut, where the
spirit Of Federalism was the most fierce
and unaccommodating, the Legislature in
the spring OF 1901 made a general sweep Of
Republicans from the State Offices. 81 had
foreseen years ago" wrote Mr.. Jefferson,
''that the first Republican President who
should come into Office after all the places
in the government had been exclusively &C.
cupied by Federalists. would have a dread
full operation 10 perform"
These are the facts attending the rule of
the Federalists, the friends Of patronage.
and an energetic government, and il is
clear that with these. and not with Andrew
Jackson, lies the origin of the spoils sys-
tenn. Mr.. Jeifers0n's administration was
not without its errors, but il was in every
way contrast 10 the twelve years rule OF
the federalists, rs hope 10 show In an

A Salvation Army Omciaps Tough Experi-
ence With a Firemnn.
Some time ago a Pittsburg detachment
OF the Salvation Army wandered down
into Manchester, Allegheny. In front Of
the Hope fire engine house they COM
menced a campaign of prayer and
racket. They intended to convert the
whole neighborhood. They reckoned
the fremen among their worst foes. They
feared the constant intimacy of the fremen
with confagrations had made them less
fearful of the fires beyond than they other
wise would have been.
After season of prayers and war dances
the leader approached one Of the fremen,
saying: "Brother, come with us, we are on
the road to heaven"
''How long have you been on the way?''
stolidly inquired the fireman.
"Two years." replied the missionary.
And you've only gotten as far as Pitts
burg?"
"Yes."
"Well, then, guess I'll take a shorter
route" said the fireman, as he took a chew
of tobacco and wandered back to the house.
