A Telsphon. seventy Years Old.

Tho speaking-tube is q contrivance
mentioned In ancient writers, and comes
down to us Or survives Just as candles
and oil lamps have not beon altogether
superseded by gas and electricity. In
1867 Robert Hoole, Of London, de-
scribed how he transmitted sound
by means Of wire to considerable dis
tances. Wheatstone described his "tele-
phone" in 1891, and In 1854 Charles
Eourseul said: Suppose man speaks
near movable disk, sufficiently pliable
TO lose none of the vibrations Of the
voice, that this disk alternately makes
and breaks the currents from an cleo
trio battery, you may have 1T any dis
tance another disk which will simul-
taneously execute the same vibr~tions

tant future speech will be .transmittsd

1t is reported that three nails of the.
true cross have been found in very sing
ular place, namely, in the ruins of the,
theater at Zurich which was burned
down. They were in little ivory casket
of admirable workmanship, together
with manuscript on parchment, and
were bricked up within little cavity of
the substructure. 1t is presumed that
these relics were hidden by monks dur
ing the reformation.

DRUNKENNESS DEFINED.

A Lawyers Poetical Plea on Behalf Of n
Convivial Client.
"Drunk or not drunk?" That was the
question which presented itself for set
Element the other day at Ripon, Eng,
says tho Newcastle Chronicle. On be-
half Of the luckless man who was ac-
cused of having imbibed too freely it
was submitted that he was only too
"fresh." The legal gentleman whose
services had been retained further
maintained that person who could
walk as his client had been able to do
was not drunk within the meaning Of
the act, and he reminded the bench that
1t had been written that
He Is not drunk who from the floor
Can rise again and still drink more;
But drunk is he who helpless lies,
Without the power to drink or RISE"
This poetical plea, however ingenious,
as 1t unquestionably was, was not re-
garded sufficiently sound to hold water,
and so the customary fine was imposed.
1t has lately become necessary to apply
tests in such cases, but this does not ap.
pear to have been done in the present
instance. When the licensing act of
1872 came into operation publican in
this neighborhood resorted to the hap
py expedient of fixing the limits Of
supply by the ability Of his customer to
utter, without stumbling, tho words
'truly rural" and some time ago 1t
Jared badly with poor fellow in Lon
don, who was SO far gone as to be unable
to spell ''constitutionar' or ''statisti-
CAL" The law, however, takes no cog.
nixance either OF ''shibboleths" or SPELL
tng-bees In such matters.

On her who shortly will be minc-
Little Annie Rooney.
There is a charming touch in that.
The devotion Of this mysterious Joseph
is prompt, regular, and utterly inde-
pendent of tho weather. This is proper.
The young man who hasn't pair Of
galoshos Is unworthy of tho name VI
lover.
In lyrical choral burst Joseph--who
has no kinship with his Egyptian name
sake-goes on to emphasize the sweet
concord that exists between Miss
Rooney and himself. Incidentally he
hints that his intentions are perfectly
honorable. He has gotten out tho
marriage license and has not engaged q
divorce lawyer. Thus ho warblcs:
She's my sweetheart, I'm her beau;
She's my AMMO, I'm her Joe.
Soon we'll marry, never to part.
Little Anrio Rooney Is my sweetheart.
In the second stanza Of this dainty
lyric Joscph's domes. .icity shines out.
He admits that he forms family circle
every night This is not reprehensible,
but it certainly seems trine prema-
ture. There Is an element of selfish
ness in it, too. Tho man who would
not be satisfied with little Annie Rooney
and be content to wait for tho family
would want to own Chicago and then
weep because he didn't have Oshkosh
too. This is the verse:
The parlor's erl.ll, but neat end clean,
And set with taste &c seldom seen,
And you can bet tho household Queen
IL Littlc Annie Rooney.
The fire burnS ClcCrfuilv md BRIGHT.
AS family circle round each night
We FORM and cvcry ones delight
Is Littlo Annie Rooney.
So the sweet, bird-lilie idyll drifts on
toward fat two chairs, table, bed,
and bakers bill:
wc'vo been engaged close On year,
Tho happy tino is drawing gnoar;
I'll wed tho ono lovo SO dear,
Little Annie Rooney.
My friends declare I'm in Jest,
Until tho time comes I'll not rest;
But ono who Knows its value best

Tho man who wrote this dainty ditty,
redolent of lovc and family circles, is

dom.
The song runs to pretty lifting

pose once at least to Mrs. Frank Leslie.
That is an exploded idea now. But it Is
q fact beyond all quibble that tho man
who can't sing Little Annie Rooney"
has no right to live. lis o duty he
owes to society. II he can't sing it--and
somc men can't sing, although they do
not know it--ho con whistle It. And

fact goes to show that Joseph is young

WILLIAM NJ. FITZHUGH.

SURVEYOR,

Surveyor.
The name Of William Mcpherson Fitzhugh a
member OF the CarnalI-Fitzhugh- Hopkins Company
is before the public the Democratic nominee for
the important position of City and County Sur
veyor. As such, brief sketch of him Will be of in
tereSt 10 every property-Owner and voter in the
city.
Mr.. Fitzhugh comes of an old and historic family
OF Maryland, and himself born In that State In
1853 Ten later his family came to this state
and he was sent to one OF the public schools
he obtained the rudiments of an education From
the public school he was sent to the University OF
California where he graduated with honors In the
class OF 1875 at the age of 22 years. HIS choice OF
profession for atterlife that OF civil engineer
ing, and since his graduation at the Berkeley Uni
versity he has followed that honorable and respo-
siDle calling San Francisco has been his place Of
residence ever since he came to this State and In
the course Of the duties assigned him he has been
Identified with some of the most important engi-
neering enterprises and Government surveys within
the State lines.
When William almond Hall, the eminent en-
gineer who for many years was engaged In some of
the most important surveys of the State and also
acting as a United States Government surveyor
was in the field. he chose as his associate and as
sistant young Fitzhugh whose services were
deemed invaluable. and, in numerous instances Mr..
Hall showed the high appreciation he had of his
young friend and colaborer. His superior attain
ments were acknowledged everywhere, and the
members Of the profession, always ready TO recog-
nize without envy superior prominence d not fall
TO admire the rare skill and judgment he exhibited
In numerous and efficient undertakings The yalu-
able reports prepared and submitted by Mr. Fitz-
hugh bear the Impress OF a master mind which had
comprehensive knowledge OF every detail of the

practical work and experience, have caused him to
be regarded as an expert any branch OF the en-
gineerng profession Add to this the qualifications

as man successful in public affairs.

Company, but at the same time he continues tho

ment. and an uprightness of character that vii,
make him valuable member OF those to whom

lions relating to the facts of his naturaliza-
tion, giving time, place. court, etc. A cltl-
zen by birth, however, should not be called
upon to answer such questions, and yet the
stupid officers time and again are caught
reading off the printed question: Where
were you born p? Answer--San francisco,
south of Market street Q.-When and
where were you naturalized?
Adolph Packsher, who registered in the
Third of the Forty eighth was asked, after
it had been ascertained that he was born IN
Germany and that his parents were never
out of that nation, 'Where did you reside
when your father was naturalZed ?"
One of the certificates made out yesterday
showed that the person registered was born
in Illinois and naturalized in New ork.
Another that the applicant was born In
New Jersey, but never having flied his dec
laration of intention to become citizen,
was therefore not entitled to register.
One foregn-born person applied to regis
ter in one of the outer precincts OF the
Forty-eighth District who could not produce
his naturalization papers and acknowledged
that he had never taken out any. He first
declared his intention in San Luis Obispo
County, in 1872, and has voted at every cleo
ton since on those papers and three times
in this city. That person will not vote this
year, it is needless to add.
Henry Edwards, of the firm of c. & z. IL.
1yrrell 81 Co., answered the Inspector that
he was born in Massachusetts,.
"Where were you naturalzed ." was the
next question, and without waiting for an
answer lie again asked: Haven't you got
your naturalization papers with you"
The returns from the precincts when
footed up yesterday showed the first day S
ably are little misleading, as they include
no doubt some 800 or 400 of yesterdays en-
rollment as well. In 1883 the first day pre-.
cinct registration numbered S733
