Chauncey NJ. Depew's speech at Chi
cago marked new era in the use of the
phonograph. For the first time on an
occasion Of this kind in this country a
speech has been taken down without the
aid of stenographers. BY the use of the
phonograph the entire speech was given
to the press two hours after 1t was deliv-
cred. 1t was feat unparalleled in the
history Of newspapers.
The method used was that of placing
an operator with the instrument in the
flies. The operator repeated into the In
strument the utterances of the speaker.
These were recorded by the instrument
upon cylinder, which, when filed, was
Withdrawn and replaced by fresh one.
The withdrawn cylinder was then car
ried from the stage and placed in another
instrument.
The second instrument ground it out
through rubber tubes placed in the ears
of swift operators ON typewriters. Thus
it was that the opening sentences of Mr.
Depew's speech were in the hands of the
various newspapers, and in some instan
ces actually in type, before the closing
sentences were uttered by the speaker -

A special from Springfield, O., says:
A few evenings ago the family of Chris
topher Menzel. a German truck gar
dener near here, were awakened by the
sound of heavy fall and subsequent
violent trembling of the earth. Rushing
out of the house they found that large
outbuilding had disappeared, and in the
spot where it had stood was a cavity
fully fifty feet in length and nearly that
in breadth. A sound OF water tumbling
and rushing over rocks and down pre-
cipice was distinctly to be heard, and in
approaching the brink Of the hole ice
cold spray was to be felt. The outbuild-
ing, which had evidently been sub
merged, had contained besides large
quantity of garden seed twenty or thirty
sacks of oats and millet, five grown pigs
and fourteen young ones, buggy and Q
truck cart, all of which had disappeared
before Mr.. Menzel reached the spot.
When morning dawned one Of the pigs
could be seen standing on rock, the fiat
top of which rose above the dark, rush
ing current, and after some difficulty it
was rescued. The stream, as nearly as
can be measured, is at least 100 feet
wide, although only about twenty feet
of its width is visible and only thirty Of
its length

Nearly sufrocated in a Trunk.

One afternoon Pearl, daughter of John
Gay, on Adams avenue, near Twenty
first street, thought she heard a child
screaming in the rear of the house. She
could see nothing, and wondered whence
the sound could come. She heard it
the second time, and proceeded down
the lot to see who it could be. On the
way she passed an old trunk, and there
imagined she heard something. Strange
as it appeared to her that sounds should
come from the trunk, she approached
and opened it.
To her astonishment she found hoy
there, o years of age, almost breathless
pale and the cold sweat on his forehead.
He proved to be Loney Rich, son Of Ber
E. Rich. He and others had been play

BRASS Ornaments.

Small brass ornaments cast or impressed
with the die are now being applied to
furniture in the shape Of rosettes and
kindred forms, being attached not only so
as to contrast with the wood, but TO en-
phasize constructional parts. This is the
revival Of fashion dating half a century
since and which long previously prevailed.
The startling effect Of this brilliant fire
gilt surface is pleasing to the eye, coming
well in contrast both with light and dark
woods. Separately, these ornaments are
unmeaning, but are made attractive by
the way In which they are displayed.
Some of the quaintness OF old furniture Is
due to their use, as well as to occasional
relief designs worked out Of thin sheets Of
brass, which take occasionally the place Of
carvings for centers Qf mahogany and ash
