WAR TELEGRAPHY.

an Interesting Experiment in Field Te1eg-
raphy In Connection with the French
Army Maneuvers - Evidently Patterned
After the American Service, with Some
improvements.
PARIS, Sept. 10.-An interesting tele-
graphic experiment has been success
fully made in connection with the ma
neuvers of the French army on the
eastern frontier. NJ. Wilton, inspector
of posts and telegraphs, recently pre-
sented to M. DeSelves, director-general
of posts, a large wagon of his own in
vention. The wagon is. lightly but
strongly constructed, and is fully
equipped with the electrical and me-
chanical appliances of different systems
of telegraphy. M. DeSelves ordered
this travelling Office to accompany
the army in its march, and directed
the telegraph employees along the
route to contribute in every way
possible to the success of the proposed
experiment. The wagon moved with
the supply and ammunition trains inn
mediately behind the rear-guard of the
army. By the employment of mounted
military linemen and the use of novel
and ingenious mechanical devices in
stringing wire from the nearest tele-
graph station to the wagon, the rear
guard of the marching troops was kept
in constant touch with the outside
world. The correspondent of the Paris
press and the foreign newspaper men,
accompanying the army, speak enthu-
siastically of service which made it
possible for them to communicate with
the papers direct from the scene of

DIPHTHERIA is epidemic in Shelby
vile, Ind. Thirty deaths occurred with
in forty-eight hours, and adults are be
ing attacked as we'll as children. The
physicians are alarmed at it's malig-
nancy.
THE recent heavy disbursements from
the United States Treasury have reached
the net balance, which, on September
1st, was 500, 900, 600 to S4s, 0OO, 900. This
latter sum includes s17, $40, 900 of sub
sidiary silver and SIS, 900, 600 in bank
repositories.
THE Treasury Department reports an
unprecedented demand for money from
the West for the moving of the enor-
nous crops.
New industries are established in the
South at present rate of about 5000 a
year, and they are of great variety.
WHILE the general appearance of the
cotton crop in Alabama is that of health
fulness, much uneasiness is being caused
by the manner in which it is shedding
its squares and bolls. This is a new
phase at this stage of the crop and the
only reason which can be assigned for
1t is the recent contiued cool weather.
AMAsA LITTLE, 12 years old, living
near San Antonio, Texas, on the 18th,
was killed in singular manner. Climb
ing into a corn crib with a doll in one
hand and a pair of scissors, she lost her
hold and fell five feet The scissors
penetrated her throat and severed the
main artery. She did not live an hour.
