RELICS OF noNApARTE.

Articles OF Apparel Worn by tho Littio
Corporal In the Campaign OF 1914.
The last genuine relics OF the first
Napoleon have now been transferred
from the Louvre museum to that OF the
Hotel des Invalides, says the London
Telegraph. They comprise an anthem
tic "Redingote grise," which cost 100
francs at Lejeune's, and the "little
hat" which was blocked by Poupard &
Co. and was afterward worn by the
emperor in the campaign of 1914. A
great deal of dispute and discussion has
arisen about these two articles, the
transfer of which to the Invalides has
long been delayed, as In January last
a representative of the Empress
Eugene put in q claim for them as
being the private property of Napoleon
Ill, and therefore liable to b0
restored to their owners. like other OBJ
jects lent to the museum. After care
full search there was found in the
archives of the Louvre q letter dated
February, 1854, signed by the imperial
grand chamberlain, the Duo de Bassano,
in which the chief conservator of the
Louvre was told that the emperor
wished the coat and hat to be placed as
uloIOki IC1kCo LII LuS u1uSCC uCS
Souverains. On the strength of this
letter the state has now asserted it's
rights to the curiosities, and presiden.
tial decree authorizing their transfer to
the Hotel des Invalides was issued re-
Gently. Among the other Napoleonic
articles sent to the Invalides are little
tri-color cockade In silk, which the en-
peror wore at Fontainebleau when bid
ding farewell to the Imperial guard, and
which he had in his hat when landing
at Porto Ferrajo in May, 1914; uni
form of a general of division in which
the first consul appeared at Marengo; a
state sword, engraved by Fillberg, of
Stockholm; flag of one of the regi-
ments Of Chasseurs Of the guard; the
seat used by the emperor in Saint
Helena, and, lastly, the camp bedstead
in which he died. This object was
given to Napoleon III. by Prince Murat.
Visitors to the Invalidcs will soon be
able to see those interesting memen-
toes of the great Napoleon, which have
been lying by in the Louvre since 1871.

THE SENATOR AT RENO.

It is refreshing to see something OF
our United States Senators once in a
while and have them show that they
feel an interest in the well-being Of
their constituents. Senator Stewards
speech last night at the pavilion was
appreciated one hundred times more
than it would have been if delivered
just on the eve OF the next campaign.
The Senator told many truths about
Eevada's agricultural possibilities
that should be needed. He gave the
people some advice that they would
do we'll to profit by. If our represen-
tatives in Congress would make a
practice Of coming home little
oftener and spending more time in
the State they would know better the
needs OF the people, make many warm
friends and give better satisfaction

NO NEED OF CHURCH.

sermOns Supplied by Telephone by an
EnterprisinR English Company.
The attempt to connect the pulpit Of
Christ church, Birmingham, England,
with the telephone system is not suf-
fered to become q mere barren expert
ment. The telephone company has
lately perfected the arrangements, and
is now supplying oral sermons at pri-
vate residences on a rather extensive
scale. Naturally, says the Chicago
Herald, 1t is the bed-ridden and the
sick who most appreciate the advan-
tage of being able to hear a preacher
without attending service. A dozen
yards or SO of loose, flexible cord is at
tached TO the ordinary receiver and a
special U-shaped instrument supplied
to fix on the head, with an ear box for
each ear. Thus provided it is possible,
it is said, for the sick to hear comforta-
bly, while in bed. In quiet room the
tolling of a bell can be heard half an
hour before services; the prayers can
be followed, the responses emphasized
and every word of the sermon distin-
guished; while solos in the anthems are,
we are assured, heard as distinctly as
II one stood next the singer. Even q
casual cough among the audience is
distinguished. There is stated to be q
lady at Smallheath who has been bed
ridden for three years, and whose spir-
itunl wants are thus supplied; another
at Edgbaston, who has not been able to
attend church for seven years; and in
the Birmingham jewelry district there
are dozen watchmen who, being on
duty every Sunday, could never hear q
sermon except in this fashion. Twenty
four calls, representing, it is calculated,
some sixty subscribers, are stated to
have been received at the telephone
Office from Christ church one night last
week and similar number In the
morning. Subscribers In Manchester,
! Nottingham, London, Coventry, Stat
ford, Wolverhampton and Worcester
have also availed themselves Of this CD.

from one to three simple applications made at

The Work or . Sword fish.

The Society of California Pioneers are the owners of a wonderful curiosity. It is section of timber taken from the side of the ship Powhatan. It in- cludes a portion of the skin. which is four inches thick, and piece of abutting knee. which Is nine inches thick; transversely through the whole of this a swordtish has dashed his sword. and the portion broken off is still embedded in the timber Tho sword pierced through thirteen inches of this solid oak, and the fish was going in the same direction as the vessel at that the ship being under good head of steam at the time, An idea of the strength which must have been oxerted can be obtained from the fact that a ritled six-pouuder could not have done more than pierce that thickness of solid oak. People on the vessel stated that they felt the shock caused by the blow, and thought that they had struck something floating beneath the surface. The sword is over six inches wide at the broadest point where it is broken off
