I think one of the great sources of my
fathers power was his magnetic influence.
After long years of familiarity with his
playing am almost persuaded that he eI-
ercised species of hypnotism with his vio-
lin. There Is tradition that very few
people could hear him render such piece,
for instance, as "Homs, Sweet Home" or
his own composition entitled "A
Mothers Prayer" without being
moved to tears. Keenly as he felt the
ravishment of thronging audiences and
great as was mis- power upon the platform
do not think that he was ever at his best
outside his own home. I remember during
his intervals of rest from professional labor
he used frequently retire with his family to
Valestrand, our old family country seat in
rural Norway, near Bergen.
Here, under his own roof and in the
midst of his family, his soul seemed to
gather peculiar inspiration. Often in the
gray twilight have sat and listened with

ouent figure at one of the uptown hotels.
His name is Richard J. Gatling, snS he is
the inventor of the Gatling gun, which has
played in modern warfare larger and
more effective part than any other instru-
ment of destruction. Dr. Gatling has been
q great traveller as we'll as a close and care
ful observer, and is a delightful and in
Itructive companion. While chatting with
him the other evening he told me the curl
Gus and interesting story of the origin of
the Gatling gun. DR.. Gatling was born in
South Carolina, and received his medical
training here in New York.
I'm 1861" said be, 81 was living In In
disnapolis. Ny residence was near the
depot, and often saw troops of volunteers
leaving for the front, or when the dead
bodies were brought home for burial 1
was surprised to note that the number of
men killed by sickness was far greater than
those killed BY ball or actual battle. One
day I observed that of nineteen corpses
which arrived at the depot only three had
been killed in battle. Then the thought
struck me that if a gun could be constructed
capable of doing the work of hundred
men and requiring but two or three to oper-
ate it, the horrors and the duration of war
would be wonderfully lessened. I set to
work at once, and in few months COM
pleted the first Gatling gun. My first guns
were hlilt in Cincinnati Hnd were able To
fire from $50 to go shots per minute.
Difficulties That We're Overcome.
Six had been completed when the factory
burned down and the guns were destroyed.
Following this accident had 13 guns made
at what is now the type foundry in Cincin-
natl. and those sent on by my partner, a

assistants soon discovered that by holding
the sheepskin diaphragms in front of their
mouths and emitting cultural sound be-
tween the lips peculiar noise approaching
music could be produced. It was some
thing similar to the alleged music produced
by covering comb with thin paper and
humming tune on it.
Partly the Result OF an Accident.
SIN passing one of the. men engaged in
playing on diaphragm one day, Edison
playfully attempted to stop the noise BY
touching the projecting metal pin with his
finger, and no sooner mad he done 50 than
he gave one of his peculiar starts ,Eh,

a rapture shall never forget to the strains
that he alone could draw from his fsvorite
instrume ent, while we who listened were
carried away to higher spheres At times
his lofty flights of thought and passion
stirred me so deeply that before knew it
the sound of my own sobbing awoke me to
nv senses. Philosophers may attempt to
account for this extraordinary power with
learned theories, but to me it was delight
full hypnotism.
Proofs of His Magnetism.
There was q woman in Spain who, during
one of his performances, fell so completely
under his mastery as to betray all the out
ward signs of mesmerism. My father was
a man of immense physical strength, and
from this 1 have no doubt his magnetism
proceeded. He had a very deep chest and
long, sinewy arms and a nerve not easily
disturbed.
On one occasion, while he was playing in
Madrid, he was visited by newspaper
writer who had basely misrepresented him
in the public prints. My father requested
him to retract what he had written. He
refused to do SO. Whereupon my father
seized him by the collar, and, throwing open
the window, held him outside at arms
length. It is needless to say that he very
soon changed his mind.
Owing to his peculiar build he had a
method of holding his violin and also Of
handling his bow which cannot be success
fully initiated by ordinary players. His
bridge was so nearly fiat and his bow SO
heavy that when occasion required he could
play continuously upon four strings OF the
instrument at once or upon any OF them.
This required nicety and precision of e1-
ecution possible only to man possessed OF
great muscular power and extreme steadi-
ness of nerve.
Many Early Disappointments.
When he was in England during his
early life an incident occurred which
illustrates this remarkable strength with
which God had blessed him. Malibran
was to sing at great festival in Liverpool

zach one of perhaps 10000 packages
contains so many brilliants. After thew
are disposed If the rare stones are intro
duced, Here there are sapphires as big
as nuts. There lies black diamond
almost as large as the twelve pearls that
surround it. Here again is a necklace
made of fifteen emeralds that would
make rs many snuffbOxes, certainly not
big enough for NJ. Hyacinthe, of the
Palais Royal, but too big beyond a doubt
for the nose of Mile. D.

pieces of ancient jewelry known! 1t is
necklace that belonged to Madame Ia
Princesse de Guemenee. Mounting,

The necklace is passed from hand to

attention. The eyeglasses come into

upon some faces. At last the necklace
is passed to Michel. He is the great
judge. He takes the thing, weighs it in
his hand, looks at it with an Indifferent

ancient. They come with their mount
ing from the Countess de Preiean. The
two others, still finer, once formed part
of necklace which was stolen in Venice
in 1904 from Nine. Morosini. This neck
lace belonged later on to Lady Temple,

of Isaac Lieven. Lady Temple gave it
to her daughter, who sold it three days
after her marriage. AS for the sapphire

AS extraordinary us it may appear
there are now living five or six indi-
viduals who know all the costly dia-
monds and all the rich jewels in the
world, and they are able to recognize
them after lapse Of thirty years, even
when they had first only seen them a

IN HIS own DEFENSE.
\ sad Yet Exciting Day in the Irvine
Trial with the Defendant ON the stand

Trial with the Defendant ON the stand
LINCOLN, Neb., Oct. Ell Associated
Press The sensation OF the day in
the Irvine murder case was the placing
on the stand of the defendant himself.
Shortly before calling him the de-
iendant's little daughter, whom the
prisoner had not seen since the dis.
coyery of ME wife's perfdy, was
brought into the courtroom, and as the
child threw herself into his arms there
burst from Irvine heart-rending sob,
halt of joy and half OF grief, that
brought tears to the majority of those
who packed the courtroom, while two
OF the jurymen blew their noses vigor-
onsly. In his testimony Irvine stated
that his duties as a member OF the
Utah legislature prevented him from
accompanying his wife and daughter
when they lett Salt Lake on February
%, but when the session was closed he
hastened TO join them. His first sus-
picion was excited by finding in his
wiie's secretary scrap OF envelope
with the name, &c. +. Montgomery"
written in her hand. This, corroborated
bv the meeting in Lincoln OF friend
who told him he mad seen Montgomery
on the same train with Mrs. Irvine, 60
ing east, the actions of an Omaha rela-
tive in evidently trying to conceal some
thing OF his wite's travelling plans from
hun and the discovery by him that she
did not stop at the Chicago hotel she
said she had, brought on the terrible
denouement.
lie said he first met Montgomery in
Lincoln in 1886 and became greatly at
tached to him. lie himself introduced
Montgomery to his wife and when he
came to Salt Lake and engaged in a
business deal with witness. Mont
vomery was entertained at their house.
The witness emphatically stated that
ED Montgomery had no better friend
than was to him."
The first portion of this testimony
was given in low tone, with evident
emotion. but the telllng of the sorrow
appeared to relieve him and he braced
up wonderfully. When the point was
reached where he was about to
relate his wiie's oral confession
OF criminal intimacy in the pres
euce OF her daughter the defense
iu,erposed on the ground that the wife,
and not the husband, was competent to
testify on this point, such communicate
ion being privileged one, but the
court oyerruled the objection and an
adjournment was taken with Irvine
still on the stand.
His uncle from Milo, Ia, testified to
five cases of insanity in the Iowa branch
OF the family due to the frequent inter
marriages OF cousins a number OF wit
nesses testified 10 the defendent's evil
dent mental possibility before
leaving Chicago, shortly before the
tragedy, Immediately after and when
in Jail. Dispositions from number of
old friends in Marion, Ind, were also
read.
Mrs. Irvine is in Omaha with an
aunt, but will not be called unless the
states rebuttal renders it necessary.

experiences, which seldom falls to the 10,
Of man or woman, and when taken to.
gether, seldom equaled. Each of them
have had five jubilee periods, viz:
First, When each of them arrived at
the age of fifty years.
Second, When each OF them had re-
sided in Tallahassee fifty years.
Third, When as man and wife they
had lived together fifty years.
Fourth, When they had resided in one

Fifth, When on June 2, 1892, they
were members Of one church-the NJ. E

To the Editor of the F1oRD1AN:
There is short article in this weeks
Tallahasseean signed, "a Clerk" relative
to the broken pledge of some of the
grocery merchants Of our town, in which
they agreed to close their stores at six
o'clock. As the housekeepers generally
attend TO the buying of groceries, it is
meet that one of their number should
have word to say in behalf of the clerks,
and the early closing of these business
houses.
Because one or two grocery stores have
broken their pledges. let it not be sufficient
reason for others to do the same, and let
every housekeeper make up her mind to
ignore those firms, who hesitate not, to
break a written agreement, for only by so
doing can we expect our sons, husbands
and friends to enjoy that afternoon rest
which all need during the heat of summer
