The manager of the telephone ex-
change in Lisbon achieved distinction
some time since by connecting the royal
palace with the opera house at time
when the king was in mourning. The
telephone man also connected his own
house with the transmitters ON the stage
of the opera, and had wires with receiv-
ers attached all around his drawing
room. On opera nights he used to in
vite his friends 10 enjoy the performance
at his house, and it was curious sight
when some ten or twelve people were
sitting about the room in comfortable
armchairs with receivers to their ears

was no necessity of holding up ones
hands all the time-and listening atten-
lively without uttering a sound beyond
an occasional exclamation OF delight or

A remarkable application has been
made by DIR. j. Mount Bleyer.' In a case
of membranous Group infubation was
successfully resorted to. When the re-
moval of the tube became necessary it
had disappeared. Tracheotomy would
evidently have to be performed, but the
difficulty was to locate the tnbe. A del
icate metallic probe attached to an cleo
trio wire, the other end of which ternli-
mated in a telephone receiver. was passed
down through the Iarynx. AS soon as it
came in contact with the tube distinct
click was communicated to the ear
through the receiver. The exact loca-
ton having thus been determined, trache-
otomy was performed and the tube ex-
tracted--New York Telegram.

A correspondent who has been unfa-

They Pulled the String.

A few days before the demise of
Mrs. Thresa Fair, she decided that
as she had no further use for money
she would give S25O,0O0 to the Cath
Ole Church to build a college where
young priests could be educated.
The executors of the estate however
refuse to give up cent.
They claim that Mrs. Fair was not
in condition of mind at the time to
know what she was about, although
they do not seem to think theother
requests made at the same time can
be affected by Mrs. Fairs mental
condition. They are all right, so it
appears.
They even 60 so far as to insinuate
that she never signed any such be
quest at all, as no one about the
house, or the watchers at her bed
side saw her sign any such document
on the day the bequest was dated.
The fact of it is that Mrs. Fair
threw her sop to the church a little
too late.
She was worth millions of dollars
for several years and if she had been
particularly desIrous of ESTABLISHING
the institution named in the bequest,
she could very easily have gone
about it, while she was alive and III
good health. The fact Of it all is,
that very rich people don't seem to
care much about parting with world
ly wealth until they can no longer
enjoy it themselves. About that time
they begin thinking of church be-
quests.

AND WHY NOT?
MAY Is

The third-party advocates WHIT
wish to claim ''silver" as the party
name are unconsciously exposing
their motives when they make the
threat that nobody can get an Office
unless he joins. Those who are
honestly intent upon doing some
thing for silver mining do not want
an office as reward for their opin-
ions. Enterprise.
The Enterprise of late has brought
several indictments against the Sill
yer party, and among other things
has charged the party with desi-e
to put people in Office.
This is very serious charge to
make against political party and
should be seriously investigated. If
true and the Enterprise can prove it,
it ought to settle the silver move
ment forever.
The idea of a political party as
piring to elect anybody to office is
something perfectly awful. of
course the Republican and Demo-
cratic parties have never been
guilty of doing such thing in the
State, or probably if they ever did
the Enterprise has forgotten all about
it.
If our memory serves us right
however, we recall the time when
the Democracy of this State, were
so anxious to elect Democratic leg
islative ticket that it bought votes in
Reno for $40 apiece, paid So in
Eureka and $50 in Churchill.
These figures would certainly seem
to indicate quite an anxiety to elect
somebody to office. Again, in some
Republican hours Of anxiety we have
seen votes command S15 apiece right
here in Carson City, and in Virginia
$50 and in Reno $40. What do
you think of this, brother Campbelll
Now il our memory continues to
serve us, we never yet heard of a
party in Nevada giving office to any
body who did not first join the party
and also train with it spell.
1t may be that the silver party in
this State.may conclude to give its
loaves and fishes to let of people
who have been fighting the party,
but it will surprise us very much if
such thing occurs.
Now when it comes down to cases
Mr.. Enterprise, do you really think
any point is gained by charging
party new or old with being actu-
ated by desire to put its own
friends in Office instead Of its enemies.
If you think all the political saints,
milk sops, dudes and sissies in the
State are getting into the silver party
you are mistaken. We propose to
stand in for our own kind of people.

Washington Letter.

One of the problems which has
been perplexing members of Con-
| gress lately is the question whether
they have power to revoke patent
or regulate the charges of a corpora
tion operating monopoly under
patents issued by the government.
This question has been brought up
| by petitions to Congress to take
some action concerning the Bell
Telephone Company, which is the
most arbitrary and greedy corpora
ton thas has ever come into ex-
istencein this country. Few peo.
pie who lives outsides of telephone
circuits can appreciate what a great
convenience, what a necessity in
fact, the telephone has come to be
in our great cities. But the Bell
Company by reason of the patents it
owns enjoys monopoly Of the ser.
vice and is squeezing the public to
the utmost limit. It has furnished
such accommodations as are cheapest,
and has treated the public as if it
owned its subscribers as we'll as its
Instruments. The service is nearly
as defective to-day as it was at the
beginning OF the use of the tele.
phone, through great improvements
have been invented which the com.
pany steadily refuses to give its
patrons the benefit of. Patents
which it owns are held unused be.
cause to use them would cost some
thing, yet the charges for the service
have been constantly increased willie
immense fortunes are piling cp for
the stock holders. The New York
Legislature recently made a move
to regulate the concern, and probab
" it might be reached in this way if
state legislatures were so disposed,
but it is the opinion of the best
lawyers in Congress that they are.
powerless either to revoke the
patents or regulate charges. 1t is
too bad that such is the case.
It is evident that campaign litera.
ture will be both plentiful and cheap
this year. That was rather cute
scheme which number Of Demo.

The practice Of allowing members,
by simply making a motion, to print
speeches which they do not actually
deliver facilitates this sort Of thing
and is one Of the abuses which ought
to be abolished. It has been shown
very often how improper it is that
the Record should be anything more
than a record of the actual proceed

not abolish the practice of loading
