THROUGH WATER.

THROUGH WATER.
1t has long been known that water is a
good conductor of sound, and now Captain
Neale, an English inventor, has ingenieusly
utilized this quality of water ss a means
for signalling between ships at sea Some
experiments made recently with his appar-
atus are said to have given very satisfac-
tory results. The transmitter consists of
a bell about sixteen inches in diameter at
tached to the lower end of framing which
is fixed to the side of the vessel, the bell
being submerged about six feet. At the
upper end of the framing is a crank ham
die, which works q double beat hammer,
which strikes and sounds the bell. The
Morse code is employed, and signalling is at
present carried on by hand, but electricity
will be used hereafter. The operator gives
the handle quarter turn for the
dots of the code and a whole revolution for
dashes. The receiver, on the second YES
sci, consists of q pair of metallic drums,
about ten inches in diameter, open at one
end and fixed, mouth to mouth. upon piece

them. These drums are suspended in the wa
ter and are connected with small battery
and through 1t with a tape record
ing instrument. AS at present ar,
ranged the operator has an acous-
tic apparatus connected with the drums,
by means of which he hears the sounds
from the bell as they are received by the
drums, and, by a manual arrangement, he
records each sound on the tape. When
the recent experiments were made, two
punts were moored In the Thames about
two thirds of mile apart, and signalling
was successfully carried on from the one
to the other. Messages were correctly
transmitted and recorded, although nstur
ally somewhat slowly, owing to the sppa
| ratus being worked by hand. The trial
however, demonstrated the practical char
acter of the invention and the correctness
of the principles upon which 1t is based.

"rHE LORD WIZ PROvIDE.o


The political campaign in New York is
getting lively. Among its interesting in
cidents is the circulation Of handb!lls de-
scribing in plain words Tsmmany and its
methods. One of these handbills shows
how Tammany has taken care of one fsmi-
Iy, and 1t is headed "The Lord Will Pro-
vide" 1t tells that Police Magistrate
Welde has a salary of $4,000. Bis son
is police clerk at So, 200. A brother is court
officer in the judges court and is paid
81, 200. A sister-in-law is factory inspec-
tor and has salary of 1000. Then comes
list of brothers-in-law of the judge
One is police court interpreter, another
a water meter setter, the third clerk in
the comptroller's Office. the fourth special
duty police officer, the next custodian in
the county clerks Office, the fifth an IN
spector of the department of public works,
the sixth a policeman and the seventh q
roundsmsn in the park department.
This is a remarkable list. The Welde
family has evidently no cause to think that
it isn't appreciated, and no complaint has
been heard from it. The complaint made
in the handful probably won't hurt 1t
much. Loyalty to Tammany has made 1t
solid and comfortable and will be likely to
keep 1t SO.

back from the brokers of the East that 1t

investors to send their money into Kansas,
owing to the difficulty in collecting under

DO BIRDS FLY FROM 0HOLERAq

Records Exist Of Birds Suddenly DISAPPEARING Prior
to Cholera Outbreak.
A curious circumstance in connec-
ton with therecent epidemic Of cholera
at Hamburg was the departure Of all
the birds from the city few days
prior to the outbreak. Numerous re-
ccris exist Of birds thus suddenly dis
appearing from plague threatened cen
tres, and throughout the world these
fittings are generally looked upon as
omens Of approaching sickness. Thus,
in the summer Of 1884, when the cho-
lera was raging at Marseilles and Tou-
lou, all the birds, as il actuated by a
common impulse, abandoned these
two cities and suddenly resorted to
Hyeros. The latter place enjoyed q
complete immunity from Cholera, and
the extraordinary Influx Of birds there
attracted much attention at the time.
The extent to which birds realize and
guard against the disease have long
engaged the attention of naturalIsts,
whose speculations ON the subject are
likely to be revived BY the recent mi
grafton Of the birds from Hamburg.
