THE PHONoPHORE.
The Sending OF Simultaneous 1fessag,
on One Wire.

The Sending OF Simultaneous Messages
on One Wire.
To be teld that telegraph wire
which is busily transmitting a long
message can at the same time be made
to convey half dozen other messages
in opposite directions sounds like a
fairy tale, but that the thing has been
done aud is daily being done is attested
upon the most respectable authority.
The discovery which renders these as
tonishing results possible is due to c.
Langdon- Davies. who has for some
years been engaged in rendering it
practically workable and in adapting
it alike to telephone and telgraphic
use.
1t is difficult TO convey TO the lay
mind an accurate comprehension of
process so exceedingly technical; but it
may briefly be said that Langdou- Da-
vies in the ''phonophore" utilities not
the electric current but the
noise,caused by induction. The signals
are transmitted by a series of induced
electric impulse, and the success of the
system is found in the ability of the in
ductiye force TO pass through insula
tions which electric current IS can not
penetrate. A wire may be blown down
and in contact with the earth, yet so
long as it is not broken it will carry
phonophoric message.
BY means OF tho phonophore mes
sages can be transmitted with extraor-
binary rapidity. and there is practical
ly no limit to the number of messages
that can be sent simultaneously upon
the same wire. And. as we limited, Mr..
Langdon- Davies system is as useful
telephoncally as 1t is telegrap hically.
A wire which is conveying electric sig
nails can at the same time be used for
telephone conversation without either
the message or the conversation suffer
ing in the least.
For some considerable time past ex-
periments in both directions have been
proceeding with most gratifying re-
suits, which are vouched for by such
high authorities as Prof Sylvanus
Thompson, Conrad Cooke and Latimer
Clark. Three of the principal railway
companies have already adopted the
phonophore, and it must be obviors.
even to the unscientifc mind, that
phonophoric telegraphy and telephony,
which SO vastly increased the cleo
trician's power over the wires, has be-
fore it very great future.
The phonophore, indeed, increases
almost to infinity the number of words
that car ne transmitted in given time.
1t is obvious. therefore, that it opens
great possibilities in the way of cheap
ening the COS of kilograms. So long
as the number of words that could be
carried by d wire in an hour was rigid
ly limited it was hopeless to look for
any substantial reduction IA The cost
of telegraphing, but the ph )nophore at
once increases the capacity and speed
of every wire to which it may be fitted.

Rouge rsed Long Ago.

Personal adornment by means of
cosmetics has been practieed from most
ancient times. Classical writer's in

Rome derived the custom of using cos

women of all times have freely in

aud it is probable that also from the
Egyptians the Jewish women learned

In England the use of rouge as a cos

dies disfigured themselves by patches
of court plaster stuck on different parts
of the faee-that is. about the middle

eliminated during the reigns of the
two Charleses. While the wearing OF
patches has almost completely disap-
peared-although it is impossible TO
say it might not be revived-the use Of
rouge, in perhaps more moderate
fashion. has con- .uued down to the
present day. In Tie case of vegetable

An Americans Adventure In the Royal
Albert Chapel
In front of the chancel of the Albert
chapel is the cenotaph to the late
prince consort. 1t is an altar tomb by
the late Baron Henry de Triqueti. Its
base is of black and gold Tuscan mar
BILE At each angle of the tomb is the
figure of an angel, those at the front
bearing shields, one with the arms OF
the queen and the other with those of
the prince consort.
Around the tomb in inches are statu-
cites, three on the south side represent
ing Charity, Piety. and Hope, and
three on the north Justice. Honor, and
Truth. At the east end is mournfully
interesting statuette of Science weep
ing. An inscription runs around the
grand antique marble of its cap. Upon
the latter lies the recumbent figure Of
ALBERT the Good, magnifcently seulp-
tured, wearing the armor of knight
of the middle ages and clothed in the
mantle of the Order of the Garter.
On recent occasion, while standing
before this memorial-my attendant
having excused himself for a moment
and disappeared through che private
door leading to the deanery-two la
dies, one an elderly woman, and her
companion a fair-flced woman OF
thirty, quietly entered and walked
straight to the cenotaph. They were
both dressed plainly but richly and
were without bonnets, and at the time

COuRT-MARTIALS.
The Terror They Inspire Insure Fast
j. Locked Mouths

The Terror They Inspire Insure Fast
a Locked Mouths
Apropos of recent court-martials
which have created a great deal of COM
ment in army and navy circles, an officer
attached to the latter branch of the
service spoke somewhat as follows:
"You can not conceive of the terror in
which officers stand toward the court
martial. u is so easy to &C mmit a tech
nical error and bring down upon your
self the ever-ready wrath of this grim
institution. Thus. in word and action,
the majority of officers preserve an alb
normal discretion, which TO outsiders
appears absurd and uncalled for.
AS an instance of the extent to which
this conservativeness Is carried, allow
me to cite the following story of naval
officer and a newspaper man.
trife more than a year ago, the Of
fcer not then at sea, in speaking to the
newspaper friend of the cruiser Iro-
quois, remarked upon the worn and
damaged condition of the vessels boil
erS They were really in dangerous
state said he; yet no repairs had been
ordered Naturally the newspaper
man announced his intention of pub
fishing the story. The officer hesitated.
The latter was too good journalist to
readily give up a frst-class subject
Promising that his informants name
should not be known in connection
with the article, he proceeded to get it
into type and exhibit the proof sheet to
the officer. That gentleman. during the
interim. had been very much exercised in
his mind over what would happen
should the origin of the article be
traced to him. True, every word of it
was authentic, but absolute truth
would not remove the danger of
court-martial; so after reading the
proof, he requested the journalist to
destroy the article, which was done.
Some critics will say that, in prevent
ing the journalist from publishing the
story, the naval officer was guilty of an
action almost criminal, inasmuch as the
unsafe boilers exposed the lives of the
men employed aboard the Iroquois; but
self-preservation is strong, and in the
service it is best to hold the tongue un-
til the government requests its release.

INFALLIslLITY OF THE POPE.
Tho Meaning and Limitations of That
Dogma Explained ny "a Catholic Writer.

Tho Meaning and Limitations of That
Dogma Explained by Catholic Writer.
Papal infallibility is defined by Cath
Ollie theologiaDs to be supernatural
assistance of the holy ghost, whereby
the pope, as the head of the whole
church, is preserved free from error.
whenever he defines doctrine that be-
longs to the faith or morals. Hence the
reader viii easily understand that, in
Catholic theology an infallible pope
does not mean one gifted with inspira-
ton or commissioned to reveal to the
Catholic world new dogmas. The gift
Of inspiration is chiefly positive, while
the gift of infallibility is negative; in
fallibility is only an assistance securing
the pope from the possibility of de
claring error to be truth and truth err
ror.
Moreover. all Catholic theologians
agree in denying the existence of any
new Catholic revelation after the time
of the apostles. The special assistance
of the holy ghost is given to the pope
for the only purpose of preserving, ex-
planning, and defending the revelation
already made TO and through the
apostles Nor does an infallible pope
mean one who is confirmed in the hap
py state of sanctlfying grace. and who,
therefore. is sinless or can not sin.
Impeccability and infallibility are
two gifts entirely distinct. Impecca-
bility is gift of the win. infallibility
is gift of the understanding; impec-
cability implies a permanent gift that
makes the receiver agreeable to God,
and is given chiefly for the good of the
person that receives it; while infalli-
bility is transitory gift, gratuitously
given for the good of the universal
church. and only then when the pope.
as its supreme doctor. is teaching the
church.
Hence an infallible pope can not be
said to be one who can never err in his
private conversation or teachings or who
can not make any miStalSe in politics.
government, etc. for the gift of in
fallibility, as held by the Catholics, be-
longs to the pope only in his official
capacity as supreme teacher of the
church, and only when. in virtue Of his
apostolic power, he defines a doctrine
that belongs to faith or morals. This
and no other is the subject matter of
the pope's infallible teaching. Rev. S.
]. Brandt, in North American Review.
