exhibition in this city which the press
generally pronounced fraud has
been exposed in Chicago, by a certain
DIR. Palmer, who did not believe in
her supernatural powers. She had in
a ghostly fashion, by the mere laying

about to leave the stage when
DIR. Palmer jumped from bis seat on

too quick. He grasped her right hand
and she screamed hut did no. loose

she faced the doctor and glared at him.
He smiled at her. He tried to grab
her left hand, but she held it behind
her back. Soon she thrust that lett

Bells patent, issued March Z, 1876,
has always been held to cover the
broad principle of telephony. In
other words, in the ewes of the law
and the estimation of the patent office
Bell is the discoverer of the principle
that sound may be transmitted be-
tween two distant points over a mag
netised wire by the use of suitable
apparatus. In a section of the patent
specifications filed by Mr.. Bell cover
ing this principle he declared his dis
covery to be as follows: 1.-The union
upon and by means Of an
electric circuit of two or
more instruments, so that if motion of
any kind or form be produced in any
way in the armature of any one of the
said instruments, the armatures Of all
the other instruments upon the same
circuit will be moved in like manner
and form; If such motion be produced
in the former sound, like sound will
be produced by the motion of the
latter" That sums up the Bell patent
in a nutshell.
