Wizard Edison has at last succeeded
IN Harvesting together his photograph
and kaleidoscope. With this combination
action can be shown and the accompany
ing phonetic expressions can be produced
at the same time. The photograph, or
talking machine, is quite well known TO
the general public, it having been on ex-
hibition for several years. The kintoscope,
the apparatus that shows objects in mo-
tion. is a more recent invention, but has
won wide notoriety through ats reproduc-
ton of prize fights, dancing scenes, etc.
With the combination of the two instru-
Ynents the cheers and time-calls that &C
company the prize fight, and the singing,
fddling and applause that accompany the
dancing, can be reproduced at the correct
instant. tt will be possible, 1t is saia
10 reproduce an entire opera. with all the
action and music, by the use of the new
combination instrument. The apparatus
may eventually work considerable change
in the amusement world. 1t will never,
of course, displace the theater, but when

The Armenian OutrageS.

There is no longer any doubt that the
stories of the outrages committed by the
Turks and Kurds upon the Armenians are
true. The statement was made in our
dispatches. yesterday that the Turkish
government was doing its utmost to pre-
vent the investigating commission from
finding out the truth. 1t is afraid that
If the story Of the outrages is told in de-
tail the indignation of the entire Christian
world will be so great that it will have
to give a guarantee that no such out
RACES will ever again be permitted. and
that the Arrnenians shall have greater
CHrotectlep against Turkish oppression
than they now have.
Still. if the statements published in the
London Telegraph are reliable, the Ar
mentans were the aggressors. They re-
VOTED against Turkish authority and at
tempted q revolution. During the dis
turbance Armenian brigands committed
Sutrages upon the Kurds for which
there was no excuse The outrages that
were afterward committed on the Ar
menians We're in a great measure, in
retaliation for what the Armenian bri-
gands did.
1t ds to be hoped that the whole of the
horrible story win be told. 1t may have
the effect Of arousing the Christian world
to the necessity for guarding the Christ
ians of the Turkish empire against the
horrors to which they are constantly ex-
posed. They are hated by the Turks with
a bitter, fanaucal hate, and there is no
time at which they are free from mani
festations Of this hate. The Turks will
never deal justly with the Armenians and
they should not have it in their power
to prosecute them. There ought to be
some other way to preserve the balance
of power in Europe than the one that
includes exposing Christians to persecu>
ton by adherents of another religion.
The Japanese are making war upon the
Chinese with guns and swords. but also
in another manner that is hardly less
hurtful Special agents of the mikado's
government are in Russia for the purpose
of introducing japanese tea. Russia is
China's best tea consumer. The Russian
drinks tea as the German does his beer
and light wines and the Turk drinks coffee.

There are certain adjectives which in a.
sense have become identified with certain
nationalities, through common associa-
ton. Thus, volatile" belongs to the
French, clustering" and "stolid" to the
English and "phlegmatic" to the German.
For the time being and in a special way,
however, there is nothing phlegmatic
about the German people. They are lit
orally tumbhng over each other in their
eagerness to do honor to Prince Bis
marck on his forthcoming birthday. If
the man. of blood and iron is able to
create such enthusiasm among the phleg-
matte Germans, what would be the enthus-
iasm Of the volatile French if he and his
achievements belonged to France?

The Cuban patriots are fighting for
the political freedom of their island. They
object to foreign domination, and desire
a government Of their own. Some of their
sympathizers in this country talk about
the United States giving aid to the Cubans
in their effort to drive out the Spaniards.
and then annexing Cuba to this country.
Such persons should reflect that the United
States. except in the matter of miles in
tervening, are more of foreign country
to Cuba than is Spain. The languages,
customs and tastes of the two countries
are different. The swapping of the for
eign domination" of Spain for the foreign
domination of the United States would
probably not be a satisfactory exchange
to the Cubans, or the Americans

The Pittsburg Dispatch publishes the
cheerful information that several coke
operators in the Connellsville region have
posted notices at their works announcing
that beginning on the first day Of next
month an advance in wages averaging Is
per cent. will go into effect. Such news
has been all too scarce during the past
several years Meantime, by the way,
there is in Pennsylvania a man named
sibley. the presidential candidate of

the Connellsville operatives and other
wage earners, that cheaper money-money
with less purchasing power than the
money they are getting-is what they
need.

It is given out that the Emperor Will
liam has a great surprise in store for
celebration of the eightieth anniversary
OF the ex-chanceilor's birthday. and the
newspapers of two continents are guess
ing what it is. So far. however. nobody
seems to have recorded a guess that strikes
public opinion as the greatest possibility.
Can it be that the kaiser means to re-

congratulations on the anniversary?

A Shortage at Kingstree.

K1NGsrREE, March Is 1t is reported
upon our streets this eveulug that there
is a shortage of $500 in the accounts
of Dispenser Mcdonald at this place.
Mr.. Yeldell refused to give out any in
formation for publication aud no au-
thentic information of an official ma
ture can be obtained. Dir. Yeldell
the inspector, finished checking the
books to-day. 1t has been known for
some time that MIR. Mcdonald had lost
1856 Sc by the failure of a local bank
at this place, but any further shortage
is scarcely credited, as Mr.. Mcdonald
enjoys the confidence of our people,
and no. one who knows him would
doubt his honesty or integrity.

notice what movement the crowd of
white men would make Once on
the wharf in safety they would stand
in a group behind an officer or a bale
of Gotten or some other protection,
and it seemed they were afraid to
expose themselves. Coats were not
removed and a bandana handkerchief
containing food was not laid aside.
Apparently they, knew not what to
do, and it looked as if they would
not attempt work until the soldiers
should come.
At a quarter past I, the Fifth Bat
talon under command Of Major L F.
Bo%uchereau, appeared at Jackson
Street and the !evee and turning
down, marched to Morris bath house,
Celeste Street and the levee, and was
met there by the Fourth Battalion
under command of Major Elmer E..
Woods. The two entered the bath
house, which is being utilized as an
armory, and later pickets were placed
around it. This ceremony occasioned
considerable laughter among the
crowd of men and boys who had
gathered, as the pickets were re-
lieved of novels from the inside
pocket and newspapers from the hip
pockets, which they brought with
them to pass the long and tedious
hours. The appearance Of the militia
enlivened the river front to some ex-
tent but not as much work was
begun as was expected and this was
said to be on account of the late arri-
val of the soldiers. In the course of
an hour or two, sufficient men had ar
rived and been put to work loading yes
sells. Everything proceeded quietly
until $3.50 o'clock when the negroes
knocked off and went home and the
militia returned to their armories.-
