Returning to Chicago, Miss Adams and
Miss Ellen Starr Il teacher, secured the

in one of the worst quarters of Chicago.
The woman who owned the house gave
the rent for number of years, and at first
the expense Of running the house and min

was paid by the two women. Finally,
however, many philanthropic women be
came interested in the project, and Hull

A Fault In Piano Playing.

A we'll known teacher tells in The
Etude that one Of the most common
faults in piano playing is the practice of
playing the two hands out of time with
each other Nine players out of ten per
nit the left hand to lead the right, when
the two should strike the keys simulta-
neously. 1t is sort of swagger that pro
duces very inartistic effect. OF course
there are rare cases where this dilatori
ness of the right hand may be legitimate,
but it should be remembered that i'll
general it is reprehensible and should
be carefully avoided. If the composer
indicates the simultaneous performance
of the notes belonging to the two hands,
let not the slightest discrepancy be man
ifest. To play the two hands out of
time with each other is to be not only
inaccurate, but to appear affected. Shall
low players resort to such devices to
cover up the lack of ability to play with
expression. 1t takes the place of shading
and phrasing with the superficial

PRINTING BY TELEGRAPH.
An Electrical Typewriter That Transmit
Printed Characters.

An Electrical Typewriter That Transmits
Printed Characters.
The printing telegraph, though de-
vice of comparatively recent develop
| ment, has been the subject OF ceaseless
investigation, and practical workers Ia
electricity have directed their whole at
tention in some instances 10 the trans
mission of messages and the recording
of them III plain Roman characters.
Its advantages are simply those OF an
electrical typewriter, by means of which
the message is printed in the presence
of the transmitting operator i'll page
form, and duplicate Of the same print
ed at all the receiving stations on the
line, whether it be long or short CIR
cult. A single transmission prints 1T
simultaneously i'll page form ready for
the compositor's case in all the news
paper offices of many cities
1t is said to differ materially from all
other known means of telegraphy in one
essential particular, In it the impulses
move the instruments, whereas III other
systems the instruments move the i'm
pulse-that is to say, the transmitter Of
the message is caused to run by a sepa-
rate power. No combination OF elec-
trical> impulse or currents is employed.
An even succession of dots or impulses,
which operate the polarized relay arma-
ture at the receiving station, places the
revolving type wheel in the required
position, when thqM local mechanism
causes the letter to be printed.
The apparent impossibility of trans
mitting printed characters 800 or 1000
miles over single WIRE at once presents
itself to the mind, and it is overcome in
this system, it is asserted, III a very
simple way Each letter of the alphabet
is represented by a certain number Of
impulses, which reyolve the type wheel
to the required position, when the let
ters are struck by the local mallet.
Fourteen impulses represent the en-
tire alphabet, making a complete revolu-
tion of the type wheel, which may be
turned 200 revolutions per minute, thus
securing very rapid printing. It's advan'
tage also is that Of absolute secrecy as
means of communication. The advan-
tage Of the printing telegraph for the
transmission of news to the newspaper
offices is unqaestionably subject com.
manding attention on the part of pro-
gressive proprietors. Paper and Press.
