Novel Feature I'm Telephone Work.
While the fact that the roar of. Nj:
agara Falls has recently been heart
in New York over the telephone is.
generally known, but little has been
said of the novel manner In which the
transmitter was brought within range
Of the noise of the falling water.
After investigation, 1t was decided
that the Cave of the Winds, would be
the best place at which to gather the.
sound, as there the falls can be mp:
preached more closely than at almost
any other place. On rocky ledge in
the cave, under the center full, was
placed wooden box, in which was.
secured a telephone. with q @colid-
back" transmitter. 70 this was at
tached a sheet-iron funnel, 90 inches
long and about II inches in diameter
ut the outer end. Three batteries were
placed in the box, but only two were
used. The box was wrapped IN can
vas to protect the apparatus FROM the
constantly falling spray. When the
sound was first listened to at the New
York end, the impression it conveyed
was that of the kissing Of q gigantic
sheet of spray, and hardly a sugges-
ton of the thunder" Of the falls was
audible. This was subsequently rem
edied by moving the box IN the cave.
At the point where it was first placed
two distinct sounds are produced by
the falling tons of water. One, q
sharp kissing sound, like escaping
steam, is made by the water as It
curls over the rocks below and goes
sweeping out into the river. The
other is the deep pounding roar made
by the striking Of the mighty column
on the rocks or water below. By
moving the telephone 12 or Is feet
further back, the roar was caught and
the kissing proportionately reduced.
The result was that an average note
was heard at the other end of the
462-mile line, although it was as curl
GUS as interesting to observe how
from time to time 1t would be domin-
ated alternately by the deeper diapa-
son of the impact Of the falls, or the
sibilant hurtling Of the spray.

hatred that she displays towards lne!''
4 .'No, Stanley" said the baronet,
"she does not hate you, but che loves
another" S2' 8E.; iys
The baronet had well observed his
niece; her eulOgiums, her warm De.
fence Of Sydney, her dropping spirits,
had told him the true state Of her
heart, and had brought an additional
pang to his own-that the union he
hadl plaAped, and to which he now
knew there would have been such
joyful acquiescence, the guilt OF his
new-found son had rendered for ever
impossible. 5.g
his uncle had learned that which
ly expressed his wonder that, In his
vived esteem.
"She does not believe that she
possesses the right to despise him
she defends him." said the baronet.
"And who eau say that her con-
viction may not one day be your
own?" cried Stanley.
There was anger In the look which,
Mt that supp0sition, the baronet threw
towards his nephew.
But, undaunted by It, Stanley pur-
sued: "Your most secret desire, uncle,
Is, l know, that your determination
should be in harmony with my cous-
ms wishes"
Sir Lobhlen was silent.
"Uncle," continued Stanley, II pur-
sued courageously the task which, be-
gun by James Frampton, was inter-
ruptcd by his death; upon the very
vaguest indications traced out him
whom you were seeking, and knew
the claims he had to your affection"
That avowal, Us will not be doubted,
caused great establishment to the
BarOnet.
Appearing not to have observed his
uncle's surprise, Stanley went on:-
care, then, my fears unreasonable?
You have q horror Of the fault, but
pity may plead to you in favor Of
him who has committed 1t. Frances
defends him, and the culprit il your
son."
The fears which Stanley had ex-
pressed were. IL, indeed, sincere, en-
tirely without foundation; for precise
" because he was his son, the whole
world would vainly defend Sydney
with the Baronet.
The honor of any other would have.
been as nothing to him, while TINT
of his own son was everything.
And Sir Loghlen had been indeed
inflexible in his rigour. f.
That appointment which Sydney
had last solicited-that situation
which the unhappy young man had
needed perhaps for his very existence
had been refused to him only be-
cause Sir Loghlen, who happened to
be one of the directors Of the COM
pany, had said to his colleagues, "Do
not appoint Sydney Drummond."

1t was, however, significant fact
that Edward Lauterbach and Lemuel

WILL LUNCH WITH Hill.
bryan Gone 10 visit Democratic Lead
ers To-day.

UPPER RED Hook, N. Y, Aug. 3D.
Today Mr.. Bryan went to Winnisock
lodge, in the Catskills, to pass the night
with State Chairman Hinckley and other
party managers Of the state organiza.
tion and to discuss with them the plans
for the campaign. He will meet other
prominent Democrats in the cities mp
the state which he is TO visit, and be.
fore he leaves New York will know
what measure of support he is to re.
ceive from the leaders In this state.
The fact that William J. Bryan Dem
ooratio candidate for the presidency,
will lunch with Senator Hill the leader
of the party organization In this state,
when IL became known to the little
party of politicians inhabiting the Red
Hook hotel, inspired more anticipatory
discussion among them than any other
incident of the candidates. eastern trip.
Every one assumes that Senator Hill
has resolved to support the nominee OF
che party else, they argue, he would
hardly invite him to sit at his table,
and the lunch is taken as practical
announcement of Hills determination
which is expected to be followed by d
more formal declaration of the senator's
attitude. Mr.. Bryan will arrive at AL.
bany tomorrow afternoon and will have
two hours for refreshment before the
speech which he is billed to make He
will spend two hours, according to the
program which has been arranged for
him, at Wolfert's Roost, the handsome
residence which Senator Hill bought of
Fritz Emmett, the actor.
This visit having been arranged that
the Democratic candidate and the sena-
tor may come to an understanding ii
they have not already done so, will
mark distinct epoch in the campaign.
The fact of the invitation from Sena-
tor Hill, which message comes 1t is un-
derstood, through Chairman Hinckley
of the state committee, is taken by the
politicians here as an answer to the
question, which has stirred the state
since the day of the Chicago conven.
ton, whether Senator Hill will support
the ticket.
Mr.. Bryan went to church Sunday at
the Dutch Reformed church.
After the services the ministers and
members of the congregation pressed
about Mr.. Bryan to shake his hand. A
large party of wheelmen rode II miles
from Hudson in the afternoon to see
the candidate, and were introduced by
one of their members. former District
Attorney Mccormick of Columbia
county.
Mr.. Bryan's attention was called to a
statement by the president of the Chau.
tauqua assembly contradicting the re.
port that he would make speech there,
and he said:
II shall not speak there. Being in.
terested in Chautauqua work my wife
and l will avail ourselves of the oppor.
tunity to see the parent association.
The work of the association is non-par.
tisan and the president is quite right in
saying that neither candidate should
speak there unless both are invited"

There is another story af1oat. IL is
that Mr.. Platt will allow the agitation
in his behalf to proceed until tonight in
order to demonstrate his popularity
among the delegates and that then he
would call upon his lieutenants to with
draw his name. There are many who
believe that this is SO and that Mr..
Platt's name will not go before the con-

refusal AS If to emphasize this latter
