May See without Being Seen.

The transparent mirror, which has
recently been invented by a German
chemists, will doubtless find many pa
irons among women. 1t is made by
coating glass with a chemical prepare
ton of silver nitrate and other materi-
ais, mixed up in n tanner that has
been patented by the inventor. Tha
part of it isn't Interesting. What does
appeal to the feminine fancy and to
that of the magician is the number of
uses to which it can be put. The new
mirrors are now being made by a large
firm in France, in various sizes and
shapes-big mirrors, to set in frames
on the floor. panel-shaped glasses for
doors to dark closets, and tiny hand
glasses for the dresser, beside those of
intricate aid complicated design, for
use by such artists as h great Her
mann, who sees in the new invention a
world of mystery-lraught ledgerde-
main.
One of these "n.agic mirrors" placed
in the panel of the door opening into a
brilliartly-lighted reception room,
would furnisl! endless amusement to a
hostess who is inclined to be curious
about the impression her home makes
upon her visitors.
TO quietly observe the actions Of a
devoted admirer. rs he impatiently
awaits the approach. Of his sweetheart,
pacing about the loom and perhaps
consulting the very mirror behind
which tho object of his affections Is
concealed as he arranges his necktie
for the seventh tine, would be run Tor
the sweetheart, anyway.
If the mirror grows common, as they
are likely to do, they will furnish par
lor entertainments of many descrip-
tions. For instance, suppose a cabinet
to be fitted up with what appears to be
an ordinary looking glass in it's door.
Conceal somebody within the cabinet
and ask a lady to look at herself in the
mirror, a request which, being a wo-
plan. she cannot refuse, then have the
person within suddenly strike a match
or turn on an electric light that has
been previously arranged, ard watch
the effect upon your victim.
Such a mirror would be a great addi-
ton to a Halloween party, to be used
when the anxious maiden, wishing to
know her fate, gaZes into the glass to
see who looks over her shoulder, aud
beholds her sweetheart smiling upon
her from behind the glass.
Ingenious minds, however, will sure
ly devise many changes which can be
rung upon talis new magic mirror, and
it is not necessary to specify further.

A Typewriting and Adding Mac

A Ty~pewriting and Adding Machine
A machine has been invented for
typewriting and adding figures at the
same time. The invention is deScrib-
ed as being intended to quickly and
accurately add a column or columns
of figures and at the same time, and
by the same manipulation of the keys
to print these figures upon a sheet of
paper or a blank book in the order
in which they are added, so al to form
a proof sheet, which will verify the
correctness of the addition. The ma
chine, by special adjustment, may be
made to print at the end of the
column the sum total of the figures,
and to do this in a vertically descend
ing or vertically ascending or hori-
Zontal progression. Additions can be
made either to the right or to the left.
The printing is in full sight. The
machine works with the ease of a
typewriter, and it's speed is only linn
tied by the skill of the operator. 1t
subtracts by a reversing arrangement,
the registering disk running one way
as readily as the other. Its conStruc.
ton is simple, considering the variety
and extent of work done. 1t is adapt
ed to printing on pass books, which it
does as readily as upon ordinary plat
en- and sheet. 1t can be used to add
without printing or to print without
adding. If mistakes are made, they
can be seen at once.

leader of the middle-of-the-road faction,
issued today an appeal to Populists of
the United States and a defense of Mr..
Watson. In part he says:
The nomination of Mr.. Bryan by the
Fopulist convention was secured by abso-
lutte fraud and treachery. Senator Butler
went TO ST. Louis as an anti-fusion1st and
was bought outright with the position of
temporary chairman. The national COM
mittee has trampled Mr.. Watsons rights
under its feet, and made his candidacy
the trading stock for every fusion deal
in this campaign. While l am writing
this appeal, Chairman Butler is sup
pressing the letter of acceptance sent
him by Mr. Watson. The recent mani
festo of this committee was intended to
break the force of Mr.. Watson's letter
of acceptance and place in a false posi-
ton every anti-fusion Populist in the
party 1t was a deiiberately-plan in
suit. Every act of this committee since
the convention has been a studedp at
tempt TO drive Mr.. Watson from the
ticket. While Mr.. Watson has stood
Loyalty by Mr. Bryan, that gentleman
has treated him with supreme contempt.

not have received the nomination of an

c.4ble to the Herald from Madrid says:
In an interview with Premier CanoNas
he characterized as absolutely false and
ridiculous the statement TO the effect
that the Spanish government intended
abandoning Cuba in event of the war
not being concluded in March.
lie never entertained such an idea
for one moment. The government, he
said, was guided entirely by the opin-
ions ard wishes of the Spanish peo-
pie and, far from desiring TO termin-
ate the war the feeling of the sup
preston of the insurreetion grows
stronger daily. So long as this feel
ing continues the Spanish government

Regarding the report that President
Cleveland intended taking action in
favor of the insurgents, Senior Canovas
says the government has received as
suTances from Washington to quite
the contrary effect
Naturally the United States govern
ment desires, for many rea-
sons, to see an early ter
mination of the war but fur
ther than that nothing can exceed the
loyal conduct of President Cleveland
and his cabinet towards Spain and her
government. Our relations at the
present moment are Of the most cor

Mr.. George Coppell, made an address
to stockholders. He said in part:
The annual report of the operations
or the company for the year ending
June so last is so full of information
as TO leave no room for further re-
marks on the past. Although the bust
ness of the country has suffered in the
past few months, to an almost unpre-
cedented degree of dullness, and our
earnings show some falling off from
those Of the corresponding time last
year yet Colorado is less depressed
than most of the western states and
has quicker recuperative power owing
to its varied industries than the most
exclusively agricultural states Tn
fortunately the Leadville strike con-
tinues after some four months duration
and we are heavy losers in earnings in
consequence of it. The presidential
election has always been a disturber of
