THE ARMENIA ATROCITIES.

When so wise and conservative body
as the Bishops OF the Episcopal church
move vigorously in matter, it chal-
lenges at least respectful and thoughtful
consideration. Sixty-two bishops OF the
Protestant Episcopal church in this
country, who week ago petltioned
President Cleveland to take some force
ful action that would lead to cessation
of the massacre of Christians in Arme
MIA, have sent petitions to the Arch
bishop of Canterbury. head of the Angli
can church, and through the various
ministers of foreign affairs to the czar,
the president of France and the emper-
ors OF Germany and Austria. In their
letter to the archbishop of Canterbury
the bishops declare that crusade sup
ported by Christians the world over
would be truly warranted, and plead
that the great church of England,
through its episcopate, should take de
cisive action.
To the great powers they pray that in
the name of Christ they come to the aid
of the prosecuted brethren who are suf-
tcring from persecution worse than tine
Roman emperors ever perpetratcd, worse
than the martyrs of the early church
endured.

humanity. For Christ's sake, save our

A USEFUL INVENTION.
Telephone Circuit Along the Wires In Case
Of Trolley Accidents.

Telephone Circuit Along the Wires In Case
Of Trolley Accidents.
A telephone circuit is to be construct
cd along all the lines of the trolley car
system in Hartford and its suburbs, SO
that the conductors may communicate
with the power houses and the car dis
patcher in case of accident or delay. A
telephone wire will be strung ON the
trolley poles, and at every eighth pole
there will be switch for making con-
nections. Each car will carry trans
mitter. 1t is expected that the device
will prove of great utility and conven-
ience and will do much to prevent acci-
dents and delays ON the single track
lines that run long distances into the
suburbs.
The device is the invention of w. G.
Fielding Of Hartford. 1t ought at least
to prove Of great service in relieving the
minds of the passengers and the strain
ON the conductor when the power is sud-
denly shut of and the car halted and
every one wants to know just what the
trouble is.
There is no more exasperating situa
ton Of utter helplessness than to be
halted in a trolley car q mile or two out
side the city line and not be able to gain
the slightest idea Of why the power has
been shut of or when it is likely to be
turned ON again. Not a few suburban
ties have been brought near to insanity
