Novel Combination of B Typewriter and T
 Telephone.

Novel Combination of B Typewriter and B
 Telephone.
 Scientists in Europe are talking a good deal just now about q curious new machine. to which the name teleseriptar has been given. As the name indicates tho object of tho machine is 10 write down words spoken or sent from 8 dis tance. The telephone, as af present. o0n- strueted, enables one person to hear an other who is talking perhaps leagues away The telesegipt0r, it IS claimed will enable any person te send s written message te another person over tele- phone
 The toleseriptor has been invented by a German seieHtis5. His machine is sim ply a combination of the typewriter and the telegraph, and without it the nveut- or claims that the telephone cannot bo regarded as complete. Tho manipula= tion of the machine is not more difficult than that of the typewriter. and, like the typewriter, the now instrument h&s a keyboard, above which is placed the box containing tho machinery
 The same wiro which is usod for tel ephonie communication is connected with tie telescriptor, and by mems of n simple manipulation the current can bo directed eithor into the telosoriptor or into the telephone Thus. when q person wishes to use q telephone. after it has been furnished with this now ma ohlno, all he will havo to do will bo to turn on the eulFent and then Writo hia message on tho typewriter. According as it is written the message will be flashed across the wire and an answo will be sent to him in the same man nes New York Herald

A BIG RESERVOIR.

Government Takes Up tle Matter of Irri-
 gation In the West.
 Captain Hiram M. Ghittenden of the corps of engineers of the United States army arrived in Donvar the other day and called at the office of State EnginaoI Sumner to look over tho typographical maps of Colorado, with 8 view to select. ing the most desirable site for a great water storage reservoir.
 Captain Ghittendens mission is one of extraordinary importance to tho agri- cultural interests of Colorado and marks the commencement of federal interest in the western irrigation projects. The idea is to establish 8 government storage res eryoir or lake in tho mountains on the eastern side of tbe divide, which will save huge volumes of water which now run to waste in the spring. The project will, when completed, open up vast areas of now arid region to cultivation
 A start was made last spring, when congress passed the bill authorizing tho construction of great federal reservoirs, one in Wyoming and ono in Colorado. The bill carried with 1t an appropria. tion of $aoo,ooo to defray the expenses of tho surveys and other preliminary work. I have about decided that the proper place to locate the reservoir will Do nit the hoadwatera of the Platte, said Captain Chittenden The Platte is the great distributor of water in Col orado and northwestern Nebraska. will start ont in a few days and loob over the South park region, but active work cannot Do commenced until the heavy snoUs disappear.

Fhe Gcrms of Consumption.

Dr. K. L. Watkins of New York claims to have discovered the indus or nest wherein the germ of consumption is nourished. Instead of waiting for the destroying disease to develop he says physicians may now detect the soil fla vorahlo to its growth. By eliminating this condition the disease may be cured practically before it's inception. For years Dr. Watkins has been working with drops of blood taken from various persons to sec whether or not tho blood has story to tell long in advance of the appearance of disease.

strawberry and King red raspberry are
novelties this season.
The single violets, although subject
to the same diseases, are more hardy
and robust, and therefore better able to
cope with adversities. The old single
variety Shoenbrunn is the most produc-
tive and easiest grown of all the cult
waited violets.
AT the Ohio station the most desirable
