roaaIla Found by x-Rara.

A curious application Of the X-rays
to the discovery Of unseen things was
recently made by Monsieur Lemoine at
Rheims. The chalk strata in that part
of France contain the fossil bones Of
birds, reptiles and mammals, aad fire.
ouently these are shattered in the at
tempt at removal. 1t occurred to Mon
sieur Lemoine that the embedded fos-
sils might be photographed by aid Of
the X-rays, since the latter pass read
lily through chalk, but are largely in
tercepted by the phosphates Of bones.
It is reported that his photographs
clearly indicate the details Of the hid
den fossils.

MISS DURELL.

OF the school department and its pat
rons for her cleverness in imparting
knowledge, she being teacher in the
San Francisco public schools. The
young people with whom she associated
were on pleasure bent, and stories were
circulated Of midnight champagne sup
pers and select parties. Once mas
querade ball was held at Harmony hall
which was very swell affair Every
body was there, including Miss O'Brien
and her set. There were many daring
innovations in the way of costumes,
some of which were conspicuous be-
cause of the richness and quantity Of
the material Of which they were COM
posed. Miss o'Brien burst forth In
natural loneliness and appeared as a
butterfly. The school authorities be-
gan an investigation. The fact was
revealed that the butterfly queen was
the wife Of Frederick Castle. She had
been married by contract. She had
gained unenvlable notorlety and soon
after departed.

Lennox in "Only Farmers Daugh-

construction Of a religious tragedy,
1.-THE Cruclhxion Of Christ" which he
afterward arranged in an epic poem en-
titled "The Sacrifice" which he pub

Ph0nograph.

Ph0nograph.
BY means Of a novel application Of
the photograph, New York has become
the center of new industry for the
study Of languages. Photographs load
ed with variety of foreign tongues
are now sent out from New York to
all parts Of the country. The man who
has adapted the photograph to this
profession is r. d. Cortina, and he has
been so successful that already he has
sent out over 500 machines, all loaded
with his instruction and primed with
his voice. His method is simple. With
each monograph there is sent his text
book, twenty loaded cylinders and
twenty blank ones. Each lesson in the
book Is arranged in the form of CUES
tons and answers. The pupil, ready
to begin, puts the cylinder Of the hrst
lesson in the machine, the tubes In
his ears and starts the phonograph.
Keeping his eyes on the book, he
hears the words and phrases repeated,
with their proper accent, just as II the
professor stood at his side. There is
an additional advantage that the les
son can be repeated twenty or hun
dred times II necessary, until every
sound is familiar to the pupil. Then,
having thoroughly learned these SEN
fences, he puts one OF his unused cyl
inders In the machine and repeats the
lesson. In little paper box the cyl
inder comes back to New York, and at
his earliest opportunity Mr.. Cortina
pops 1t into his own machine. At his
side is the stenographer. AS he lis
tenn to the lesson repeated back, now
stopping the photograph, now starting
1t going again, he dictates his criticism,
where the pronunciation is wrong,
what is right, what the mistakes are,
and where they have been made. The
letter and the cylinder go back to the
