Earle Graeves, son of the late A. s.
Graeves OF Sligo, met with painful acct.
dent last week. AS he was riding along on
his bicycle on the 7th street road near the
gates of entrance to the grounds of the late
Admiral Lee, his wheel swerved into rut
and caused him to take header" which
rendered him unconscious. He was picked
up by his uncle, Mr.. @. B. Graeves, and Mr..
James Smith, who were passing in their
buggies, and conveyed to his home. DR..
Darling, of Brightwood, promptly respond
ed to call, and after examination of the
injured boy pronounced the injuries to be
broken collar bone and partial dislocation
of the right shoulder. Though very painful,
it is not considered that the injuries are neces-
sarily fatal.

The Law ON the Subject great
advance in the price of wheat has caused
many farmers who sold their crops and have
not as yet delivered them to wonder under
what legal obligation they are to deliver
them at the price at which they sold. OF
course no honest man would break his con-
tract, be it ever so injurious to him. But
the point has been raised whether the bar
gain for a sale of the crop is binding where
the buyer has accepted no part Of the crop,
not made any payment and there is no mem
orandum in writing signed by the party to
be bound.
The law, as laid down by the Court OF
Appeals of this StatH, is as follows: Where
none of the three requirements, above men.
toned, of the Statute of Frauds have been
complied with the bargain is not binding if
the crop is ready for delivery when the sale
is made; but if any work and labor is to be
bestowed on the crop before it is In a con.
dition to be delivered, as to- be reaped or
threshed, the bargain is binding. The whole
question arises under a statute which re.
quires one of the three things before cited
to be done in the case of the sale of goods,
wares and merchandise to make binding
contract. In the case where work and labor
is to be put on the thing or article before
delivery it is not within the statute, and
therefore mere verbal agreement is bind
ing The reason why an unfinished article
is not within the statute seems to be that no
part of it could be delivered, if the parties
elected that mode of binding the bargain
The provision of the statute only applies to
cases where the price is ten pounds sterling
or upwards.

A Successful Flying Machine.

An airship made a fairly successful as
censon and voyage from the exposition at
Nashville, Tenn, Thursday. The ship is
a cylindrical shaped balloon, 10 feet in di-
ameter and AZ feet long, with rounding
ends constructed of yellow silk. From
either end an oaken rod reaches down to a
bar to which is attached the light network
surrounding the balloon from the horizon
tai bar running lengthwise. Nickel bars
reach to a third bar on which is fastened
a regular bicycle saddle. Underneath are
pedals controlling 10-foot shaft consisting
of four blades about four feet long and shap-
ed like the blades of a windmill. Hydrogen
gas was used The ascent was unheralded,
as the exhibition company was uncertain
about its success. The airship moved at
the rate of II miles an hour. 1t disap-
peared from view while being watched by
thousands of people. A trip of II miles
was made in less than an hour. Mr.. Bar
nard, the inventor, who made the trip, says
that he has perfected machine which will
fly under any conditions.

A Fredericksburg, Va, man has in his

ssts of three bullets joined together. They
were plowed up on the bloody angle bat
tleiield, near Spottsylvania Court House,
where bullets flew thick and fast during
the fierce fighting at that point in May,
1864, and it is supposed that these bullets
met in midair during the thickest of the
fight and became welded together.

THE NEWS IN BRIEF.
Bell Telephone Victory,

The Berliner Patent Sustained by the
supreme Court---A Monopoly ON the
LOng-DIstance Telephone for IL Years
More.
The Bell Telephone companp won the
case brought against it by the United States
to annul the last Berliner patent. This de-
cision has the effect of continuing the con
troll of the telephone by the Bell company
for II years from the date of the last patent,
which was granted in 1895. The govern
ment asked to have the patent of 1891 set
aside on the ground that the delay of 13
years in the patent Office was fraudulent
and through the fault of the telephone
company and that the patent issued in lSSO
covered the same ground on which the new
patent was applied for in 1891. The Unit
ed States supreme court in its opinion, de-
livered by Justice Brewer, held that there
was no evidence of corruption or undue
influence exercised over the patent office
by the telephone company and that there
was no evidence that the delay in granting
the patent had been brought about by the
company. 1t held that whatever delay
there had been was brought through the
fault of the patent office and by no fault
of the company. Justice Harlan dissented
from the opinion. Justices Gray and
Brown it was announced, took no part in
the case, presumably because they were in
terested The court held that in order to
set aside a patent the government must
establish grounds of relief as clear and
satisfactory as it would to set aside land
patent. All other allegations of the gov
eminent besides that Of delay were over
ruled. This decision by the supreme court
sustains the lower courts.
The Berlner patent controls the princ-
pie of the make and break circuit adopted
from the Morse telegraph instrument and
applied to the making and breaking of
sound waves by vibration under the infu-
ence of the human voice. This vibration
opens and closes the contact between the
little carbon pellets behind the diaphragm,
or sOunder at the mouthpiece in the long
distance speaking instrument. 1t is sim
pie contrivance, but involves practically
the microphone, or sound magnifying prin-
ciple, in which carbon is the chief element.
Carbon is the greatest sound magniier
known. One effect of the decision was
the immediate advance in the price of Bell
telephone stock.
