AN ELECTRIC CRADLE.
Up to Date Contrivance Used in the
Edison Household for the Babv.

New York, Oct. 31.-When Thomas A
Edison's second daughter was born his
technical assistants in the laboratory at
orange presented him with plans for a
cradle intended to save Mrs Edison
much of the worry and trouble usually
expeI fenced by mothers.
Several other ideas were submitted to
the committee, but the thought of the
wizard amblng up and down the room
in the dead of night, Occa asionalIv stem
ping on semi-submerged tack was too
much for them. So the cradle was de-
cided on. It was called the Automatic
Electric Baby Tender"
1t was an ordinary cradle, with in
geniOus devices for the child's comfort
attached- Immediately above the spot
where the baby's head would lie was a
diaphragm, somewhat like a telephone
receiver. If the infant should start crv
ing at the very first wall communion
ton was established between the dia-
phragm and an electric clock At the
same time the cradle was set rocking
by means of small motor. If the re-
monStrance continued beyond a certa in
time the clock released a lever and an
arm attached to the side of the cradle
(operated by what is called a bell crank
leVer), carrying a nursing bottle, was
swung over the baby's mouth
If hunger was not the trouble and the
walls continued another arm, on the op-
posite side, swung over the chiId's
mouth with paregOric. At the same time
the electric current was turned into a
set of magnets placed around the cradle
and any pin which might be causing the
trouble would be at once removed
If the yells continued the Thirty
third Degree" was applied. Two arms,
lying fiat in the cradle under the babv
were slowly raised and the child turned
over. Then an electric spanker, fasten-
ed to the footboard, proceeded to do its
work with neatness and dispatch.
However, Mr.. Edison persists in re-
garding the baby's joy electric cradle as
a joke.

DIED OF FRIGHT.
Fate of an 18 Year Old Girl After

Clyde. N. Y, Oct. 31.-Miss Lettfe
Mae Hall, IS years old, has died of
fright. In a spirit of fun she and three
others visited a fortune TELLER That
worthy told Miss Hall that she had
barely three days to live. The girl near
ly tainted, and continued moody and
low spirited from that moment, though
in apparently perfect health when the
prediction was made.
Saturday evening she was taken i'll in
church, and became unconscious before
she had reached home She continued
in cOmatOse state until Sunday, when
she awOke as from a trance, called her
relatives about her, said she knew that
she had only a few hours more to live
and after distributing gifts among
them and bidding them farewell, again
became unconscious. She died in the
afternoon.

EMFR GENCV III FET
EMERGENCY
Is Being Gathered With All
Possible Speed.
Volunteers Ordered to Prepare
For Mobilization.

London, Oct. 31.-There was an unex-
pected gloomy feeling this morning on
the stock exchange and the Paris
bourse, both these markets being in
fuenced, it is inferred, from the ag-
gressive tone of some of the French pa
pers. Besides this something extrj or
binary seems to have happened and it
looks as if a crisis were approaching.
The British naval preparations are
being pushed with great activity. The
British emergency squadron is gather
irg at Devonport with all possible
speed. Seven battleships and one cruis-
er have thus far been designated to join
the squadron.
officers and sailors have been hur-
r!edly recalled from leave of absence,
several battleships and cruisers at
Portsmouth are taking their full crews
on board and other war-like prepara-
tions are being made. A number of
signal men now on duty with the Brit
ish channel squadron, which arrived at
Gibraltar this morning have been or
dered home for service, it is presumed,
on board the auxiliary cruisers, if the
latter should be required for active SER
vice
A sensation has been caused by the
arrest this morning of a supposed Rus
sian spy at a fort near Harwich. The
man was already under surveillance
and went to a redoubt where he tried
to obtain some information from a SEN
try regarding the fortifcations. He was
promptly arrested and inquiries are be-
ing made regarding his antecedents.
It was also asserted today that the
commanding officers of the London vol
unteer regiments had received orders
to prepare for immediate mobilization
and it was asserted that the different
artillery corps have been informed as
to the forts on the southern and eastern
coasts to which they have been allotted.
The Pail Mall Gazette this afternoon
says:
England has been, and even now is
so near war that the government has
carried its preparations to the farthest
limit of the preparatory stage. It has
been arranged to call out the reserves
and militia and to mobilize the voIun
teers simultaneously and to form large
camps at various important railroad
functions, where rolling stock and loco
motives will be concentrated.

MOVING ON FRANCE.
British War Vessel Leaves For
the Society Islands.

Victoria, B. G., Oct. 31.-The departure
of her majesty's ship Amphion, Sunday,
for the Society islands, the French col
ony in the South seas, did not lessen the
activity at the Esquimault naval sta
ton. AS soon as she left the wharf at
the dock yard, the dock yard crew was
detailed to get the dry dock in readi-
ness for the reception Of her majesty's
ship Leander. She, too, is to go on
long voyage, or at least be in readiness
for any duty that she may be called up
on to perform.
The most significant feature outside
of the departure of the Amphion,
however, is the activity on her majes-
tvs ship Imperieuse, Admiral Palliser's
flag ship. Sunday a large number of
men were given shore leave, a very un-
usual thing on Sunday and this morning
she commenced cOaling. It is UNDER
stood that she goes out under orders
Thursday, but it not likely that she win
follow the AmphiOn as that would leave
Esquimault with a small feet, the Le-
ander Icarus, two torpedo boat de-
stroyers and two torpedo boats.

COLORED VOTERS RALLY.
A Good Sized Crowd Turned Out to
the Hamilton Hall Meeting.

Hamilton hall was filed at the pOliti-
cal meeting Saturday night, at which
W. L. Townsend of LeavenwOrth and
w. T. Vernon of WyandOtte county pre-
sented the claims of the Republican par
ty to the negro vote this year, and tried
to combat the claims of Governor Leedy
and the POpulists.
The audience was made up largely of
colored people, and the music was fur
nished by what was formerly Jackson's
Military band. Before the meeting be-
gan the f1ambeau clubs paraded, led by
a drum corps and the boys bugle corps.
A fireworks display was also given.
James H. Guy presided over the meet
ing and introduced the speakers W. L.
Townsend, who spoke first, dwelt on the
asylum scandals, and described the all
legged murder of ''Hookey jim" display
ing the piece of hose with which it is all
legged Hockey Jim" was beaten. He
said that Governor Leedy had insulted
the colored voters by trying to buy
their support by commissioning colored
men to command cOlored troops.
After Mr. Townsend came Mr.. YER

tiona1 issues, and claimed that the ne
groes are a thousand times more indebt-
ed to the Republican party that they are

CUT INTO HIS BRAIN.
Chicago Surgeons Remove the Cause
of Lawyer Golfers Insanity.

Chicago, Oct. S1.-Frank Howard Col
Her, until recently a very prosperous
lawyer today submitted to an operation
which he hopes will result in the COM
plete removal of the cloud that has rest
ed over his mind through a political
thugs bludgeon ten years ago.
DR.. T. A. Davis, chief of the operating
staff Of the Central hospital, assisted by
several surgeons, removed a button of
bone from the place of injury shown by
the external scar and the Skiagraph
which was taken recently. The de-
preston which was disclosed measured
three -siXteenthS of an inch. The men,
branes were all found to be adhesive.
The dura, or hard membrane between
the brain and the skull tissue, was
pierced a distance of three -fourths of an
inch, but the pulsation could be OBJ
served.
A portion of the brain was found to be
pressed outward by some internal cause,
which led DR.. Davis to suspect the ex-
iStence OF a tumor or cyst. 1t was de-
cided, however, not to continue the op-
Grafton for the purpose of locating it.
Mr.. Collier bore the operation we'll and
rallied quickly from the effects of it. 1t
IS the intention of DR.. Davis, after the
patient has recovered, to enlarge the
opening in the skull and make an ef-
fort to locate the tunor and remove it.
we nave at least demonstrated that
Frank was right when he claimed that
MS trouble was the result of the blow
he sustained said DR.. Davis. ''I think
we nave done some good, and we hope
to do him more good still.'
Collier had very lucrative law prac-
tice and was known all over Illinois He
took an active interest in a political
canvass in this city a few years ago
and made enemies, and while returning
from night meeting he was "slugged"
After that he was scatter Drained.
foolishly extravagant and plainly out of
sorts mentally. His joviality never de-
serted him, however: He Iaughingly
declared that he was as smart as ever.
Last month he went to New York and
consulted experts as to the possibilities
resulting from opening the skull to the
brain. He was satisfied and returned
here for the operation. Mr. Collier
showed no nervousness as he approach
ed the operation, which he believed
would either cure or kill. He produced
a viii and asked DR.. F. c. Former. DR..
Edwin Lee and DR.. Edwin AilIenbrown
to sign 1t as witnesses.
Ihe operation lasted nearly two
hours. Ether was first given in q cone.

TO STARTLE ALL INDIA.
Lady Curzon's Gowns Triumph of
Partisan Art.

London, Oct. 31.-Lady Curzon of
Kedleston, born Letter of Chicago, is
getting together such an array of cos
tunes for the Indian viceroyalty as has
never been seen in the Indian court be-
fore. She has just returned after a
week in Paris, where the whole time was
devoted to frocks.
She stayed at the Hotel de France ct
do Choiseul, and had a special reception
room, where for several hours daily she
saw a succession of the most famous
Partisan costume designers. The orders
to Worth alone are said to reach $4,000.
Lord Curzon came to London Wednes-
day to meet her. They then took formal
possession of the splendid mansion on
Carlton House Terrace, presented to
them by Mr.. Letter. Mrs. Curzons
father. 1t cost $19S,75O. The Curzons
rent Arthur Balfour's house, next door,
as he now occupies the first lord of the
treasury's official residence, on Down
ing street.
Lord Curzon's health is improved, but
it was noted last night at the Etonian
dinner given to him, which was pre-
sided over by Lord Rosebery-that his
complexion assumed that ominous hectic
hue when speaking that was remarked
so much in parliament at the last ses-

FRANCE WILL LET GO
Of Fashoda in Order to Get a Better
Hold

Paris. Oct. S1.-The Eclaire today says
it learns on reliable authority that the
Fashoda question will be settled favor
ably to Great Britain by the recall of
Major Marchand. France, the paper
adds, yields all, reserving only the
question of the right to the Bahr-El-
Ghazel district, which she does not con-
slider as belonging to Egypt
Continuing, the Eclaire remarks:
IN. Delcasse, however. has now de-
cided to raise the whole Egyptian ques-
tion which should have been done from
the first and thus avoid the humiliation
of yielding to the British ultimatum
When the question is thus enlarged,
France will not be alone in its discus
sion with the Marquis of Salisbury
Egypt interests all the powers Russia
has promised NJ. Delcasse its most effec-
tive assistance and besides Germany
has the biggest interest, in view of her
east African possessions and trade in
the far east, that the Suez canal should
not become exclusively British and is
disposed to support Franco Russian
arguments for a definite settlement of
the Egyptian question:

J.P. MORGAN'S GIFT.
Presents the New York Yacht Club
With $15o,OOO Site for
New Home.

New York, Oct 31.-J. Pierpont Nor
gan has presented the New York Yacht
club with a site for the proposed new
club house. The value as appraised is
$15O, 600.
The gift came as a surprise. Plans
for a change to larger and better quar-
ters had been under discussion for some
time. A new house was needed. The
large and increasing membership de-
manded it.
The new club house win cost $780, 900.
Bonds will probably be issued for this
amount, though in the enthusiasm last
evening 1t was said that gifts for this
purpose from many wealthy members
of the club might follow
The New York Yacht club organized
in 1874 on the deck of Commodore Ste
vens' schooner Gimcrack. 1t has had
a New York home since 1871. In May
of that year the club took rooms in the
American Jockey Club building, at Mad
ison square and Twenty seventh street,
and remained there until May 1, 1884,
when it moved to it's present home, a
half block uptown.
The membership of the club has in
creased from 360 in 1884 to 1850, includ-
ing the naval contingent.

NATURAL GAS DOOMED.
Belt Shows Lower Pressure
and May Soon Give Out.

Hagerstown. Ind, Oct 31.-The Hagers-
town Natural Gas company has just
brought in it's last well, which shows but
a faint trace of gas, not enough to justify
piping.
This well was drilled in territory which
heretofore developest wells Of strong press
ure and the fact that this one is an ab-
solute failure is Indication, in the opin-
ion of experts. that the supply of gas IS
surely becoming exhausted

belt is about 200 pounds less than when
was was first discovered. The HagerS-

HOPEFUL IN BARTON.
Republicans Expect to Reduce the
Populist Majority.

Great Bend, Oct. 31-Barton county
Republicans believe that they will be
able to overcome the large Populist ma
Jor1ty to a certain extent, although there
are few among the local managers who
profess the hope of defeating the Popu-
list ticket There is some opposition
here to Jerry Simpson while those who
have been disposed to criticise Chester
Long seem to be lining up with the in
tention of supporting him on election
day.
Sympathizers with Brown of Pratt
here are working against Simpson and
while not openly supporting the Repub-
lican candidate, suggest that it would
be better to vote for Long rather than
Simpson. The main suggestion, how
ever, is to omit marking the square op-
pOstte Simpsons name. The reason the
hight is being made so strongly against
simpson here is that he is very popular
among the rank and file of the party.
Although Mr.. Stanley had an excel
lent meeting here Saturday afternoon
the Republican managers admit that
Simpson had a larger crowd This is
the first time at the meetings in this
district where Mr.. StanIey's crowds
have not exceeded those out to hear
the opposition speakers. Mr.. Stanley
spoke in the afternoon and the opera
house was filed with members of all
parties.
