The water of Rome has a worldwide

to Rome by fourteen aqueducts, the
length of which varied from mini

nine miles. The aggregate length OF

The youngest daughter of Nathan
lei Greene used to relate n story of her
life Mt Dungeness, says writer in the
Century, where Il circumstance occurred
Of some historic and scientific interest
and in regard to which much erroneous
statement has been made. L refer to
the invention of the cotton gin by Ell
Whitney, and my mothers connection
with II. The facts, briefly stated, were
about as follows: While spending the
previous summer at Newport, r. l., my
mother became acquainted with Mr.
Whitney, and grew interested in the
outcome of the experiments he was
then making in the Interest of his
projected gin. To assist In his enter
prise my mother invited him to spend
the following winter at Dungeness,
where an abundance of cotton and
quiet could be assured. Mr.. Whitney
accordingly came to Dungeness, and
diligently pursued his experiments, n
room In the fifth story having been
specially fitted up for his use as an In
ventor. One morning he descended
head-long into the drawing-room,
bled. and excitedly exclaimed, "The
victory is miner' In deep sympathy
with him the guests and hostess went
with him to his workshop. Whitney set
his model In motion. For few min
utes the miniature saws revolved with
out hindrance, and the separation of the
seed from the cotton wool was sue
cessfully accomplished: but after a lit
tie the saws clogged with lint, the
wheel stopped and poor Whitney was
in despair. Here's what you needv
exclaimed my mother, in her clear. de-
clslve way: and she Instantly seized a
clothes brush lying on the mantel and
held It firmly to the teeth OF the saws.
Again the drum revolved. and Instant
ly the saws were cleaned of the lint.
and the last requirement of the great
invention was satisfied. Madame" said
whitney. overcome with emotion and
speaking with the exaggeration OF
gratitude. you have perfected my In
vention."

Awakening Mt Pioche.

An awakening has come in A. O.
u. w. circles at Phoebe. The Lodge
at that place sent in nine new appli-
cations last week, and will have
more soon. Six of the applications
sent in were passed by the Grand
Medical Examiner and three were
laid over by that officer awaiting
the report of the local Medical Kx-
aminer, DR.. J. D. Campbell, as to his
success in vaccinating the appli-
cants, who had not been successful
ly vaccinated before.
While the Grand Lodge had an
organizer in the field last year it
contemplated sending him to Phoebe
on extension work, but the funds
were rather low, and the trip was
not made. The Brethren in this Sec
ton of the Jurisdiction hail with
delight the good news of the renew
ed interest being taken to secure
new members in the eastern portion
of the State, and hope the good work
will continue until every available
sabject has been brought into the
traternal fold.
