A Gigantic Megaphone

An enormous megaphpne has
been erected at Faulkner's Island
Conn, on the government light
house reservation, for testing a
new system of fog signals. The
megaphone is II feet long and 7
feet in diameter at the mout h.
Attached to it is II inch stea m
siren. The whole contrivance is
mounted on circular platform %
feet in diameter, so that it can be
revolved to any point of the com
pass. Different signals can be
made from each point of the COM
pass. The object of the invention
is to throw the sound waves in a
certain direction to the exclusion
of any other direction, SO that any
vessel approaching the signaling
station in a fog shall hear only the
sound which is given when the
megaphone is pointed directly at
it. That is to say, if the signal
means north, the fog signal must
be due north of the vessel, or those
on the latter could not hear that
particular signal. The instrument
has been tested and it is found
that the sound was heard 10. miles
away when the observer was stand
ing in line with the axis of the
megaphone, but nothing could be
heard of the sounds sent to other
points of the compass when at a

Trouble Wasn't Unexpected.

Trouble with the Utes in the
vicinity of Rife has been antici-
pated by State Game and Fish
Warden johnson. The message
that the Indians were off the reser-
vation and engaged in slaughter
ing deer was not, therefore. unex-
pected.
Some time ago two chief game
wardens we're sent to the country
in the vicinity of Rife to assist
the regular wardens stationed there
in watching for Indians and pre-
venting the illegal slaughter of
deer. These men were instructed
to arrest any of the redskins found
violating the game laws, and there
may be conflict at any time.
No report had been received at
the Office of the warden last eveu-
ing, but one was expected at any
time. 1t was stated that the tele-
gram was undoubtedly true, as
there had been indications of a
troublesome expedition on the part
of the Indians for some time.
An effort will be made to have
the federal government take a
more active hand in preventing
the Indians from violating the
game laws of the state. With this
end in view the state warden will
soon open up correspondence with
the department Heretofore the
state wardens have done all of the
work of turning the Indians back
to their reservations. = Denver

ceived the appointment. Now the
salary attached to the position was
two thousand dollars, made so by
the immense number of postage
stamps purchased by Mr.. Warren
for mailing circulars. But since
the present postmaster took his
position, not single stamp has
Mr.. Warren bought at the local
office, with the result that the
salary has been cut to nine hun
dred dollars. And the present
postmaster is a lay member of the
church of which Mr.. Warren is
president.
Such is Three Oaks, the little
town that so suddenly jumped in
to prominence, and to which the
Denver Times now extends sym
pathy. Well, it needs sympathy.

New Government Printing Office

The new government printing
office will cost about S2,0O0,0OO,
and it is said that even after its
completion it will not be large
enough to meet the demands upon
it. The new building will be eight
stories in height, and its floor
space will be about nine acres.
The floors will sustain n load of
CO, 100000 pounds. The building
will be constructed in such a sub
stantial manner that nearly the en-
tire space can be filled with paper
and books without injuring its sta
bility in any degree. Access to
the various floors will be obtained
by twelve electric elevators. The
building will be lighted with 1000
lncandescent lights. A refrigerat-
ing plant will furnish cold, filtered
water on every floor for drinking
purposes. A large orematory will
destroy all the refuse material, and
this will aid in heating water, etc.
1t is hoped in time that congress
will appropriate the money for
modern typesetting machines, but
it is probable that when the CEN
sus is complete and the reports
published, the equipment of the
census printing office will revert
to the government printing office.

"A FALLEN OAK. 4"

the Denver Times explains tnat
the star of glory which recently
appeared above the horizon of
Three Oaks, Michigan, is about to
set as rapidly as it arose, and the
map designed by the oracle of
Three Oaks, E. X. Warren, which
showed only San Francisco, Chi
cago, Three Oaks and New York.
will fade out of existence. 1t
seems that Admiral Dewey con-
tributed to the Maine monument
fund, Spanish brass cannon, cap
tured by him at Manila, and this
was awarded to the village of Three
Oaks, for having contributed to
the fund the largest sum in pro-
portion to its population, of any
town or city in the United States.
The cannon arrived and was placed
on mound in the rear of the
principle livery stable, that being
the only available place, to be un-
yelled by the admiral himself
when he should visit that place
this fall. But according to the
Times, the admiral had engaged
to lift the veil from more valuable
prize, also captured by him, so he
cancelled his Three Oaks date.
Now a competitor of Three Oaks
has sprung surprise which brings
despair to the proud little hamlet.
This competitor is Kalamazoo.
Secretary Long says he has
never received any official notice
of the capture of such a cannon,
and that if Dewey did take it, it
belongs to the government and the
admiral has no right to give it
away. And so the cannon is in
dry dock for the winter, and an
Off cial investigation is pending.
The editor of this paper knows
Three Oaks we'll. 1t is little
two by four country hamlet, owned
and governed, body and soul, by
one man. 1t has one industry. the
manufacture of featherbone, known
to most ladies as a substitute for
whalebone, and that industry
makes Three Oaks. This article
is manufactured by the Warren
Featherbone company, a corpora
ton of which Z. X. Warren is
president. Mr.. Warren is also
president of the Warren Feather
bone Whip company, of the Three
Oaks Exchange Bank, OF the vii
lage of Three Oaks, of the First
Congregational church, of the
County Sabbath School organiza-
tion, and is superintendent of the
Congregational Sabbath School.
What be says goes, for woe to the
helpless wight employed in the
factory, who dares to ignore the
edicts of the many-times- president
Warren.
Two years ago this framer of
the destinies of Three Oaks fell
down on one proposition, but he is
enjoyinga revenge during each day
such as he argues against each
Sunday. He made an attem pit to
have one of the officers of his bank
appointed postmaster, but his pull
with the congressm was too
weak, and leading politician re-
