Seeing by Wire.

Nearly two years ago it was an nounced with some sensation in most of the daily newspapers that a certain Jan Szczepanik had invented an appa- ratus for seeing by wire, much in the same way as one can hear by wire through the medium of a telephone. The publication of his patent, in due course, however, revealed nothing more than the old selenium cell idea of phy- sicians in a dress of no very startling novelty, and it was fair to surmise that
 Szczepanik was no different from the many working at this enticing problem, except in so far as he had been indis- erect enough to make premature an nouncement of success.-London Elec-

Arizona is becoming very fashion able ID the east, said Mrs. Brodie, the brilliant wife of Col Alex. O. Brodie, who spent few days of last week in Phenix with her husband. I've don't hear so much about the orange groves Of Florida as We did in years gone by. The sonth has lost it's attraction for the fashionable people and one often hears of Phe- nix and the delightful winter clim- ate. It IS a new place and I am glad that it has been discovered by the fashionable people of the east. In my eastern home I frequently heard of Phenix. 1 have observed with pleasure the popularity that Arizona has earned in the east, and look forward to see Phenix the most fashionable winter resort in the country. y.,Phenix Herald.
