The old Scotchwoman who liked her
minister because he joombles the
joodment an confoonds the sense"
would have appreciated a bit of British
legislation which the premier seems to
view with sardonic amusement. In
an act of Parliament" says Lord
Salisbury. which authorizes us to
press forward technical instruction. 1t
is distinctly said that technical in
struction does not mean instruction in
any art, or craft. or livelihood. OF
course it is rather difficult under those
circumstance to know what it does
mean. but If you will go forward in the
act of Parliament you will find that 1t
means the cultivation of foreign lam
guages." This is diverting indeed, but
the humor of the thing does not limit
its significance. Probably the British
legislator did not know exactly what
he did want. A~ssuredly he is not the
first man who has found it hard to
draw a clear distinction betwixt you
may, you must, you cannot, and you
should"

Great interest has been aroused by
the announcement of n new race
around the world by reporters of news
papers of different nationalities, says
the Paris correspondent of the Chicago
Inter Ocean. The start will be made
early next week, and it is expected that
all records will be broken. As the
trans-Siberian railway will be used in
stead of a ship to get from the extreme
Orient to Europe, some estimate that
the trip cal be made in between forty
five and fifty days. The conditions
preclude chartering private convey
ances, but allor choice of railway and
steamship routes. The betting is al
ready considerable.

that one of its own men, Henri Turot,
would start in an opposite direction,
by the way of New York, and try to
beat the time of lie Mathis represent

himself ready to start at the same time
as the other two. Finally yesterday
an English paper announced that it
would enter the race.

Exercise cannot with impunity be

men would be all the better for walk

A bill in the New York legislature
proposes to give electric railway com

promoting general competition with
existing roads. The propriety of put

similar to those placed upon the steam
roads with which they are expected to
sompete has taken form in some of The
legislatures, and the Michigan house
has passed a bill requiring owners and
managers of interurban electric lines

The omnigraph, as a new instrument
designed to teach the art of telegraphy
is called, consists of a Dashboard on
which are secured an ordinary key
and sounder, between which a disk is
mounted, formed on its periphery with
teeth. A spring contact adjacent to
the wheel engages the peripheral teeth
OF the disk. Although irregular. the
arrangement of the teeth is arbitrary.
For If the disk be rotated by means of
n small crank shaft geared with
the disk shaft, the spring contact is
forced outwardly by the teeth, but
drops back by its own elasticity and
thus makes and breaks the circuit. The
experienced telegraph operator detect
ing these makes and breaks at the
sounder recognizes them as the dots
n dashes of the Morse alphabet.

had only closed for general business

bank was started two or three months

the foreign pOtentates failed TO put up
their share of the cash and the local
stockholders want to make every body
W ole and have closed down general
business. The same parties also start
ed bank at Louisville some time ago,
but the home people took hold of the
concern themselves and crowded the
parties out, as they had put nothing in
but the safe. Whether the George
town stock holders will continue the
bank will be determined later on, it is
rumored that they may have the for
eign projectors arrested, but nothing
has been done in the matter yet.-Eu-

young men are running up telephone
poles and stringing wires as nimbly as
before, and the hello girls are proud Of
their victory.
They expressed their displeasure at
the company's action. The sympathy
Of the patrons of the line was with the
girls, although it was evident the serv-
ice was not so good.
1--WE are willing to not talk with the
linemen over the wire," said Miss Eta
Prince, a pretty. black eyed girl. who
is one of the most expert operators in
the telephone company's employ. I'VE
don't object to that rule, but we will
not let the company say what we shall
do when we are off duty"
Indeed we will not" chimed in Miss
Ada Moore. "If we want to attend a
party and choose to receive the atten-
lions of the linemen while there, 1t is
no concern of the company. 1t wasn't
fair to discharge the men just because
we were on friendly terms"
