consists of a tootned barrel, four wheels and a fly wheel. It can run for 12 hours without being wound, and a small bolt sufices to stop it and set it in motion. The large arm of the telegraph, known as the regu- lator, turns now in one direction, now in another, and so forms various sig nals. The small wings, or indicators, are moved by wires which are con nected with puileys. Only four differ ent figures can be produced by the mechanism, but each of these can be so modified that it becomes quite easy to make no Jess than 196 tele- graphic signals.
 This old clock is still in perfect working order, and several old per sons in France say they remember seeing telegraph instruments of this kind in their youth, and that they worked we'll, except when there was a mist or fog, for then their signals -=ere entirely invisible.

.THE PARISH PRIEST"

The sale of seats for Daniel Sully's presentation of sThe Parish Priest
 tO-m0rrow evening at Polls opened up quite large this morning, indicating that when the curtain goes up to-mor- row evening a very full house will greet AIr Sully. Few plays have made a better impression here or elsewhere than this pretty idyllic tale of love and heart interest, and critics and public alike have commended most highly NIT I. Sully's fine conception of the charac- ter of Father Whalen. This presenta- ton brings into view a beautiful and tender homeliness and a noble sheer ffy as well as a courageous manlinesS that arouses sympathetic interest and raises the spectator quite above mere theatrical convention. There is in the character no false sentiment; he speaks no fustian and he performs no superhuman acts, but he interests us at the moment of his first appearance on the scene and compels us to go with him through all the vicissitudes of his character till his final triumph and as-' surance of the battle won. Like the '+Old Homestead" shore Acres" and plays of that character, 'The Parish Priest is a distinct character play, and it is destined to have an existence as long as MT Sully lives to play the leading role. With the excellent sup porting company he has secured for this season, he will undoubtedly give us the best presentation we have yet had of s'The Parish Priest" Prices are 9, 35, 50, 75 cents and $1.

BULLDOGS CORK LEG.
Denver Canine of High Repute Is Mensuxed for an Artificial
 Member.

-Jim," the pet of the Union depot, Is to have a new leg, reports the Den yer Republican. For the past year Jim. brindle, part bull and the rest plain dog, has hobbled around the baggage room at the Union depot on three legs. All he has left of the fourth is a stump. Jim was sleeping on the railroad track about year ago, and before he could get out of the way a passing train ran over his leg. The men at the depot now think Jim should have a new leg.
 The manner in which the injured member healed makes it hard for the dog to wear an artificial leg. Ere quent trips have been made to a veterinary. It has been decided to have an operation. so that the leg may properly heals Jim is then to be measured for a cork leg-best leg that money can buy.
 Though Jim has few tricks. he is dog of extraordinary intelligence. He is the friend of every man in the depot. His headquarters are in the mailroom of the depot. Every truck which is rolled to the incoming and outgoing trains finds Jim perched upon it. His chief duty is to guard loose sacks, which are sometimes left on the platform. and to look after fhe mailroom when the clerks are away. No one dares to enter the room while he is on guard An at tempt to go near mail truck while proper guardians are away rouses his anger and his voice. Some time ago he drifted into the depot and took mp quarters in the mailroom- He has been there ever since.

One of the most curious clocks in the world represents square tower ornamented with dial, and it is sur mounted by an aerial telegraph. At the base is fountain, and while this flows the arms of the telegraph are also in motion giving regular signals. This primitive method of telegraph ing was definitely edoptsd by the na- tional convention, in Paris, on July 25, 1793. During the wars of the French republic and empire it rem dered great service and did not fall into disuse until the close of the Crimean war.
 The mechanism of the clock, says the New York Herald, moves the tele- graph and the fountain. It is placed in the lower part of the tower and

 "This mattress boat" says the in- ventor, ''can be used in place of the ordinary mattress on transatlantic or other vessels. In this way passen- gers can immediately lay their hands on rafts which will prove of infinite service to them in case of shipwreck. It can also be used by explorers as an ordinary sleeping couch, and, further more, it has for them the additional advantage that it can be easily raised above the ground and thus enable them to avoid coming in contact at any time with the damp earth. In such cases, however, the space between the mattress and the earth should be filled with dry leaves or small branches of trees. Moreover, as boat of this kind cannot sink, explorers would find 1t extremely useful in crossing rapid rivers or other streams.p

bassador White is
 about to resign his post at Berlin and retire to private life. The tragic death of his son, coupled with the marital troubles of his daughter, make it seem imperative that he return to America. Ambassador White has served his country long and honnrably.
 Andrew D. White was born in Gen. tral New York in 1892. He was pre- pared for college at Syracuse, and later became member of the famous class of '53'' at Yale. He spent some months in European travel, and in 1854 was chosen attache of the American legation at St. Petersburg. It was dur ing the Crimean war young White be- gan his diplomatic career, and he found his post had considerable work con nected with it. After this experience he studied at the University of Berlin, making preparation for his future work as teacher. He then returned to America to fill the professorship of history in the University of Michigan and remained in this position till 1862. We next hear of him in the New York legisla ture, where he was instrumental in securing to New York 100000 acres of land under the United States agri- cultural college land grant. Here he became acquainted with Ezra Cornell, and he it was that helped the rich old man in the founding and building up of Cornell university. For 20 years Dr. White was president of Cornell.
