SCOPE OF COLUMBIA'S
COURSE TN CHINESE.
TO TRAIN DIPLOMATS FOR EAST.
Dr. Butler Tells of GIFT Promised by
China-PIanS of the New
Northumberland
of the Chair.

NEW YORK, Dec. 30-Dr. Nicholas
Murray Butler. the acting president Of Co.
lumbia University. speaking of the gift of
the Chinese Government to that institu-
tion, said:
The cable despatch is in Lee with a
letter which I received in the last China
mail from United States Minister Conger
in this letter Mr.. Conger said that he had
been advised by the Chinese Foreign Of
fee that the Chinese Government was pre-
pairing collection of educational data re
be given TO Columbia University in reeog-
milton Of the establishment of chair of
Chinese language, history, and literature
in the university.
An Interesting Collection
This is undoubtedly the collection TO
which the correspondent il Peldn refers.
I have not heard anything myself on the
subject since the receipt of Mr. Conger's
letter It is a very interesting matter and
the collection undoubtedly viii be just
what want.
1t was last June that the chair Of
Chinese language history. aR6 literature
was endowed. and at that time the gift TO
the university was anonymous The first
gift WAS Of $780, eco and was subsequently
increased by $12 900 more. AS far as the
university is concerned there has been no
release, so far as ] know, OF the under
standing that the name of the founder Of
the chair be not made public.
1t IS the intention 70 make this de-
partment Of study in the university a very
comprehensive one The plans that we
have considered in outline are very large
of broad scope For that reason thers
is disposition to move slowly at the out
set. We DO not wish TO take steps that
We may have TO retTace-
To Equip Diplomats.
1T is the idea in studying Chinese mat
tiers that our diplomats and those repre-
senting the country OF American interests
in any way shall have the opportunity to
make themselves acquainted with the peo-
pie among whom they are going. their
language, customs, literature, and their
point Of view, which in so many ways fs
different from or own.
We hope 10 establish IN Columbia a
chair that will cover these matters and
history OF the Or 1t generally, in q broad
and cOmprehens9 way
The gentleman , endowed the Column
bic Chinese chair Is Mr. Horace W Car
pentier. of los East Thirty-seyenth Street.

VOICE LIKE BoANEReE,s
monograph That Can Re Heard Ten
Miles Away.

Miles Away.
A phonograph that shouts so loudly that
every word can be head at a distance CT
ten miles has been tested at Brighton.
You can whisper sentence into the ma
chimes small, funneI-shaped mouth piece,
and it will repeat It in tones that are
more deafeEing than the shrieks of q
liners steam siren. Yet every word IS
perfectly articulated. and a shorthand
writer ten miles away can take down the
message as easily as if you were dictat-
ing TO him in q small room.
The machine is the invention of Horace
L Short OF Brighton. In appearance it
is merely an ordinary monograph with a
large trumpet, measuring four feet in
length Inside this trumpet there is a
small delicate piece of mechanism, that
looks something like whistle This is
the tongue of the machine.
Instead OF the records" being taken
on wax in the usual manner, a sapphire
needle is made to cut the dots represent
ing the sound vibrations on q silver cylin
der, and when the needle travels over the
metal a second time the vibrations cause
the whistle to produce series of air
waves, and the machine thus becomes
talking siren, which transforms fne hui
man voice into a deafenfng roar.
The experiments were made near the
Devils Dyke, Brighton, where the inven-
tor has his workshops The iustrumes,
was placed on the roof of the laboratory.
and was made to repeat a number of sen
fences.
At distance of ten miles the sounds
were plainly heard by a large number Of
people. every word being perfectly dis
tinct and at second trial. with a favor-
able wind i was found that an unknown
message could De taken down in short
hand at a distance OF twelve miles
Over the water the sounds will carry
stu farther, and under favorable etreum-
stances they might easily be beard by per-
sons on vessel fifteen miles out at sea
Placed on lighthouse or Hghtship, the
photograph would give .. verbal warning
that would be infinitely more effective
than the foghorns and decorators at pres.
ent in use--London Mail.
