AS TO FLAT SIGNALLING.
A Telegraph Operator Demonstrates
 T What Can Be Done.

New York Sun.s
 "I suppose" said Mir. Fiatdwelier. that there are plenty of people living in flats who have signal system by which they communicate from the vestibule to the fiat itself, announcing their arrival, and some other points of information, as, for instance. whether they have visitors with them. "
 'sAIl there Is to this, you know. is that each member of the household has 2 ring of his own; say one has one short ring; another has one short and one long touch to the bell; and so on. while some gen. eral prearanged signal, added to the reg ular ring of any member of the house. hold means that a visitor is coming also Is now pretty common. But it had never occurred. to me that 1t might he greatly extended until one day when came into the vestibule of our house and found our other side the hall. standing there with an interested look on his face and appar- ently listening to something.
 The latch of the street door was click ing away with somebody upstairs press ing the button to let him in, but he didn't go in, he just stood there; and In a min ute, when the clicking stopped, he turned with a smile on his face to the letter box and began pressing the button under 1t.
 "A minute later the door began to click again, and he began to listen once more; and pretty soon he says, the clicking still going on, this as though he was talking to somebody:
 'tSho! Go way! You don't mean it."
 But very good-natured, you know: smiling all the time; and when the click ing stopped again he pressed the letter box button a couple of times and the door clicked couple of times and then he turned and went out.
 Well, all there was to that, you-know, was that our new tenant was a telegraph operator. and his pushing of the letter box button and the clicking of the door opener simply were he and his wife tel egraphing to one another over the bell wire and the docr opener wire. With the push button iD the vesttbule for one key, and the button in the flat working the door opener for sounders,- they could. talk as freely as two operators could talk over telegraph wire.
 "Of course, this you know made the old flat signalling system as followed by the rest of us, and which we had always thought was pretty good, look like child's work; and now everybody in our house Is studying Morse"

THE KEARNEY INQUIRED.
Hole Pierced in the Side of the Tran
 snort

Norfolk. Va. July 2.-The rescue of the transport Kearney, by the United States collier Leonidas Captain Linn of Bodies Island. last Sunday was an interesting in- cident of mid-ocean drama.
 Saturday one of the Kearney's propeller shafts broke and the loose fragments pierced a big hole in the vessels side. through which water rushed. Distress signals were hoisted. and Sunday morn ing the Leonidas by merest chance. sighted the disabled craft, which car ried several hundred troops and many wo- men passengers.
 A hawser was made fast to the trans ports bow and the collier towed her into Hampton Roads. where she now lies awaiting repairs at the Newport News ship yard. From information received here the hole in the side of the transport is of such a nature as to give the pumps all they can do to keep the vessel afioat. The troops and passengers have been landed.
 The trip was made with the tow fin four days and twenty-one hours.

Roosevelt snortens his Signature

Stress of business and the dearth of time will lead to a change in President Roosevelts signature. He has always been accustomed to write out his first name in full, but he finds that it will save him about 50 per cent. of time and trouble to make it simply T. Roosevelt. Where a man has to sign his name about ence. There is a man in the office of the Auditor for the Postofflce Department who. it is said. owes his appointment largely to the fact that his signature con- tains but five letters.

WHERE TIME STARTS.
Born in One of the Loneliest Parts
 of the Earth.
London Black and White

London Black and White.
 The hands of Father Time have gone round again, and all the world is making good resolutions. But how many of the millions who have been wishing their friends a happy New Year know how the New Year comes or where it comes from? The birthplace of Time, according to the system which makes Greenwich the cen ter point of a days journey is exactly where a needle driven through the earth at Greenwich would come out on the oth- CT side. It would startle the natives somewhere in the Pacific-if there were any natives to startls. which there are not. Time is born in one of the loneliest parts of the earth, among the dreary islands of the Pacific. There, while Lon don is lazily winding up the affairs of the old year. the New Year begins; and there, January 1, Father Time set out on his l9O2d journey around the earth. Big Ben at Westminster was striking r at noon on Tuesday when the New Year was born; the heart of the British Elm pire, throbbng with the life of six mill lions of people is always half day be- hind the unlnhabited Pacific.
 How Time Comes to Paris.
 Time has 12,500 miles to travel before it reaches London, and, as 1t cannot travel more than a thousand miles an hour, a day is twelve hours old when it comes to England. Fiji feels the glow of tho new time almost as soon as it begins, A few minutes after it has dawned on the world and received the coldest of well comes from the Friendly Islanders or the Kamchatkins. the New Year finds Fiji waiting for 1t with enthusiasm. and a few minutes later it reigns in New Zea- land.

The New Year,s Debut in England

The New Years Debut in England
 In four minutes more it is in England making 1t debut in the herring towns of the East Coast Lowestown and Tar mouth We're in 1902 six minutes before London had said good night to 1901 All Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex and Kent wei comed the New Year, while London was still in it's introspective and retrospective 1901 mood. Margate welcomed January 1 five minutes before Londons December 3l had passed; and Dover was five min utes ahead, Canterbury four and a half Maidenstone two, Eastbourne one and Gravesend one. It is one of the remark able incidents of our chronological ar rangement that while WOolWich is in the New Year Putney is still in the old; and II We could split up time more finely than In seconds we might be able to tell with eXactness the moment when Charing cross is in one year and the Bank in another.

 The New Year has completed exactly halt his round when he reaches London, to find London wide awake and staring hard at midnight. As St. Paurs booms 2 o'clock over the dark, still metropolis. announcing to six waiting millions that the New Year has come all the towns. cities and villages west of London are still waiting. Liverpool waits twelve minutes after London, Plymouth sixteen Bristol ten, Newcastle six Birmingham seven, Sheffield five and Penzance over twenty. For nearly half an hour two years have reigned this week in England. and it was possible for a man in 1901 to talk on the telephone to a man in 1902. The New Year had been speeding back to the Pacific for twelve minutes when it reached Edinburgh, and for seventeen minutes when it arrived in Glasgow. Ireland is much later still. Belfast being tWC Cnty-three and Dublin twent y-five min utes behind London.

PENFIELD ON BAILEY.

 ly Outbreak of Assinnity.


 Washington, July 2.-(Special.) )-Judgc Penfield. Solicitor of the State Depart ment, the official who figured in the col loquy between Senators Bailey and Bev- eridge Monday which colloquy resulted in personal encounter later, today gave out statement which 1t is feared may bring about some very unpleasant de- velopments.
 In this statement. Penfield charges that certain things said by Bailey on Monday were not true, and the Texan knew they were not true when he said them. He criticized Bailev's course in the Scott Beilenberg matter very severely and closes his statement with the following sentence: Senator Bailey Is one of those men who go hunting for trouble and this Is simply one of spasmodic dis plays of assininity in which he indulges at regular periods"
 Penfield is an old man. possibly 60 years of age Senator Bailey was in New York today and will not return until tomor- row.
