Nine years ago there were 100000
telephones in use. That was the
year the Bell patents expired. To-
day there are 100000 instruments
purveying business and gossip, but
it is largely because there are so
many independent concerns. The
organization of the independent COM
panies has not, so it is said, caused
the business of the Bell company to
be any the less, but has caused it to
expand in proportions far beyond
what it was expected it would de-
velop. At the meeting of the tele-
phone companies of the country at
Cincinnati last week the above fig
ures were given out. There too, it
was predicted that in all probability
the next advance step which will be
made in telephone exchange con-
struction will be an automa tic
board that will do away with the
hello girl and will make it possible
for patrons to make direct eonnec-
tions with other peoples telephones.

CHAPTER III.


| feel as if had been spending the
day with emperors in their magnifi.
cent palaces, for we have been in the
Palatine with a guide saturated
with Roman history who told us
just the exact (?) spot where the
wolf was found, nursed Remus
and Romulous, and what we were
more sure was true, that we walked
through the very halls, and sat in
the very spot in the dining-room
and pronenaded in the very great
hall or throne room of the palace Of
the Caesars. This hill is the very
Oldest spot in Rome; Augustus was
born there and played about with
other patrician boys in his youth
and when he became emperor he
still lived there, and the people in
sisted on building him a palace
worthy of their ruler, and this build
ing which was the foundation stone
of the palace of the Caesars, in time
overran the whole hill, and is still in
shape to show us something Of the
magni6cence and the elegance of its
decorations. The floors ale partly
there, showing the mosaic patterns
very plainly, the work of disinter-
ring is still going on and the differ
ent walls show the different ages OF
construction. Titus and Vespasian,
in A. D., 20, began the palace in the
hollow of the Palatine, the successors
used those walls as a support for
their own, filling the chambers of the
earlier buildings entirely up with
earth so they were most solid. The
ruins which we visit now are for the
most part those of the palace OF
Domitian. We found many under.
ground passages connecting differ
entparts of the palace so that Their
hility could go from one part to an
other without the public seeing them.
We were in the dining room where,
historians tell us, Emperor Liberius
reclined at dinner, having on one
side of him his aged mother En-
press Livia, and on the other his
niece, Agrippina, great granddaugh-
ter OF the great Augustus. II was
in this room that Nero, while ban
quoting with the imperial family,
had cup of poison given to his
young step-brother who sank back
dead on his eouch,-his sisters An
tonia and Octavia, also seated at
the feast, not daring to give express
ion to the grief and horror oft.
Here, also, Marcia presented the
cup Of drugged wine to the wicked
Commodus, so you see what kind Of
things we had to swallow. Opening
out of this room was the Nymphw-

The largest incubator ever made is
tifty-one feet long and little over
four feet wide. 1t had fifty compart-
ments and in each of these there are
two trays, or one hundred trays all
told. Each tray holds at least sew
snty-fvreggs making the total incu-
batting capacity of this single ma
chine $500 eggs. 1t takes twenty
one days to hatch eggs, whether
they are placed under a hen or in an
incubator. Estimating that the
Matching season opens March 1, this
machine would handle $4,000 eggs,
and if so per cent of them Matched it
would mean $4,000 young stock.
However, the percentage of eggs
Matched will no doubt run much
higher than this, at least up to rs
per cent, which would mean 81, 500
young stock. A hen sits on from
twelve to fifteen eggs, so that giving
each hen the latter number of eggs
would mean that to equal the hatch
ing capacity of this one incubator
one would have to set no less than
$500 hens.

DlnsmOre Pockets His Pride and Devotion
to Duty and Comes Home to Canvass In
Madison and Washington Counties.

Congressman H. A. Dinsmore has
always maintained that he would
not leave his post of duty to make
campaign. In the present contest
1t seems that the force ofMr. Floyd's
following has had the effect of work
ing a change in the eongressman's
mind. He has written letters to
parties over the district, stating in
effect that the republicans have ar
ranged matters so he can leave con-
gress, by announcing that no more
legislation, except appropriation
bills, will be passed at this session,
and he will therefore return to the
district and meet his opponent. Mr..
Dinsmore no doubt feels very CRATE
full to his republican friends in con-
gress for their favorable action to-
ward him in the emergency. Mr..
Floyd though unaided by political
pull, and having no public buildings
nor garden seeds at his disposal for
distribution, is making a telling
fight against the willy congressman,
such as to give him alarm and cause
him to change his mind from what
it was in the beginning of the cam
paign when he said he intended to
remain at his post of duty in con-
gress and not make any canvass, as
his opponent would not amount to
anything in the race. We have al
ways had the highest regard for Mr..
Dinsmore and his ability as con-
gresham. But while this is the
case, we insist that Hon. ]. c. Floyd
is his equal on every part of the
ground, and that he ought to get
the nomination this time. Reports
from the western part of the district
as to his chances are most encour-
aging, and his friends must see to it
that his full strength in this section
is brought out YelviHe Echo.
