BY TELEGRAPH.
Device Enables Operator to Write at
Other End Of Wire.

New York, Dec. 23.-An invention
which is expected to rev~olutionize the
telegraph business and which has
been in operation ON the lines OF the
Western Union Telegraph company
for some weeks, was announced yes
terday by J. c. Barclay of that COM
pany. Mr.. Barclay is the inventor.
He claims for his invention that it
does away with the receiving opera
tor. At each end of the telegraph line
the instrument is attached to a stand
ard typewriter, and the message to be
transmitted is given to a stenogra-
pher. The stenographer sits at the
sending typewriter, and as he writes
the message is reproduced, letter for
letter, at the other end on the receiv-
ing typewriter.
So perfect is the machine that every
motion of the typewriter under con-
t-ol of the sender is duplicated by the
typewriter at the receiving station.
The spacing, the paragraphing and the
speed are the same. The most expert
typewriter cannot write too fast Tor
the receiver to take the message.
Mr.. Barclay has worked for i've
yea to perfect the machine. He said
yesterday:
"The mechanism of the instrument
is very simple, and it will not cost a
great deal to install it. We are not
going to put it in S throughout the
country Immediately. The machine
will only be used in the important cit
les where the volume of business is
large and time is valuable.
"The machine will be especially
beneficial to newspapers. Long stor
les sent from correspondents can be
received in the Offices written an6
ready for the editor. The mechan
ism will be installed in the newspaper
offices first"
Mr.. Barclay has been connectes
with the Western Union Telegraph
: company for 81 years. coming her
from Chicago. He has originate
many economic and time-saving 'ds
vices.

AN ALLEGED HoRsETHIEF.-
Rosebud County officers Unexpectedly
Capture Man Wanted.

From Saturdays Daily.
A few days ago Deputy Sheriff
Hough and another officer from Rose
bud county were in the city, en- route
to Lodge Grass, on the Crow reserva-
ton. They said they were looking
for a couple of men for whose arrest
they had warrants charging them with
stealing horses. Nothing further was
heard of them until this morning,
when the deputy who accompanied
Mr.. Hough arrived with a prisoner.
The man he had in charge was not
one of those for fhom they were look
ing. His arrest was the result OF an
accident. He was recognized az
Jack Burke, an escaped prisoner
from Dawson county.
Burke was apprehended some time
ago for appropriating a horse belong
ing to another man. He managed to
escape from the deputy who arrested
him and all trace of him was lost.
When the Rosebud officers arrived at
Lodge Grass they learned that the
men they were after had left and gone
to Wyoming, where the sheriff OF
Johnson county had them corralled al
some ranch. They saw Burke, how
ever, and recognized him as the mar
for whom the Dawson county sheriff
was looking. Accordingly he was ar
rested and one OF them concluded
to bring him back, while the Other
proceeded to where it was said theil
men were.

The Blue Gnu.

It would be hard to imagine a more
fantastic looking animal than the blue
gnu, which ranges in South Africa
from the Orange river north to Victo-
ria Nyanza. 1t suggests to one coming
unexpectedly upon it and seeing it for
the first time sort of impossible
dream creature, a cross perhaps be-
tween buffalo and a nightmare. To
the buffalo belong the neck and horns,
but the tail and the hind quarters are
those of horse. The legs are deer's
legs, but the head resembles that of no
other living animal. There seems to be
no doubt that the wild grotesqueness
Of the appearance Of the gnu is pro-
vision Of nature to protect the animal.
When frightened or disturbed these re
markable antelopes go through series
of strange evolutions and extraordina-
ry pastures In order to enhance as
much as possible the oddity and hid
eousness of their appearance and to
frighten away intruders.

MEMS HATS IN KOREA.
THE Reason They Are Wide trimmed,
High and Fragile

In lSscture on Korea, Burton Holmes,
speaking Of the mems hats, said:
Though Korea and especially Seoul
has many foreigners and the people
have become accustomed to strangers,
they adhere closely to their curious
costumes, the hat being the most i'm
pressive part of the garb. The Korean
gentleman never removes his hat in the
presence of company, either in the
house or outside. The hat must be
worn constantly during waking hours.
'"The hat consists of wide brim and
crown high enough to contain the
topknot. The hats are made of many
materials and vary in price from 81 to
$40. Their form dates back to a time,
centuries ago, when a king who was
fearful of plots and conspiracies de-
vised the head wear as a protection
against his noble enemies. If men
could not get their heads together, he
argued, they could not engage in
conspiracy, so he issued an edict COM
polling his courtiers to wear hats with
gigantic brims. Then in order to pre-
vent fighting on the street he ordered
that these hats be made of a thin
porcelain. In case of fight the hat
would certainly be broken. This would
necessitate explanations from the no.
bleman, and street rows were thereby
ended.
Though the hats are no longer made
Of porcelain, they are sufficiently frag-
lie to be broken if the wearers engage
In any violent demonstrations"

THE public have been somewhat
edited to read in a large number of
newspapers during the past week or
two that the notorious Jack Deitz, of
Sawyer county, is mo desperate"
And these papers go on to tell that
Deitz is poor man resisting the
demands of a souless corporation.
When newspapers will uphold such a
man as Deitz it is little wonder that
such strange things are happening in
Wisconsin. Deitz may, as is claimed,
have some title to the land upon
which the dam is located that is
causing so much trouble, and if such
is the case he has only to apply to
the courts to give him justice. That
is what courts are for, and that is
what courts are always doing. But

ANIMAL LANGUAGE.
Sounds and Gestures That Take the
Place of Speech

Place of Speech.
A sound or gesture made by an ami
NAL under any mental or emotional
Impression and calling out a similar
one in another animal is an element
Of language. When the rabbit quickly
beats the ground, it's fellow rabbits
know that there is danger somewhere,
and they take action accordingly. That
Is rabbit language. When the hunter
initiates the rabbit and thus conveys
the same ideas, he is speaking" the
rabbit language for the time being.
Many animals use signs, which Of
course are understood through the
eyes. The ants converse by touching
antenn9 and feet. Many insects rub
the elytra. This is animal language
In it's simplest form. 1t expresses but
few ideas. But there are animals
which are capable of modulating their
"voices"
Even the common rabbits. which
seem to be mute, are constantly max
ing sounds, which a little observation
will soon discover to be ever changing
In volume, meditation, etc. Much of
this method of communication changes
when the animal is brought into civ
ilization from the wild state. The wild
dog, for instance, banks very little
when in freedom. How the household
dog banks and is able to express him
self is we'll known.

An escaped convict was on trial be-
fore a French court, and the question
turned upon his identity with prison
er known to have been tattooed. There
was no appearance of colored marks
upon his arm, and the question submit
ted to M. Leroy, the medico-legal ex-
pert, was whether the man had ever
been tattooed. M. Leroy applied strong
friction to the skin of the mans arm.
This had the effect Of bringing out
white lines as cicatrices, with slight
blush tint. BY this means the word
Sophie" was plainly legible In white
marks on the Redeemed skin. This
proved the identity of the convict.
