THE PHoNoeRAPH.
It's Invention Was the Result of q
Cut on the Finger.


Cut on the Finger.
An Academia cut on the finger
caused Edison to invent the phone
graph, or talking machine.
Mr.. Edison told the story Of this
invention to a reporter At the time,
he said, he was singing into tele-
phone, and in the telephones mouth
piece he had placed. for safe keeping, a
fine steel point. Suddenly this point
cut his finger. He found, to his sur
prise, that it had been moving here and
there and roundabout guided by the
vibrations Of his voice.
He placed q strip Of yellow paper
under the steel point, replaced it in the
mouthpiece and said the alphabet. The
steel, while he spoke, ran over the pa
per, and for each letter Of the alphabet
it made a different mark or scratch.
This was what Mr.. Edison had hoped
for. He now held the steel point still
and drew the paper scratches slowly
over 1t. There was given forth, very
family, the alphabet as he had re-
peated it.
Thus the principle Of the photograph
the registering and the reproduction
Of the voices v1brations-was discov-
cred through the cutting Of a finger. 1t
was Edison's finger, though, that was
cut. Smiths or Browns might have
been quite hacked off and no phono-
graph would have resulted.

FOURTEEN PERISHED.
Terrible Holocaust In Crowded New
York Tenement House.


New York, September 5.-Fourteen
persons were killed and nearly score
injured in fire in five-story double
tenement in Attorney street at an
early hour in the morning. 1t was one
Of the worst fires in the loss of hui
man lives that has occurred on the
east side in several years, although
the property loss was slight.
The dead include four women, one
man and nine children, ranging in age
from three months to IL years.
The fire is supposed TO have been
caused by the explosion of lamp that
had been left to light the hall on the
second floor and the sleeping tenants
were not aroused until the hallway
was ablaze and escape through the
building cut off.

DROWNED IN LAKE ERIE.
Five Men Perish by capsizins of Their
Launch.

Cleveland, o., September 5-Five
men were drowned in Lake Erie at
night as the result of the capsizing Of
22-foot naphtha launch in which
they were en- route from Cleveland TO
Vermillion to attend yacht races at
the latter place.
When the boat was found it was
stripped of everything that could serve
as a buoy for the occupants and there
was hope that some of the party might
have remained afloat, but develop
ments indicate that all went down to
death. The body of Hartner was later
found on the beach.
