What Has Been Done by Improve

But IL the automatic telephone excites
grateful wonder. another recent inven-

regarded as a marvel OF marvels. Tha.
machine may consist either OF steel
wire wound on a revolving drum. or a
hard steel disk revolving in horizontal
plane. Adore the revolving wire. or
disk is placed a small electromagnet &C
tuated BY the telephone circuit. All the
varying impulses that come over tho
telephone wire under the influence OF
the speakers voice are impaired by the
little magnet to the steel moving be-

surface a series Of magnetic impressions.

JOHN TRUMAN ALLING.

Friends and relatives of John Tru- man Alling, of 2O3 Spring street, were greatly shocked by his sudden death from apoplexy Tuesday, as mentioned in this paper yesterday.
 MT. filling was a son of the late Tru- man filling, 8 well known and respect ed New Haven citizen. For many years he was 8 prominent builder in New Haven, which business he followed un- til about ten years ago, and while he had passed his threescore and ten, and more, he was still apparently vigorous and in full possession of his mental powers.
 Of near relatives still living are his brother, Francis A. filling, the we'll known coal merchant; a sister Mrs, J. A. Partric, and an only daughter, Mrs. S. Ralph Hull.
 MT Alling leaves a record of such kindliness and affection, both as to rel atives and friends, that no unpleasant memory of word or deed will be recall ed, but only memory of uniform affec- ton and kindness.
