patching.

patching.
New York, Oct. Aft experiments
which are now being made with. new
device, known as the telegraphone,
succeed, another long step toward the
prevention of railroad accidents will
have been taken. The advantages
which the telegraphone affords In
train disatching have attracted the
serious attention of railroad officials,
and it is expected that before long
the new apparatus will be in use on
several of the big railroad systems.
1t has been found that the tele-
phone makes a permanent record OF
all train dispatching orders sent b..
the telegraph ticker or over the tele-
phone wire. The sound waves set
up by the ticker act upon the dia.
phragm of the transmitter attached to
the telegraphone and are thence
conveyed to thin steel wire. whore
they are electrically stored AS soon
as a record of the orders has been
made upon the wire, the train dis
patcher plaCc IS the receiver attached
to the telegraphone to his ear and Inl.
mediately hears the orders just as
they were given.
Records may be repeated as often
as desired, but as soon as there Is
no further need to keep them they
may be wiped out by passing a
strong magnet over the wire, thus
making 1t ready for use again.
In this way the possibility of err
ror in train dispatching orders will
be greatly reduced. There is no
need to trust to the memory, as the
orders are there upon the wire and
can be referred to at any time. The
records can be transferred for future
reference by connecting the receiver
of the machine in daily use with the
transmitter of large storage tele-
phone. CAould any mistake occur
the responsibility can Immediately be
located by reference to the records
on the storage machine, an indica-
tor showing on just what portion of
the wire any particular record has
been made. The record will give 30
perfect a reproduction of the dis
patcher's voice, even after months
have elapsed, that It can be at once
recognized.

by local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There Is only one
way TO cure Deafness. and that is by eonstitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining Of the
Eustachlan Tube. When this tube gets infamed
you have Tumbling sound or imperfect hear
Ing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness Is
the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which Is nothing but an intiamed condition OF
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot
be cured by Halls CatarFh Cure. Send for cir

the president Of the rebel government.
The town is full of rebels all the
time. They are getting their horses
shod and laying - provisions and ge--

to have no faith in peace unless ne
American government intervenes.
We ere holding back on our brick

however, that this will all be ended

informed me last night that it was
very likely they would commence to
burn property the first of next week

that they will give us plenty of time
TO get away and take all our personal
belongings with us and will conduct
us safely to Havana.
We have hung up ou~ bill of sale

co plantation and this has protected
it thus far, We did this to show that
it was the property of Americans.
