"What l want, what we people want, is the simplest kind of telephone, some thing which n man can carry in his pockets and with it call up anyone, in aiy place. With such an apparatus people living on the sixth floor flat can communicate wirelessly with the other flats and with the janitor in the janitor in the basement.
 Imagine two steamers steaming through fog," continued M. Maiche. With my little apparatus the captains can tell at moment the direction the other ship is taking. In case of an aeci- dent to a submarine my apparatus would enable the crew in danger to com munieate with the conveying tug with out fearing the breaking of line, as in the ease of the telephone buoy. Min CTS tombed after disaster such as that at C0urrieres could communicate with the rescue party. The army corps mak- ing night attack could keep in con stant touch without fear of interrup- tion. The ordinary citizen could have it in his dining room and would no longer be dependent on the vagaries of the telephone exchange.

MORE CHA DAMAGE
The M. & P. Bridge Goes Out, Blocking
 Phoenix Traffic

Says the Arizona Republican: Where are you going, my pretty
 maidf'
 :" m going to Phoenix, kind sir" she
 said
 !" Like hell you are, ," said the man on
 the train,
 1.-The Gila bridge is out again ''
 The above touching little rhyme was handed to the Republican for publica- ton few years ago, was printed and was so impressive it was filed away on the tablets of memory for occasional use whenever the circumstances seemed to demand it. This is one of the times and it is hoped it will be the last time it's use will be required, for the rail road company is now engaged in the preliminaries for the construction of A bridge across the Gila that will resist the combined forces of nature and of man s ingenuity. But that avails noth- ing now.
 Early yesterday morning, not very long after the northbound train crossed it, two bents of the NJ. < P. bridge across the Gila were pulled out by the roots and foated of on the tide of rising flood. A little later in the day two more bents grown weary of well doing succumbed to the inevitable and slipped their moorings Superintendent Bicknell by that time had reached the scene of the trouble on special train and a large force of workmen are there ready to begin the work of reconstruc ton at the earliest possible moment.

DRAMATIsT AS CONNER
The Venus of Milo Being Used to Con.
 ceal Commercials

Torley, one of the three leaders of the Crystal Coiners gang, proves to be the son of an anarchist, the author of several plays, and an excellent all round musician.
 His arrest by the police was very cleverly managed. He used to frequent a cafe near the Porte de Vincennes, where he played the cello and became very popular. At this cafe he disposed of great quantities of the crystal coin, to friends of his, who came there for them after the Luxembourg gardens be- gan to be unsafe for the transactions.
 One day a new customer in the cafe looked at Torley narrowly, and remind ed him that they had been in school to- gether. The two made friends again on the strength of their school friend ship, and the newcomer became reg,i- lar visitor at the cafe. He was detect. i've, and after satisfying himself that Torley was passing bad money he ef. feeted the arrest
 Another of the men arrested, named Guilbou, was formerly president of an association called the Royalist Youth of the Latin Quarter. He always wore a feur de lis scarf pin, and once fought a duel with one of his comrades. NJ. de Montbrnn, who had dared to laugh at the Due D Orleans.
 It appears that match boxes were not the only reeeptaeles nsed by the gang in dispatehing the bogus coins to the provinces and abroad Some of the prisoners made hollow casts of famous statues-Dante and the Venus of Milo among others-whieh they filled with the spurious money and sent to their eonfederates.

HEADED IT OFF
Del Monte Will Entertain as Though
 Nothing Happened

While most people are looking for a scarcity of provisions for the next two weeks, and dearth of dainties which usually grace the festive board at this season, there is at least one place in the city where good cheer will reign SUI preme. This is the Del Monte, where one can at all times supply the wants of the inner man to one s complete sat isfaction.
 While Proprietor Banicevich takes no special credit to himself for his fore sight, he nevertheless feels a sort of general qualification in knowing that the floods have come and not found him unprepared to meet the emergency. The Del Monte makes it rule to keep on hand at all times goodly stock of the provisions used in catering to the wants of its patrons, but this year the supply far exceeded the ordinary. This is why Mir. Banicevich walks around with a smile on his countenance.
 A short time ago the Del Monte or dered an unusual supply of fresh eggs, poultry and creamery butter, and now has the same on hand, as well as a goodly supply of fresh vegetables, more than sufficient to tide over the shortage in these essentials to the table.
 Today the customary fine chicken din ner will be served and those who desire to partake of the sumptuous meal of which the Del Monte makes A special feature on Sundays will find on the tables all the delicacies to which they have been accustomed. It is unneces sary to enumerate the menu because it goes without saying that it embraces everything that can be desired.

Every Man His Own Telephone

Just one or two more improvements and the wireless telephone will be do nestle and commercial fact. This is the prediction, the promise indeed, of Mir. Louis Maiche, who since 1867 has been working at an apparatus that shall free the "hello" public from the vaga ries of the telephone central
 It is not alone as a scientific wonder. worker that M. Maiche hopes to enthuse the world. His main hope lies in giving the plain people comforting convent ence.
 NJ. Maiehe lives in the suburb of St. Germaine, and in his villa and in the gardens lying abont if he is conducting his experiments.
 "In 1893" said NJ. Maiche, 'T suc- ceeded in conducting conversation through wireless telephone at dis tanee of thirty yards. In 1895 l con ducted a conversation between Alaeeio, in Corsica, and Toulon, distance of 1855 miles. But that was more wireless telegraphy than wireless telephony, and that is not what l seek.

Dog That Drums Up Passengers

A hotel and liveryman in St. Charles, Ill., makes use of a dog for an odd pur- pose. It is II peculiarly marked coach dog, named Spot, and supposed to be known by all of the travelling men in the country.
 When q drummer wants to go to an interior town the hotel man drives for him and takes the dog along, When the town is reached Spot is allowed to roam the streets. Another drummer who wants to make the town where the dog belongs knows him as soon as he sets eyes on him and correctly surmises that the owner is in town with his rig, and will be going back. Forthwith he hunts up the dogs owner and engages him for the ride back to the railroad town. In this way the hotel and livery man has n passenger each way and. of course, doubles his money.
 Spot seems to know what is wanted of him, and he goes nosing around q town as if he was hunting customer for his master. Mir. Atwood, his owner says that he earns his board good many times over by finding passengers for the return trip.--Chicago Daily News.
