Can Use 'Phone-~Aay Old Way

A st Louis sprcial to the New

Two Young women OF the st.
Louis fashionable set discovered
last night by accident that it was
not necessary to place tbs lips near
the transmitter Of a telephone to
be heard mt the other end OF the
wire, providing the transmitter be
placed firmly against the chest and
one talks in a natural tone; and
this is not mental telephathY."
Following the making public OF
tie story of their discovery in the
last edition of a morning newspa.
per, the whole city yesterday be-
gan experimenting to test the state
ment, and the exchange here spent
Il g busiest twelve hours in its his
tory. Indeed, in the afternoon
many extra operators were put on
to meet the rush.
Experiments developed the fact
that conversation eau be carried on
with the transmitter placed on any
part of the BODY, even the top of
the head or on the knee.
Among the advantages of the
new system, which, in addition to
knocking away all stereotYed rules
as to how to talk contained in the
telephone books, are that it is germ
proof and non-fatiguing, sirce the
transmitter NAV be switched from
place to place in conversiDg with

So They Took the Woman From Her

execution was not sent to the high
sheriff, and she remained In prison
for about three years, acting as jail
washerwoman and occasionally, as a
favor in acknowledgment Of her good
behavior, going out, as was then the
custom, as wasberwoman to private
houses. But clerk looking through
the home Office records found the war
rant that had never been dispatched,
and it was thereupon promptly for
warded to the sheriff for due process.
The woman was found by the turn
key at the washtub In house in the
town = Aylesbury. "Well, missus,"
said he, "you are to be hanged. The
warrant has come at last, and we must
carry the sentence out tomorrow morn

piled, II suppose must &c" and, hav.

Our attention has been called to
u mistake appearing in The Times

the tannery at this place shutting
down in short while. The fact
Of the matter is this. A consign-
ment of oil used in tanning pro
cess failed to arrive and the scrub
room was shut down few days
throwing a number of men tempo
rarily out Of employment. Since
the arrival of the oil all the men
have gone back to work. None OF
the employees have been laid off and
there ia no prospect Of any OF
them being laid off. On the con-
trary, eighteen new men were en-
ployed on this week. In converse
ton with one Of the men in au
thority at the tannery he informed
us there were enough hides on
hands to run the tannerY full force
until February and more were be-
ing received daily. After tannery
once starts to shut down, it takes
at least elk months. to finish up
what work they have on hands
There ia no danger Of the men at
the tannery here being thrown out
of employment for several months
to come.

THE ELECTRIC CRATER.
How the Arc Light Is Produced Be-
tween the Electrodes.

How the Arc Light Is Produced Be-
tween the Electrodes.
Everybody knows that an arc light
Is formed by causing an electric cur
rent to pass between the points OF two
carbon rods. One Of these is called
the positive and the other the mega
tive electrode, and the current passes
from the former to the latter. Parti-
cles of carbon are carried on from the
positive electrode until its end be-
comes cup shaped.
To the little cup thus formed the
name of crater is applied, and from
this crater four-hfths Of the light Is
emitted. The negative electrode does
not become SO hot as the other. Be-
tween the two little cloud Of vapor-
lied carbon is formed, rising from the
crater, and this vapor gives forth a
golden yellow light. But it is over
powered by the light Of the crater IT.
SELF which has violet tinge due to the
incandescence Of solid particles of car
bon. The arc of light extended from
one electrode to the other also has an
axis Of violet color which is Its most
brilliant part. The fact that most Of
the luminosity comes from the crater
explains the reason why the light does
not appear equal in all directions. 1t
Is brightest from that point Of view
which shows the largest portion Of the
crater.
An interesting effect is often noticed
when flies or other insects futter about
an arc light. Their shadows cast on
neighboring wall appear gigantic. The
reason Is that the light Of the crater
is concentrated in point smaller than
the bodies of the insects and the bound
aries Of the shadows consequently
widen with increase Of distance.-St
Louis Republic.
