SIMPLIFIED WORDS
Spelling Board Which Roosevelt Once Upheld to Issue a
 New List.
MOVEMENT IS GROWING
some of inc Strange Looking Words Arc "Camfor," "Eg," "Forcu"
 and "Siy."

Tho simplfed spelling board 1t was learned today, has a new list of words which it will soon submit to the pub lie.
 IL is said that the new list will be as radical in lis nature as the assort- ment issued last January, which con- taincd such spelling as "camror," leg" loren" and "siv,"
 Since last July the board has been preparing the new list of words. with their undesirable letters or syllabIes blue-penciled, but inasmuch as it is the acknowledged policy of the spelling reformers to 'go slow,' in such mat ters they have boon in no hurry to make known their conclusions
 The executive commttce which does the actual work of revision has com. pleted the list and will present it next week for the boards approval says the Evening Post Al the office of the Sim plifed Spelling board 1t has been ad- mitted that more reforms are coming, but as to details no information was forthcoming. This statement however, was given out
 Pursuing the same policy of former years, the board and council have had prepared an additional list simplifed according to the principals and accept- cd rules and ana Iogies of English spelling The changes so far recom-

FUTURE OF THE TELEGRAPH,
It VIII be More Generally Used for
 Correspondence.

The telegraph Is in the hands of a practical monopoly, where t will con tinue until its supremacy is challenged by a formidable rival operating in au- tomatc system at a uniformly low rate
 Such rival Is now preparing to en- ter the field It Is called the Telepost and 1t operates an ingenious system which enables it to send one thousand words a minute over a wire of any length and al cost of 2j cents for 90 words where the dispatch at the point of destination Is delivered at the post office l have seen its practlcabiity thoroughly tested and regard it as the telegraph of the future,
 1T one of the benefits of a postal telegraph be uniform rate of 25 cents for letter of moderate length then government, to accomplish this purpose must use a rapid automatic system and of these the Telepost Is superior to any now in use or, go far as l know, suggested This is my reason for re- ferring to it the telegraph of the fu- ture. If the government can find a better system 1 should favor If.
 I have no preference for any system; what l desire Is prompt service and moderate charges The Telepost, how eyer. has not been offered to the gov crnment nor is it likely to be- From what I know of tho company there would be mode money in its indcpend- ent operation than in any sum the gov crnment might pay for it.-Hon Will liam | Cary, M C., In November Gov ernment.

mended were made according to the principles of English spelling, and that is 10 be the policy of the board throughout.
 The third list aims tO remove cer- tain anomalies and Irregularities, espe- cIaIly those which never were part Of the language. but were mere per versions of ill-educated printers, such as the b' in doubt and debt. or the 's' in island, The now simplIncatlons are of the same character as their predc- cessors, they will be no more start Ing"
 When the list Is published, the board may Issue one long alphabetical list Of supplied words SO that those who arc not well yersed in thc new forms, but who want to he, need only consult the primer and find out what to do,
 Such book has become necessary because of the large numbers of words the board has seen nt to alter 1t Is expected to he of use in schools and colleges, where slmplnod forms are taught
 Every day brings fresh accession to tho number of persons who sign the cards agreeing to use the spelIings re- commended by the Supplied board, say it's officers Every one who signs a card receives the publications of the board, and can obtain, if he desires, ad- ditional copies for distribution and many become. it is said active modi- ums of Influence,
 Beside teachers, scholars and profess sional mon generally, the board appeals also to the business world, and many thousand business men and firms are using smpllfed spelling in their cir culars and advertisements, often to a degree far beyond what the board has thus far recommended,
 Any one who will read magazine ad- advertisements. the circulars and "hooklets' of real estate men. of brok- CTS, and "hoOmcrs" of western and southern towns. will find the simplifed spollings cropping up in every direo- ] ton, This Ia even more common in the south than in the west If seems tc have started partly as an Interesting variation from monotony, but 1t is Fept up as q good thing in itself, Al least that Is the view of members oi the board,
 The board has q list of more thar three hundred newspapers and other periodicals which use simplihed spell ings in some degree, and 1t is said that the movement for simplhcatlon shows remarkable strength in the state uni versailles and normal schools Of the Middle West. In some institution, nearly all members of tho faculty have signed the card agreeing to use the simpler spellings, Some Of these in stitutions have adopted the simpler spellngs in their official publications That is the case, for example with the Illinois State Normal University al Normal Dr. Felmley president, the Iowa state Normal School Cedar Falls Dr. Seerley president. and tho Cobra do state Normal school at Greedy Dr | snyder president,

AS TO THAT WORD "FRAzHLE."

President Roosevelt may be exoner- atcd from direct responsibility for the storm of discussion which has follow- cd his use of the good old word "fraz- gle" in his last ante election forecast. It slipped from his tongue, or his pen. as it might from the tongue or pen of any well-bred and versatile handler of English. If Is common Word-as common as "wudgett' or "gormy" or any of dozens of other words which purists forbid and others use habitu- ally. What says the eminent littera- teur Horace Worcestershire. in his comment on an event of English hs- tory:
 And the Roundheads, at this sudden turn of their affairs, were sorely put about They saw the wool of their cause worn thin by too great ravelng of desires, and the fabric of their hopes became frazzled like the edge of an old tapestry.
 Or we may point to the epic on the fall of Castle Dunlelcester in 1888, in which the scholarly Owen Bartho ma kPS USE bI Illf N'l'I lll NliSN NFll- remembered lines;
 And now the light fell slantng from
 a sky of lurid fear
 A light that 'lumined armor, and
 made dazzle
 Each armorial accoutrement and be-
 trayed dread faces sere,
 And shone on hopeless battlements
 grown frazzle.
 Quotations of this convincing sort might be multiplied to an extent which would become tiresome, and they would show that, while the use of the word Is now regarded as modern ism, it is in fact, like most colloqual- isms, but a reversion to older uses, Theodore Roosevelt is a deep reader. He Is familiar with the old masters of 1 literature He need not he asked tO explain his use of "rrazzle, ,"-- Boston l Advertiser,

NEW RIFLE
Demonstration by Inventor Maxim at Hotel Heublein
 in Hartford.
SEEMS TO WORK PERFECTLY
Technology Club Could Hear Scarcely Sound as Big Rifles
 Went on.

Hartford Nov. 2a.-The numerous guests of the tteublein last evening were startled D! the report of rife fired in the basement of the hotel, which shook the whole building, when Inventor IT, ?. Maxim entertained In the big rathskeller by the Technology club of Hartford, was giving an exhibition of his rife silencer Of course the sl- lenCer was not attached to the big Aus trian rifle which resounded throughout the hotel.
 Mir Maxim had rifles of nearly all the countries of Europe the new Springfield rifle, which looked like a sporting gun compared with the for midable guns of Mexico and South America Besides the arm! rifles Mir. Maxim exhibited sporting and toy rifles equipped with the slencer, and fired these guns many times There was no report. the only audible sounds being tho click of the hammer and the noise of the bullet as it hit the box or sand prepared to catch and hold it.
 Il Is really marvellous after hearing the tremendous report of rife fired in a comparatively small room, to sea 1t fired immediately after the silencer is attached and not hear It. The at tachment. the muff,or or silencer, seems | to be a very simple attachment, and i is a working ont of the principle of mUffier az applied to automobiles ! Mr. Maxim said last evening that he i had not determined as yet the limit of the size of gun to which it may be successfully applied, but that he did l not see any reason why t could not be used on the big thirteen inch guns used In the navy and on our coast de- fences. Many countries are already in- tereSted in the new attachment, and the proper officials of each army will be given an opportunity to test the i sllencer Such an exhibition has been hald at the Springfield armorF, but the officers there have not given any report on the subect.
 One curious test has heen made. rifle which when fired without the mut- fer or slcncer, could be heard for a distance of six miles, with the silencer attached fl could not be heard at first at distance of 800 feet AS the ofl- clals came nearer they heard the click of the hammer and the screech of the bullet. Then by repeated firing if wI, found that they could hear the bullets at distance of some 800 feet.
 Mir. Maxim expects to sail for Flu rope on December 15 where he has en- agreements to exhibit his invention be- fore Inc armory officers of the armies of several countries
