Yha Qianen,oloao.

This singular name is given by the inventor. Eduardo Torres Quevedo, Spaniard. to an apparatus intended to take the place of stenography in re- porting speeches. The apparatus, which consists simply of a series or little bells, requires the cooperation of eight or ten writers. Each writer takes a single phrase from the speak CTS mouth. At the tinkle of a bell on his left he begins to write what he hears. The bell on his right arrests him and sets his neighbor at work By the time the circuit IS made the first writer ls ready for another phrase
 Afterward the phrases. which are num- bered in their order of taking. are re- united to form the entire report. Tried recently at the Athenee. In Madrid. the ,lianemetogo gave satisfactory results
