TELEPHONE FOR THE MuTEs
Curious Electrical Device That En-
ables Them to Communicate Rap
dIy at a Distance.

A curious electrical device called a
"deaf-mutes' telephone" has been in
vented to enable those who cannot
speak and hear to communicate rap
lily, not only with each other, but
with persons who can speak and
hear and are not conversant with the
finger-sign language, says the Popu-
lar Mechanics Magazine, in an illus
trated article.
'sThe phone" comprises an elec-
trical keyboard, somewhat like that
of typewriter. It has, like a type
writer, the universal system" ar
rangement Of letters. This keyboard
is connected by wire with an cleo
trio signal board which is the "talk-
ing machine" proper and consists of
thirty-six incandescent light globes,
each with large letter of the alpha
bet or one of the nine numerals
painted on the end of the bulb.
The person who wishes to talk
presses the keys, spelling out the
words as on typewriter, the other
person reading off the letters as they
fash on the lamps.

BEAR MADE THINGS LIVELY.

When the Norwegian steamships
Hercules, which arrived from the
Orient in Portland, Ore, the other
day, was riding out a storm in mid
ocean a big black Chinese bear be-
longing to the boatswain, who was
bringing it over to sell, tore down
the bars of the cage he occupied un-
der the poop deck and proceeded to
enliven things. One of the mates
ventured into the part OF the vessel
where the bear had been imprisoned
to ascertain the cause of the noise
he heard. AS he set back near the
cage the bear, standing on its
