Increases in Salaries Are Recon,
 mended for Several

Employes of the board of public works fared pretty well in their peti tons for increases in salary, when the salary committee of the common council met last night. A stenograph CT was advanced, s200 a year. because in the mind of the chairman of the public works board she merited an in crease for her efficent work. One other woman was favored with a rec ommendation, that her salary be in- creased from s520 to s1,000 a year The position for which she is paid the s52o is only a part time affair. Un- der the new scale, the woman will be required to work full tme.
 Councilman Burton c. Mercy, pre- sided at last nights meeting. Other members of the committee in atten- dance were Councilmen Otto Schmarr, Michael F. King, Clifford Hellberg, c. Adrian Carlson ad A. G. Crusberg.
 Grove Does Praistng.
 Chairman Thomas w. Grove of the board of public works appeared before the committee and urged that Miss Florence Caufield, stenographer in the department office, be granted an in- crease from $1,0oo to s1,20o a year.
 According to Councilman Carlson many girls are not receiving s1.o00 a years in other offices. The salary committee voted to recommend the increase petitioned for by Miss Cau- field. Mir. Grove also spoke favorably for an increase of s200 year for Clifford Faulkner and J. L. Conley. The committee voted to recommend the increase to the common council
 One Clerk Turned Down.
 A discussion was held in regard to the petitions for increase of Miss May Suffer and Miss Dorothy Loomis. of the tax collectors office force. In the case of Miss Loomis it was explained she has been filling temporary berth at salary of S520. Under the rec ommendation for an increase to $1,- 900 there is the provision providing full time service. The application of Miss Stauffer, for an increase from s1,300 to $1,s00 was rejected, on motion by Councilman King.

months later, where men of science the world over who had come to eX- anime and study the numerous inven- tions exhibited. saw Prof. Bell give a practical demonstration of the trans mission of the human voice by cleo tricity. ...
 Starts For Philadelphia
 AS for Bell himself, he had not planned to attend the centennial at all He was poor and he had re-or- ganized his classes in vocal speech Toward the end of June he went to the station to see Miss Hubbard off for Philadelphia. There had been some talk of his going, but he had was going; when they reached the station she pleaded with him and was refused. AS he put her aboard the train and it moved out, leaving him on the platform, she burst out cry ing. Bell dashed after her and sprang aboard the train, without baggage, ticket or any other trifles.
 Success at Last
 The next Sunday afternoon. Bell was promised an inspection of his in- vention by the judges of exhibits. It seen a great deal. Some of them were for going home; one jeered, and there was a general boredom. Then there appeared the blonde headed em- peror of Brazil, with outstretched hands. He had heard some of Bells lectures on Boston; the deaf mute work appealed to him. His greeting made stir Bell made ready for his demonstration. A wire had been strung the length of the room. Bell took the transmitter; Dom Pedro placed the receiver to his ear. He started up amamzed:

 He nodded his head solemnly as he got up.

 The judges took turns talking and llsleHlHS uHtll lp ludt Hlent' Neht the telephone was brought | to the judges pavilion. It was mob- bed by scientists the remainder of the , summer.
 Given Many Honors
 The distinguished inventor was the recipient of many honors in this coun- try and abroad. The French govern ment, ever quick to recognize science, conferred on him the decoration of the Legion of Honor. the Preach Academy bestowed on him its valuable Volta prize of 5o,o0o francs, the So-

ciety of Arts of London In 19o2 gave him It's Albert medal and the univers- ity of Wurzburg, Bavaria, made hin, a Ph. D,
 One of the curious things about the invention of the telephone is that Bell knew almost nothing about electric ity when he started. He knew a great deal about acoustics. though, and the formation of the human organs of speech and hearing, Bell was called to Washington once when he was in the slough of despond and took the opportunity to call on Prof Joseph Henry, who knew as much about cleo trictty and the telegraph as any man then alive. Henry told him he had the germ of great invention,
 But" said Bell, T have not got the electrical knowledge that is nee essary."
 Get 1t" said Henry
 Bell did get some of it--enough.
 Had known more about cleo tricity and less about sound" he said, T would never have invented the tele- phone"
 Other Inventions.
 While pr. Bell will be best remem- bered as the inventor Of the telephone, q claim that has been sustained through many legal contests he also became noted for othed inventions. He vas joint inventor of the grapha- phone with Sumner Taintor. He in- vented an ingenious method of lth- oeraphy, a photophone, and an in auction balance. He invented a tele- phone probe which he used to locate the bullet that killed President Gar eeld. He spent IS years and over s1oo.o0o in testing his famous tetra- hedral kite. and established a prin- ciple in architecture, the use of tetra- hedral cells or units
 Gave S25O.OOO For Deaf
 Throughout his life, Dr, Bell main- taned his interest and lahors for deaf mutes. He founded became president and contributed $25o,ooo 10 the Amer ican Association to Promote Teach ing of Speech to the Deaf. He was of many of the leading Amer ican learned societies.
 Laboratories at Cape Breton
 Dr. Bells laboratories have been located since 1SS6 near Baddeck, Cape Breton. There for many years he conducted research and experiment in aerial locomotion and other scientific subjects and maintained his private museum showing the development of his greatest inventions He encour- aged Samuel P. Langley to invent the first flying machine and declared after it's flight at Quantico, Va, in 1896, that the age of the airplane was at hand, although Langley's ma chine was destroyed
 Dr. Bell formed in 1907 the Aerial association with head quarters in Cape Breton and its ob- feet to learn to fly. It is claimed that 1t was with the machines developed oy that association that the first real y successful public flights of air planes in America were made.
