THAT 1T0NDEKFUL EDISON.

Perfecting the Phonograph Beyond Even the Dreams of the Caricaturists. rromUIns That It Shall Really Repeat it fn!l Opera. Xot to Speak or a 500-lajc.Nov.I. f New York World.l Yesterday morning a reporter of the World lled upon l'rofessor Kdison at his laboratory in Menlo Park. X. J. After greetings had been exchanged the reporter asked, "How is the phonograph to-day, Mr. Edison?" " 'Oh, about the same as usual," was the answer; "bat come and ask it. It has an answer for every man, and generally in his own words." The reporter followed Mr. Edison to an upper room where the phonograph was resting on a table, and as the cylinder 6lowly turned he Bhouted at it, pleasantly: "How are you?" Then the cylinder was shitted backwards and again turned, and the phonograph cried out in the same cheerful tone that the reporter had used: "How are yoa?" Mr. Kdison seated himself before his lavorite invention and talked, scolded s ang and whistled to it for a while, receiv ing answer3 according to his folly or his wisdom. After a few moments the professor threw himself back in his chair and gazed abstractedly before h'm. Then he said, "It is funnv, after all. You have to pucker up your mouth to whistle but the phonograph doesn't pucker one bit. Martin," he continued, calling to one of his workmen, "come here and sing bass for me." A double mouthpiece was placed over the diaphragm of the instrument, and while Professor Edison sang "John Brown' body" in a loud voice at one side Martin struggled at the other side with a bass so deep that the air-vibrations were about only three a minute. "You didn't sing loud enough." said the professor, as he shifted the cylinder. "Well, no," answered Martin; "I couldn't jest git the right chord. But we got it hunky' the other day." The crank was then turned, and the air of the song was sung by the phonograph with an occasional far off bass note struggling to be heard. Mr. Edison thought he could improve upon this rendering, and he again sang the song as a solo lo the same sheet of foil. When the cylinder was revolved this time the air barst forth with vigor, once or twice failing to connect wbe e a note had dragged in the second singmg of the tune. Mr. Edison now rested himself, Jand the reporter cast his eyes about the roo,u, at the ceiling and on tne floor. . Overhead was a net of telegraph wires resembling a huge spider's web, all terminating in a large bat terv placed in the center 01 tne room T T 11 Ik... aol asked the DO JUU use ail lucsc niico. reporter. ' b, yes," was the answer. "Why do you have that pipe organ that stands in the corner?" "To record sound." "What is that thing over there?" "A part of my aerophone." "What is that other thing that man is working on?" "An instrument tor reproducing Handwriting. I think it will be finished soon." "What is this circular plate?" "oh! that's for taking messages." The reporter now took a turn around the room. There were thousands of small and' large bottles containing chemicals, drugs and oil ranged ou shelves agsinst three of the walls. There was hydrolluosilicic acid, chloroform, ether, chloralhydrate, auinioniated tinctures of gum guaiac. iodide of potassium, kerosene oil, sulphuric acid and other things of widely different uses. "What is the idea of your keeping a wholesale drug store here, Mr. Edison?" asked the reporter. "Well," answered the professor, "I keep all of those things because I don't know how soon I may need them. Whenever I see a new chemical or drug announced I bay it, no matter what it costs. Now, here's something I prepared," and he handed the reporter a bottle , containing a clear, straw colt ored liquid. "That's composed of morphine, chloralhydrate, chloroform, nitrite of amyle, cassia and cloves. These things hive no hemical action on each other, and they'll stop any kind of pain immediately." During all this time the telegraphic receiver at the other end of the room had been clicking with messages that were passing over the wire. Suddenly there was a slight change in the click, and Mr. Kdison, although somewhat deaf. Instantly detecting the variation, ran to the instrument and took by ear a message intended for him. When he had read it he said: "By the way. l'rofesjor Bartlett, of the university of Pennsylvania, is going to deliver a lecture soon, and half of it id to be talked to the phonograph. Then I'll attach the instrument to the telephone and send the lecture to Philadelphia. I have just received a letter," he continued, "saying that the phonograph has been exhibited before the French academy, and that every one was delighted with it Mr, Hervey, the electrician, has sent me his congratulations." "Aren't you a good deal of a wizard, Mr. Edison?' aked the reporter. 'Oh, no," he answered, with one of his pleasant laughs, "I don't believe much in that sort of thing. I went to see Heller the other night. His tricks are very good and very smart, but I figured out all of them excepting one. The "second sight' is the thinnest of all. But come down stairs, and I'll show you the new model of the phonograph."The reporter followed Mr. Edison Into the work room, where about a dozen lathes and machines were in full operation. On one of the tables was the model. The improvement in the phonograph consists in a circular plate being substituted for the cylinder, and clockwork for the crank. ''This clock movement is a very important improvement," said Mr. Edison. uIt insures complete regularity and accuracy, and can be thrown out of and into gear instantaneously. We're going to start a publication office in New York when the phonograph is ready." "What do you intend to publish?" asked the reporter. , "Music, novels, general literature, and many other kinds of matter that are read by persons and reproduced by instruments or their vocal organs for the benefit of themselves and other persons. Take music to begin with. We will phonograph orchestral concerts by brass and string bands, instrumental and vocal solos and part-songs. The sheets bearing the sound impressions of this . music will be removed from the phonograph and multiplied to any extent by electrotyping, and persons can make selections of any compositions they desire. Then this music may be reproduced by any phonograph, with all the original sweetness and expression; and not only that, but the pitch can be raised or lowered by increasing or diminishing the speed of the phonograph." "What will such a sheet of music cost?" "About 2- cents." . "But how can you take an orchestra,wbea . it is necessary.in talking to the phonognph, to apply your mouth close, to the diaph- ' rasrmr , , The phonograph will be attached to a hole in one end of a barrel, and from the other nd will project a funnel like those used in ventilating steamships. This will receive the music from the entire orchestra, but of course not reproduce it with so great a volume. Piano music will be pbonographed by a booi being placed over the instrument, and the volume of the reproduction will be ' one-fourth that of the piano." "What method will be pursued with literary matter?" asked the reporter. "We calculate that an ordinary 50 cent novel can be got . on this," said iir. Edison,

tapping the circular plate, which was about six inches in diameter. "Novels and valuable literature will be read to the phonograph by elocutionists and persons understanding the subjects presented, and the matter will be multiplied by electrotyping in the same manner as music. You see, therefore, that you can have a phonograph in your parlor with an album of selected phonographic matter lying beside it. You can take a sheet from the album, place It on the phonograph, start the clock work and have a symphony performed. Then by changing the sheet you can listen to a chapter or two from a favorite novel, and this may be followed by a song, a duet or a quartet. At the close the young people may indulge in a waltz, in which all may join, for no one need be asked to play the dance music. You can easily see," continued the professor, "what an advantage the phonograph will be to the blind; and. indeed, I have already received one hundred orders from such persons." In some respects the phonograph will be a blessing to persons who are constitutionally tired," suggested the reporter. "Yes, and to Industrious persons, also," answered Mr. Edisoa. "You know a ru-tn can never judge of the value of his on words or exactly how to deliver them by hearing his own voice. Now, If a lawyer speaks an address to the phonograph in the

way he thinks it should De renuereu ana then has the instrument repeat it, he can i estimate very fairly what the eflect would be on a court and jury. Again, there are many men who can talk better than theycan write. They can, therefore, talk to the phonograph without the hin I.-ance necessarily caused by using a pen; they can stop when they please and wait lor ideas, and then they can let some one else copy the production 83 the phonograph repeats it. You see this opens up a vast Held, and one suggestion follows another. Now," continued Mr. Edison.with another of his happy laughs, "the lover, while waiting for his sweetheart to linish her toilet, can place on the phonograph a sheet of the pretty things she has said to him before, and so occupy himself for a time with her counterfeit presentment" "What will be the cost of a phonograph?" "About $100. The instrument will be finished in ail styles and handsomely decorated." "Cut how ' about the aerophone?" asked the reporter. "Oh, I haven't time to attend to that," replied Mr. Edison, "I'm so busy with the Fhonograph. The aerophone is very simple, t isn't like a calliope, which requires a keyboard and different notes. It has only one note, and the vibrations of that are formed into words by the escape of the steam." "What are all these things?" asked the reporter, for the first time discovering a show case filled with a litter of strange objects. Those are odds and ends," was the answer. "I haven t got to them yet" The reporter by this time had become convinced that if Mr. Edison had leisure he would find out the use of everything, however common: A primrose ly the river's brim A yellow primrose was to him, And it was something more. The reporter was about founding a question on this thought when he discovered that Mr. Edison had I disappeared. j "He has become offended," thought the reporter, "at being questioned so much and has gone away."- hut this was a mistake. I In a iew moments Mr. Edison returned, folj lowed by a man bearing a large tray. This f was placed on a table, and, the napkin being j removed, a bountiful lunch was discovered, t "Pitch in," said Mr. Kdison. The scientific inquiries here ended. Kanifii of Vehicle. All the Year Around. t Among the medley of names at present or j recently given to pleasure carriages, some I are unintelligible, while others defy all etyi mological scrutiny. The landau is named j from a rown in Germany; it is a coach that j may be used open or closed at pleasure. The landaulet, as its name implies, i.s a lighter and smaller landau. The barouche, a favorite open carriage in summer, is of Trench origin, as is the barouchet. The britz3chka was introduced froiu Russia about half a century ago. Why the phaeton is so named we can not pretend to say; but the vehicle so called belongs to the barouche and britzschka . group. The cibnolet is French; and so is the vis-a-vis. Droit zchka came from Russia or from Poland an odd kind of an affair, modified in England into a vehicle fitted for invalids, aged persons and children, with its formidable name shortened into drosky. The curricle is one of the few kinds of twowheelers with two horses abreost, while the tandem is a straggling affair with two wheels ! and two horses, but one of the horses behind the other. The cab (short for cabriolet) is a handy bachelor's vehicle; the gig is about the lightest of all, being little more than an open railed chair, supported on the shafts by two side springs; the dog cart is a gig, with a space underneath to contain either does or luggage, while the tillbury named after the coachmaker who invented it, is a modified cab; The stanhope, named after a noble lord, is another of the family of single horse two wheelers; and so is the sulky, for one person only; and so the buggy and the jaunting car and the whisky. The dennet, we are told,has three springs peculiarly arranged, and "was eo called because the three springs were named after the three Miss Dennets, whoso elegant stage dancing was much in vogue about the time this vehicle came into use." The French misanthrope, for one person, was probably the origin cf our sulky. The fly is a roomy carriage let out to hire; why it is so called is not quite clear. The French fiacre neither denotes a particular person nor a special origin; there Happened to be a figure of St. Fiacre in the front of the building where the first lender of these vehicles kept them. When we consider how readily the name hansom has come into use among us as the designation of a vehicle, we need not marvel at the French having adopted fiacre. Victoria, clarence, brougham are so many proofs of the ease with which the names of persons are given to new forms Ol carriages. Trained Housekeeper. It is absurd to neglect a girl's domestic education until she is ready to become a wife. The idea that a woman must learn to keep house by her own experience is both foolish and hurtful. Does a man put off learning a business till it is time to start for himself? Still, housekeeping must not be considered the Alpha and Omega of these duties. Deeper than this lie other qualities, quite aa indispensable and still- more necessary to a husband's, or even a wife's, happiness. . It would consume too much space to enumerate them all, but we may sum them up by saying that daughters should be taught to be womanly. For a truly womanly woman haa much the best chance of being loved by a truly worthy man. The ordination of nature has made a tender, affectionate, sympathizing woman more likely to attract strong, earnest, heroic men than one of a different stamp. Men lore by a fine instinct, which cenerally leads them right, that is, when they love in the pure sense of the term; and they would love oftener in that sense if women were true to that ideal womanhood which even the lost reverence and acknowledge. The best dower, therefore, a woman can give her daughter, is the dower of perfect womanliness, for a womanly woman can enter into her husband's weakness, adapt herself to his fancies and, by a pleasant fiction, at least,' adopt his tastes. . . The free church of Scotland is making an effort the raie a half million of dollars for church extension. It is proposed to divide the fund into two parts four fifths to be available for the erection of new churches, and the remaining fifth: to be devoted to the rebuilding and enlargement of existing churches. Toward this sum 22 gentlemen have already given $3,000 each.

Managing- Ma mm a. Harpers' Bozar.l . "Managinz mammas" is a phrase of satiric import applied to mothers who are presumed to be over anxious and unduly ambitious to make desirable matches for their daughters. It is employed so vaguelv and so indiscriminately as to have very little meaning and very little justice, but it always conveys, or is at least intended to convey, a degree of reproach. Hardly any woman with marriageable daughters, whether- one cr several, can escape the. imputation of being a manager. Not to be so labelled or libelled the words as used are nearly synonymous she must keep aloof from her daughter or daughters in Bociety, and wholly neglect the duty which she manifestly owes thero. Even then it is questionable if she will not be accused of doing more in a matrimonial way by appearing to do less; it is only a deeper art, it will be taid; it is some new ruse she is practicing to render more certain what she assumes to be indifferent to. Thus whether she manages or do s not manage, whether she likes management or detests it, she is by common report a manager all the same. Every mother of any fineness who has daughters is society is naturally sensitive to the sif picion to which she is aware she is incessantly liable. She matincitvely shrinks from it. While she knows she can no; shun it, and is therefore placed in a perpetually awkward and embarrassing position. By trying to avoid it, maiiy mothers go to the opposite extreme, surrendering such super vision and -direction ol their girls as are simply prudent and proper, and they often have occasion to rue their premeditated remissness.

The people who talk so much of managing mammas would seem to believe that the first obligation of a mother, when she has a marriageable daughter, is to remain in absolute ignorance of her daughter's masculine acquaintances and associates, to have do preference for men of character, refinement and reputation over meji frivolous, vulgar and dishonorable, and to be totally regardless of the kind of a husband she may elect. Should a mother fail to show interest in her girl's matrimonial prospects, should she permit her to be introduced to young men of soiled name or of no worth, she will be far more sharply criticised, and very deservedly, than she can be for any amount of the most -active and obvious management. She has ever to steer between Scylla and Chary b dis; if she avoids one, she is pretty certain to go to pieces on the other. She must choose between the. entire recklessness of her daughter's wedded happiness, and the name of an unflagging; contriver and manipulator in her connubial interest. If she be a true woman and a good mother, she will not hes'tate. Her girl's safety,- establishment in life and future contentment will prevail with her over any apprehension of scandalous or censorious tongues. To be a manager is, after all, an error to style it such in the right direction.Any mother had better be too careful than too careless, had better take her daugu ter'a peace and prosperity too much to heart untiring in producing a certain conjugal result than heedless in observing the drift of compromising circumstances. Managing mammas are generally accned of exerting their peculiar ability and inlluence in behalf of (expected) rich sons-in-law, irrespective of any otherconsideration. Were this true, many of the harsh things said of them might be extenuated, if not excused; but it is not true of any number of mothers, who are called managers when they are suspected of wanting any kind of son-in-law. Sj many men, especially very young, men, are allficted with conceit, 'coxcombry, or egotism, or all three together, that they are apt to imagine that mothers cherish designs upon them, when the mothers would cot annex them to the family on any account. Rebuked for their pretension or insolence, they comfort their wounded vanity by declaring that their treatment is due to their unwillingness to propose, as was evidently the maternal determination that they should. They are fond of closing their expressed grievance by asserting every man's uiau tw AitbAC,uau Lii.1 f cij u.on uuu right to choose his own mother-in-law, and their unshaken resolution not to be gooned into' matrimony by any woman alive. They seldom have any faith in their own averments, for they know far better than they could be persuaded to confess that as sons-in-law of any mamma, managing or otherwise, they would be supremely ineligible. Most of the talk and cheap satire about managing mammas is in this country downright impertinence. "Women who are really such, in the full and oflensive meaning ordinarily attached to the words, are not admirable nor always estimable, though something might be taid in their defense. But there are really very few of them. The majority irre coinage of the brain or creatures of cynicism. The men who imagine that mothers and their daughters are angling for them would be less unjust and less foolish if they knew that neither those mothers nor those daughters, supposing them to be addicted to mari to-piscatorial sports, could be induced . to lish in such shallow streams. Instead of too many managing mammas, in the loo??, 'merely satiric sense, we have not enough of them in the republic. American mothers, as a rule, are notoriously careless about their daughters' matrimonial prospects and possibilities. They need, in a rational way, to manage more than they have done or are likely to do in many vears to come. A C'hnrcti lnrrel. TSt. Louis Republican. A striking scene occurred on Sunday, just after the close of morning service in a church in the western part of the city. In the congregation was a well known business man, and as he passed along on the sidewalk a man with whom he had some difficulty on the day previous came up behind him and drew his arm back to strike. Two young ladies, still further in the rear, shrieked as they saw the motion, and the man in danger turned in time to avoid the blow. Then one of the young ladies sprang upon the would-bc assailant, - an utter stranger to her, and throw her arms around his neck to restrain him. At the same time a banker causht hold cf the man upon whom the assault was attempted to keep him from taking revenge. There was a struggle, each of the pinioned men seek ing to escape, until, hnally, the business man first mentioned came near enough to his assailant to hit him, and knocked him into the gutter. The latter attempted to draw a revolver, which was snatched irom him by his opponent's wife. At length peace was restored by on-lookers, and the parties separated, after enacting one of the most remarkable scenes on record In a church congregation. Walking Dmiie. ' . The verbal and practical protests that have so long been made by sensible women against the idiotic fashion of a "street dress" with a "train" which has to be held up has at last brought about a reform, and . probably every woman who can afford it will have in her summer wardrobe a kilt walking suit But it should be of bunting, wool grenadine, de beige or the thinnest cashmeres, for these kilt pleats take so much cloth tbat they are. said to be dangerously heavy. The costume consists of a kilt pleated shirt set on to a very deep yoke and tied &bout with a scarf. The waist is a cut away jacket and vest, and aa the Btyle is wholly a novel one the most satisfactory way in the end would be for everybody who desires one of these suits to purchase at once a paper pattern of the whole thing from Harper's or some other reliable establishment, and make a study of it from the beginning; for when such an abrupt change of fashion as this comes in it is almost always sure of a very long and flourishing reign. Those will be wisest, therefore, who adopt it immediately and learn the art of cutting one at once. The skirt must quite clear the ground everywhere, and must hang perfectly ev snail round.

Any riding up in front or dipping at the side is a horror. Since many ladies, however, are inclined to think the kilt walking suit only appropriate to first youth, there may be found In the Revue de la Mode for April, in "Outdoor Toilets Nos. 8 and 9,M the most charming design for this purpose possible. The underskirt is laid in deep kilt 'pleats. The overdress is a tunic, partly opened, then turned up and draped back washerwoman fashion. The basque is extremely long, perfectly plain, and finished with a deep triple collar and with little pockets. This costume is elegance and grace itself. Percales, ginghams and muslins will be made with yoke and pleated basque beneath. A belt will be worn with them, and very often the basque will be left very short and the skirt fastened over it, and thus the old fashioned round waist, so long "lost to sight though to memory dear," will be brougnt back again.

Tiles. This system of decoration is not a new one, but rather the revival of. a very old method, for in the old Elizabethan houses of England, which aproach nearly to perfection in regard to architectural embellishment, such plaster work is profusely used. And in the Moorish ornamentation in the Al ham bra are seen, in the patterns which surround the walls, prototypes ol these same wall tiles, which in this case aro richly enameled crosses of five flowers. These designs may be made to fit into each other, and thus form a diaper pattern; or they may be cast of a single design, square in form (as just described) and repeat t'.io same pattern; or two or more may alternate over the fpace adorned. After arranging the design the casts are made, as previously explained; out as a certain amount of undercutting will generally be necessary, and as several, perhaps a large number, will be required, it will be requisite after casting the first tile to use gelatine moulds, made by boiling glue with rather more than its own with gold and color. To make these tiles first arrange round or square designs, with leaves, flowers, etc., formed into conventional patterns, as three large rose, ivy or convolvulus leaves fitted in each corner, with straight stems, meeting in the center, and united by a circular tiower; then three -similar leaves united, fitting in between these corner ones; or long single leaves of narrow form may extend from each corner, with four small ones on the sides, all united in the center with a conspicuous five or six petaled Hower, and a similar flower on each of the smaller leaves, thus forming a bulk of water, and pouring it over the plaster model while warm. When cold, it will form a tougb, jelly like mass, and may be pulled without injury from the model. Its elasticity enables those projecting parts which lit into the cavities, made by under cutting, to slip over these high parts and immediately assume the original form. By pouring plaster, into moulds thus formed any number of tiles resembling the original one niHV be made.

The best thing possible for a man to do whsn he feels too weak to carry anything through is to go to bed and sleep as long as he can. This is the only recuperation of brain power, the only actual recuperation of bra.n force; because during sleeping the bra n is in a state of rest, in a condition to rective and appropriate particles of nutrirueit from the blood, which take the place of those which have been consumed by previots labor, since the very act of thinking bums up solid particles of nutriment, as every turn of the wheel or screw of the steamer is the result of consumption by fire of the fuel in the furnace. The supply of co'fcumed brain substance can only be had froa the nutritive particles in the blood wlroh were obtained from the food eaten previously, and the brain is so constituted that it can best receive and appropriate to itself those nutritive particles during the stat of rest, of quiet and stillness of sleep. Mer? stimulants supply nothing in themi brain, force it to a its substance, until greater consumption of it is so exhausted thst there is not power eno.igh left to receive the supply. Tie recently organized "Church Society for Promoting Christianity Among the Jews" in this city and throughout the land, witi Bishop Totter at its head, has issued an earrfst appeal to churchmen for sympathy and support. It has hope of success because of what has been done in the past. In 1800, when the London society for promoting Chrktianity among the Jews was founded.it is said that the most diligent search could only discover 35 Christian Hebrews in the whoie of England. Since then more than 20,0(0 have embraced the faith and been baptized. As a rule, with but rare exception!, they have been intelligent, respectable and earnest. They are to be found in all the irofessions, all departments of learning, comuerce and industry, leading exemplary lives More than 100 have been ordained clergy of the Anglican church, many of whou have risen' to prominence, four becoming bishops the late llishop Auer, of Cape Talmas; Bishop Alexander, predecessor of Bishop Gubst at Jerusalem: the pres ent 1 ml bisbop ot Huron and Bishop Scher-. cscbtwsky, of Shanghai.
