seed to detormtne Um kwallty of Um bnbet the Prsildent'i bostyi Prof. Bell's new Induction babtnes con Usto of two BateolU about four Inches in Aiameter sad one-half lacu In thickness of htouJated eopper win, a battery, a eonisnif r, an interrupter or oircult breaker, ind a tolephoae. The) sads of ths primary sr Inducing ooll are conneetod with Um poles sf thebattsrr, and la ths tame circuit are the sondenser and a small Intorrunter, whose rlbratlng tongue opens and closes the circuit with great rapidity. The ends of Um teooadary coll in which the current Is to he induced are carried to ths binding posts of UM Beli Telephone, When Um connections have all thus been made, a secondary soil is laid on the primary or secondary ooll, and their respective circumferences exactly ooacide. The circuit breaker hi then set In Motion and rapidly interrupted. The eirsult through ths primary ooH induces another current ot higher tatenelty In the secondary ooll, and as ft does o a loud musical tone is heard in Um telephone with which the secondary coil ht connected. Aa long m the current is maintained and Um oircuniferoaeo ef the two coils is kept in exact coincidence the musical note in then telephone does not i-hanKC its pitch or intendty. If, however, the experimenter sltdes the upper coil along an Inch or so upon the lower, so Umt their ctrcumfereucea no longer correspond, the intensity of the musical toss is diminished, and Just In proportion, as the centers of Um Bat col is are separated by the arrester or less distance the intensity of the musical tone is tossened or increased. By delicate maninulatlon It it poasfbte to adjust the cantors of the overlapping coin) at such a distance one from the other Umt a perfect balance is brought about . and when this t Uw mm the Me phone makes no sound whatever. As soon as tb balanced ooili begin to feel ths disturbance caused by their approach to the imbedded bullet the telephone announces the fact by a faint, eont Inuous , musical note, and this note grow louder and louder, until the overlapping parts of the coils are direct, hr above the disturbing metal, wbea tha sound reaches Its maximum. A Thrilling Ar entire a Beef. WttKem Stonestreet, a twelve-year-old sen of Mr. James Stonestreet, had a narrow escape from a sudden and terrible death yesterday. The boy aay he was throwing a base-ball, when the balUodged In the gut ter at the top of the bouse, He immediate ly started np to get it, going out on the roof through a hatchway. The bouse has three stories and an attic; tha roof is rather steep, and as the boy slowly edged over toward the gutter he felt a sinking at the heart. His little sister was standing In the yard eyeing her brother and calling out to him every Instant to eome down, lie made some boatru! answer and eonUnued his dMgerdU8urney. He rr sched the edge of the roof, caught a Arm hold of pome pro jecting shingle, ami, leaning over, seised thubsli. Before he could arise from his stooping position he felt the shingles to which be was clinging giving Way with Mm.

The gutter wa an ordinary tin agatr. not very strong; nor whs It bound to the roof very tbrbily. The sudilen weight of the boy made the tin adown. and a few of the fastenings gave -way, leaving the tioy hanging down the ativna, with onlrabrnkeh, mtten piece of Un between bitn and etrrnily. William was now thoroughly arouel to his danger and cried out for hsht. Hi SMtcr ran into the bouse, and happening to no aeoiomt man titere told Mm of her brother's dsmrcr. The man ran out aud getting a long ladder which was lying in the yard put it up against the side of the houM. The boy was now sltttost ex haunted. The perspiration was running down his face in stream. His eyes were dilated with terror and exhaustion, and It seemed tmolble for him to hold on till the assistance came. The colored man ran up the ladder nimbly. Scarcely had be reached the top when the hoy, who could hold on no longer, dropped into hh srm. l he eo(re(l man took him down, and when the boy reached the ground he feinted. He was taken into, the home and physicians were summoned. Ut Might he was still loenWe, hnd It la, net known hew serious hi nervou Injnries may prove. Ummlti (A ) CemnssrnW. Ab Kxehnnge ef Itoehels.

Middie was a gentle man of social habits, fond of making new aoquafttUttce and not Indifferent to seeing everything there was to be seen In Denver, and he forgot all about mining and ether business and devoted Himself to having a good time.
