TWO NEWSPAPERS,

In which all Advertisements appear for ORE GKARGX

THE PRODIGY OF MEN LO PARK. Menk Park is a small station on the Pennsylvania Railroad in New Jersey, about an boar's ride from STew York. It ia a mere hamlet of half a dozen bouses and would be altogether insignificant were it not for the fact that Thomas A. Edison resides there. This fact, however, i9 alone sufficient to attract to tbe place scores and hundreds of carious visitors.

Undoubtedly Edison is a prodigy in Invention, just as Mozart was in music, and Napoleon in war. He has, probably, a greater genius for invention than any man that has ever lived. The origin of his genius is as little known as tbe origin of genius usually is. His parents were average people of the humbler class. None of tbe members of his family, so far as is known, displayed unusual talents of any kind. His father •was in Jturn a tailor, a nurseryman, dealer in grain, in lumber and in lands. His mother was fairly educated and gave bor son pretty much all tbe education be ever had, two months covering tbe entire period of his regular schooling. He bad a passion for reading, how over,, and soon learned to find what he wanted In books. At twelve years of age be became a train boy on the Grattd Trunk Railroad. While thus engaged be improvised, with bottles and ope. thing and another, a sort of rude laboratory in tbe old baggage car wbicb WAS allowed bim for his papers, fruits, etc., and with these appliances, conducted experiments in chemistry. He also purchased some old type and established a printing office in the car, where be published a weekly paper, twelvo by sixteen inches in size, and printed only on one side. Tbe impressions were t*ken by pressing the paper on the type wi'ti the bands. ilia interest in telegraphy was aroused »t» soon became an absorbing theme with him. "He Strang tbe basement of bi* father's bouse at Port Huron with wires. Then he constructed a short line, with a boy oompanion, using in tbe batteries stovepipe wire, old botttles, nails for pl|tina, and zinc (which nrchins of the neighborhood were induced to cat out from under tbe kitchen stoves of their unsuspecting households and bring to bim for a consideration of three rants a pound)." At length tbe grateful father of a child which he snatched from before an advancing train taught him telegraphing. This profession he followed for several years, stopping for various periods in Indianapolis, Memphis, Cincinnati and other cities, and bringing up in Boston in 1868. Though somewhat desultory in his habits, be had become an accomplished operator. Here some small inventions of his succeeded, but nothing of much consequence. He went next to New York and soon at tracted attention. He was retained by the Western Union Telegraph Company and the Gold and Stock Company ata handsome salary, to give them the first bid on all his inventions relating to telegraphy. As an indication of bis fertility in this direction, it is stated that be bas no less than eighty-nine patents for telegraphic inventions and improve ments. The Western Union is said to have paid him f100,000 for the telephone alone, and a great, but unknown, sum for the quadruple! system of telegraphing. Tbe phonograph yields bim |500 a week in royalties. Bat he has spent, it is said, f400,000 in his experiments and researches.

Two years ago tbe inventor took up bis residence at Menlo Park. Here, in a long wooden building, 38x100 leet and two stories high, his researches are diligently prosecuted. Tbe lower story is •filled with tools and machinery and a force of thirteen skilled mechanics are kept busy at work there. Tbe upper story is the sanctum of Edison and is filled with retorts, magnets, batteries, •Jura, ot cetera. Here be spends tbe day and half the night in tbe business of experimenting and inventing. Tbe small hoars of the night often find him still at work. He baa little conoern about money. He prosecutes fats labor from the pure love of it. Though but .31 years old, he has already excelled Avery living man in the number and variety of bis inventions. His children be baa named Dot and Dash—after tbe symbols of tbe telegraphic alphabet.

If tbe work at Menlo Park is yet in Us infancy only (and it seems reasonable to suppose that it i*), {he ultimate outcome of it Is utterly beyoad tbe range of human conjecture.

Yoc cannot be too careful of your name, especially wbea you are requested to pnt it upon a piece of paper for the aeoommodatlon of some itinerant peddler. An exchange tells of a new and quits succcss.'ul dodge which has of Iste been played on certain farmers, mush to the niorlifloation and financial loss of the same individuals. If thess farmer* wont read tbe papers snd profit by t^msiogs 00tiS*lfc«4 therein, can

they blame anyboct* in particular if tbey are occasional fleeced :tTbe new swindling dodg^||.tjerns a sort of receipt for something Cs o^har, anything we suppose the swfr iler baa to sell. This receipt contains a multiplicity of words. How it is done is told thus "It is on a slip of paper seven or eight inches long The place of the signature is naturally in the right band oorner. Hie customer hss bought something from the smooth spoken agent, and honestly enough is perfectly willing to sign a receipt. Let that paper be cut in two, up anid down, in tbe center, and tbe right band half will be an unobjectionable thirty or sixty day promissory note. The signature is well known in tbe neighborhood it is sold or traded long before maturity to some bona fide and innocent purchaser, and the unsophisticated maker has no legal defense, Or, possibly, a wire fence agent comes along with a sample coil of wire. The customer wants a few rods of wire fence and signs an agreement to pay on delivery 4 cents per foot for five coils of wire. When delivered it appears that tbe coils each contain a quarter of a mile of wire. By the same trick the festive lightning rod agent sells the victim epough of lightning rod to thatch tbe roof of the house, when only thirty feet were needed. The safe way is not to transact business with an intinerant agent unless he can got along without your signature, to written or grip ted. instrument

SCRIBNER'S MONTHLY enters upon its gbth year with the November nuui and tbe publishers take occasion to f^ive a brief history of the enterprise. It ebtered the field of magazine literature, they.say, without a subscriber, and now has blose upon a hundred thousand, With the list steadily increasing. The eleiaents of this remarkable success are cpnsMered to be, first, the beautiful illustrations with .which the magazine has always been profusely supplied. The test artists that money could comman(l have been employed from the outset. Second, tbe publication of Am^Jncan novels and stories, in place of those of English writers, which had "been the fashion for many years. In this-way several writers in this class of literature have been discovered and developed, who are not inferior to any the.!old world can show. Third, the •cardful and comprehensive editorial jdepartment, covering political, social, and home topics, literary and art criti xpsm and noting the progress of invention and discovery. Singularly enough t^iis feature is entirely unknown to the magazines of England, which have no ^ditorial department at alL It is pleas nt to record the past success and future romise of this splendid magazine, for is one which cannot come as a regular isitor into any home without making better and happier. The November number opens with a portrait of the poet Longfellow and a beautifully illustrated article upon his life and .works, by R. H. Stoddfhl. Besides this it con tains much cither interesting matter And is, altogether, one of the best number# that has been published.

EVEN the man who is not to become a victim of tbe gullotine has curiosity enough in him to desire some knowledge of the construction of that instrument of death, and who is there that does not wish to know something about the lance of tbe mosquito? A writer in tbe Rochester Democrat has bad the pleasure of examining one of these in stru ments of torture, through tbe medium of a microscope, and says the bill of a mosquito is a complex institution. It is admirably calculated to torment. Tbe bill has a blunt fork at the end and is apparently grooved. Working through the groove and projecting from the oenter of the angle of the fork is a Jance of perfect form, sharpened with a fine level. Besido it the most perfect lance looks like a handsaw. On either side*of this lance two saws are arranged, with the points fine and sharp and tbe teeth well defined and keen. The backs of these saws play against the lance. When the mosquito alights with its poculiar hum, it thrusts in its koen lance, and then enlarges tbe aperture with the two saws, which play beside the lance until tbe forked bill with its capillary arrangement for pumping blood can be inserted. The sawing process is what grates upon the nerves of the victim and causes him to strike wildly at the sawyer. The irritation of a mosquito bite is undoubtedly owing to these saws. It is to be hoped that tbe mosquito keeps his surgical instrument clean, otherwise it might be a means of propagating blood diseases.

THE lighting of East Liverpool, Ohio, with natnral gas from wells bas been often briefly mentioned. Tbe fact is, that the plan has been for many years in successful operation. Tbe gas comes continuously and in large quantities from several deep wells, and is available not only for light but for heat. JPor light it requires no preparation, but burns readily with great illuminating power. The flames in the street lamps are not put out in the daytime, because that would ooat something, and the gas does not. Pipes carry the gas into grates and stoves, where it is used for beating and cooking. Tbe first gas well was opened twenty years ago, and Its supply is not yet in tbe least dianinisbed.

A LARGE number of jobbing and wholesale firms of Cleveland, having been interviewed with regard to the fall trade, report a decided increase of business. Tbe effeot is lsrgely attributed to the result of the election in Ohio and tbe certainty of resumption at the time fixed bylaw.

IF we may credit his statements, Samuel J.'Tilden lived in a state of lamentable ignorance of the doings going on around and about him previous to and just succeeding tbe late presidential election, and tbe wonder creeps into tbe mind of the average reader whether there was anything affecting his own interests, and for which his barrels of money flowed so freely, that he knew ttbout-

"THE HAUNTED HOTEL," Wilkie Collins' last story, is one of the most fascinating we have ever published. The installment this week will cause tbe most intense eagerness to reach the p9int when the mystery will be unravelled. This story is republished in this country as fast as it appears in Belgravia, only by the New York World, Boston Times, and the Saturday Evening Mail. It was commenced in this paper nine weeks ago. A full set of the back numbers will be sent to any address, postage paid for twenty-five cents.

WATSON'S "Annals of Philadelphia" credits that shrewd utilitarian, Benjamin Franklin, with the introduction of broocp corning tjtfp country. French lady he was conversing with bad a ^ery pretty whisk, bleached as white as 9now. He asked leave to examine it, and found a single seed, which was duly planted in a box. From this single seed has sprung tbe now gteat broopa corn producing interest of the country. The lady could not say where her broom whisk had beeflgrowp, nor .^could after inquiry trace its origin any further.

HEREAFTER the system of selling goods by "drummers," or commercial travelers, will oe largely curtailed. The fact is the practice grew to such proportions that the burden could no longer be b.irne. Some bosses paid from 840,000 to £50,000 a year to traveling men and tbe profits of the business were almost entirely absorb^ in this way. The wholesale houses in the large cities ate spending part of the money heretofore paid to drummers, in liberal adver tising and it is said with very satisfactory results. Thero was no doubt a great deal of money spent to poor purpose under the old system, which was run to extremes.

SENATOR MCDONALD was interviewed by a newspaper reporter in New York the other day and in answer to tbfe question what he thought of the future ot tbe Greenback party, said ho thought it had reached the culminating point of its growth, at least in tbe Northwest. The greenback sentiment, he thought, was an outgrowth of the bard times, and as times improve people will settle down upon tbe old idea ef a sound metallic system of money, with a convertible paper currency. He thought the Greenback party would probably preserve their organisation and put a candidate in the field in 1880, but doubted if tbey would be able to control a single electoral vote.

A STRANGE wedding took place at Washington, Ohio, on Wednesday afternoon of last week. The bride was there and the sroom three thousand miles away, at Georgetown, Colorado. Tbe ceremony was performed by the Rer. George Carpenter, and the high contracting parties were Mr. Wheeler El Sis and Miss Lina Sailors. The wedding day bad been appointed, but Mr. Ellis con Id not, from business engagements, be on band. Tbe young lady's mother would not allow her daughter to go away from boms unmarried, so, at the suggestion of the minister, the marriage was consecrated by telegraph, and then the bride started for her husband in the far west. Wo suppose this marriage is perfectly valid, although celebrated in so psouliar manner. In. the eye of the law every marriage ceremony is merely tbe public declaration of the nuptial contract, and this telegraphic wedding is just as truly such a declaration as that in ordinary use. While a yonrig oouple may be married three thousand ntHee apart, there is one thing sure, at such a distance thay can't keep house any wise a well regulated faimL

Shows and Show Folks.

Two of the best companies—in their Une8 of business—that have visited this city for many seasona came this week, played two nights each, and the managers went way poorer than they came. One of these was the Adah Richmond Burlesque Company, on Monday and Tuesday evenings. The poor patronage was partially accounted for by tbe short notice, due to a change of route, and the obaracter of the illustrations pot upon the bill board. It is a pleasure to note that in the performances there was no approach to the "loud" posters. It is tbe best'opera iuffe company that has ever visited this city, and tbe two performances gave the liveliest satisfaction. The rendition of "Girofla-Girolla" permitted a decided verdict in their favor as compared with tbe performance of the same opera by Mrs. Oates, and now there ia a desire for the Adah Richmond company to return during tbe season and give "ChimeE of Normandy" —which is in their repertoire—that a comparison may be made with the Hess a 1 I

The other company that for some unexplained cause met with such poor business was the Blanche Meda combination, on Wednesdsy and Thursdsy evenings, in the beautiful drama of "Won at Last," one of the best and purest society plays now on the stsge. As given here it was a performance alike extraordinary for the drama de lineated as tbe characters presented. Blanche Meda made an exceedingly favorable impression in tbe dual role of girl and woman, Couldock, tbe best old man on the stage, Minnie Monk, occupying the same rank as old woman, Frank Aiken, strong in his personation, in fact every member of the troupe seemed to be picked from the entire profession particularly for the character assumed. We do not expect to see a better dramatic performance this season and we hope tbe company will return at some time, that our theatre-going people may make amends for tbe cold reception of this week.

On Monday and Tuesday evenings of next week Mr. Barney Macauley, supported by his own company, will appear at the Opera House, and produce the new American comedy, entitled "A Messenger from Jarvis Section," in which as Uncle Dan'l, "Deputy Sheriff of Jarvis Section nigh onto fifteen year," he is said to present a characterization which deserves to rank with the "Slote" of Florence and the "Sellers" of Raymond. The comedy is strictly American in its characteristics, and is very highly commended by the press of the cities in which it has been produced. From a number of very oompliqaentary notices we select the following from the St. Paul Daily News

The elite of St. Paul turned out in fall force last night to greet this truly great actor and his company of comedians, and the impression the performance made was agreeable in the extreme, in fact it was a most emphatical and phe nomenal success Macauley as "Uncle Dan'l" is truly great. He bristles with a peculiar humor, alternately bringing tears and roars of laughter from the audience. He sent them nome in a most happy mood.

It bas been the custom with editors in indorsing a performance to place the leading artist on a par with Jefferson, Mayo, Raymond and ctber character artists^ but we go above and beyond all that and unhesitatingly place Mr. Macauley at the head of all and pronounoe him peerless.

He is ably assisted by Miss Kate Wilson, who fairly outrivals the great Lotta. The other members of the company are far superior to any ofher stock artists who travel. We recommend Mr. Macauley. He is great—see him, he has no equal. f!||

The WallairSisters will not be here next Saturday evening, as was announced yesterday.

Never before bas thiseUy been visited by so great a number of enturtalomenta of such excellency, and so varied, as IS shown on tbe Opera House books for the coming month. Here is the list: "Evangeline" and "Conrad the Corsair," on the 4th and 5th.

Tbe Mayor of Keokuk, Iowa, refused to permit the May Flake Blonde Troupe to perform in that city, and the manageress thereupon srred him for damages, and in her argument says: "If I bad a Bible in my band I could proclaim myself from the housetops but because I have some virtuous orphan girls in charge the doors are closed against me."

Tbe Buffalo Bill company, which bas been on a southern trip, got as far south as Suvauaab.Oa., where tbey canceled all dates and jumped back north, this course being compelled by tbe ravagesJ of the el tow ter«r. The manager1

writes that the people are in no mood to patronise entertainments, and that it will be a long time before amusement matters will pick up.

An English lord has sued the manager of a London theatre for the price of two seats which he'had, but left when his wife was required to remove her bonnet and leave it in tbe waiting rpom Upon leaving tbe theatre be demanded bis money back, and not receiving it, sued for its recovery.

Haverly has been givl&g Chicago this week a minstrel array never before equalled on the minstrel stage. His four great traveling organizations are blended into one, and fifty performers on one stage is a thing never before heard of id that way. Tbe combination embraces tbe very brightest performers in the profession. 1

The manager of a certain "New York theatre refuses to admit members of the profession, except upon payment, on tbe first night of anew play. He gives as his reason fbr s6 doing that he never knew an actor to speak well of a first night performance, and as their opinions hsve a great" influence upon a certain class of theatre goers the_business of the theatre is thus injured.^

Do mi nick Murray stars in a play en titled "Escaped from Sing Sing." Olive Logan incidentally mentioned him'as "a sensational actor." He retorts that he is a gentleman, and adds: "I am pleased to say that I entertain for Miss Logan individually a feeling of profound respect, not so much on account of her literary ability, which is but limited, as' on acoount of her stupendous cheek, which is evidently unlimited."

The manager of a certain theatre not a thousand miles from here wished to curtail his list of dead headB. With this interest, therefore, he took down a rusty bible, and with much care made the following significant collection, which bo handed to all who came for passes. It read as follows: In those days there were no pawids given.

Search the Scriptures.

Thou shalt not pass.—Numbers xx, 18. Suffer not a man to pass.—Judges Hi, 27. The wicked shall no more pass.—Nahum 1. None shall ever pass.—Isaiah xxxiv, 10. This generation shall riot pass.—Mark xiii, 30. Though tbey roar,yet shall they not pass. —Jeremiah *xii, 42.

A confirmed deadhead, and abetter biblical student, has boaten tbe man ager with bis own weapons, as witness the following reply: He Bhall go In free for nothing.—Exodus xvi, 2. Ye shall have the Pass over.—Ezekiel, xiv, 21. Thou Bhalt let him go free.—Deut. xv, 12. And let him go free,—Psalm v, 20. For he was to pass that way.—Luke x, 4. Comfort your hearts, after that ye shall pass on.—Gen. xvii, 5. Ye shall be free indeed.—John viil, 36. And he said unto the people, pass on.—
