Promoter of Telephone Arrested 60 Yeiss Ago as Swindler of Public It may well be that in another half- century miracles will have developed from what are now regarded by a great many people as hallucinations, comments the Pennsylvania Public Service Information Committee. The following news item published in an eastern newspaper in 1861 indicates that even the “impossible” can hap- pen. “A man about forty-six years of age, giving the name of Joshua Cop- persmith, has been arrested in New York for attempting to extort funds from ignorant and superstitious peo- ple by exhibiting a device which he says will convey the human voice any distance over metallic wires so that it will be heard by listeners at the other end. “He calls the instrument a ‘tele- phone,” which is obviously intended to imitate the word ‘telegraph’ and win the confidence of those who know of the success of the latter instru- ment without understanding the prin- ciples on which it is based. Well in- formed people know that it is impos- sible to transmit the human voice over wires as may be done wifh dots and dashes and signals of the Morse Code, and that, were it possible to do so, the thing would be of no practical value. _ “The authorities who apprehended the criminal are to be congratulated, and it is to be hoped that his punish- ment will be prompt and fitting that it may serve as an example to other conscienceless schemers who enrich themselves at the expense of their fellow creatures.” The Origin of the Potato. The potato is a native of elevated districts of tropical and sub-tropical America. It has-been found growing wild in the Andes -of South America, Mexico and the Rocky Mountain re- gion of North America. The potato was cultivated and used as food long anterior to the discovery of America by Europeans. It seems to have keen taken to Europe by the Spaniards in the 16th century, and spread from Spain into the Netherlands, Burgundy, and Italy, but only to be cultivated in a few gardens as a curiosity, and not for general use as a food. It appears to have been taken to Ireland from Virginia by Hawkins in 1565; and to England by Sir Francis Drake, in 1858; without attracting much notice, till it was a third time imported from America by Sir Walter Raleigh.—By Mr. Whiteaker, in Ad- venture Magazine. Pork on Hoof High in Price. Never since the Civil War have fat hogs been so high in price as they are at present. Some sold at 16 cents a pound. During the Civil War, when everything was high in price, it was only a short time that hogs were as high as they are now. A number of farmers who have good sized shoats that they intended to feed for winter killing are now hurrying them on so they will be ‘Centre 71-16-tf LUMBER? Oh, Yes! W. RR. Shope Lumber Co.
