TELEPHONES ON CARS. A Toledoan (ilvrn a Practical Demou nt ration of a Seiv Ini ciitlon. Muskegon. Mich., Jan. 10. —C. F. Bid well, of Toledo, on Thursday gave the first practical demonstration of his father's invention of a telephone system whereby it is possible to call up and talk from an electric car go ing at full speed with any one who is located in another car on the samo line running in any direction and at any distance. The system is applicable to either steam or electric roads. The over head trolley is used for one side of their circuit and for the other a second wire is strung parallel with the stationary trolley. The metal trolley pole of,the car is attached to a second pole viihich operates on the additional wire l\y means of a flanged wheel. A closed circuit is thus ob tained. Telephone wires are at tached to each of the two trolley poles which lead to the telephone pole in the car. The heavy voltage required to operate the electric cars is reduced to that used for telephone service by a special invention. Stic* Howie for 030,000. Chicago, Jan. 10.—Benjamin F.

( llouMchold Sport that Waken No Hud of Fun for tlie Young. This game may be played by any number of persons. It requires neith er preparation nor material, and may, therefore, be introduced any where at any time, says the Louisville Courier-Journal. Send one person from the room and then agree upon what he is to do when you call him back. This should' be some simple act, and yet one that he would not be likely to think of, say. for example, to look at himself [ in the mirror; to bow to a certain! j player; to take a player by the hand j and lead her or him to the middle I j of the room, or to take a sofa pillow i and put it behind a certain player's | back. Having settled what he is to do,' you summon him back into the room' by music arranged for the occasion.! The, music is to be made by tapping j I some metal object with a key. The best thing to use is a poker, fromj i which low or loud notes may be | brought at will. As the player is to be guided by j the music in the performance of his task, the musician must keep close! watch on him ami give him warning.' When he begins to do anything like what has been appointed, the music should be low; when he does what he i ought not to do, it should be loud. Let us suppose, for example, tlmf ! he is to take a sofa pillow and put | it behind a certain player's back. As he enters the room the music is mak-l ing a great clatter, and this tends| to keep him from collecting his thoughts, as it. is intended to do. j Presently he walks toward the sofa where the pillow is lying, and the j music becomes soft. This tells him I : that he is on the right track. He' touches a chair and the music be- 1 comes loud, which tells him that j chair has no part in his task. lie. touches the sofa and the music grows soft, and when he touches the pillow it ceases for a moment and then be-* gins again, very soft. He now knows he is to do some j thing with the pillow, but what? He] ' stands and holds it—wrong! He puts l I it on the floor and sits on it—very! ' loud music! Then he throws it down] before some player, but the music is] \ still loud. Then it occurs to him that ! a sofa pillow makes a good rest for, : one's back, and he puts it behind a' | player, but the player is not the one selected and the music does not' cease, though it becomes very faint. ' Ivs faintness suggests that he has hit j on the right thing, but not the right j playir, and he tries player after 1 player until he finds the one selected, | when the music stops and his task Is done.
