The long dis tance telephone system is paralleling the older telegraph lines all over the coun- tv, and in the cities the average of use phone is of tho telegraph, owing to rapid transit, | messenger service, special delivery let- ters, and, above all, the telephone, has dropped much below one message per head per year, A suggestion lately put forward by Mr. P. B. Delany, an inventor and electrician of high standing, is the sub ject just now of warm disougsion in electrical circles. Having in mind the statistics quoted above, Mr. Delany an- nounces his firm conviction that it is time to get out of the telegraph its full working value, and that it ought now to be used for the carriage of the mails, not in the physical sense, but literally, all the same. He believes that 40,000 or 50.000 letters of about 50 words each between Chicago and New York could every day be profitably sent over a cou- ple of copper wires at a rate of 12 cents or 15 cents apiece, Thousands of such letters now pay 12 cents in the mail to insure the saving of half an hour after a journey of 24 hours, whereas, by Mr. Delany's plan, correspondence between two such m centers could interchanged in an hour, and delivered in clean etropolitan easily be the de nts ber i The pla ma been or 5 based necessarily on hy,"' which has not g In yr the phrase o shall have which » ut of a crofter comin ut it was Milton who ebeian word by admitting mmortal poetry.

Instantly the huge ships begin to turn, to sweep around in great curves and to rearrange themselves in a new forma tion. Or scattered cruisers nearly hull down on the horizon respond to a sum { mons, and in half an hour come flying | back to the fleet, take up their appoint ed stations and conform to its move ments. The ease with which the 14,000 ton battleships swing round to their helms, the speed with which they take up their new stations, the quick re sponse and the regularity of movement are oxtraordinarily impressive For a shore going parallel to this fleet one must imagine 21 cavalry regiments maneuvering at a canter, each individ- ually responsive to orders rapidly trans- missible over long distances. Bot on ghore it would be impossible, except from as balloon or a commanding hill, to take in the a single will movements at a glance At sea one follow the evolutions of each ship.

The wagon turned aside, and the man grinned and said that he was from Limerick. «New York Herald, A Famous French Detective, M. G.
