A New Invention tobelneerted " " ' "in Subqnbs'rB Hpuses. _ _ " "ThTo'maha Electric company have been. contemplating" for some time past a radical changejn-the telephone system of our ityr Omaha's exchange was ihe tenth constructed in the 'United States and when the apparatus were put in they were of the latest and most approved designs. Since then , bowevor , a number of improvements liavo been made tending to the greater perfection of the system , and in order to keep up with * the times , the com pany have determined to take out all the old signal bells and insert others of a newer and later pattern. The great trouble with 'tho old elec tric bell has resulted from the Incon stancy of the largo battery at the central 6ffice-which supplied the cur * rent to all , the magnets throughout the system. At times the battery would work well and the bells would signal loud and clear when sounded , at other times it would prove weak , and great difficulty was experienced In gettirg any sound at all. Besides this , the battery of GOO cells required constant attendance and frequent re plenishing. To do away entirely with the battery is now the aim of the officers of the company. They propose to take out all the old bells from the houses aud exchange , and insert a new invention cslled ihe Magneto bell. This instrument needs no battery to work the bell hammer. The electricity is generated by means of a email crank which tbo sub scriber turns as he presses the but ton which calls up the central office. Enough electricity is produced by the little magnetic machine inside the box to Tvprk a circuit fifty miles in length. With this simple invention there can be no excuse for the bells failing to respond spend to the signalling button. The company also proposes tolessen the number of subscribers on a circuit and to furnish separate wires to such as desire them , charging a email extra rental in such cases. They also in tend to make a radical change in the central office by means of which con nection canto made more rapidly be tween different circuits. To do this a largo and now switch board is to be placed in the ollico and. the old and cumbrous shelves with innumerable clanging bolls is to be removed. Wheu these changes -are made the Omaha exchange will be abreast of the best in our country , and will furnish as many conveniences as the New York exchange itself. The num ber otsubacribera.who. use telephones in our city is now aboufSOO. When the exchange started business only 100 names were on its books. Since that time the Omaha "Electric company have opened exchanges in Council Bluffs and Lincoln , in the former of which-villases they now have 100 subscribers , and in } he latter about ' 70. - v $ ?
