WASHINGTON , IX C. , Aug. 10. The
[ loath of MM. ICJison , wife of the in
ventor , on Sunday morning Itist directs
) iiblic nttmiliun ouco itioro to this eingu-
nr individuftl whoso faino duriiif ? the
past decade has grown world wldo. Kd-
mm Isjnot n goniiis in the soiiso of pos
sessing creative power , llo ia a clover
adaptor but nothing moro. Ilo in to the
world of science what Boucicanlt ia to
ho dramatic world , Koithcr the ono or
ho other over originated nn idea in
their linuo , but each is wonderfully exert -
ert in elaborating and improving on the
crude efforts of others. There has been
nero nor.aonso written about Edison
than probably any other living man
"Io sprang into fnmo with n bound
hough for uovoral years previous ho had
icon prominent in the development of
electrical acioncu. It was the phonograph
hat first brought Edison wealth nnd
glory. There waa nothing In the phon *
jgraph per BO. but the advertising it gave
lim waa immense. After its utility had
been demonstrated , no ono doubted Edi-
non'n capacity to perform wonders. If he
had announced Jus ability , through the
aid of some now invention , to pluco him
self in communication with the inhab
itants of the planota of Jupiter and Mara
there would have been found plenty of
pcoplo ready to believe him. Thuru are
iluxuim of telegraphers in the service to
day who know Edison nway back
'n the ' ( iO'a when ho earned a living
no the boya express it , "pounding
rass. " It is doubtful if ono of this
number will dissent from the writer's
statement that whilu Edison possesses
great adaptability , ho is totally lacking
, n creative powor. 11 is gold and stock
rinting instrument his first invention
was merely an improvement on om
that had boon in gunural use for a ycai
or two provioun. The ( jnadruplox in
strument , which quadruples the carrying
capacity of a telegraph line , is the logical
sequence of the "duplex , " which Steams ,
the IJooton electrician , evolved from hi >
cunning brain. The phonograph wan
an accident. It was suggoiled to Edison
while experimenting with the telephone.
The first phonograph was n heavy ami
cumbersome ullair. After it was com
pleted Edison tinkered over it a whole
day trying to make it work. Not BUC-
cueding an ho thought , ho throw It into n
corner , where it lay for some weeks
Ono of Edison's usaistantB found it lyinj ;
there on ono occasion and after adjusting
it carefully ho was overjoyed to diacovei
ho could gain a slight reproduction which
Edison's partial deafnoas had proventeo
him from hearing. , ' 'It wan thereupon im
proved and { foffoctcd until in the hand
of an export , it could bo made to repeal
vvir.tovor was spoken into it with u reasonable
sonablo 'degroo of accuracy. The tolo
hone which bnara Edison's name is not
an original production. There are half n
claimants to its paternity , but
Elisha Gray , of Chicago , is probably en
titled to as much credit for its inception
aa any other American citizen. It had
boon ovolvcd and taken shape long before -
fore Ediaon dreamed of itna n possibility.
The name 'may bo said of the
olcctrio light and all tlio
other inventions with which his
natno ia associated. Years ago Tom Edi
son and the writer wore lads together in
the old Western Union telegraph ollico
at Cincinnati. Edison was at that time
as sorry a specimen of humanity as ono
would wish to see outside the gates of nn
nlmhouao or prison reformatory. Do
was about 18 or 20 years old. Ilo was
tall for hia ago , knock-kneed , louse
jointed , and awkard to a degree that
was painful to behold. Ilia arms wore
long , uud his hands obviously were a
great ombaraasmont to him. Ilia man-
norUwaa shy and diflidont. When he
spoke ho uttered his words in a low tone
after the fashion of people whoso hear
ing is partly dofoctivo. It ia impossible
to conceive of n man who was moro euro
loss about his personal attire. The
mossongora in the company's employ
were recruited from the ranks of the
street gamins of that dirty and smoke-bo-
grimed city , but there was not ono of
their number who would have boon neei
in Edison's clothes outside ot the ollico ,
Ho would put on n ahirt and wear it un
til no laundry would receive it and then
throw it aside , when it waa practicable , to
bog or borrow another , llow ho lived 11
was an inscrutable mystery. Ho never
sot foot within the precincts of n board
ing hotiBO during tlio whole of his reai
dunce in Cincinnati. Ilo used to sleep
in the ollico whenever it was possible ,
and thtiu avoid paying room rent. Thia
was easily accomplished , inasmuch na he
belonged to the night force and wns
usually the last to go oil'duty. Ilo waa
very unpopular with his a aociatca. The
principle reason for this waa hisdisroptu |
able iippoaranco , which made it n eovoro
potiancu to recogniiso him on the street.
Ilia miserly habits , too ( for it was aup-
posed ho must save every penny since ho
was never known to spend onoj , got him
in bad odor , and would of itself have
boon sufficient to damn him in the oycs
of a profession which regarded a man as
moan and unworthy of respect who wns
mot otornually "broko" and oars over
head in debt.
But little poor Edson'carod. Ilo was
aa oblivious to the sneers and snubs of hia
follow-operatora as if such a thing as so *
cial ostracism never existed. llo had
two or three friends in the ollico , of whom
the writer was ono ; but never a word es
caped him about his private nfiaira. His
salary wag $110 a month , and It is no ox-
ggoration to say that his total expenses
for the year would not exceed that sum.
Finally the manager aai'l it was disgrace
ful for a man drawing that salary to sleep
in the ollico. Whether ho rented a roomer
or what ho did cannot bo said , but it was
not an infrequent occurranco for him to
call ut the writor'u \i \
roam long after mid
night , when 1m had finished hia worknnd
bog permiaalon to sleep on the sofa. Thu
requeat would usually bo greeted with
howls of dieuuat from the other ocoupsnta
of the chamber , but to this ho gave little
hood. "May I ? " ho would aak , fixing
hia melancholy cyea upon hia ono friend
in the room , and at the aamo time rubin -
in ? hia'.blg rod hands totjothor to roatoro
ho circulation The good-natured young
ster thus appealed to would end the clis
nuto by throwing Ednon a blanket , and u
minute later ho would be curled up under
its folds snoring away aa contentedly ns
'f fate had niaorved for him its fairest and °
brightest offertiga ! ,
Ediaon waa a eplendid operator. That
s to say , ho wan phenomenally clover 01

lie used to copy the Associate press dis
patches nnd would amuan himself in the
intervals ' of reat by drawing all aorta of
ridiculous caricatures on the tmrgin of
the sheet. The boyn thought it very
funny , but the telegraph editors probn-
b1y regarded it as an unmitigated nui
sance. Edison would copy the dispatch-
cfl at the highest rate of up o ed nnd print
the text. The handwriting waa round
and uniform. It seemed to bo no ofibrt.
to copy in this manner for a whole eve
ning , which ho usually did , though his
chirography at times was pure Sponcori-
an. Finally ho drifted down to Uoston ,
where it aeoma ho waa regarded less as a
social pariah than M nn amusing chnrac
tor. Here , too , his budding talent ru
coivcd its firal real duvolqpoinont from
association with men like Moses G. Far
mer , ( Joorgo I ) . Millikun , nnd other oloc-
tricinna of unto. Tliclr intelligence
allowed thorn thnt this uncouth woatora
boy wns n veritable rough diamond , nnd
to their well directed nlFbrta in Edison in
debted to liia first real start in lifu. In n
short time ho abandoned hia calling na nn
oporntor to enter upon the broader nnd
moro honorable Hold of electrical engi
neering. Tliia marked nn epoch in hia
experience from which dntcn nil hia nub-'l

contrary. Jlis moral nature was olovntod
and puro. Ilo wna naturally a good hey
in the sonco of freedom from vices , llo
was an inordinate tobacco chewer , n fact
to which his stained shirt-front bore ample -
plo testimony. Ilo probably hoarded
every penny with the view of accumula
ting n sum that would ultimately enable
him to carry out a long-cherished echemo
of elaborate experiments. This belief
ia justified by subsequent ovonta.
fter Ediaon grow famous and wealth
ocgan to pour upon him , .ho established
an extensive workshop and laboratory at
the village of Menlo Park , juot across the
Now .Icrnoy border. lie also erected n
line house , where ho lives in quiet bach
elor flimplicity. Ilo surrounded himself
with a corpse of assistants , each of whom
was an export in hia special lino. In
tliPBO days when ho was probably moro
Ambitious of faino and felt a deeper per-
ional Interest in his experiments , it la
niu that ho worked his assistants nearly
> o death. Ilo would lock them aa well
is himself in a room , nnd hours would '
sometimes lengthen into days boforothoy
: ould escape. When they would protest
that they were almost dead for sleep
no would tell them to Ho down on the
Hoar and snatch n little rest. Their
meals would bo brought to them , but
Kdison would never stop work. Ilo has
boon known to live for days on broad
tail cheese. While his right hand would
10 occupied in figuring out the solutionof
loino abatrnct problem , ho would iced
himself mechanically by breaking oil'lit
le bite of the broad and cheeso. Ho
would work until sleep overpowered him.
When ho nwoko ho would commence
.vlicro ho had loft oil' . Few men could
itand the mental and physical strain. Ed-
uion'tt success in this regard was duo
lotciy to hia frugal , simple habits , nnd to
.ho tact that in his early youth ho had
lowed no "wild oata" to spring up in
later yonra and vex him.
The atory of Edison's marriage is n
curious one , and quite in keeping with
hin singular character. It waa told to
' .ho writer by Edison's private secretary ,
and ia vouched for as being literally true.
Una day u friend asked him why ho did
not got married. "You have a nice homo
up there on the hill. Why don't you
provide n young and pretty mistress for
it ? " Edison looked up in the absent
minded fashion that was usual to him ,
andauid : "To toll you the truth , old
follow , it never occurred to mo. Whom
shall I marry. "That's n pretty ques
tion ! " exclaimed his friend indignantly.
' A man who has no moro sentiment in
his soul than you have ought to bo aatia
lied with anything that were n petticoat
and was virtuous. "
Ediaon thought the matter over a few
daya. Ho was at that time about 27
years of ago , nud after the auguestion
waa made it seemed to atriko him with
great favor. It may bo doubted if such
an idea over occurred to him before. Ilo
remembered a pretty , young girl In his
employ whoso modest and gentle manner
had loft a plonsiug impression on his
mind. 13o went up to her suddenly ono
day , nnd in hla shy , awkward manner ,
aaid : "A friend of mine has auggoatod
that I got married. I haven't much time
to think of such things , but I should
imagine you would make about the sort
of a wife I want. If you will marry mo
I'll promise to make you a good hus
band. " The youny lady was nnturally
somewhat surprised , but said aho would
think it over. Edison gave her n week
in which to decide. Shu finally accepted
himatid the wedding followed soon after.
An extensive tour waa projected , em
bracing the Now England ntatcs nnd n
portion of the Cnnadan. As they drove
from the church to 1)10 ) station Edition
remembered that ho had forgotten some
thing nt his laboratory , which demanded
only a moments attention. "Drivo on
to the station , " said ho , springing out of
the carriage , "I'll meet you there in
twenty niinutea. " The bridal party did
ao and that wau the last seen of Ediaon
for forty-eight hours. llo had grown
immersed in some new idea that had
suddenly presented itself and bocnmo ob
livious to brides , wedding tours , and
every thing else. Mrs. Ediaon had great
inlluonco over her husband. She was n
woman evidently of tact and adroitness.
In the course of time she oH'ected a strik
ing metamorphosis in his personal np-
pearanco. The seedy and ill-fitting
clothes gave way to garments of moro
fashionable make , nnd the ruaty old
lioavor of the vintage of ' 40 found con
genial lodgings in an ash barrnll , while
its place waa adorned with a tile of moro
modern construction. She loft three
children , the oldest of whom is 8 years of
ago.

It ia probably unprecedented in the
history of the Catholic ciiurch that the
anprcmo authorities nt Homo should take
auch prompt nnd decided notion on n

the case of Father 1 * . Corrigan , of Hobo

suppressed , but extracts fmm which
were published in the Morgury nt the

Father Gorrignn'a theory that in n coun
try like tin's , where nil government , na
tlonal , utnto nnd local , ia representative
of the pcoplo , there should bo a "homo
rule" to some extent in the church nlao ,

KJ..I Wiggorand ono of hia assistants
came to Now York and had the stereotype -
typo platoa of Father Corrigan'a book
. carried from the press room to the stereo
' typing foundry and molted up , nnd now
has como the word from Cardinal Jacob-
iui that his book ia permitted to circulate
nnd bo sold freely in Homo nnd that an
' Italian edition has been published nt
Florence. Tlio chief point in the book
was nn advocacy of the principle that the
priests should have a voice in the selec
tion of their bishops ; and n cable dispatch
from Homo n few days ngo brought the
confirmation of this theory by the pope
himself. The death of Bishop McMulleu ,
of Davenport , Iowa , left n va
cancy which waa not filled up till
last week. The bishops of the province mot
according to the rule that line ulwaya
heretofore prevailed in America , and
selected the names of three priests ,
which were forwarded to Ilomo _ , for the
choice of ono of them aa Bishop Mc-
Mullon'a auccosaor. Thorp waa unusual
delay at Homo , and then it wna learned
that the Holy See was considering the
question of breaking away from the old
rule. The priests of the diocese wore
asked to send on nominations , which
they did , and the Pope cast aside the
nominations of the bishops of the prov
ince and made hia selection from the
nominations . , farwarded by the priests of
the diocese. Father fiosgrove , vicar
general of the diocese of Davenport , has
boon appointed bishop of that section.
Thus the Pope hold , aa Father Corrigati
did in hia suppressed pamphlet that the
PKIESTS WEHK THE 11KST JUDGES
of who should bo their biahop ,
and the Hobokcn pastor has gained a
signal triumph over his opponents and
critics. An eminent priest of New York
said to a Mercury reported yesterday
that , in his opinion , "this action was
token by Homo for the purpose of indica
ting to the great council which will Boon
meet in Baltimore what they should do
on this question. Some of the hierarchy
are in favor of the priests electing their
bishop ? , notably Archbishop Gibbons , of
Baltimore , the highest Catholic Church
authority In this country , and whoso
per , Thu Baltimore Mirror , haa heartily
endorsed Father Corrigan's pamphlet.
But the great majority of bishops are op
poaed to it. Like all other men , they do
not want to surrender authority. They
have not aaid a word about the matter.
It might , bo expected they would have
naked their priests for opinions upon it ,
but , they have kept moat guardedly quiet.
uud have made no reference whatever I
to it. I might toll you what is not known |
to many of the priests even , that the
OltEAT QUESTIONS.
that will occupy the attention of the
council will bo : First , this qucation of
how bishops are to bo nominated in fu
ture ; second , the religious orders , aa to
the management of their property , etc. ;
third , the 'financial question , that ia , to
prevent bishops or priests becoming cus
todians of the poodle's money ; tourth ,
the educational question , not in re
gard to the secular teaching of children ,
but of young men for the priesthood.
There is also another question of in
terest to priests which will como up. A
bishop has now the absolute power to remove -
move n pastor of a church , nnd the pas
tor has no redress. The pope has sent a
command thnt this power of the bishops
bo qualified and curtailed to some extent.
llo tolls them that at least ono pastor in
every nine muat bo made a permanent
pastor i who cannot bo removed save for
cause ana nfter specific charges shall
have j been made against him and ho is
given n trial. The council is given the
privilege of making ono pastor in every
throe permanent , but muat make one in
every nine. Home ia in favor of giving
the priojtfl more say and moro security
in the church of "America and therein
Homo allows its historic wiadom. I re
gard Una privilege of the priosta to op
lects their bishops iia n very long stop in
the right direction. Biahop Cosgrovo is
11 the first Bishop In the United States
chosen by the sufi'ragea of the pneata ,
and to Father Corrigan's pamplet I be
lieve is duo the improved method of fill
ing vacant bishoprics. "

"Referring to fish , said Colonel Yea !
Nichols to n News reporter , yesterday 18si
afternoon , ' 'reminds ' mo of a trip I once IK
took up in Dakota in 1877. Wo were IKhi
traveling in a coach , and there were about IK
n dozen of us , among them John Powell , ai
who , by the way , waa with the reporter ) aiM
llonry Shafiint , now a prosperous farmer ia
in this county , Theodore Wheeler , who iam
now owns a horse and cattle much at iafii
Lupton.und strangers from various piirta. fii
Whoi'lor , by the way , was ono of the fiiD
moat bash fill young men I over know. I D
used to think 1 was bashful , but he Iv
yanked the bun , Well , wo were headed fa
for Doudwood. The Indians seemed to fauu
run things up in thut auction after their ri
own way , and almost every stage coach has
had been hold up nnd robbed and the ey
passongcra either killed or held at ran ho
som. An a consequence of these pro ton
ceeding killings , every occupant of the ia
coach carried Winchesters nnd n pair of She
Colt's on his hips. yore
"But the fish ] "
queried the reporter. re
"That's so. But na I was Baying , wo
were all armed to the teeth. Of course
was frantic with delight. I was much
younger those days than I am now , nnd the
my throbbing heart craved for the gore
of the uncertain ludian. It fns thot ter | ,

But I didn't have the opportunity , which
was ; not my fault , "
"Quito n ( ish story. "
" \Vcll wo were nbout Iwo days ride
from Dondwood , nnd the road was aw
fully dusty and Indians were occasion
ally s > on hrivcring around the horizon ,
but none c.xmo near enough for any of
us to got a crack nt them. This irritated
the driver n great deal , nnd you may 1 > ? -
llovo mo or not , just as you please , thnt
driver drove us n straight fifty-two hours
without stopping for anything to cat or
anything olso. As n conaeqiionco wo got
mighty hnnttry , and when wo struck nn
eating station a few hours this sldo of
Doadwood.
"Thia is where tlio fifth como in ? "
"Novor you mind the fish. "When wo
were once stopped the driver oaid tn
hurry as ho was to change horses and go
right on. Then there was a great rush.
The wonnn who run the place wna nn
Amoxon , 1 tell you , nnd looked na though
she , was strong enough tn tnko the whole
kit ' ot us nnd throw us out of the houso.
But she didn't. Finally scmo one stele
something nnd she jumped onto mo na
being the guilty vrrotch. In these days
blol was not a morbid , bloated government
oflicial , but n simple seeker after the
glittering goddess. But I attracted her
attention to such an extent that the rest
nlol
ol the passengers took ndvant-
oloi elf f of it nnd placed a box
oi crnckors , a cheese , sev
eral links of questionable bolognas and
box of sardines in the bottom of the
coach. Finally the driver shouted "all
aboard , " nnd Wheeler nnd myself were
alone in the houso. "You stole a box
of sardines , " naid the woman. "No , I
didn't , it waa that other fellow,1' aaid I ,
pointing toward Wlioolor. "It ia n
Ho , " said Wheeler , blushing to the tips of
his toes. The old lady made for him ,
when wo both made our escape and got
into the coach just ns it started on the
jump for Deadwood , "
"But where does the fhh como in. "
"Why , you old stupid , ain't sardines
fish ? " said Colonel Ves aa ho grabbed
Powell by the arm and wnltzod oil'
toward the now government building.

Stacking Grain.
South nud West.
The crent aocrot of successful stacking
ia to keep the center of the stack full
and high. This ii the very point in
which so many stackers fail. To keep
the middle of the stack na high as it
should bo is not an oaay matter by any
means , for the moro elevated the center
is the greater the tendency of the out
side courses to slip out nnd spoil the
stack. But the stacker should remember
member that aa the stack settles , the
middle , bearing the greater weight ,
sinks the most , and two weeks attor the
stack is built will bo much lower than at
{ the beginning. If the middle sinks so
low . that the outside courao of sheaves
inclines inward , the heads of the sheaves
being lower than the butts , the stack
will epoil , as rain will pass
into the stack instead of passing oil' it.
iiK
Each inside courao should cover the
bands of the sheaves in the courao outside
elk it ; this , if followed out honestly , will
keep the middle of the stack high enough.
In laying the outaido bundles , stick each
bundle into the ono below it , using considerable
sidorablo force , but being careful not to
displace the lower sheaf. This is the
only oilectivo method of laying the
bundles to prevent slipping ; and ut timou
it ia not auflicicnt. When auch is the
case place a flat board against the ofi'oiid
ing bundles , and stay the board with in
clining props , if below the bulge ; or loan
poles against the sheaves , if above the
bulge.
The second point to bo observed in
the building of a stack ia to ohupo the
bundles : that is , put the butts in that
position which will suit the shnpo of the
stack. While standing in the ohock the
sheaves have inclined inward to a com
mon centre. This has given the butts n
diagonal shapo. This makes ono side of
the sheaf longer than tlio other. Below
the bulge lay the long side of the bun
dle up ; nbovo the bulge lay the long side
of the bundle down. When the bundles
are laid in this way the stack is smooth ,
as it should bo ; nut because it looka
nicer , but because there are no slmrp
projections to catth the rain and carry it
into the stack. Tin's may seem like
arnnll paint but itis of sufficient impor
tance to bo observed by the man who
desires to put up a stack which will preserve -
serve the grain.

Mr. Kasson , of Iowa , who has been n.
pointed to the Berlin mission , and who
lias become quite well-known the country
over through his long service in cong-
rcsa , is a grass-widowor and has boon re
cently a suitor for the hand of ono of the
daughters ( of Secretary of State Frollng-
huyaon. It is understood that ho was b
rejected because the lady did not want to
live in Iowa. That he waa rejected is
probably true , hut the reason given for it
probably a fiction Mr. Kasson , be
sides boiiiu a grass-widower , is not young
nor Imnilsome , and the circumstances of
hia first wifo's separation from him were
not of a character to impress favorably
any possible eecond-conuir. The original
Mrs. Kasaon now lives in St. Louis and
Mrs. Itufus J. Lackland , of thnt city.
HIT husband is the prcsidentof the Boat-
man's ' Savings bank , ono of the largest
financial institutions of that city , nnd is
man of wealth. Her brother is Uov
Dr. Elliott , president of Washington Un
iversity. Mrs. Lackland belongs to a
family distinguished for high intellect
uality , and is herself a Indy of very supe
rior < mind. She is now qulto gray , but
n remarkably attractive face , her
oycs being particularly largo and bril
liant. Shu is the loader of the Washing
