Mr. ISdlson hoi had no sleep for thirty-six hours nnd durlnf thosoventy-tvvo hours before this ho hat closed bis eym for Ion than six. Still hi looked at fresh n * n duhy when the mornlni sun strike' ; the dotv on Its petals nnd thi sparkle of his oyoi and the luu h which shook his frame from timoto tlmo were tbosi of n boy.

These spots were having n kind n polk-a-dot d.inco up urn ! down his irrcnt ctuwt. They went It ) nnO out botwcofl his cold studi , nnd some were stnhis of yellow and others of wax and molted brimstones. An odor Ilko that of the hell broth of Macbeth's wilchei came from the chemicals in the room and all of the sur roundings showed the simplicity ol ts on tier. During th'cso invcn- tivo periods Kdisou sleeps in 1 Is laboratory and his meals nro sent from his maKniflceiit homo at Lolowcllyn park. Upon u plain table cov ered with brown paper lay the remains of his breakfast. These were the bones of two mutton chops , the crumbs of a muflln and a glass fruit can in the bottom of which was a llttlo coffee of tbo sanid brown color as that in the srloss boil do It out of which Mr. Edi- BOII had evidently ilruti'ruii ' Instead of u cup. In ono corner of the room was a washstnnd with a couple of wo\l \ used towels over it ana tnc remainder of the spuco was taken up with bottloi , machines nnd other articles of an experimental kind. The room in which Mr. Edison nloani whan at the laboratory , is qulto as simple , nnd bis bed Is a. folding nrniiiRomont which you could buy anywhere for f J5. Still this laboratory told must cover several acros. Its original cost must have been moro than h.iU n million dollars , and It takes rnoro than $100,000 n year to run It. It Is the most complete laDoratory.in the world , nnd no Inventor in history has over had anything llku unto it. In its storotoom , which by the way Is bigger than any country church in the United States , Mr. Edison has pieces of every known material subitanco from , as ho says , a spool of cotton to the eyeballs of a United Smtos senator. Ho has everything from niosi of Iceland to the hlp- ponotamus tooth , nnd ho has pieces of ovorv variety of vogotatile , animal and mineral substances , so Unit ho dee ? not have to go out of his laboratory for anything. Thorn are moro than 125,000 dlfTordnt articles In the storeroom , and sonic of them cost us high as $1,000 mi ounce. Ktllson'H IMiotoriipli Gallery.

Mr. Edl on , " said I , "tha the inventions or the next lltty vcars will b ( equal to these of tbo last llf tv.1' "I see no reason whv tliov should not , " replied plied Mr. Edison. "It seems to me though that wo nro ut the beginning ° f inventions. Wo nro discovering now principles , now pow. crs and now materials every day and no one can predict the possibilities of the future , Take electricity. When wo get olectricitj direct from coal , a lump as big us this tuniu lor will light and heat a whole bouso for hours aud a basket full would run a lactorv n whole day. In the generation of steam wo onlygot 14 per cent of the energy of the coal. In electricity wo get 00 per cent. When wo get our elec trical power direct from coal n few hundred pounds will carry you across the Atlantic nnd u few bask ets full will take n railroad train fron > Now York to San Francisco. 1 believe this to be ono of the great problems of the future and I hnvo no doubt but that It will bo solved. I have been worklnv on it tor years but I haven't got It yet. When It docs come It will revolutionize ovorythipg. It will cheapen everything nnd H will bo the greatest in. vcntion of modern times. As it is now wo have to burn the coal to got the steam and the steam gives us the power which runs the dynamo and produces thu electricity. "Will wo over have ( lying machines } " "Yes , I thinlcso , " was the reply , "but it will not bo on any of tho. plans now proposed. I have a different idea Ir. regml to such matters , but I am not ready to oxperi.nent with them yot. " "How about the making of fuel from water ? " "I don't believe it will ever pay , " replied " Mr. Edison. "Water is the asbis"of nature. There is nothing more Ilko ashes. It took an ouormous dogrco of he\t to maKii the hydro gen and the oxygen combine to make water and it takes a great degree of heat to revivi fy them. I don't ueliovo it will ever bo com mercially protitiiblo , " Ills Tcloltoiiu | to tlio Sim. The conversation hero turned to the tele phone and I askou Mr Edison as to his telephone - phone to the sun. Tills telephone experi ment is the biggest thing of the Kind in naturo. There is in the New Jersey moun tains a vast mass of iron u mile lonir and of about the sumo width which runs straight down into tbo earth for a number of miles. "The telephone , " said Mr. E'lUon , ' 'is you know made by running a wiru around thu top of a magnetic bar and ttiis machine ) when charged with electricity enables us to register the sounds which como In contact with it. " "We nro using this immense natural bar of iron of the New .lorsov mountains as the basis of our telephone. Wo have wound miles of wire about its top and have formed an luductivo circuit in whinh wo will hnvo the most powerful of electric current . Wo expect through it to boar thu noises made on the sun and the explosions which are sup posed to bo constantly going on tlioro will , I believe , within a fmv weeks bo hoard right bore. Wo havu been working at thu matter for aotiiB time and have it just about ready for testing. " A Whisper Around Iio AVorhl. 'Wo have by no moans rc.ichoil the perfection ' fection of the telephone , " Mr. Edisou'weut on. "Improvements are being imulo all ilio time and the day will como when overyotio will hnvo his telephone. Long dlatuncu tele phoning is growing und thu only restriction of the possibilities of tbo telephone is in the sympathetic contact of the electrical wire with the rest of naturo. It a hlnglo wire could bo placed so high above the earth that It would not touch the mountain tops , you could whisper around thu world ami you could sing a song in London and havu It heard In Pakln. Wherever wo got , the wire comparatively free from contact with the earth distance seems to mane no dilTorunco and on a government line 1,0 JO miles long over a treeless country in Ari/.ona wo got u bettor tolophouia connection than wu do now between Now York und Philadelphia If wo could have a telephone from the e-arlh to thu nun I moan a wire wo i-ould beml sounds tliero with perlcct ease , and with the phonograph graph , were our language universal.o could raako a speech here und huvo It recorded nnd reproduced in any of the great planetary bodies. " 'Iha I hero asked Air. Edison ns to the phonograph graph and ho told mo that a large number of thorn wore in use , and that ho believed they would bo eventually used everywhere. Ho took me but into his laboratory and showed mo his last invention in eionneciion with thu phonograph which bo calls by the iinmo of the kiuotograph and which Is almost as won- tlorful as tha phonograph itself. With the take of 1'attl's phonograph you can a song from tbo lips of tlio diva and can reproduce ) It before an audience lu nil Its Intensity and beauty a year later ami u thousand mlloa iwuy. By the itlnotograph with tbo aid of n itoroopticon jou can throw upon n screen a picture of Pttttl just ns she looked and acted it thu tlmo she vus singing the song , and ono sf the great exhibitions of the future- will bo : ho reproduction of great speeches and .songs , n this way.

These photographs are taken on a long itrlp of gelatine Him and lu reproducing them .boy arc made to revolve as fust before tho. jyo as whou they wore taken. The rmult 13 , bnt the eye does not see the forty-six photo- ; ruphs but It sees only the ono with the mo- .ions or gestures of tbo num.

I asked Mr. Edison as to the prollts of the ihonograph.

That's * tha moi , expensive material I Imvo over heard of , don't know whether ho will eVer recover i not but the phonograph will eventually pu and pay well. " I'JIcotriulcy nnd the NowHpapors. Mr. Edison take * nrldo In having been newspaperman. Ho likes to talk of tbo dm when ns a boy ho edited and printed tli Ornnd Trunk Herald. Ho tolls mo ho wns newsboy on the train wuoii ho did it and b believes It Is the only newspaper that hn ever boon published on n newspaper trait Ho ran It for moro than a your and by virtu of it ho says ho is now a member of the No' ' York Press club. Ho talked with mo ns t the newspaper reports which ho sent ot while n telegrapher nnd told mo that th worst copy ho over bundled was that c Oeorgo M. Bloat of the Cincinnati Enquire ! Ho said : "I was n tclozrnnh operator nt Cinctiinnl at the tlmo ho was editor of the Enquire nnd hit copy sometimes canio into thu oflo ! < I remember ono piece which none of us coul translate and wo sent It biicit to tbo Enquire onico nud had them copy It foru ? .

" "Such a thing will never happen , " said J "when newspaper reporters turn in the ! copy on the photrograph. " "No , " replied Mr. Edison , "it will not The phonograph and the telephone are nov considerably used In newspaper worlc nnd w may bavo newspaper phonographs In th future , and newspaper pictures may bo sen from ono part of the country to the other bi electricity. " "Will it over bo possible , Mr. Edison , ' said f , "to take the page of a newspaper n sot up in Now York and telegraph such i photograph of it to the other great cities o the country as could bo placed ut once on at etching plate , nnd ono setting up In this wai do for the whole country I" Mr. Edison tbought for n moment nud thor said , "Yes , that could bo done , though : don't know whether it would ue > profitable mid tbo day may also come when a man sit ting nt a typesetting machine In Now Yorl may by tupping the keys of a typewriter sol up the press dispatches hy moan ; , of similui machines in every newspaper olliciin Hie United SUtes. There Is no doubt * but till ; could be done now , and when wo have per feet typesetting machines our press tel pgraphors can do the setting up of their owi dispatches. " Tlio Iron Fields of Now .Icrsi-y. Mr. Edison's now processes of iron rcduc tion have brought a vast deal of now ore intc the market. Himself .md his partners have secured miles of iron territory in tlio n.ouu tains near his home , and Mr. Edison .say ? ' there nro SGO.OOO.UOJ worth of iron ore 'in sight. The llr.st order taken by the compan.v was for a 100,000 tons of ere n'l $ " > per ton , and ho tells mo thai they can produce some of the linest iron to bo cotton in the ' United States righl here within nn hour of'isew York. Tnoy not only can produce it but are producing it , and they have enough ere before .them to last thorn for many years. Ho Miowed mo an .instrument for determining where iron is. II was shaped Hko a compass and a needle upon It points to figures showing the character ol the inagnoticoro pelow it. This Is known bj the dip ot the needle , ami Mr. Edison's 'sur. veyors now mnko nmpi of mining countries and tell just about where the veins of iron ere arc located. 1 saw such a nup of a county in Michigan end it located with certainty the various deposits. Tiioro is no elouut but tberu is n bjg fortune in tho.io Now .lorsoy iron mines. They have boon workca fo't years , but heretofore the rorc4md to contain .0 per cent of iron or it. was no good. By Edison's process if it contains 'J5 per cent it pays well. . I'.dison'.s Now 1 It'otrieItoiul. . Before , 1 left I looked at Mr. Ellison's street railroad , upon which nee working. Tbo car and track uro in tbo yard surround ing the laboratory , and thu invention 1 un derstand is ready for use. It is intonde-d for largo cities which will not permit the use ol the overhead wire.

Its 'locomotive will huvu I.OUO horse power and It will talco up the electricity from a rail which runs along through the ci'titcr of the track and between the two rails on wmch the en move. It will not DO u.xnon- slvo to put down und Mr. EJuon sav.s the streets will not have to bo torn up as they are for the cabin. HP bollovoi it will bo tbo street railway for cities of the near future and sayf ho is making the invention for Mr. Villurd , The Stoiu.iul ) .1 i IKMIIIC il fi bnrntnry.

" "How about your stomach , " said 1. "Thomas Carlyle you know sav-s ho did not know ho had n stomach until ho was 'J. ' . How about you ) Do yea know that you have a stomach ! " ' Vc.s , " replioJ Mr. Edison with a iuuzli , 'I am Ilko ( Jarlvlo in that I have discovered the fact. I llnd that 1 have indigestion some- limes. but 1 can easily curu myself. I do this by chiiign of diet.

Coioni-1 Brown cb'anood to bo passing along the line , and the men called his utton- , ton to this confederate marksman , so fright- ully accurate nnd so hard to ilnd with their Juliets. They hau becti lired at. and bud ired in return , till tbo-atluir had become monotonous. Thu colonel listened to their statements , ben tnuing a soldier's rl'lo ho stopped iromplly on the banlfund stood motionless is u statue in full view , it seemed an act of nadnuss , but the gallant Johnnie understood t IH It was intended , nnd accepted It us a lersosal challuuge' . He. too , steppeJ promptly rom behind ills cover. IVith mon uulctcly raised their rifles and Ircd , the bill of Johnnlo uoliig nlnrmlnplv cluso to Colonel Brown , who cooly handed town his gun to bo lo.idoJ , whilu his ndvor- ary , with nil spued , loaded his. Evidently 10 was an e-xpurt in lo.idiiifr as in llriug. for 10 again obtained thu lirst lire , after taking .ho moat delitiorato aim nt the living statue , i'ne bullet had just pnsie-d when thu Colonel ook aim , Johnnlu keeping bis position , busily naMnz His piece. Neither shot produced ny oltui't. It was steel to stool , bravo mon looking tralgbt and calm into the lace of death. Jn- ensu interest in the drama stopped the liring long tbo whole linu , wullu a wo bilencod very lip. Johnnie , for the third tltno , gained tholirat lire , when Colonel Brown luvoled , aimed and llred at his adversary , who was again loail- inir. The bullet nissod across the river , and , without any sign whatever , the gallant sol dier sfoppcd back under his cover , and the strangely dramatic duel was ended. If it be true that a man has a higher re gard for another alter lighting with him , Colonel Brown , no doubt , felt a touch of sorrow row on learning that Johnnie's rillu was never moro hoard ; and thn station at tbu bout tree was thereafter vacant. Mono-wall .1 .tc'UMin. Uov. Henry M. Field , D.D. , writing of Stonewall Jackson in Harper's Magazine for November , says : Thu midsummer of this year witnessed a scano in the inouutalnYof Virginia that re called the events of ti past generation. ' The 21st of July was the thirtieth anniversary of Bull Run , whcro north and south mot in the hrst roaljiatilu of the war , for the engage ments in West Virginia , near the Ohio , hardly rose to the dignity of battlos.But Bull IJuu was a conflict of armies , lu which both bides took their Hrst lessons in wurand out of which came at least one grdat soldier , who stood BO llrmly while the battle raged around him that others who were broken and disnayed took cour.igu ns they biiw lii.i unshaken Mlumn standing "llkp a stone wall , " fiom which ho received the name of "Stonewall" lackson. This was the hero TO whom a mon ument wns now to bo unveiled in Lexington , whcro bo Is burled. Of those who blood linaiuo bun on that bloody day , thirty yuars igo , almost nil had followed hini to the , 'ravu ; but the survivors , tbo shattered ivrociis ot war , came fcpm far and uuar to do iionur to him who once led them to buttle ) , md wept with overpowering omotlon at thu 'ravu of their buloved commander.

All this Is mut ter of history which It Is not necessary to recall , nor to follow the tireless soldier to Harper's Ferry , to Antletntn , to Fredorlcks- burg and Chancellorsvlllo , where ho fell nt the very moment that the great Hank move ment , which bo had conceived nud conducted , had struck the union army with a shock from which It reeled ana could not recover , but sought safety on the othur side of the Happahniinock , which It had crossed only a few days before In all the eonfidonco of victory. This Is n record of contluuod suc cess of which It is hard to llnd another example - ample in our own history , or , indexed , In any other. T//.V .4Xi .voir. Clinmltrr'f Journal. In fables of. the Golden Ago No more delight our poets seek , For , now tlio North has waxed so sago , The Goth Is wiser than the Greek. Before the might of Lomug's powers , The myths and wisdom ot iho Past llavo perished like Iho Autumn Mowers Be f ere the icy northern blast. Tbo scalpel nnd the mie-roscopo Demand the laurui of the lyre ; Alas ! what later bard can hope To wake for these ino nnulent lire ! Sweeter it Is to shut our eyes To nil that wo havu lived among. And suck in dreams the sunny skies And hills th .t saw iho birth of song ; The tlmo that hold the poet's nnmo As holy , and the native vale Heard sweeter notrs than over came From any thorn-strung nightingale ; When every youth whoso soul wai moved To poetry from early years , Was uy the muse well beloved , And held in honor of his peers ; And every maid with mind above The level of tlie vulgar throng , Was priestess of the queen of love , Or sybil of the lord ot song.
