TIIE OMAHA DAILY BET!: SATURDAY, ATTtIL 25. 100.1. 18 f LAVISH TELEPHONE SERVICE (fintio Antotrutio Plant Brig Installed in the Chieago Exohanga, THE HULO" GIRL DISPENSED WITH laa'jraasoat by Whteh Caller Haka Their Owa Coaaeetfoa Meaa at laalcatlaa? Baa? Call faa4 Break. The perfection of the automatic ex change la telephone Improvement which will be accepted aa matter of fact achieve, roent, but aaoclated with any other Induetry thla great Innovation would eauee wide apread comment and discussion. The con servatlv electrical men and doubt era of the practicability of automatic exchanges. saya the Philadelphia Record, have been quite allenced by the aucceaafut operation of thoae In Fall River and New Bedford, In thla country, and In Berlin abroad. The latter waa Installed under the auspices of the .government and while merely an ex- perl mental exchange, was so aueccaaful that It ,was purchased by the government and aoled to the Imperial telephone ay tem. The other exchange named have been In aervlce for several years and are quite as popular as the usual type. If not mure ow Attention has been called to the remarks t1 preparations that are being made ta Chicago for the Installation at an auto matlo telephone system on a larger acale tnaa nae heretofore been attempted or deemed pcealble. It was alleged that the automatic system might operate In small fxchangea, but when it became necesaary to multiply switches to the extent required In a large metropolitan exchange, the coat would be prohibitive. Contrary to exoecta tlon, the Chicago company haa expended Its money lavishly in the beat underground construction, going to the expenae of under mining the entire downtown aectlon of Chicago with tunnels to carry the com pany's telephone wires. In many instances these tuncels are large enough for miles at a stretch almost to permit their usa for electric railways, and It was hinted at first that this was the ultimate purpose of the projector. Offany miles of underground tunnel, meaa tiling seven feet six Inches high, and six tjMt wide in the widest part, ara ready to receive the telephone cables. A tunnel car ries the wires under the Chloago river. template th erection f a central ex change to take 25,000 additional lines, the present building being used as a branch. The system Is far enough advanced to war rant the claim that It will be In operation some time this year. At th bualeit time of operation it la estimated that one man at central will be required to tend 1.004 switches, replace heat colla. trace out trouble, etc. The claims made for the automatic sys tem ire that It Is cheaper to operate, as the expense of th exchange payroll Is reduced to almost nothing; that the con nections are secured In less average time than with manual exchangee, and that ab solute privacy of conversation Is secured. Operatlaa; th 'Fkoa. There is a dial under the transmitter containing a number of finger holes, tea In all. representing the digits from sero to nine, and hence allowing any number to be formed. The dial, which is locked while he receiver Is on the hook, revolves on a Iplrot. To call a number, say 23-24, the t Anger Is placed In the No. I hole, and the Mai revolved until It reaches a stop pro vided at the bottom. On releasing the dial it returns to normal, being actuated by a spring. Thla ODeratlon la cessivefy with 2. 2 and 4, sfter completing which a puah button Is depressed which rings the bell of the subscriber wanted. The Impulses that are sent over the line are selected by very Ingenious switches at the central, and by a system of elimina tion all pbonra are cut out except the on desired.' About a second Is required for the manipulation of each digit on the dial. N "Hell Girls" Her. The most unique part of the system is at the central exchange, where banks of awttches similar to the on shown meet the lew instead of a room full of busy tele phone girl. Withal, It la not very large, only measuring IS Inches la height 4V4 inches In depth and 4 Inches In breadth. At ue lower part of th figure will be seen tore bank of contacts, containing 100 la each group. Th vertical rod seen at the center of th device has both a rotary and a vertical movement. Th two lower banks serve only to select th ten and. unit digits that is, the last two digits of th num ber. When 24 Is called by some subscriber on his dial, the rod is lifted vertically by the first movement, which senda a current over one aide of the two-wire circuit, thus raising the rod step by step to th proper row of contacts in this Instaaos two. The succeeding movement of the caller's dial sends the current over th other side of th circuit, and this by means of controlling electro-magnets rotates th rod until th reelect arm reaches No. 4. thus effecting til- desired connection. When the caller hilngi up his receiver after th converse tloVi. current Is seat ever both wires and th selector rod falls back Into normal po si tlon. To secure connections In the hundreds and thousands an extension of the same prin ciple Is provided. It has been found that ten trunk lines are sufficient for sack 100 Subscribers. Th connecter switches ar arranged In groups of 100 each, giving fa c'Ules for 1.000 subscribers. When the siltacrlber calls a number la th hundreds, sTW 224, th first movement of th dial selects through th selector switches, ons of th lines feeding the 300 group, and th following movements of the dial complete the connection, as already described. In 10,000 exchange there la simply a further extension of ths same system, the initial movement selecting th proper thousand group, and so on as before It will immediately be asked: Suppose the called 'phone Is busy? Probably thla - was on of the first probloms encountered by th inventors of th system, and they hav solved it most adequately. Under such circumstances th calling subscriber re elves a buxs In his wn 'phone, which In dlcates that the wire la buay. The upper bank of eontacta In th selector switch I connected with this operator. Even the contingency of the subscriber leaving hi 'phone off th bock, so tbst he cannot be reached by other subscribers. Is provided for, la such a case, if the subscriber does not answer, and there la ao busy signal th "trouble man" la notified, and he sets a "howler" la operation, which calls the attention of the negligent subscriber t the fact that bla Una Is -out of service. This "howler" devio merely vibrate th diaphragm of th receiver very strongly and rapidly, making a peculiarly chares teristlo sound. But there Is still the ground and short circuit to be taken care of. How Is a subscriber to notify central 1 that bla wire Is la trouble? As a matter of fact. It t not necessary, aa the con dition of the line tells Us own story and calla the attention of th repairman to tke difficulty. This Is accomplished very Ingeniously. When a short circuit occurs an excess current Is allowed to paas ' through the selecting switches in the cen tral exchange. This current blows a heat coll. which operation releasee a spring and makes another contact, thereby lighting aa Incandescent lamp on a "tell-tale" board, jlch indlcatee to the operator the par tXcular group of switches la trouble, after hich It Is comparatively easy to locate d make necessary repairs. 'The' Chicago plaa la to Install telephones wherever poaatble aad to mak a charge except for each call actually completed, which ar billed at th rat ef ( cents each. All calls la excess of 1(5 per an num ar free, aad la residences th min imum charge of $60. with the abolition of the central girl It la necessary to add aiaddltlonal device for registering calls eHipleted. this being accomplished by a can-meter, not unlike a small cyclometer la appearano. Buay algnals ar aot reg istered by this device. Th preeent exchange provides for 10,- MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCES Naval Ofleer as! Others Who Have Vaalshed from Hoas aad Frleads. "The most remarkable Instance of disap pearance ever known," were the words used by a deteetlv a few days ago when speak ing of a case he was employed upon. It wss not a haphasard expression, nor wss It original, for It has been used of many In the list of those who hav mysteriously disappeared. A report of th commissioner of police of London recently noted that 174 men and women of that city had sunk out of sight of their friends In th year. Many person disappear every year In this city. On of th most remarkable cases of disappearance was that of Lieutenant Ed ward W. Remey of the navy, a brother to Judge Advocate General William B. Rlmey and Rear Admiral George C. Remey. The ast seen of him was when he wslked down the gangplank of the steamship Roanoke In New York on February 17, 1887. Every ef fort waa made to find him, but no trace was discovered. Had he been a man of irreg ular habits there might have been 'some suspicion as to the cause of bis disappear ance, but he waa a aober, straightforward officer, and no officer had a better record stood higher in the profession or waa more greatly esteemed Another naval officer who disappeared a few years sgo waa ex-Paased Aaslstant Engineer Richard H. Buel, an officer who had served in the civil war with distinc tlon. He started for Boston on December 20, 1889, after which no trace of him could be discovered. His father was the Rev, Samuel Buel, at one time dean of the Gen eral Theological seminary of this city. There are many who will recall Stillman S. Conant, one of Ije editors of Harper's Weekly, who started from his sanctum for his home In Brooklyn on January 16, 1885, and though search was made for him in various part of the United States and Europe, where he was reported to have been aeen, nothing about blm haa ever been learned. Thomas W. Fisher's disappearance more than ten years sgo attracted a great deal of Interest. He was a real estate broker in Washington, and, as was bis usual custom, he one evening went to Baltimore to vial the young woman to whom he was engaged. The couple became Involved in a dispute over a trivial matter, and the young woman declared their engagement oft. Mr. Flaber left th house, and after wandering about th streets for some time, left Baltimore for New Tork. H at once wrote to his former fiance, apologized for bis rude con duct and begged her for forgiveness, but she waa bent upon punishing him and did not reply to his letter. Fisher then left New Tork and went to Albany, from which place he wrote again to the young woman, saying that hs would not burden her again with bis petitions and that he Intended to commit suicide. The young woman then replied to bis letter, and asked hia for giveness, but the letter was returned with the stamp upon It, "Not found," and noth ing has been heard from the young man sine that day. Among other "mysterious disappear- ancea" are those of Dr. Richard C. Bran dele, William J. Fhllllps. a member of ths Produce Exchange; Alexander F. Oakey, a frequent contributor to Harper s Weekly and Harper's Magaxtne, and Wil liam M. Ranalje, a well known artist and architect of Syracuse, N. T. New Tork Tribune. SMOOTH DOUBLE TOUCH Uaht-Flnaered Artlat Emplala His System aad Pockets th Timepiece. The following story Is told of a down town merchant who died recently, a rela tive putting It In these words: "Mr. was slightly absent minded. On day on arriving home hs discovered that his pocket had been picked, his gold watch and chain having disappeared. An advertisement offering a reward for the return of the articlea and no questions asked was Inserted In the daily papers, aad In a few days a well-dressed stranger rang the bell at Mr. "s house. On being ushered In he produced the missing watch and chain and' received th reward for their return. Becoming somewhat In terested, Mr. asked th stranger how he had been so successful In abstract ing th timepiece without hi being aware of it. 'Why, that's essy enough,' ssld ths well-dressed man. 'Just put It on ss you had It that night and I'll show you.' "Without waiting to be coaxed. Mr. adjusted th watch and chain to his vest. Ths slick stranger Immediately proceeded to re-enact th pocket-ptcklng act, and. In leaa time thaa It takes to tell it, had ths jewelry again In his possession. " 'That's oertainly remarkable, ejacu lated Mr. . I'll be careful In the fu ture. "Without further parley th stronger was ushered to tbe door and took his departure, no attempt being made to restrain him. The mertchant, who aeemed overjoyed to have the watch, which waa an heirloom, one again la hia poasesslon, called the members of bis family together to tell them of his good luck. " 'Well.' remarked one, 'wher is ths watehr " 'Why here,' replied Mr. . un buttoning his coat. To bis amassment he suddenly remembered that the slick-looking stranger had failed to return the watch anl chain, and he, la hi eagerness to see bow th trick had been done, bad allowed th rascal to depart with both the reward and the heirloom."

It was left for one of the latter-day beauty teachers to discover ths Influence of sweet flowers upon the mind. And now that It has been bailed as a new discovery. women are aaylng that It la a wonder ao one ever thought of It before. If you stoo to think of It there is a eer- aln relation between tbe Bowers that grow in pots In your windows and your own nliits. And. whether unconsciously or not, you are affected In no email degree by the blossoms and their state of prosperity. If the flowers come out well and bloom as they should bloom, you are correspond ingly elated. The eight of them tran qullixes the nervea. Th odor soothes the temper. The very presence of the cheerful growing things makes you eon- tent with the earth and your lot upon It. And thla la felt, not only by you, but by every other woman. Have you not among your acqualntancea some dear, good, kind soul who revels In her window gsrden? In the winter It Is filled with roses, when all other windows star bleak and bar Into the sullen streets. In the summer It is twice as gay and the woman who at- ends the garden spot Is found perpetually hovering over the beds. By what has alwaya been considered a happy chance, tbe woman who revels In thb garden Is a creature of gentle soul. always cheerful, always kind hearted, ever charitable and endowed with every virtue from the beginning to the end of the chap ter. And now the beauty specialist eomes along and declarea that it la the influence of the flowers that trlngs all this about, and that all who would enjoy tranquility and cheerfulness must cultivate the plants. But Is not every woman who can culti vate plants. Lack o! spsc is one draw back, for. In the crowded limits of th city, it is not every house that can hav so much as a window garden. The window la In too much demand to be spared for gardening purposes. But th city womsn, the beauty spe cialist declares, can always buy a rose, or a carnation, or an Easter lily, or a bunch of violets, and she eaa Inhale the fragrance and benefit by it. There are all aorta ef acenta, and each haa its own Influence upon the mind. Just as there ar all kinds of medicines, each with Us own purpose in the anatomy of ths human body. Charm of th Rose. Th rose, for Instance, la Just the thing to promote good temper. The odor of the rose drives away nervoua headache snd rose water, highly acented with rose, ta a recognised remedy for this 111. The rose also allays nervousness, for Its odor is very penetrating, and, having cured the nerves of the head ao that It no longer aches. It gets la its good work upon tbe othor nerves of the body. Grad ually one becomes soothed and traa qulllied. Th woman who ta subject to nervous attacks should never be without a rose In her besom, in ber hair or la ber hand. Bh should have It alwaya where aha can ae It and enjoy Ita Invigorating Influeac upon the nervea VYU4 fisvatg aa; theix diatlaet miasloa In the schema of beauty getting. Tbe odor of the wild flower makes one unselfish. There is that about It which purifies the thought, makes the mind peaceful with the world, and brings about an unselfish frame of mind. Th woman who la soul-weary, the wo man who Is sordid in spirit and who re alises It; ths woman who is growing more and more tainted in mind and spotted In speech, from association with evil, can go out acd gather wild flowers and come back younger In spirit by ten years, and hap pier than she has been sines she can re member. Wild flowers do not keep long; they fade almost as soon as brought home; therefore, th seeker after bright spirits tnust go out often and com bom well laden in order that the Influence of wild flowers may be always with her. This ours has long been recognised In Vienna, where so maar good cures come from. Here tbe doctors send their patients out Into the fields to pick flowers, sure that they will com home bright and pretty of face, and old people are sent to rejuve nate their youth. Th empress of Germany was treated with the flower cur two seaaons ago aud laat year th princess of Wales took it. Th prescription was to go out early In th morning, gather planta until noon and then return to luncheon "? milk and gar den staff. No meat was allowed to th patients while they were taking th curs. RetrafclaT fiesta. A city girl who Is afflicted with a sombre spirit has rigged up a eoeey corner filled with plants and vines. Her couch, which Is a Turkish affair, rest upoa th floor, and at its bead there stand potted plants; over th top there dangle vines that fall from a banging basket which 1 suspended from the celling. In this floral bower ths young woman rests and, from Hs refreshing greenness and It soft odors, she draws such Inspira tion as she needs for ber dally work. The very handling of green leaves will help a woman back to health and spirits. This feeling is very noticeable around Christmas time, when tbe church is to be decorated with greens. The plney smell is very good for tbe nerves and tbe odors act with full medicinal properties upon the body. As a curs tor th blues, th first spring violets ar very effective, for they have a strong, sweet smell wMch acts as a tonic upon the heart. Violet odors, inhaled fresh from the flowers, will stlmulats ths organs and assist the digestion, so tbe beauty specialists declare, and, indirectly, they act upon th Complexion which de pends so eloeely upon the heart and the stomaeh. The Easter Illy baa a very strong odor, which, while not stimulating. Is very cheer ing. Tbe frsgranco Is good for the spirits, though It Is lees Invigorating upoa the heart thaa that of th red rose or th violet. But it Is good for th blue and ths woman who la troubled with blue can sniff th Easter lily and be pretty sur of recovery. Hyacinths and all of those sweet spring flowers are good for the spirits aad those who are troubled with lo t spirits can smell of thens and grow brlgl ' again. Rose wter, lavender fater, th perfume of bergamot and of 0.uJr ect plants. shrub and fruit, hav all beea used as eura-alls. But aow It Is ths natural flower that is selected for tbe remedy. And thts ar th ills which it cures Blues f spirit, by restoring aa even frame of mind. Nervoua headache, by driving It away and tranquillilng th nerve. Heart trouble, by stimulating th Heart aad th digestion. And the complexion Is benefited so that vouaa peewnes prettier aa prettier all under the good Influence of sweet smells. New York 8un.
