LONDON'S NEW TELEPHONES.
THE WAY IN WHICH THE NEW TELEPHONES WILL WORK.
In a few months, if all goes well, says a recent Morning leader, we Londoners will be calling "Are you there?" over a system of telephones that belongs to the State insteart of to a monopolist company, a decade behind the rest of the electric world.
The method of working chosen by the Post Office is the most up-to-date possible. The witch room is being fitted up by the Western Electric Company. That is an American con cern, and it is inatter for reflection that the authorities did not cross the Atlantic for love of placing orders there, but because they could not obtain what they wanted of an English firm.
To begin with, whether your new post-office instrument is of the wall or desk pattern, you won't have to turn a handle to call up the exchange. The simple lifting of the receiver from its book does that.
DONE WITH A GLOW LAMP. Immediately you move your receiver an electric glow-lamp flashes out beside your number in the switch-room. Then the operator among whose batch" nf 180 subscribers you find yourself answers your call, and im- mediately the, brass peg is inserted to accom plish this your lamp goes out.
Having been told what number you require she connects you with it and rings. From that moment until the man you want to talk with takes his receiver from the hook a second glow. lamp is alight; but when he moves his receiver it goes out.
Having found that your conversation has really begun, the operator presses the meter key," and records one conversation in the account of the originating subscriber.
THE DEADLY METER.
The conversation meter" is ne innovation in this country. It is unlike a gas meter (as it is unlike your conversation), because it cannot
lic.
་
There is in be one in the new Post Office Central Exchange for every subscriber. There are four little discs to every number, and these record all, the conversations initiated by each particular subscriber, registering up to 10,000.
The action is reinaleably simple. An electro- magnet, energised by the operator's pressing of the meter-key, raises a little weight attached
in a ratchet, and lets it fall. That moves the unit's hand one tooth-the rest is a clockwork system of graduated wheels.
AND THE GLOW FLASH
But back to our subscribers, whom we have left talking..
When the conversation is finished and both receivers hang up two glow lamps side by side flash into life. Then the operator knows that she may safely disconnect. And as she does so the two lamps are extinguished.
In addition to the conversation meter, there is a "service meter,” which tells how many conversations, each operator has attended to.
Thus, if one set of 180 subscribers (the number under the control of one operator) are infrequent tisers of the telephone and those of a neighbouring operator have among them some who are perpētially calling or being called, the two sets of numbers may be rearranged and the work of the two Indies equalised,

The Hamburg correspondent of the L. Express writing under date April 16th says
A dark veil seems to be spread at present over the German Empire. In every direction earnest and thoughtful faces are met with, and nowhere is read confidence felt. Nor in such feeling of disquietude without foundation. Nature itself has disappointed our population in the matter of the weather. At present, al-Havermeyer, F. C. though we are in the middle of April, it is quite like winter. Rut this is not the only reason for the gloomy atmosphere overhanging Ger- many. The business markets of late have constantly gone down, and that too in such a measure that even the best reputed and must employed establishments have been obliged to dismiss numbers of their old and experienced warkmen. The large cast-sieel factory of Krupp, the "cannon kine" at Essen, has al ready dismissed 5,000 men, or one-fifth of the whole number, for want of orders. What such signs indicate is easily understood, if it is borne in mind that Germany at present is an indus- trial state, and we fear that the saven poor years which are to follow the seven good ones are about commencing on the Continent.

A recent number of British -Mining says — With the expected output at Sydney, B. Candor, A. (Sailor) the works to be erected at Sault Ste. Marie, the
Iron industry of Canada will, within the next year, be upon, a par with that of Sweden, country that has taken many centuries of steady Kirkpatrick, M. C. work to bring its trade to its present propor- Kinn, C. H. tions in point of tonnage. This will bring Kelper, G. Canada up to the third place in the list of Iron- producing countries. The first place is held armants, S. by the United States, whose output is increasKirk, R, ing enormously. The United Kingdom holds Kelton, W.
Kuhn, F.
the second place, with Swedan third. The Kneuzle and Streiff other principal countries of the world, in Kukman, G. W. relation to this industry, stand in the following Knapp, r, W. order: Spain, Russia, Italy, Germany, France, Kobruson, C. J. Canada, Belgium, and Austria-Hungary. The Lawring, C. C gap between Sweden and the United Kingdom London, H. J. is so great that there is no reason to expect Lester, H. Canada to overcome it for a very long time but she may hope to secure and hold the third position, and to keep constantly approaching the second. Iron is in greater demand from year to year, so that no fear need be entertained Loher, A.

To the average reader Iceland is as little known as he interior. of Africa: Yet Iceland is a famous country, famous for the achieve- ments of its heroes, for the poetry and prose it has given the world, and, above all, for the education that pervades all classes.
The love of learning' is almost a mania in Iceland, it is the rarest thing in the world to mset a native who cannot read and write,

Another admirable trait is the remarkable honesty, which prevails in Iceland. Crime it. almost unknown; the people never lock their doors, and but two cases of thieving are known to have taken place within many years.
One was an Icelander who had broken his arm, and whose family in the winter ware Chao, H. Y. suffering for food. He stole several sheep, and Crane, E. H was finally detected. He was at once put Cox, Miss M. J. under medical care for his injury, and in time Cotewall, H. be was given work. This was his punishment: Darell, Miss F,
