Sntelilowrra Surprised by Cltlsens Believed to Have Record. LONGMONT. Colo, April li Two men dynamited the safe in "the Postofflce here early this morning, but were surprised by citizens before they could gather much booty. Only two registered letters were secured, and these were later recovered from the men, who were captured In a lumber yard nearby. They gave their names as George Bradley and William Morrison, and claim they are from Pueblo. Officers here believe they may have had something to do with the recent holding up of a restaurant th?re, when two men, patrons of the place, were, shot and killed. Postofflce Inspector Sullivan thinks they are responsible for the numerous cases of safeblowlng that have occurred In Cali fornia and adjoining Plates during the past seveial months. HELD IIP CHICAGO STREET-CAR. Three Masked Men Make a Small Haul. CHICAGO. April li Three masked men held up a street-car near Garfield Park, In this city, at an early hour today and robbed seven passengers, the con ductor and motorman of about 800, a gold watch and some Jewelry. The hlghwiyroen boarded the car near Sacramento avenue. One kept guard on the front platform, one on the rear, while the third entered the car and at tho point of a revolver forced the occupants to give up their valuables. The only wo man on the car fell on her knees, praying for mercy. The matter was not reported to the po lice for sevenl hours, and no clue has been found to what is the boldest hold up of the kind in this city since Octo ber. 1S9S. Suspected of Murder. SENVER. April IX A Republican spe frora Newcastle, Vyo., says that Mr. and Mrs. John Church, formerly of Omaha, Neb., who have been missing from their ranch near Moorcroft. are believed to have been murdered. W. O. Clifton, with whom it is alleged the Churches had a quarrel, has been arretted, charged with their murder. Deaf Jin dr to Hear by Phonograph. New York World. By means of an Invention of Miller Reese Hutchinson, a young Alabamian. who recently was decorated by Queen Alexandra tor his efforts in behalf of the deaf, three children, deaf, dumb and blind, have been enabled to hear a pian ist play Sousa's marches, a phonograph repeat the sounds and the sounds of their own voices uttering the words "mamma." "papa" and "hello" In quav ering childish treble. The experiments were made at the lab oratory .of Mr. Hutchinson, and were wit nessed by many persons. The invention consists primarily of a transmitter, an earpiece and a small elec tric battery. By means of these Instru ments sound Is projected into the ear in a manner to simulate the auditory nerve. The volume of sound has nothing to do with the action o these instruments. The penetrating quality of the electric sound wave apparently disregards the mechan ism of the outer ear and. affects the Inner ear direct. The first patient brought out to try the effects of the Invention was Orris Benson, who Is blind, deaf and dumb. A piiysldan tried to make him hear In various ways, but all his efforts were In vain. The llttlo Instrument was then clapped to the lad's ear, the current switched on. and Mr. Hutchinson said In an ordinary conversa tional tone. "Papa." The youth worked his fingers rapidly in the sign language. The current was made stronger. The youth's" eyeballs were raised, and he smiled. Then he tried to repeat the syl lables, and in a weird treble cried, shrilly. "Pah-pah." WATCH SIZE OF A NICKEL. America's Latest Triumph Midgets Keep Good Time. New York Sun. The smallest watch yet turned out In this country has Just been put on the market, although few arc on aale yet. The new watch Is the size of a 5-cent piece. The smallest watch which Amer ican watch factories had hlthertoo suc ceeded in making had been ae big as a quarter so the new watch is looked upon as marking a distinct advance in the In dustry in this country, where watches have only been made for a little more than half a .century. Watchmakers also regard it as indicating that the time Is not far distant when Americans will soon overtake the Old World's watchmakers. the Swiss, In turning out watches of minute eize. The Swiss still make a watch 'smaller than the Americans, but the watch Just put on the market here by the two largest watchmaking concerns In this country will have the advantage over the Swiss watch that all the other watches made here have possessed, namely, that of being turned out In quantity. Under American methods the daily output In one factory is 2500 a day The new watch Is the result of months of patient endeavor by the watch makers and machinists. For every new rlied watch designed new machines have to be made, and as the eize of the watch Is reduced, by so much more must thess machines be made more delicate. The smaller a watch the harder It is to make. To make a watch half the size of another is Just twice as hard. When It la considered that in every watch there are IS! parts it will be seen what a task the watch machine experts had In de signing machines to make the parts for the new watch, many of them almost infinitesimal in size. When the machines are made the new watch can be turned out, as fast as the larger sizes. In watch making in the big factories another factor has to be considered In the production of a new watch that is smaller than those turned out before: this Is the ability of the hands employed to handle the parts. Half tho work of watch making In the btg factories is in educating the hands to handle the parts. It takes months to do this with every new watch that Is des'gned snd therein has lain the difficulty of Imitating the Swiss In the manufacture' of small watches by American methods. s In Switzerland the work is let out by the piece. A workman will make Just one part of a watch as his father did before him. In the biggest American factory, that of the Waltham Company, a watch Is turned out of the labor of 800 employes. It has been the boast of the Swiss that their tiny watches could never "be made by machinery, and It has been Just as much the endeavor of the American watch makers to show their Swiss rivals how sadly they underrated American Inventive genius. That Is why the new watch has been hailed with" en mncb pride. The Jewelers say that there will always be a demand for a watch smaller than the last one people could obtain, so be fore long a still smaller watch may ap pear. The demand for an American watch smaller than that of the J5-cent piece size has long been felt, especially since the custom came In of wearing chatelaine watches. The new watch Is designed for this, and also to meet the de mand of a new custom lately come into vogue with women, that of wearing a watch on a chain around the neck like a locket. Despite Its diminutive size, the new watch keeps as good time as the larger ones, and better time, the American watchmakers say, than do the miniature watches of the Swiss. But the Swiss still hold the palm for putting the works of a watch into the smallest compass. The smallest watch made In any number by the Swiss is what Is known In watch nomenclature as the "three-llgne" watch. It Is only the size of a man's finger nalL This watch is im ported here and is often put in pocket books and leather goods. Tne Swiss turn out even smaller watches than that, but they are regarded here as freak" watches. One of them Is a watch made to be set in a ring the size of the ordinary eeal ring. Fairly good time has been kept by one. Another watch made by the Swiss watchmakers is a watch lo go In the but tonhole, but It Is not as, wonderful as the ring watch. Though the dial Is as small, the works, hidden under the lapel of the coat, are larger. ANTI-SALOON LEAGUE. i Will Be Organized at Mass Meeting in Montavllla Tomorrorr Evening;. Montavilla is In a ferment over the movement to oust saloons and make a "dry" suburb of the place. A mass meet ing has been called for tomorrow even ing at Aylsworth Hall, to organize an antl-saloon league, and a redhot time is expected. Grlmss has been unable so far to secure a renewal of his license, but still runs his -saloon at the end of the Montavllla car line. Captain Schneider, who heretofore has been allowed to con duct his saloon without Interference, is also put on the defensive. The leaders of the anti-saloon movement are Rev. An drew F. Monroe, of the Methodist Church, and Rev. Gi Learn, of the Baptist Church, and they have succeeded In holding up Grimes' license. Now It is alleged that the friends of Grimes have raised a purse to test the legality of Captain Schneider's license. Captain Schneider has been an active member of the Montavllla Board of Trade, but Grimes has never been ac corded membership until the other night, when his name was proposed and vouched for by W. C; Aylsworth. a prominent mer chant. The leaders of the movement against Schneider are D. W. Butler. W. C Aylsworth and Mr. Beranger, and these raised the money to test his license, with the view to having it revoked on the grounds of illegality. Friends of Captain Schneider say they are not worried over this movement, and claim the captain will bold his license, and characterize the fight on him as inspired by spite and friendship for Grimes. "The. Methodists and Baptists have Unmet over a barrel, said a resident. "and bis friends don't like It. and have organized against Captain Schneider." There will be a big turn out at the mass meeting tomorrow evening, and the different phases of this reform ware at Montavllla will be wen aired by several speakers. Dr. William De Veny. who led tne ngnt -against Grimes a year ago. Is looking on this time and sawing wood. Gift to Xebraskn University.
