Thos. A. Edison on Thursday com
pleted arrangements to show his latest
invention, the kinetograph, at the
world's fair. The kinetograph Is a re
markable device, but it is not very use
ful. It is an instrument by which
every gesture of a speaker may be pho
tographed and at the same time every
word be utters is recorded on the cyl
inder of a phonograph. The two de
vices are then concerted, the photo
graphing apparatus and the phono
graph. By throwing the photograph
on a tcreen and starting the talking
machine the words and gestures of any
speaker can be reproduced. The effect
produced Is that the figure on the screen
is doing the talking. The deception is
said to be very clever, New Orleans

J. S. Tulbott and C. F. Wheeler are
in this city from Independence in the
interest of a new line of railroad that
is proposed to be built from Indepen
dence to Salem. The original Idea
was to build the road via Dallas, but
the gentlemen say that the Dallas
business men took so little interest In
their scheme that they now propose to
build from Independence to Salem
direct. These gentlemen represent
$75,000 that stands ready to go Into
the Investment and they will ask a
like amount from Salem. They want
to put in a first-class Btandard gauge
road to cost $150,000. The idea Is to
extend the line eventually up the
Luckiamute to Falls City. Messrs.
Talbott and Wheeler will spend sever
al days in this city among the busi
ness men and property owners in the
interest of the proposed line. Salem
