Electric Fencing.
Lovers of fencing will be interested
in an invention which has jnst been
tried in London, and which is said to
do away altogether with the difficulty
constantly experienced by an umpire in
judging hit3 between two equally
matched competitors. This end, it is de
clared, has Loen achieved by covering
th ' front of each jacket with fine copper
or brass wire gauze, and connecting this
with the adversary’s foil and an electric
bell (of the burglar alarm pattern) and
battery in the same circuit. It follows
that when a hit is mado the circuit is
closed, and the bell rings and continues
to ring until stopped by the person in
charge. A special arrangement in each
foil handle provides that only a direct
point produces a ring. Two entirely
electrically distinct circuit) are used,
each including a bell, foil and jacket;
flicks or blows or grazes produce no xc-
suit. The bells being of different tones,
and, moreover, placed on opposite side*
of the room, there is no difficulty in de
ciding who ha.- scored a hit, or, in case *
of almost simultaneous hits, who deliv
ered the point first. By a simple ar
rangement the wires passing from tho
batteries to the combatants’ oollars aru
kept well out of the way, however sud
den may be their movement» of advance
or retreat. In the Loudon trial six se
lected amateurs competed for a pair of
foils, and five bouts were fought. The
experiments were completely successful.
A military expert, Captain Hutton,
who was present, said that the device
would be of great value at such compe
titions as the royal military tournament
Fane rats In Yorkshire.
A funeral is still regarded as a very
high festival in rural Yorkshire. A poor
woman was lately heard complaining of
the fare provided at one she had at
tended. “A paltry concern,” she said,
scornfully, “Nobbut cakes and such
like. Now I’ve buried five, but I sided
’em nil off with ’am!” And this: A
farmer was assisting his daughter in the
choice of a dress, aud, seeing her fancy
incline to a blue one, said remonstrating-
ly. “Nay, Law. tak the black one, hap
pen tha might have the luck to be axed
to a funeral,’’ and his counsel prevailed.
What Tie Coaid Do.
James Payn tells a story of a certain
officer of a tran-atlsntic steamship who,
in th«» ats* nee of auy clerical passenger,
was asked, during a storm, to undertake
the duties of chaplain. He was anxious
*o oblige, but felt that he was altogether
un* qual to ecclesiastical operat ions—to
preaching or even reading. “I can,
however,” he said, “take up a coll«jo-
tion.”
