From there he was ordered to re- port to Boston to fill a vacancy. It was warm weather for the season when he started e and he donned 1 n trousers and a du By the time he reached Boston the wedther had got cold, raw and stormy. He didn't_care, and reported just as he was. Linen trousers and duster, topped by aslouchy, oroad-brimmed hat, weren't the fashion in Boston in the best of weath: and on a raw day a man with a limp,wet duster on ¢ t linen trouserssticking to his something to provoke llied into the superintendent’s nd said “‘Here I am The superintendent eyed d to foot and said: SWho are you?"

His ad- vent he created much merriment, and the operators guyed him loud novgh for him tojhear them. He didn'y care, though, Several hours later o New York sender, noted for his swift- ness, led at the office, and there was no one to take him. SWell, let that new anyway,”’ said the superintendent. Youn ison sat down, and for four hours and a half wrote out messages in a clear, round hand, stuck a date and number on them and threw them on the floor for the cffice hoy to pick up. The time he took in numbering and dating were the only moments he was not writing out transmitted words. Faster and faster and ter ticked the instru- ment, and faster Edison’s fingers the rapidity with which the me tumbling out and on the floor wt- tracted the attention of other operators, who, when their work was done, gath- ered around to witness the spe At the close of four hours and and the New York business, flashed from New York th lutation: ‘Hello? ‘Hello yourself,” ticked back Edison. ““Who the hell are you!” rattled into the office with a big H “Tom Bdison.” was ticked back, hake, Tow 1dison,” came over the east.

He left the Boston office to try and sell his multiplex system to the Western Union. e was a caveless-looking young fellow when he walked into the ofiice one day in New York and asked them if they wanted to buy a patent. “What is it?” they asked. “*Why, a means of sending two mes- sages over the sume wive in_ different directions at the same time,’ said the young inventor. “The Western Union officials lay baclk in their chairs and shouted in merri- ment. **‘Don’t bother us with such nonsense as that,’ suid one at last. Mr r L it to one of the rival mnumnu that existed at that time. They also laughed to scorn the idea of doing such a feat. “Well,” remarked the inventor, as Tie turned carelessly away, “if you ever get anything the matter of your plant that you can’t straighten out yourselves, send round for me.” *He took a little office and announced himself as an electric and telograph expert. Some time aftorward the com- ad trouble with its Albany wire. wire wasn’t broken, but wouldn’t and several days of investigation the part of tho company’s electri- ns only served to puzzle them the more. Asa forlorn hope they sent for young dison. “How long will you give me? he asked. "he manager laughed, X Jdison. \o manager laughed louder and told him he’d need longer time than that. Ldison sat down at the instru- ment, established communication with Albany by way of Pittsburg, told the Albany ofiice to put their best man at the instrument, and began a carcful and rapid scries of tests with all ou; rents of all intensities. He had his Pittsburg circuit instrument by his side and dirceted the Albany operator in each movement from his end. The steps were simultancous, and the Al- bany man telegraphod the resultof each test. Iidison compared them, made cal- culations, and in two and a half bours told the officials that the trouble sted at a cortain point he named on the line, and told them whut it w The officials tele- graphed the office nearest this point, and an hour later messages were trip- ping gayly between New York and Albany, The company made him their superintendent immodiately, Now he was in & position to commund respect and attention, He induced the com- panies to test his patents, and sold them rapidl He much improved his multi- plex tem, and sold that to the West- ern Union at ten times what he would have taken for it at the time they laughed at his first proposition, He simply informs the Western Union now when he has invented something new in telography.

In'the confl tion avis- ing from that catastrophe over #1,000 000 of property ana nearly twenty lives were destroyed, The explosion orig nated in the Washburn mill, ich at the largest flouring mill . The force of the concu: sion raised the roof of the mill 700 feet 1 the air, and cd an explosion in each of the other mill - Various theories were propounded at the time as to the cause of the explo- sion, The instances of the Teadeston mill disas’ tland in July, 18 the City Mills explosion at Port Dun- dus, Scotland, September, 1874; and at various flouring mills in Germuny were quoted to establish the fact that'in the ovdinary running of a flouring miil there existed a factor which was dan- gorous o account of its explosive na- ture. European and American scient- ists gave the matter deep study and made it a suject of discussion for some time after. The most generaily re- ceived opinion was that of Prof. Mac- adam, who had been called upon by the DBritish government to exam- ine into the causes of the Tead- eston Mills disaster. He said: “The chemical components of flour are combustible when burned in the or- dinary way, and are consumed with greater rapidity when diffused as a cloud through the air. Flour blown intoa cloud by a pair of bellows at once takes fire and burns with a vivid flash. By in- verting a box over a lighted candle nml blowing a cloud of flour into the interior an explosion is created which will blow up the box quicker and more effectually than gunpowder.
