Instruments that will record and

been before the public in one form !
or another for twenty years. The i
most advanced type of the talking
machine is the Graphophone. In j
iKfhpopular mind there is consider- i
able misapprehension and confusion :
regarding the correct designation of !
these instruments. The words
j
;'Graphophone" and ''Phonograph"
being frequently misused as having
the same meaning. The name 'Pbo- '
lograph' was given to the first crude
xiodel which demonstrated thn t
sound could be recorded and repro j
3uced mechanically; but this early
model wa3 unsuited to practical j
?very-day use. The "Graphophone"
was the first practical talking ma- j
jhine, and the U. S. Patent Office !
aas put all similar inventions into J
Dne class, designating them "Grapho- i
phones."

Klondike's Trip to Hot Springs.
To the E litor of the Dispatch:
"I am with you once again, iny frier Is
No more my footsteps roam.
Where it began my journey ends
Amid the scenes of home."
01 the 9.h of May we started
for the Southern Biptist Convention
which met at Hot Sprii g*, Ark.
We feel ourselve3 very fortunate
indeed to go bo near the 4*Wild and
Wooley West" and get back home unseal
ped.
Most of the messengers from the
churches?Lhe Carolioias and Georgia?met
.in Atlanta and took a
special train called "The Baptist I
Special, and lelt Atlanta at -iociocu
p in , Wednesday, May 9:h and did ^
not change cars all the way to Hot
Springs, arriving there Thursday, a
May 10, at 8 o'clock p. m. v
The scenery along the way was v
justgraDd. The first ol j?ct of in
terest was ''Stone Muunteiu" in
Georgia, which must be seen in order e
to appreciate it. Here is stone
enough to build a "Chinese Wall"
Near DaltoD, Georgia, we ran through
i short tunnel in the mountain. g
We did not reach Chattanooga,
renD., until just about dark. The
lity was beautifully decorated with ?
arilliant electric lights which pre- ,
?ented a magnificent sppearance
o our jjlly crew of paseensen?ers.
Oa leaving here most of c
he passengers were well satisfied ^
vith sight seeing and betook themelves
to the land of dreams. Masers,
I believe, was the ODly man that
lid cot sleep and be was ccurtiDg ,
be Courier.
Over this part of the way, which
s the most historic, is passed io the
light. As the sun rose we were near- ^
ng Memphis, TenD., and all eyes
ooked just a little drowsy. After a
hort stop we were moving on again in
ipen view to the grand mystic old
Mississippi river.
A feeling of sadness came over the a
vriter as we were passing over the C
)ld stream. Here beneath ite gentle 0
Dosom sleeps De Sota, the first white Y
Q
man that came through the wilderness
to the "Father of Waters." 8
And up and down this river the Red
Man used to ply his canoe, dreaming
di his dusky mm, true and brave. ;
The train was just three minutes ^
crossing the loDg iron bridge which a
spans the river. Then for two
hours we were moving on through *
swamp3 that must extend at least
seventy-five miles from the river.
We are now in Atkansas and the
wide and broad prairie lands open
up before us, on which are feeding 1
numerous herds of cattle and flocks '
of sheep. Little Rick was reached '
in the evening of the 10th and after i
a short stop of 43 minutes we made i
our last dive for "Hot Springs." Just '
as soon as our train rolled up to the
Coactaw depot we were met by a
special committee who gave us all the
information we needed at one time.
Everybody was bustling around for
a place to spend the ni^bt. Hot 1
Springs is in many respects the moet <
remarkable city in the United States. <
Notwithstanding the place has only
about 15,000, there are 100 and about 1
as maDy boarding houses and restaurants.
The great Eastman hotel
accommodates about 2,000 guests.
There are many other very large
hotels. One man said, "By boarde

that has made the place famous the
world over is the hot water. There
are here seventy-two hot water
spiings. The water just as it comes
out of the ground will boil an egg
done in twenty minutes. Surely
this place must be near Tirer del
Fugo. The Tater has great medicinal
q nlities and const qantly many
people from all parts of the world
come here to take the hot water
baths and to drink the hot water.
Ujcle Sam foresaw the worth of
the waters and so he reserved all j
rights to himself, and thanks to him, '

ot cost him a cent. There are a
^reat many bath houses here. Mott
ill of the messeDgers took a course
)f bathing, which, by the way, was
free to the messengers. Klondike
was a little jubious, but at last from
i great need personally he was permaded
to ba submerged beneath the
lot water, and then came the worst
scrubbing he ever got.
Here you can not only see people
rom moat every place uDaer toe sun
jut representatives of most eveiy
rind of disease known to man.
The streets are crowded with these
jeople?some on crutches and rolling
shairs and some crawling on their
lands and knees. Some of them
iresent a most pitable appearance.
Yill some one of the Dispatch read
rs please tell me why these waters
:re hot. At one place there is a cool
vater spring and a hot water spring
ery close together.
One of the attractions of the place
3 "Happy Hollow." Here most
very kind of amusement is going

Klondike took a stroll up on the
zarks all alone and on the top sat al
own all weary and sadly looked
award grand old South Carolina than
'hich there is no greater. Boys, you jr
ad better learn this lesson as early p
s possible. The convention was the

more than once saved her life, and ?
