Thomas A. Edison has decided u|wui
" kinetophone " as the name for his
latest contrivance. It is a combina
tion of the kinetoseope and phono
graph, and its purpose is to show
sound as well as action. The new
machine resembles the kinetoseope
closely, with the addition of rubber
tubes and ear pieces, by means of |
which the voices of the j>ersons depict
ed in the kinetoseope can be heard.
In other words, if the kinetoseope
represents the actions of a play on thf
stage, the kinetophone supplies the
voices of the adors, so that one may
get tihe whole scene in mimic repre
sentation. It is hard'y conceivable
that such an invention can be any
thing more than a toy. Xo useful pur
pose can be subserved uy the kinei.v
phonc, so far as can be judged at tho 1
present time. The reproduction of!
figures, accompanied by the phono
graphic imitation of voices can I
hardly be of any practical utility.
The kinetograph will be, we should
say, a good deal like the magi'- lan-j
tern, a feature at evening entertain
ments of a popular kind, but limited
' to that narrow sphere.
