MORE ABOUT WIRELESS
GKAFHY.
TELE-
We think we have before ex
plained to our readers in a com
prehensive way the nature of the
Marconi system of wireless tele
graphy. It will be recalled that
from some elevated point there
is a stroke by electricity that pro
duces a wave of ether which fills
space in inverse proportion to
the density of the air. There
fore the higher the point from
which the operation takes place,
the purer the ether is, that is the
freer from air, and the- fur
ther the ether waves will vibrate,
for it is like dropping a pebble
into the lake, which produces
waves that reach to the bank
But the point which we
started out to note is that Mar
cpni has made another wonder
ful stride in his invention. He
.has learned how to make wire
telegraphy keep its own
secrets. Heretofore any one hav
ing -an instrument could catch
the message sent out. . This
would be very undesirable in
time of wr, when the .enemy
might catch messages not intend
ed for his ears Even if given
in cipher it would be dangerous,
for there are experts at unravel
ing cipher telegrams. But Mar-
ionl has invented a kincr of m-
strument by which only certain
receiver's can respond. The send
ing p.nd receiving instruments
are especially adapted so thafc
nv one can get the message not
ceiver f of which if is intended.
Thais this great obstacle is over
come, but the delfcate ronstrucf-
lion oi ine insirumenwseems to
one not understanding it a muclf
greater myste thfa the' wire
less telegraphy itself.
With this
grand
scientific
achiever nt it will be possible
to communicate with vessels oh

What would be the result if a
fire wafted by brisk breezes
should occur, in our poorly

' Awful Work of an Insane $an.
Jackson, Miss., Sept. 10. A

curred at West Station, five miles
north of here, this morning
George W Moore, a prominent

insanity for some 'time, adminis
tered strichnine to his wife and
two children, telling them it was
quinine to keep off chills. Within

Cured of Chronic Diarrhoea After Thlity
Years of Suffering:.
"I suffered for thirty years with
diarrhoea and thought I was pat be
ing cured," says John S. Halloway, of
French' Camp, Mi6S. "I spent so
much time and money and suffered so
much that I had given up all hopes of
reoovery. 1 was so feeble from the
effects o f the diarrhoea that I could do
no kind of labor, could not even travel,
but by acoident I was permitted to find
a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera an'd Diarrhoea Remedy, .and
after taking several bottles 1 am en
tirely cured ot thaf trouble. I am so
pleased with the result that I am anxi
ous that it be in reach of all who suiler
as I have." For sale at Marsh's drug

HEART TO SOUL.
Said a woman's Soul to "a wo-
man's Heart :
"I shall live forever, but dust
thou art;
And deSpite the fires to-day that
burn,
To morrow thou'lt die and to
. dust return."
But the Heart replied to'the Sou
and said :
"Though alive to-day and to
9 morrow dead,
My day of life.is worth to me
Thy endless years of eternity.
'For I live and love and suffer
woe
Thongh thpu liv'st forever thou
canst not know.
And my dayoElife be bitter or
stveet,
No final reckoning have I to meet
"The flowers will bloom from
my dust and sing,
'From a Heart that lived but a
days wee spring.'
And I laugh and love and sin
and say :
'It does not matter, the Soul shal
pay.' " .
Matalie Brown in Smart Set
Staunch Young Democrat.
The following effort by
a
mountaineer boy of Hi years
seems creditable as his first of
i
tort and has been ottered to us
bv a friend from the "land of
the sky:"
I am a Democratic boy
Whom Republicans try to annoy,
And when they are beaten in the
trial . .
They force a word in swift do
nial.
Then they try to change me, by
and by,
But 'tis of no use for them to
try;
I'll live to be twenty-one, I hope,
Then I'll put in a Democratic
vote. i
Now, Republicans, I'll make a
request.
And see whether you can stand
the test:
Can you tell what good you've
ever doner
None of you can tell us, ' no, not
one.
