WIRELESS MAKES
MORE PROGRESS
Marconi EvoIvm Syslfin for
Transmitting Message With
| a Minimum Electrical Pow
er and at a Very Low Cost.
London. July 21.?Another sjr.-at
step in the development of wireless
telegraphic transmission hus been
realized, says Senator 'Marconi, who
has returned to London after a two'
months' experimental cruise in his i
yacht ??Electra." A system has bec*n
i evolved by the Italian inventor
| whereby wireless messages are
transmitted with a minimum of elec- !
trical poVer, and at very low cost.
"We have transmitted messages up [
to a distance of 2,250 miles, not on- i
ly with a very much smaller amount I
of power and energy but faster and |
more cheaply than with the ordinary
system of long-distance wireless." i
said Senator Marconi. "When the I
new system is adopted It will mean
that a power station for long-dls-'
tance work can be erected at much j
less cost than at present. I have j
telegraphed on this system from |
Cape Verde Islands, off the African
coast, to London. To send messages
clearly and more rapidly over those |
2,500 miles took less power than a
message from Ixindon to Paris by tho
ordinary methods.
Senator Marconi explained that
these advantages were gained by the
utilization of waves that have not
before been used. Given the neces
sary mechanical element, he said,
messages could be sent clearly seven
times faster than the present rate,
and that the puftlic and the news-'
papers would ultimately have the;
benefit of much cheaper commercial'
charges. His opinion is that wire- i
loss is only in its Infancy, and that'
the future has in store greater mar-J
vels than have been revealed In the '
past.
Commenting on recent experl- j
ments conducted by American tele- j
phone conversation. Senator Marcor.i
said he was afraid such a achieve- \
ment was still far off. "I do not
'say that wireless telegraphy will ev
er be an absolutely private means of
tranmUslon. but I will say that in I
future it will be possible to make it J
much more difficult for anyone to I
get messages not intended for them."
1 Senator Mnrrgni prrtpnc.w to'.go Oil J
another experimental trip in a few I
week's time, and later to try the new j
system of long-distance wireless from
the coast of the United States to
Europe.
WILL STANDARDIZE
NAMES OF FLOWERS
Chicago, July 21.?The chaotic,
state of affairs In the miscalling of
names of flowers, plants and other
perennials, has made necessary the1
standaidlzation of their names, and
a report on the subject has ibeen
adopted by the American Association
of Nurserymen.
The compilation of names of then*
perennials, the result of more than
five years of actual work on the part
of the sub-committee of the Ameri
can Joint Committee of Hortieultur
ulists. Is heralded as a great stride
forward in the horticultural world
As an example, the committee
pointed out that there are more than
2.000 names for roses. Matty
names are used for the same ros*-.
and thin has resulted in complication.
With th?* completion of the new
nomenclature, it is hoped that use
of the standard names will beco;ne
1 general.
Standardized perennial names,
both common and scientific, will
! benefit the public and the grower,
according to the committee, and will
tend to eliminate unfair practices.
Heretofore growing, buying and
selling have been largely guess work,
the committe said and based on per
sonal equation rather than on fain,
square, open and accepted business
standards.
It Is expected that the Govern
ment will accept this nomenclature
as an official standard.
HOPI VILLAGES
BUILT IN 1620
Scientists Trace Villages to
Revolt of the Hopi Against I
the Spaniards Where Mis
sions Were Torn Down.
Flagstaff, Arit., July 21.?Scien
tists have determ^ed that the Hopi
Indian buildings of many of the vil
lages of the tribe northeast of Flag
staff date hack to about 1620 when
the Hopis revolted against the Span
ish priests and tore down missions
?built by the Spaniards, using many
timbers from the missions in con
structing their own houses.
A party Including Dr. A. E. Doug
Ins of the University of Arlza and Dr.
J. A. Jeancon of the Colorado state
museum returned recently from the
Hopi pueblo villages, where they
made a study of the wooden beams
in the ancient structures.
Professor Douglas has specialized
in the study of rings in Arizona trees
with the result th.it he has been able
to determine the age of the timbers.
The scientists' principal difficulty (
lay in securing the permission of the!
Indians to make borings in the
beams which are held sacred by the
Hopis.
When this permission was finally
obtained a number of one-inch bor
ings w$re made and the examination
indicated that the (beams had been
cut about the year 1620 when tradi
tion says the Spanish built their
missions in northeastern Arizona.
Some years later <umo the HopJ
revolt and the missions were torn
down.
Many of the beams in the Indian
dwellings are decorated with rich
carvings which Dr. Douglas says aro
the work of the Spaniards.
