Mitchell ami other officials, idea

pioneers, and other distinguished
j?en gathered round Dr. BeU at h*,
strode Into the room on the top floor
of the telephone company's building
On a table at one end of the big
office was a replica of the first tel
ephone transmitter to carry the hu
man voice. R looked to be a crudc
enough affair. Tie down a drum
bead over a wooden -receiver, Join
the center of tbe ditun bead to the
free end of a receiver spring, ar
range a mouthpiece over the drum
head ? and there yoa have it. But
forty years ago when that crnd? af
fair was first ah own by BeU at the
Philadelphia Centennial, the Empei
or of -Brazil backed away from It In
'amazement, crying: "My God, It
, talks." And today, because of
what the engineers have done. Dr
Bell was able to send his voice
through It - across the continent.
Ifiere was further reminder of tan
telephone's babyhood In a coll of
wire connected with the transmitter.
This wss a part of the original wire
ovdr which Dr. Bell spoke tbe first
words ever uttered by telephone. In
Ms boarding house at 5 Ezete:
Place. Boston. On March 10. 1876
Belt had called to Thomas A. Wat
son. his associate, standing at a re
ceiver in another room, and Watson,
breathless with excitement, heard
his volea on- the wire. Tjijit wire wa
PlWWved * under glass, and new af *

One of the first to greet Dr. Bel
as be entered wss John Joseph
Carty, cMef engineer of the Ameri

transcontinental was built. T6ds>
waa not Mr. Carty's first In'mak

been doing ever since Dr. Bell gavr
the membrane transmitter to

There were those' In Prealden

telephone enginoers In the world
Today Mr. Carty heads more thar
300 enginoers. j.
Mr. Catty e9cort?d Dr. Ball to th
strange looking transmitter and it
lavntor pre? ed- Mb lips *to th<

"Ahoy! Ahoy! Can you hear
rue?" uk?d Mr. Bell and instantl
there wras a murmur in the receiver
audible to everyone in the room.

Notwithstanding the inclement

bled Sunday at the First Baptist
Church to participate In the prohlbl

jpened with Scripture reaolng and
prayer. The music was inspiration
ii, consisting of duet*. quartets, and
.-fcorusee. There was a spirit of en
husiaam pervading the audience
hat was unusual and omnlous. The
audience was notably represents
litre. There were ministers, law*
yers, officers, and business men of
he most represents tire character.
Moreover the faces of these people
? men and women ? were plainly
Indicative of the highest moral stan
dard*.
The official life of the community
was represented In two strong ad
dressee by Recorder W. L. Vaughar*
ind Mayor F. C. Kugler. The min
istry was represented in a short ad
dress by Rev. H. B. Searlght, who
<aid that the position of the minis
ters on this subject was well known
and he preferred to hear laymen.
In addition to Mr. Vaughan, the bar
lof the town was represented by Mr.
Daniel in a strong, convincing, cap
tivating address. What is usually
called the "business" part of the
town was ably represented by Mensrs
C. F. Bland and C. O. Morris.
The speakers were all optimistic,
leclarlng that conditions are Incal
culably better than they were under
the old license regime. They all
admitted, bowever, that the law I*

This means that a few lawless men,

At the close of the meeting S?a
laj" afternoon Mr. Daniel offered a
resolution calling upon the Legl^is
ture to sdopt additional legislation
?O strengthen an J make more eff mo

idopted by a unanimous rlemg
vote.
It was also the general conviction

effective If the good people of the

jffloers cannot enforce the laws with

WED 10.000 MILES AWAY
A MARRIAGE BY PROXY
Denver, Col., Jan. 23. ? The flrnt
marriage by proxy ever authorized
j y the Dutch government between
in? of its subjects and an American
jlrl -will be performed in Denver
ind oh the Island of Java, Ln the
Dutch Eaat Indian group, 10,000
niles away, at corresponding hours
text Wednesday.
Miss Eugenia Campbell, daughter
the late Charles Campbell of Col'
>rado Springs, and Harvey Buell, a
Denver newspaper man, will be tho
principals In the ceremony here,
while in the city of Wcbollen of the
Dutch navy, retired, and a young
woman whose name is unknown
here, will go through a similar mar
riage ceremony.
Miss Campbell, -who is a grand
daughter Of Alexander Campbell,
the founder of the Campbellltos.
iow the Christian church, will leave
Immediately on hsr pre-honeymoon
rip of nearly half the distance a
round the globe to Join her husband
.? Samarang. The coming of Schol
lea here for the ceremony is made
tnpetslble by the holding of all
NstberJand's troops under reserve
I for service in case of war. He is
m honorary officer In the Dutch ar
my and general manager of th"
Dodtsche Petroleum Company.
The marriage will T>e blndinr
upon neither proxy, because of the
special permission granted by the
Dot oh Department of 8tae. the two
.-eremonies performed simultaneous
ly will be regarded aa sufficient to
circumvent the Dutch immlgetion
law*. These would require Mls?
Campbell to live for six months in a
fwrang hotel, while the govsrn
ment satisfied Itself of Iter charac
ter before he* marriage could take
place.
