Scene of Trouble. London, March 23.—A mutiny ot two companies of the Dorsetshire regiment stationed in Belfast is re- ported by the Pall Mall Gazette. “When -the men of the First bat. talion of the Dorsetshire regiment were paraded in Belfast and notified that they were being transported else- where they threw down their arms, A sergeant declared, ‘We will have no home rule here,’"” the Pall Mall Ga- Zette message said. In order to prevent an outburst the police in Ireland have been told not to take any steps to enforce the gun license act in cases where members of the Ulster volunteers are seen car- rying rifles in camp or elsewhere. The act empowers the authorities to seize all unlicensed firearms. The greatest danger is believed to lle in the possibility of Orange and Natlonalist workmen'coming to blows. This might start a general conflict.

No - *35 Cash Price Telephohe Achievements Telephone Service of Today the Creation of the Bell Co. In no line of human endeavor has the in- ventive brain of the scientist contributed more to the world’s progress than by the creation of the art of telephony, of which the Bell system is the embodiment, When the telephone was born, nothing analogous to telephone service as we.now know it existed. There was no tradition to guide, no experience to tollow. The system, the apparatus, the methods —an entire new art had to be created. The art of electrical engineering did not exist. The Bell pioneers, recognizing that success depended upon the highest engin- eering and technical skill at once organized an experimental and re search department which is now directed by a staff of over 550 engineers and - sclentists, including former professors, post-graduate students, scientific investigators—the graduates of over 70 universities. '~ From its foundation the company has continuously developed the art. New im- provements in telephones, switchboards, lines, cables, have followed one .another with remarkable rapidity. While each successive type of apparatus to the superfical observer suggested sim- ilarity, each step in the evolution marked a decided improvement. These changes, this evolution, has not only been continu- ous, but is continuing. Substantially all of the plant now in use, including tele- phones, switchboards, cables and wires, has been constructed, renewed or reconstructed mitters owned by the Bell Company Janu- ary 1, 1914, none were in use prior to 1902, while the average age is less than five years. Within 10 years we have expended for construction and reconstruction an amount more than equa: to the present book value of our entire plant. Long-distance and underground transmis- sion was the most formidable scientific problem confronting the telephone ex- pents. The retarding effect of the earth on the telephone current often impaired con- version through one mile underground as much as through 100 miles overhead. Over- head conversation had its distinct limita- tions. ~ No possible . improvement in the tele- phonc transmitter could of itself -solve these difficulties. The solution was only found in the cumu- lative effect of improvements, great and small, in telephone, transmitter, line, ca- ble, switch board, and every other piece of apparatus or plant required in the trans- mission of speéch, While the limit of commercial overhead talking had increased from strictly local to over 1,000 miles as early as 1893, it was not until 1905 that conversation could BANERUPT'S PETITION FOR DISCHARGE bankruptey. WHEREFORE he prays that he may be decreed by the Court to have a full be had over long-distance circaits of which as much as 20 miles was in underground cables. By 1906 underground talking dis- tance had increased to 90 miles. By 1912 " it 'was possible to talk underground from New York to Washington. It was then that the construction.of un- der ground conduits from Boston to Wash- ington was determined upon,—not that it was expected to get a through under- ground talk between those places, but in case of storm or blizzard, to utilize inter- mediate sections in connection with the overhead. o Our persistent study and incessant ex- perimentation have produced results more remarkable still. ‘We have perfected cables, apparatus and methods that have overcome obstacles heretofore regarded as insuperable both to long distance overheaq and underground conversation. Undergroung conversation is now pos- sible between Boston and Washington, four times the length of the longest Euro- pean under ground line. This enabled the Bell System in the recent great storm, so destructive on land and sea, to maintain communication for the public between all the principal points on the Atlantic sea- board. Telephone communication is established e between. New York and Denver, is po- tentially ipossible between all points in the United States, and by 1915 will be an ac- nize, and in its selection must always be governed by the necessities of a national service, with its complex requirements, which is intinitely more exacting than lo- cal or limited service. These achievements represent vast ex- penditures of money and immense concen- tration of effort which have been justified by results of immeasurable benefit to the public. - No local company unaided could bear the financial or scientific burden of this work. Such results are pogsible only through a centralized general staff, avoid- ing wasteful duplication of effort, working mln. -lplrdblems common to all for the benefit of all. The prioneers of the Bell System recog- nized that telephone service as they saw it, was in the broadest sense a public utility; that upon them rested a public obligation to give the best possible service at the most reasonable rates consistent with risk, in- vestment and the continued improvement and maintenance of its property. Without this expenditure of millions and concentration of effort, the telephone art as it exists could not have been developed. What we have done in working out these great problems in the past should be accepted as a guarantee of what we will do in the future. THEO. N.

What It Does Here is an Adder, rapid and competent, wlich a child can operate. Seven keys do the work of the dozens here- tofore employed. Anyoné with little practice, can make it compute a hundred figures a minute. It computes up to 9,999, 999, and it never makes mis- takes. It checks you in a new way against mistakes in copy- ing. It makes play of addition. It totals long columns quickly, and the totals are al- ways correct. It points out the errors in other men’s to- tals—checks invoices, state- ments and records. It does all this work for you in a faultless way. For one year the cost will be ten cents a day. All after years are free. An Ideal Adder Good Adding - Machines have beén costly and compli- cated.
