PAGE SIX, SATURDAY, MAY 31, 1924. GAAIN PRIGES -—BIVENSETBAGK CHICAGO, May 31.—Despite con: silerable evening’ up on the part of shorts in the May delivery, wheat prices averaged lower today during the early transactions. The ‘selling side was favored on account of fur- ther rains in the southwest. Pros. pects regarding farm legislation at Washington were almost construed as bearish. Initial figures, which ranged from %c decline to %c ad- vance with July $1.07%@% to $1.07% and September $1.08% $1.08%, were followed by a general decline to below Thursday's finish. Corn and oats were relatively firm, weather conditions for corn being unfavorable. After opening at Yc off to %e up, July 76% to 76%c, the corn market steadied at a slight advance all around. Oats started at %c decline to %4c advance, July 44%c, and later showed but little change, Provisions reflected firmness of _ hog values.

HANGMAN’S NOOSE HOLDS NO TERROR WOMAN SENTENCED TO HANGING FOR GEORGIA CRIME By MILLARD FERGUSON (Copyright 1924 Casper Tribune) ATLANTA, Ga., May 31.—A llp- stick and a Bible that she never had read until she was put behind the bars are the chief comforters of Mrs. Ida Hughes, who today is awaiting the hangman's noose for the murder of her mother-in-law, Mrs. M. C. Hughes, There is something very childlike. —and very pathetic—about this wo- man who coolly stuck a pistol against the body of her mother-in- law and shot the older woman to death with a policeman standing only a few feet away. She reads the Bible a while. Then she goes to her mirror and powders her nose and wields her lipstick, making herself attractive for her husband, whom she expects at any minute. But the husband does not come. He has not visited her for three weeks. That apparently, is her one concern, She has appealed for a new trial. But she !sn't,at all con- fident it will be granted. Yet she does not seem disturbed over the possibility. that her days will end on the gallows. What concerns her is that her husband doesn't come. ‘They say I killed my mother-in- Mrs. Hughes said as she sat rocking chair in the women’s ward at Fulton county tower—'‘the big rock,’ the negroes call it be- se it is of granite from Stone intain, ‘But I don't remember getting the pistol or firlng it. That is all a blank to me. What I ry member’ is the way I suffered beforehand. “My mother-in-law lived with us and she was a bad woman. She drank and she brought to our house women of bad character, I Possible in Future | Pictures by Radio Held worked on the night shift at a cot- ton mill and made from $3.20 to $3.90 a night. That had to pay house rent, grocery bill and every- thing for us. My husband wasn't working. “After I'd worked all night, I'd come home and cook breakfast for them and half the time none of them would speak to me or if they did speak it was to grumble at what I had cooked. At night I'd fix supper before I went to work.’ “Why did you stand for all that? she was asked. “I didn't have anywhere else to go. Besides, I loved my husband and I kept thinking things would get better. . Finally, my mother-in-law de- cided to move and when she left she took most of the things in our house with her. “One Sunday she came back with two policemen. She had a warrant for clothes of hers that she said I had. She went over to my trunk and began throwing my things on the floor. I asked her to stop, but she kept on. “The next thing I remember I was riding in an automobile and my husband and Uttle boy were cry- ing. I asked the policeman next to me what was the matter and he sald: “You know damned well what's the matter, You've killed your mother-in-law.” “But I didn't know." “I believe In a hereafter,” Mrs Hughes concluded, “but I belleve 1 have had my full punishyent on this earth. I am in the hands of the law. If I must die, then I must. But none of it seems real, It all seems like something I had dreame: Very Near »y Engineers By ROBERT 'T, SMALL. (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune.) NEW YORK May 1 Having telephoned” pictures of President Coolidge and others from Cleve 1 to New York, electrical engineers are agreed today that pictures by radio will be a development of the |very near future It is now an established principle that whatever can be accomplished in the wa wire transmission \é an also be achieved by using th ether as the means of commuNic tion. Wires for the moment are under better control and must be relied upon to a good extent. Al- most daily strides, however, are be- ing made in the conquest of the air and there no longer is any mere theory as to what the ether may be made to do. The question today simply is one of constructing the elaborate instruments necessary to transmit and receive the various electrical impulses through space. The sending of photographs and news pictures by wire requires a delicate graduating of electrical im- pulses. This -selectivity, or refine- ment of electrical processes, Is not as yet possible with the ether, for the matter of interference in the air has yet to be worked out. Cop- per wires give complete control; the air is as yet an unruly creature. It can be tamed, however, and the matter of doing away with inter ference can become an accomplished fact as soon as more is learned o! the manufacture of instruments of greater selectivity. The posstibill ties of the ether are as limitless as the air Kself. Man simply has to learn to harness the wild forces which are loose. Statie, the terror of many a radio receiver, remains to be conquered and until it is, the delicate process of picture sending must remain within the realm of copper wires, where this “howling in the wilder- ness” has no part. The process of telephoning ple- tures is to the layman a very simple one. The visible part of the opera- tion is easily understood. But the invisible part is as strange to the unscientific onlooker as the mys. terles of radio itsélf. Many a radio fan knows that {if he turns certain knobs to certain points he will bring into his home music and speeches, but just why or how this seeming miracle {s accompiished, nine tenths of the radio users of America never will know and never will be understood. Pictures sent by wire are traced upon a photographic film mounted upon a cylinder. The tracing is done by a pencil of brilliant ght. The completed photograph is a series of fine lines by this light. The shadings of the lines which trace the picture are accomplished by varying the intensity of the light When it glows at its brightest, It cuts its way through the film so that the lines when developed are intense black. When some of the illuminative power is shut off, the lines are gray. When the light glows but faintly, no impression is made upon the film and thus the white spaces in the completed pic- ture are accounted ; for. In watching the recording ma- chine at work, the analogy which comes to the Iayman’s mind fs that of the dictaphone machine, where a person dictating through a tube records his words on a_ revolving wax cylinder which moves along a fraction of an inch with every re- volution. The photographic negative, mounted upon a small cylinder, is carried along in precisely the same manner and the pericil of light traces {ts varying lines. The cover: ing of a 5 by 7 inch negative with these lines requires about 6 minutes. At the sending end of the line, the process is somewhat reversed. There the positive film also is mounted on = cylinder and a pencil of light upon the delicate transmitting in- shining through this positive acts struments which control the In tensity of the recording light at the receiving end of the line, The pro- cesses involved tn this transmission are somewhat akin to radio in that vacuum tubes and other wireless instruments are employed. While the actual operation of the picture sending and recetving de- vices seems a simple thing, back of its accomplishment Me years upon years f research and scientific work The instruments built by the American Telephone and Telegraph y are the work of scores of who have given their time their braing to the task The process is no great “discovery. It has been merely the tedious ap- plication of well known principles. No particular thought has been given as yet to the commercial possibilities of picture sending by wire. For several years, at least, it will be a novelty rather than a atility. CRUDE MARKET Creek Lance Cree!
