As a News and Advertising Medium it has Re competitor. 57 Letters to THE STAR should be so | dressed, or to the Editorial or Basi- | mess Department, according to thete | character or purpone, not my imdi- | vidual conmected with the office. ———— So many things not long ago deemed ut- terly impossible are now in practical oper- ation that the careful human being 1s slow to doubt and ready to investigate. For some time past that profound scientist and advanced electrician, Prof. Nikola Tesla, has been making pubite some of the wonders evolved in his laboratory, and in a recent lecture told his hearers that so strong had become his conviction of the possibility of the transmission of intelligible signals and perhaps even of mechanical energy to any istance without the aid of conducting wires, ‘that he no longer regarded it In the light of @ mere theoretical possibility, but as a seri- ‘ous problem in electrical engineering, which seemed to him certain to be carried out. Astounding as this outlook Is it is less start- Jing than that opened up when Prof. Morse pleaded with Congress for means with which to construct an experimental telegraph line between this city and Baltimore. Telegraphy | by induction has been successfully accom- plished to and from moving trains in this | country, but no effort seems to have been | made to discover the limit of space through | which the current could be preserved and certainly steered. More has been done on this line In Great Britain. According to the Engineering Magazine, Mr. W. H. Preece, who is the British government's principal electrician, has made several conclusive ex- Periments in the transmission of electric signals through space without wires. A heavy copper conductor was suspended on Poles for a distance of 1,267 yards along the | Shore of the Bristol channel. More than three miles away, on an tsland, a gutta- Percha covered wire, 600 yards in length, was laid. Through the shSre circuit an alternating current of 150 volts and a max- fmum strength of sixteen amperes was transmitted, which could be broken up into signals In the usual way by means of a ‘Morse key. The recetving instruments were telephones and, it is said. that no difficulty was experienced in reading the signals. Another experiment, the wires being nearly five and a half miles apart, was not quite #0 successful, for although signals could be Fecetved, intelligible communication was not Possible. Mr. Preece is now devoting ‘iim- self to investigative study and {s fully con-| fident that within a little while what but | @ year or two ago was a great mystery | Will soon be satisfactorily solved. Of course, ft will tax Ingenuity to avold the confusion consequent upon the collision of message- | bearing currents that either meet directly or at angles, but the human mind has ac- complished so many marveious things that the voice of the eritic 1s silenced. If Prof. ‘Tesla and Mr. Preece make their theories commercially good and thus do away with ‘the necessity for most of the overhead wires they will deserve great public monuments, and if while they are doing the people a service they show the telegraph and tele-| Phone companies how to get along without | ‘the necessary but expensive condults they will not be forgotten by the rich corpora- tions. Two birds will thus be destroyed by the one current. ——_ +02 Of course the proposition of Wizant Edt- son to compress wheat Into dollars as the | contribution of science toward the solution of the financial probiem is interesting, but the suggestion will not be received by the | public with the usual amount of enthusiasm | that greets the electric king's ideas. There | are a few Gnicky folks who think that there is a vast danger to health in the antiquated | sreenbacks that are kept im circulation un- til they are ft subjects for the South Cap! tol street establishment. They will doubt-| less protest against the idea of squeezing | * bushel of wheat into a pancake, embell- | ishing it with the buzzard mark, and set- ting it afloat through the unwashed chan- nels of trade. For, says Mr. Edison, this wheat dollar is never to lose Its quality as food, and when banks fail and checks are dishonored and hard times set In, the an- cient and honorable stocking toe will be abandoned for the boiling pot, and the do lars of our posterity will be soaked—in a culinary sense—until the sign of the buzzard isappears and the germ laden disc Is ready | to be turned into bread and batter cakes. | With specimens of the wretched issue of “Hancock twos,” still in circulation, the proposition of Mr. Edison ts a trifle nauseat- ing. —— wee International competition has reached an extremely Interesting stage when it is pro-| posed to have an English and an American | locomotive race for the world’s locomotive championship. Such a contest now seems to have been arranged and although the Seneral pubitc bas but little information as to the respective merits of the fleet ma- chines it will at once proceed to familiarize itself with mechanical terms and to con- verse liberally as to the conditions under which the utmost rapidity may be gen- @ated. At this time even the smail boy @ecourses fluently as to keels and bronze bottoms and hollow booms and sail areas and time allowances, but if it is finally settled that the English locomotive “Em- press," now on exhibition at the world's Yair, will run a ten-mile spurt against the New York Central's famous “$9,” the con- versation of the hour will relate principa!ly to driving wheels and cylinders and th length of stroke and multitubular boil with an oceasional argument as to the rel- ative values of three or four varieties of | fuel thrown in. ee If memory serves aright, it was a certain Greek orator, by name Demosthenes, who Was once asked the three essentials of suc- cessful oratory. “First, action,” said th Athenian; “second, action; third, action. All of which goes to prove that Demosthe- nes’ style is out of date according to the ideas of silver orators in the Senate. ee The statement that Caterina Garza spent three weeks and many dollars at the world’s fair brings to the front the first good reason why the so-called revolutionist levied assessments upon his friends alon, the Rio Grande { ee - ! ‘The more rapidly Bismarck’s health im- | Proves the less anxious docs the Emperor Wiltiam seem to be for his friendship | | “official headsman’s’ —_—_e+____ | Some day whea the present Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria is on the Aus- trian throne and his people are suffering from a lack of pork or corn the haughty monarch may have reason to regret hts | treatment of Chicago's secial leaders. A few days ago it became known to those who drag “hicago’s society around by the ear that the archduke would be in their nildst very soon, and on Wednesday even- ing last the future emperor, accompanied by Count Leo Wurmbrant-Stuppach, arriv- ed in the world’s fair efty. Chicago would | fain have received the illustrious ones with great ceremony, but the archduke had made | up his mind to be let a! and had the Chicagoans who so dearly love a lord been | Dossessed of that common sense which is > uncommon they would have grati! Toyalty’s whim. But Chicago society is easily controlied, and when it wants make the acquaintance of a prince pays Little attention to the dictates of modest and no attention at all to the expressed de res of him whose hand they would delight | to kiss. Consultation between a few of the | leaders resulted in the organization of that | barely American product, a surprise party And it was a surprise. mest of the surpris- fag being done by the archduke bi Eleven of Chicago's brightest and best— four of them being ladies—resolved to meet Austria's future ruler in spite of himself, and clad in gorgeous costumes such as be- fitted the planned occasion they waited the coming of their victim in the Austrian sec- tion of the fine arts building. The general public was excluded from that interesting subdivision, and for this precaution the members of the surprise party are now ex- tremely thankful. The archduke arrived in company with Prince Isenberg-Berstein and Count Wurmbrand-Stuppach. The Aus- trian consul, who was one of the waiting eleven, and who bowed profoundly to the coming monarch, was passed by unnoticed, nor was even a glance bestowed upon the wayly apparelled and deeply anxious “sur- prise party.” It was all over in a minute, and although mone of those who experienc- ed the well-deserved but paralyzing snub have as yet cared to give expression to their real opinion of the man they started out to surprise it is generally believed that there would be at least eleven absentees at any function given In Chicago in honor of the Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria. SES So Philadelphia is perturbed. Normally the City of Brotherly Love is calm and digni- fied, but when any one endeavors to relieve it of something waich has, by long asso- ciation, come to be regarded as one of the city’s own institutions, then is there out- burst of stately wrath and the clamor of righteous indignation. Conscientious read- ers of the newspapers have undoubtedly noticed that for some time past there has been trouble between Philadelphia and the Treasury Department over a site upon j Which to erect a mint building, the struct- ure that now houses the government coin- ers in that city being too small and too ancient. There are several suitable sites, but the prices demanded by the thrifty ones who own them are much too high. Negotiations are still pending, but the day of an agreement seems far away. New York—or Tammany, which is the same thing—wants to have the mint transferred to its keeping, and it 1s moving to bring about what it belleves to be a desirable consummation. The principal argument used is that New York city is the market in which the government purchases very much of its bullion, and that by having the mint right at the market much money could be saved that is now expended in ex- press charges. But there is another in- ducement, and that is said to be a free building site, and the value of such a dona- tion is, it is understood, being urged upon the authorities. Tammany could easily af- ford to give all the ground needed, for with the mint in its grasp it would have not less than fifteen hundred places for faithful members of the most corrupt political or- ganization in the world of today. If com- mon sense prevails in the discussion as to ultimate location the mint will come to the national capital; it was never intended for Philadelphia, and was merely left there Decause It was too bulky to be moved here when the seat of government was trans- ferred. Neither Tammany nor Philadel- phia can present one sound reason why the nation’s biggest coin factory should be else- where than at the nation’s place of bus- iness, ——_ + += —__ On Thursday next the pride cf Great Britain, the yacht Valkyrie, and Ameri- ca’s hope, the yacht Vigilaat, will spread their sails to the breeze and start in the first of three races which are to give one of the represented nations ihe yachting cham- pionship of the world. The contests in them- selves are deeply interesting, and will be witnessed by great multitues cf the expert and inexpert, but the racing of the pretty craft will result in more than the giving of temporary pleasure to the millions who will see them, and read of their maneuverings. Such competition has stimulated the inven- tive wenlus of those whose lives are devoted | to the construction of ships, and although there are times when it seems as though the limit of sailing speed had beea reached, yet keen competition aas again and again compelied changes in form an-l weight that produced more satisfactory results. As to the relative merits of ihe two boats on which the public eye is ‘ixed, there is ro trustworthy information. ‘The Valkyrie has established a trans-Atlantic reputation that Indicates the possession of remarkable qualities, and there is no doubt whatever as to the Vigilant’s activity, but not until after Thursday’s encounter gan even the knowing ones do more than shake their heads and look wise. ——_+eo—_—__ Amateur theatricals are much more eadly than the French duel.
