It_was done before the royal commiassica. Official experiments will be renewed when I return to Italy in September. I have cuc- cessfully experimented also at the Italian ministry of marine and at the Quirinal be- fore the king and queen. “I made the discovery almost by accident. I had been studying electrical phenomena three years, when two years ago I found that by putting Herz’s radiator to the earth, connecting it with a wire extended vertically in the air and repeating the pro- cess with a modified Bramley receiver, a current could be transmitted about 100 yards without connecting the wires. Then I found that, without increasing the bat- tery power, but by simply increasing the height of the vertical wire, the influence of the instrument extended over a distance increasing in geometrical ratio to the in- creased height of the wire. “The wire must extend into the air. A coiled wire heips only as the coil is high, not according to the length of wire in the coil. A wire inclined instead of vertical has power equal only to that developed by a@ vertical wire as much shorter as the distance taken up by the inclination. “A wire carried to the top of the high ast of a ship ought to enable the captain to telegraph a conside: ing that 100 feet in height of the wire means twelve miles in distance of com- munication. By the same p zines could be exploded in from a great distance, and signals could sent so that the enemy could interrupt communication. ARMY AND G G. ATTORNEY-AT-LAW, 505 D. st. n.w., Washing- . Residence, No. 3 Mount Vernon New York ave Mrs, Burnett and Her Plays. From the New York San. Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett, who is not well known to New Yorkers by sight, was frequently seen on the streets last week,when she was here in connection with the preparations for the production of one of her plays. Mrs. Burnett is a striking- looking woman with blond hair, which for several years she wore rather short. She has grown stouter during recent years, and her appearance in the style of dress she adopts would lead one to believe that she was English rather than American, al- though most of her life has been spent in this country. Although Mrs. Burnett makes @ large income from her writings, she is anxious for the greater emoluments of the dramatist, and she sticks assiduously to although it is doubtful if any I except “Little Lord Fauntle- roy” has ever proved very profitable to her. She is a woman of very pronounced opin- erpretation that her plays nd it was a disagreement about a matter of this kind with her man- med the production of her whole year.

Special Correspordence of The Evening Star. PINEY POINT, Mdé., August 3, 1897. Ninety-one miles away, down the historia Potomac, and near the bright waters of Chesapeake bay, standing on a lovely shelving beach, is Piney Point, surrounded by health-giving pines, which, to the in- valid, are like unto the cedars of Lebanon. The old Point has been a favorite summer resort of Washingtonians for a century past, while many have come from Ralt!- more and Norfolk to swell the throng, Here they reveled in the luxury of a in the “sounding sea,” or fished, or bow le or rambled along its glittering strand. Far out on the Point stands the pictur- esque old light house, clothed in spotless white, typical of Its beneficent mission as a life-saving station. This old beacon has stood the storms of many years. The ele- ments have battled continuously against its massive walis, but its usefulness has ne been impaired. To the old Washingtonian it is an obj almost of affection, as it serves to recall many familiar forms and faces that w Wont to gather here in the long ago.

PULAZZL Si A NOTE OF WARNING. min Alaska on the to Klondike. A Washingto: Ra: NEAR CHILCAT, N. Lat. 59° 36’, Alas! July 24, 1897. It has been so long since I have read a newspaper that I do not know whether the Klondike fever has penetrated the eastern states or not. It is raging fearfully along the Pacific coast, and all the mountain passes are gorged with men hurrying to get into the Yukon country. I would like to raise a voice of warning to those of your readers who are contemplating this wild venture. In the first place, the returns already received do not in any way warrant this c:amor for gold. The transportation com- panies and merchants see a great harvest ahead for themselves, and all join hands in booming anything that will contribute to their prosperity, no matter at what cost of life or danger to others. Then, again, the owners of the successful mines, or “finds,” as these placer mines are called, have sent their agents out to stimulate immigration with the hope that it will reduce the pres- ent high wages they are required to pay to get their mines worked. The level-headed mer. in southeast Alaska are not moved at all by thee wild reports. I have care- fully observed the character of the men who are going and the influences employed to stir up the enthusiasm, and am thor- oughly convinced that great disappoint- ment awaits those who are so thoughtlessly rushing into this cold arctic country, one thousand miles from any evidence of civili- zation, and under the influence of rumors that they do not stop to investigate as to their reasonableness or reliability. There are already over five thousand miners on the Yukon, and of these less than twenty are known to have been suc- cessful. Between this place, which is less than 2,000 miles north of San Francisco, and easily reached by steamer, and the Yukon there is a high range of mountains, with but two small and very difficult passes into the open plains beyond, and then there are 700 miles of wild country to traverse before Klondike is reached. Claims along this stream, which is an insignificant tribu- tary to the Yukon river, have been staked out for 200 mg»s above Dawson City. The only hope, therefore, for these venturers is the Reindeer, Stewart and McMillan rivers, that have already been partially prospect- ed, and hence are not inviting, or to en- gage in day labor for those who have al- ready paying finds, This large influx of miners will greatly reduce the present ex- orbitant wages, and leave nothing but dis- appointment and distress for many who have made great sacrifices, and traveled these thousands of miles, stimulated by high hopes that will ultimately surely ban- ish. - It is estimated that 100 tons of baggage is now lying at Dyea awaiting transportation over the two passes. Some of it will not get over this fall. My earnest advice, therefore, to any read- ers of The Star who are contemplating coming out here is to wait, and let the long, dark winter pass and take time to properly prepare for the trip. There are hundreds that are on the ilcoot and White passes that are stranded, without money, and not enough provisions to last the winter out, nor to sell for enough to buy a ticket back to civilization. No one should venture into this country without one year’s provisions, which will weigh about 1,500 pounds, and warm clothing enough to last until his return. Ready cash after the northern slopes of the Cas- cade mountains are reached is practically worthless, as it will not buy clothing, food or success. J. D. CROISSANT. ——— Gov.
