International competition has reached an

Some day when the present Archduke

from a lack of pork or corn the naughty
monarch may have reason to regret his

ell in the worlds fair city. Chicago would
fain have received the Industrious ones with
great ceremony, but the archduke had made
up his mind To be let alone. and had the
ChicagOans who so dearly love a lord been
possessed Of that common sense which is
b uncommon they would have gratified
royalty whim. But Chicago society is not
easily controlled. and when it wants to
make the acquaintance of prince pays but
little attention to the dictates OF nlodesty

On Thursday next the pride Of Great

cas- hope, the yacht Vigilant, will spread
their sails to the breeze and start in the
first of three races which are 70 give one Of
the represented nations the yachting cham

selves are deeply interesting, and will be
witnessed by great multitu1es OF the expert

craft will result in more than the giving of
temporary pleasure to the millions who will
see them, and read Of their nlaneuverings
Such competition has stimulated the inven-

to the construction of ships. and although
there are times when it seems as though

yet keen competition mas again and again

So many things not long ago deemed ut
terly impossible are now in practical oper-
alton that the careful human being is slow
to doubt and ready to Investigate. For
some time past that profound scientist and
advanced electrician. Prof. Nikola Tesla,
has been making public some of the wonders
evolved in his laboratory and In a recent
lecture told his hearers that strong had
become his conviction of the possibility Of
the transmission OF Ineligible signals and
perhaps even of mechanical energy to any
distance without the aid OF conducting wires.
that he no longer regarded 1t In the light Of
a mere theoretical possibility, but as a seri-
Gus problem in electrical engineering, which
seemed to him certain to be carried out.
Astounding as this outlook IS II Is less start
ling 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. If. Preece
electrician. has made several conclusive ex-
periments in the transmission OF electric
signals through space without wires. A

shore Of the Bristol channel. More than
three miles away, on island. a gutta-
percha covered wire. 500 yards in length.
was laid Through the shore circuit an
alternating current Of $50 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
Morse key. The receiving instruments were
telephones and, II Is said. that no difficulty
was experienced In reading the signals.
Another experiment, the wires being nearly
i've and half miles apart, was not quite
so successful. for although signals could be
received. Ineligible communication was not
possible. Mr.. Preece IS now devoting him.
self to investigative study and is fully con-
fdent that within little while what but
a year or two ago was a great mystery
will soon be satisfactorily solved. OF course.
1t will tax ingenuity TO avoid the confusion
consequent upon the collision of message
bearing currents that either meet directly
or az angles. but the human mind has ac-
complished so many marvellous things that

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
ton 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 archdube arrived in
company with Prince Isenberg Bernstein
and Count Wurmbrand-Stuppach. The Aus
TRAN 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
gayly apparelled and deeply anxious sur
prise party" 1t was all over in a minute
and although none Of those who experience
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 1t 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.

and Capes of the two leading cloak makers
of America for this city. These two max

Some of their styles are copied by foreign
makers.

are different. No two are exactly alike.
Sometimes we nay have the same style in
couple Of shades and black. For this
son many ladies never buy a wrap outside
Of our establishment, for fear Of meeting
some other lady with one just like theirs. 1t
never happens with our styles-they are
exclusive" Another thiGg--yOu need not
be afraid Of not being able to get one Of
our Coats over the big sleeves OF your new
fall suit. They have been allowed for, and
some of the Coats nearly all

and Capes also have the new Worth col

Philadelphia is perturbed Normally the
City OF Brotherly Love is calm and digni-
fed. but when any one endeavors to relieve
1t Of something which has, by long asso-
citation, 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 site upon
which to erect 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 it's keeping. and 1t Is moving to bring
about what it believes to be a desirable
contamination. 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-
ton 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
because 1t 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
nations biggest coin factory should be else
where than at the nations place of bus
mess.
