TRAVELLED IN A HURRY.
A Message sent From Savannah TO 4
San Francisco and an Answer 4
Received In Five Minutes.


Received in Five Minutes.
The record in long distance teIegTaphy
was broken in Savannah last week. A
message was sent from Savannah TO san
Francisco and an answer received in
I'VE minutes. Friday morning Mr.. c. r.
Woods OF the firm Of Woo6s. Garrett &
Co. approached Mr.. George Spaid, rhe
Western Union telegraph operator in the
cotton exchange and inquired what was
the shortest possible time in which & mes
sage could be transmitted from Savannah
TO San Francisco and an answer received
IN reply. The reply was that
it would take about half an
hour, but as Mr.. Woods manifested
desire TO break the record Mr.. Spaid COM
municated with Manager Maxwell Of the
Western Union on the subject. Mr.. Woods
desired 10 send a message 20 that il
would reach his friend in San Francisco.
a banker, about the time ne arrived al
his office, or about 9 O'Clock When it j.
O'Clock In San Francisco il is z O'Clock
In Savannah so that Manager Maxwell
had plenty of time in which 10 make his
arrangements. He communicated his de-
signs 70 the manager of the Western
Union office in New York who readily
agreed in the idea and promised to con-
meet Savannah with San Francisco at =
O'Clock Savannah time with Instructions
TO give the message and reply precedence
over all other business. At Y o'clock ev~
erything was ready and at 1918 O'Clock
the message was sent.
II was brief social message acquaint-
ing the banker with the fact that his wife
had arrived safely in Savannah and in
quiring after the rest of the family. In
exactly five minutes after the message
had been sent the reply was received.
Mr.. Woods, who had remained in the cot
ton exchange, could hardly believe that
the reply was bona fde when the message
was handed to him. He declared that
il was most wonderful as did a number
of others in the exchange who were made
acquainted with the feat.
The message was sent from Savannah
to New York, where It was Immediately
transmitted direct to San Francisco. The
bankers Office is not far from the Western
Union Office in San Francisco. so that the
message was quickly delivered and re-
ply Immediately obtained. which was at
once dispatched to Savannah. The West
ern Union people themselves were sur
prised at the remarkably short time &C,
cupied in the transmission of the message
and reply If it had been accomplished
in fifteen minutes they would have cons
sidered the time quite satisfactory. This
feat it is believed breaks all previous rec
ords in fast biography The combined
distance traversed by the two messages
is about 500 miles.

Dr. Condor, of Utah.
PFNoBscoI", Oct. !

PFNoBsCoI", Oct. 10, 1895.
To the Editor Of The American;
am glad to learn that our old friend
DR.. A. >. Condor, of Ogden, Utah, has
been nominated hy the republicans to
the first legislature Of hat new state. 1t
is no insignificant honor, considering the
eminent character OF the rival candidates,
and it indicates the great personal popu
larity of the doctor. The precinct is
democratic one, and tremendous efforts
will be made to win republican victory
in the coming November election.
! have no doubt that the republicans of
Weber county have made an eminently
wise choice in he selection of the doctor,
as pushing representative in the cam
paign now in progress.
| knew the doctor when boy perhaps
better than any other person living, out
side Of his own family. | know that he
is thoroughly representative man, of
generous nature and quick sympat hies.
He has passed through the trials OF the
poor country boy. Born almost in the
heart of the forests, in the old town of
Penobseet, trudging daily distance OF
two miles, to the little red school house
on the hill to sip from the fountain of
knowledge, working on the farm in sum
mer and in he woods in winter, he de-
veloped into hardy, ambitious youth,
with the elements OF a practical educa-
tion wrought into his brain. He COM
menced to teach early, and became very
popular and ent husiastic master of mixed
schools.
/ know what he is as a stump orator
and debater, for nearly every stump of
sufficient size on the old homesteads be-
came platform. and every living tree
an auditor and witnessed to our youthful
debates on the questions OF the hour and
the problems of the future. All! those
stumping seasons are rich still in the re-
mem brance of youthful ardor and men
tai pleasure, even if they never settled
any OF the great questions that have af
fected society.
With the ambition of youth squirting
him on, in mid-Winter, with little means
and no definite object ahead except to
find some opportunity suited to his tastes
and talents, he started for the far west;
here he taught for while in the highe
grades of schools, finally took medical
course at Ann Arbor, Mich, and for
many years has had successful practice
in his profession.
DR.. Condor has contributed many arti-
Giles to he press in prose and poetry. As

Practically the wide tire costs no
more than the narrow one. The wagon
is no heavier, it runs lighter and lasts
longer. There is not a city in Europe
where heavy trucks with narrow tires
are allowed upon the streets. The re-
suit is perfect pavements. 1t is only in
the cities of this country, where officials
care for nothing but robbing the tax
