Telegraphy by Wholesale.

An exceedingly interesting paper was
read at the meeting of the American
Institute of Electrical Engineers last
night at No. 2 west Thirty-first street
by DR.. A. C. Crehore and Lieutenant
George O.. Squier, United States army,
on h "Synchronograph," described as
a new method of rapidly transmitting
intelligence by the alternating cur
rent.
The experiments on which the paper
was based were made in the electrical
laboratory of the United States artil-
lery school at Fort Monroe, Va, where
land telegraph and telephone lines were
used. By means of the new transmit
ter, which was exhibited, Lieutenant
Squier said hat 5000 words a minute
could be sent.
T take a single example of the bus
mess between New York and Chicago"
said the speaker, where about 40, 900
letters are daily carried, it would re-
quire but two lines in continuous OPP
Grafton to handle the entire business"
Among some of the possibilities
which Lieutenant Squier presented was
the publication of the same newspaper
in different parts of the country the
same day.
Concerning the telegraphy of the fu-
ture, based on this system, Lieutenant
Spuier said:
The telegraph line Of the future will
comprise substantial poles carrying a
few copper wires worked to their full
capacity for transmitting electric sig
mails. The cost of maintenance OF such
a line when once constructed will be
little more than for an ordinary iron
wire now used, while its carrying ca
pacity for intelligence at 3, 900 words per
minute simplex will be about equal to
100 wires used for hand transmission.
simplex. BY duplexing the line the
carrying capacity is doubled and be
comes 5000 words per minute."-NeW

1t may be worth something to know
that the very best medicine for restor-
ing the tired out V system to a
healthy vigOr is Electric Bitters. This
medicine is purely vegetable, acts by
giving tone to the nerve centres in the
stomach, gently stimulates the Liver
and Kidneys, and aids these organs in
throwing off impurities in the blood.
Electric Bitters improves the appetite,
aid digestion, and is pronounced by
those who have tried it as the very
best blood purifier and nerve tonic.
Try it. Sold for soc or s1.00 per bottle
