his return journey to Sherlock. When
almost home, just before dusk, he noticed
three rough-looking characters alongside
the railroad track cycling him closely. Mr..

pistol with him. The features and actions
OF the men were not assuring, and the
rider Immediately took precautions against

BY the men, who issued the stereotyped
order, Throw up your hands" Up went
Mr.. Palmer,s hands. but in one of them he
brought up his pistol and began firing.
The footpads were thunderstruck, az they
did not expect this. In a second they turn
ed ana started to run, but Mr.. Palmer con-
tinued to fire until his ammunition was
exhausted. One of the roughs was shot In
the leg and fell, but as his companions
heard no more shots they stopped long
enough to assist the wounded man into

How seriously the man was wounded Is
not known, as Mr.. Palmer put up his
pistol and continued his journey, and
nothing has since been heard Of his assail-

MARcoNrs SYSTEM IMPROVED.
Receiver Perfected That IL 1000
Times a. Strong.

PITTSBURG, Pa. Dec. 7-Bold re-
searches by Prof. Reginald Fessenden and
his assistant Prof. Kitner In the electrical
laboratory Of the Western University Of
Pennsylvania, have resulted IN the pro-
duction of a. receiver for wireless teleg-
ranhy that is two thousand times more sem
sitive than the so-called "coherer" of the
Marconi system.
In speaking of the discovery today. Prof.
Fessenden said: although we have inn
proved the receiver SO that It IL 1000 times
as sensitive as the original one, we re-
aIize that we have not yet begun to see
the limit. Marconi, In his brilliant expert
ments, has demonstrated that messages
can be sent over ninety miles. AS our re-
ceiver is several thousand times more SEN
sitive, it Is clear that the messages can be
sent by our method very much farther.
though just what the limit is would not
like to say. 1t, at least should be possi-
Bile to send messages across the Atlantic
with poles less than 200 feet high, The ul-
innate distance must be checked by ac-
tuai experiment before 1t becomes a sci
entifc fact in the strictest sense"
