MORSE SUSTAINED
His Theory Regarding Copper Wire
Has Been Fully Emphasised
BY Time.

The telegraph has got back to where
1t started as a science and revolution
lied the world in the matter Of copper
wires, explains prominent telegraph
constructor. In all of the experiments
made by Prof. Morse, the in
ventor, as well as those of
Prof. Henry, who so ably
seconded him In developing the science,
copper wire was used. The day fol-
lowing the sending of the original mes
sage between this city and Baltimore,
What God hath wrought" the wires
broke down and for some weeks there
was NO communication, in an electrical
way at least. Contraction and expan-
sion had not been provided for, and. IA
result, down fell the wires.
All kinds of excuses were made and
ell kinds Of methods were used to keep
the wires In working order, but they
were not gratifyingly successful. The
result of the Investigations then made
was that iron wire was the most relia-
bic, taking all the circumstance into
consideration, and iron wire sup
planted the copper wire, notwithstand-
Ing the protest of Morse.
One Of the greatest difficulties In the
use OF iron was the rspidity with which
II was cut by rusting. In is years or
30 this was rsmedied by the process Of
galvanixing the wire, which rave IT
twice or three times its life by pre-
serving the wire from oxidation. When
the telephone came into extensive use
even more difficulty was experienced
with iron wire. OF course, every one
knew iron wire was not as good q con-
puetor - copper. but those who had
studied the matter also knew that cop
per wire would more easily break in
consequences Of the contractions pro-
duoed BY the changes In temperature.
The only thing remaining to be done
was to make = copper wire which
would not be so sensitive to the
weather. This was done in time. and
to-day ell the trunk lines for tele-
phones are copper. without which long
telephonirlg would be Inn
practicable. AZ iron wires could not Be
used for any extended distances

Just drawing to a close has been 8
most satisfactory and successful one
in all particulars. Profs. Fl. B. Hines
and w. S. Patrick are to be congrat.
ulated upon their success, which has
been attained in the face OF consider
able difficulty, as the year has GER
tainly been very untoward one to
foster educational enterprises.
The advancement of the children
has been rapid and thorough, discip-
line in the school good, and the gen
eraldeportmento of pupils satisfactory
to teachers and patrons. No COM
plants have been made to the board
OF trustees, an unusual thing not to
occur in 9-month's session. The
board has re-employed Profs. Hines
and Patrick to teach another term,
beginning in September next.
We neglected last week to mention
that Profs, Hines and Patrick gave a
reception to their pupils at the La
Croix hotel, on Tuesday, May 9th, at
which mine host S. NJ. LaCroix and
