Wireless Teleqraphy.

Wireless telegraphy is to be used in
a novel and practical manner at Hall
fax. The harbor there is often diff
cut of access, especially during
storms, and as a result many vessels
have been wrecked while approaching
it. Mr.. A. F. Hamilton has now in
vented an apparatus with the object of
facilitating the approach to the harbor
and thus minimizing the danger of
shipwrecks.
The apparatus consists of what may
be called an electric buoy on which
is a bell connected with the land by
means of a submarine cable. In adj
dition to the bell the buoy is intended
to hold a Marconi transmitter from
which signals may be sent from land
to a distance of four or five miles.
Now the inventor asserts that in this
manner all vessels provided with re-
ceivers suitable for wireless teleg-
raphy can not only be readily warned
of danger as they approach the coast,
but can also ascertain their exact stu
ton if they will only pay heed to the
signals transmitted.
The inventors intention apparently
is to have a buoy placed in each spot
where there is the most likelihood of
peril and to have signals sent by the
Marconi system of wireless teleg-
raphy whenever there is any danger
of a storm. The successful manner in
which the Marconi system worked
during the international yacht races
has satisfied Mr. Hamilton that it may
be relied upon to do good service in
connection with his buoys.-N. Y.

The Theory of HEARING.

In the Physiological Section of the
British Association DR.. Albert Gray
Glasgow read paper on THE The
DRY of Hearing" His view of the func-
ton of the cochlea, as set forth in his
paper, is like that of Helmholtz, that
sound is analysed into it's simple con-
stituent tones by the basilar mem
brane. The result of this analysis is
that variations in pressure on the
nerve examinations will occur, and that
these pressure variations are analysed
in the central nervous system. In
support of, the theory he puts forward
he cited the close analogy which it
shows between the sense of hearing
and that of touch. 1t further explains
the existence of noise as distinguished
from musical sounds, and the fact
that under certain circumstances the
ear is able to perceive differences of
phases.-London Daily News.

homes CONCESSION.
Catholic Sisters Permitted to Attend
Outside Lectures In Secular Garb.

Advocates of the higher education
of women are surprised by an unex-
pected and extraordinary concession
from that most conservative OF au-
thorities, the Pope. The head OF the
French teaching Sisters of the Sacred
Heart, a very progressive woman,
went before the Vatican authorities
not long ago with an educational plan
by which the noyices of the order
were to be allowed to take normal
school course outside their convent
restrictions and taught by outside up
to-date professors.
Some eminent French ecclesiastics
favored the idea, but in Rome it was
frowned upon, and formal refusal
was given to permit its application.
A much more important and wide
reaching concession has now been
made by the Pope in favor of the Mar
celline Sisters, the most educational
of all the religious communities in
Italy. They are not only allowed TO at
tend the lectures in the public uni
yersities of Rome, mingling there
with laymen and listening to lectures
by professors of every mental order.
but they doff their religious dress to
do so. When they return to the con-
vent in the evening they put on their
religious habit again.
The congregation of Sisters is COM
paratively new. They applied TO the
Pope for appreciation in December,
1896. He has just given them defin-
tie sanction as a community with sim
pie vows, the decree being published
by the Cardinal Project of Bishops
and Regulars the last week in Octo-
Der.
Here in New York there has been
trouble with the State authorities
where Sisters taught in some of the
public schools in the interior cities
wearing their religious garb A solu-
ton of the difficulty may be found in
this new precedent established in
Rome.-N. Y. Herald.

The Piano Fixture.

People who are bothered by young
musician practicing on the piano may
be somewhat consoled by a knowl-
edge of some of the many devices
which have recently been patented for
the use of such students. Recently an
apparatus closely resembling thumb
screw was put on the market and was
endorsed by some music teachers as
calculated to greatly increase the
reach of piano players. Now a piano
players harness is given to the world,
with equally strong endorsements. 1t
is intended to prevent pupils from
dropping the wrists too low and is fit
ted with handouts and an adjustable
strap, which passes over the Shout
ders. While sustaining the hands in
the proper position for lingering the
keys of piano it is yielding to suf-
ficient extent to permit the hand to
reach all the octaves of the keyboard.

A Provident Requirement.

Germany has law, which has been
in force for ten years, which requires
that every man with an income of
$3.50 or over must insure his life
against sickness and old age The
number of people thus insured was re-
ported last year at 100000. AS far
as can be learned conditions of health
have had little to do with ability to
secure the insurance. The insurance
companies seem to have found it a
matter of economy to adopt proven
tive measures. and have erected a
great sanitarium for the treatment of
their sick.

MODISH OPERA GLASSES,

The Gases for Them Are VERY smar
Too.
The new opera glasses show SIN all
mounts, not too heavy to be held by
the slender wrist of young girl at

Republic. One serious trouble to the
older fashioned opear glasses is their
weight, making it fatlguing for women
to hold them up for long time. The
lorgnette is the resource, or has been
heretofore. but now the new French
glasses seem to supply exactly what is
needed. They have the adjustable
shape which is necessary to bring an
object in range, either near or further
on. This advantage is lacking in the
lorgnette. The frame of the new glass
is small and extremely light Of weight.
The cases for the new opera glasses are
very smart, indeed, and are as different
as possible from the leather case or the
broeaded bag lined with satin. The
new case is made of crocheted heads in
changeable eolors. It has a purse ton
with lid, under which folds a metallic
fence, which is flexible enough to COM

Time was when the word plague"
filled every heart with horror Amer
lea has never been devastated by the
fell disease and now when a vessel
from Brazil has arrived at New York
with several cases on board there is
nothing to fear, for they have been
promptly quarantined. The black
death" as the plague has been appro-
priately named. is always present in
Asia, where native ignorance and dis
regard of cleanliness have rendered
it epidemic. Europe, which was peri
odically decimated by this fatal putrid
fever, has got rid of it by proper at
sention to sanitation. The United
States with its good drainage, good
living and the accompanying increased
vitality has nothing to fear from the
presence of few isolated cases at the
New York quarantine.
