According to the state department
advices, the German consul general at
Sydney reports that the agricultural de-
partment of Victoria has recently made
experiments with reference to the pres
ervation Of fresh fruits. Pears and
peaches packed in the ordinary boxes
for shipment were subjected to the va
pors Of hydrocyanic gas. The fruits
were then taken out Of the boxes and
separately wrapped In tissue paper.
Some of them were again treated with
the gas, and the whole lot was PLACED
In a dryroom at n temperature OF 40
degrees and kept there for seven weeks.
When the fruits were taken out, they
were in an excellent state Of preserva-
ton. especially those that had been
treated with the gas second time. Not
only the pears, but the peaches, felt
hard to the touch, retained their fresh
appearance and showed no decayed

A Bankers Generosity.

In chapter OF "reminiscences Of Won
Bunsen and his friends, in The Cen
fury, the Hon. John Bigelow tells this
nnccdotc Of Humboldt:
One day he was dining with Men
dclssohn. the banker. and. an unusual
thing for him. was very silent. His
host, renarking it. observed to Hum
boldt that he was sure he must be i'll.
'No." said Humboldt, but | am in
great trouble. Only ten minutes before
leaving my apartment to come here !
received from my landlord a note in
forming me that he had sold the house
In which | reside and that l must
move The very thought drives me to
despair really cannot bear to move
again."
Mendelssohn gradually led Humboldt
into conversation. during which he
found time to write note and receive
an answer to 1t. He then took Hum
boldt aside, and said "By this note
learn that l am now the owner Of the
house in which you reside. The condi-
ton, however, upon which have be-
come its posscssor is that you continue
to occupy your apartment in 1t as long
as you live"

Goats Milk.

Modern Medicine says that goats
milk. contrary to the general impress
sion, differs from cows milk not in be-
ing more digestible. but in being less
digestible and less nutritious. although
it contains a larger amount Of solid
matter than cows milk 1t is indeed
the most indigest!ble of all milk.
Coats milk bias peculiar and unpleas-

OUR AMBITION
To Send Fifty P cpl~
To Buffalo
AT OUR OWN EXPENSE
Bids Fair To Be Realized
In the Present Contest

1t looks now as though the TELE.
GRAMS am bition to send so people to
kutfaiO at its own expense would be
realized. The list is rapidly growing
as the public is coming to realize
the full meaning OF this remarkable
offer.
1t is probable that all Of our read.
e-s have complete understanding Of
the conditions OF the contest but in
case they have not it may be we'll to
say that there is no long drawn out
set Of complicated rules and reguls-
tions.
In brief it is as follows: - "For
every subscription OF the TELEGRAM
that is presented at this office certii-
Gates will be issued in manner SINH
lar to that which was adopted during
the Quaker Range contest: for every
years. subscription will be given GER
liticate emitting the person whose
name it contains to 300 votes, for
every renewal for one year 200 votes
aud Tor shorter periods asmaller mum.
Der Of votes in proportion according
to the tabLlated form below printed.
The person who shall have presented
the largest number Of these votes at
this tiioe before p. m, Aug. 10th
vii he given free trip to buffalo IN
tee manner above described, that is
free transportation and five days enter
,aiDment at tie Altazar Hotel includ-
ing ard and room.
The winner OF this contest shall
have the privilege OF choosing one
otner person to accompany him or
her said persoaato go to Buffalo at
the expense Of the TELEGRAM ia the
the same way.
Bu1 this does not end the affair by
any means. The TELEGRAM proposes
to see that no person who enters the
contest and takes any interest in the
same shall come out a loser. We
therefore make further Involvement
most remarkable and attractive.
Every contestant, outside OF the one
who is victorious, who shall by 5
o'clock p. M, August 3lst, 1907, have
turned in $4,000 votes will also lie
given free trip to Buffalo, including
transportation and beard and room at
the Alcazar Hotel for five days during
the Exposition. If there are so who
take advantage of this extraordinary
offer it will please the management OF
the TELEGRAM SO times more than If
there is but one. The more the
merrier." Don't say You must stay
ut home from the Exposition because
you can't afford to 60. That would
be ridiculous when such an offer as
this one isstaring you in the face.
During the series of Quaker Range
contests given last winter, the small.
est number of votes presented by
winner was $4,000: the largest was
about $4,000. Ia this contest you
have to turn in only $4,000 to be a
winner, and this means the securing
Of the equivalent Of fifty new sueScri'

WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY
Success of Victor Pops New
System Proved.
WILL GO THROUGH THE GROUND.

Earth Waves to BE Used Rather
Than Aerial - Distance No object,
and Communication With America
Only Matter of Detail-Its Safety In
Time of War.
Some exceedingly interesting descrip.
tons of the new system of wireless
telegraphy were given recently at LIE
VeSinet, little suburban hamlet on
the st. Germain-en-Laye road, before
SO or GO spectators, principally repre-
sentatiyes of the Paris press.
The inventors or discoveries of this
system are Colonel Pilowski, an en-
gineer officer in the Russian army, and
NJ. Victor Popp, well known cleo
trical engineer, whose name has been
attached to several useful and valuable
inventions, says the Paris correspond.
ent of the New York Herald. Within
the narrow limits imposed for the ex-
periments the other day they were
complete success.
at lie Vesinet Is of the most primitive
and temporary character, number Of
messages We're dispatched by the trans
hitting instrument In villa in. the
Rue Pasteur and received in another
villa situated about 600 meters dis
tant without the slightest hitch
One striking feature about NJ. Popp's
system Is it's extreme simplicity. No tall
masts are required, as are necessary
with the Marconi method. 1t Is ter
restrial rather than aerial-that Is to
say, the electric waves follow the sur
face of the earth. There is, conse-
quently. nothing spectacular in the APP
paratus. 1t consists simply of two
electrodes separated by distance that
varies according to the distance of the
place with which 1t is desired to COM
municate The negative is placed on
sheet of glass as isoator on the sur
face. The positive is buried in the
earth at a depth of from three and Il
half to four meters. These two cleo
trodeS are connected to the transmit
ting apparatus.
The same arrangement is followed
at the receiving station. This is all
that is necessary for the dispatch and
registration of messages, as was con-
clusively proved by NJ. Popp.
The most astounding claim made by
NJ. Popp for his system is that its "a
dius of action is virtually unlimited,
wireless telegraphy with America, for
example, being merely a matter of de-
tail, such as the distance separating the
electrodes and the energy of the trans
hitting apparatus.
In addition NJ. Popp has devised a
sort of reflector isolator that allows of
the electric waves being compelled to
travel in a given direction.
The possibilities contained in Nj.
Popp's discovery are incalculable In
the first place, the apparatus is so sim
pie that it Is not liable to get out of or
der. 1t is so transportable that four
men can establish telegraph station
In thorough working order within an
hour anywhere. This in the case Of a
city like Paris is a dcsideratum not to
be despised. Furthermore. the absence
Of the telltale tail poles necessary with
the Marconi system is an invalua BILE
advance, as they would infallibly be-
tray to an enemy the fact that Il wire

JAMES j. HILL.
The premier pointed out that the
policy that the government proposed
to adopt was that of making the best
possible bargain for the province. In
reply to this the premier said the Vic
toria. Vancouver&& Eastern had said
to the government: "Give us $4,000
per mile and we will build road, pro
vided we also get subsidy from the
dominion government"
1t was he said, the intention o1
the government to so control the
rates as to derive a percentage of the
profits. He said that the government
could not pin itself down until it
heard from Ottawa. which had been
asked to deal with the province lib.
orally in the matter of railway con.
struction. He might say definitely
that any road which they subsidie'
must build from the mouth of the
Fraser to the boundary country and
the company must provide for daily
ferry from the mouth of the Fraser
and from Vancouver island.
| He then went into the necessity O.
an extension of the island railwa
and for construction of an all Cana
dian route to the Yukon, thus insur
ing the trade of the Klondike to the
Canadian cities rather than to Seat
tie. He said the government is con
sidering proposition to insert 3;
clause in the charter, permitting tn
requirement of the road after a tern
of years on certain terms by the pro
vince. Further, they would compe
, any company which obtained a char
ter to sign an agreement to the et
Z feet that if the dominion charter wer
obtained they would still be amenabl
to the railway laws of the province.
