WIRELESS MESSAGES.
Lucnnia sends md Receives Many
by Marconi system.

SIASCoNSET, Mass, Aug. 17.-That
communication by wireless telegrnphy is
now established permanently between
Nantucket South Shoals lightship and
the station here was proved early last
evening when messages were received
announcing the arrival in American wa
tiers of the Cunard line steamship Du-
cania.
lhe message telling of the approach OF
the Lucania marks new era i'll the
maritime world 10y the establishment or
this system. Frictds of those on board
incoming passenger steamers may get
news of their approach more than IL
hours sooner than they could from the
observer mt Fire Island. Farewell mes
sagcs may be transmitted from outgoing
vessels similar length of time after
lassing Fire Island.
The Lucana was expected to send
word to the Nantucket lightship of her
passing some miles south of that point
about . O'Clock yesterday afternoon.
There was II crowd of newspaper men
and operators at the little station here
ana rs the afternoon wore on and no
word was received the watchers began to
fear that something had happened to the
apparatus ON the steamship. Just about
& o'clock the sudden ringing of the call
hell ON the operators desk awoke every
body TO realization that the ship was
within signaling distance.
W. W. BudHcld. the Marconi oper-
ator, sat down at his instrument and re-
ccvod notice that the Lucania had sig
nailed the li-ht>hip and that messages
were to follow. Then the messages began
to be recorded upon the tape at the rate
of ten words a minute in dots and dashes
which only the skilled operators could I'M
derstan1 The messages from the people
on the steamer were quickly translated
and tclpphonod to the telegraph station
at Nantucket and thence were telegraph
ed to the mainland and their ultimate
destination The Lucnpla evidently slow
ed down to allow the messages to be
Transmitted. for the Instruments were
still ticking at $50 o'clock last night.
The system worked perfectly. and there
seems to be no reason for surprising that
wireless biography as applied here is not
Il success.

LARCHMONT, n. Y, Aug. 1.-THE
Constitution drifted across the finish line
yesterday afternoon winner by 31m.

time. however, does not represent the
difference in speed between the two
yachts, for very large part of the big

sttution was rounding the first mark
Both yachts had come up from the home
mark on a broad reach with a southwest

As they approached the stake boat

her out into the middle of the sound,
while the Columbia was making fer the

GRIPS RAVAGES
After-Effeets IRE Often Worse than
the Trouble Itse1f-Hou They
May Be AVOIDED and Good
Health Restored
From the Journal, Kansas city, Mo.

Following every epidemic of the grip
there remains a trail of after effects
which are often worse than the trouble
itself and which seem to bafne all eff
forts of physicians. A specific, how
ever, has been found which not only
will quickly restore the health after
an attack of grip and eXpel the linger-
ing germs, but, working through the
blood, will render the system proof
against the disease. In hundreds of
cases it has been shown that Dr. Will
Jams Pink Pills for Pale People have
many recent cures is that of Mrs. ].
B. Shaw, of POL Bellefontain avenue,
Kansas City, Mo-, who says:
when the grip was epidemic here
was one of its victims, and the dis
case left me in bad state. 1 formerly
had an excellent memory, but after the
attack l could scarcely remember any
thing. I had severe pains in the top
and back of my head, and was dizzy
by spells. 1 would lie awake until
nearly morning and then fall into a
sleep that was not restful. My heart
action was weak and 1 was a victim
of nervousness. In fact, my health
was shattered by the attack of the
grip and recovery seemed hopeless.
after being afflicted in this man
ner for several weeks, 1 happened tc
read an advertisement of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People. Thinking
they might do me good, 1 began taking
them at once. In three days I was
much better and could sleep like 6
child at night. After using box Of
the pills my memory was restored and
felt greatly encouraged. continued
taking them until I had used three
boxes, and was in better health thar
had enjoyed for several years.
eff a stamped envelope is sent for re-
ply 1 will gladly answer all inquiries
relating to my case"
