As the World

For evireIels Messases.

The gigantic stride recently made in
wireless telegraphy, says Frederick
A. Collins, in the New York Herald.
has set inventors to improvishing
more sensitive means for detecting
the etheric waves and given an impe-
tus to designers of the induction coils
by which the waves are sent.
The coil shown in figure l is not
only the largest coil ever constructed
for transmitting wireless messages.
but also gives the longest spark of any
coil heretofore built. This coil will
easily give a miniature streak of
lightning forty-five inches in length,
being three inches longer than that of
the famous spottiswood coil built
some years ago in England. The coil
here shown was built by Philadel-
phia firm Of instrument makers for
the Japanese government and is now
in use in flashing cabless messages be-
tween the Korean peninsula and
Japan.
The object of the induction coil is to
obtain the little flash of lightning, for
it is this spark bursting through the

A METHODIST BISHOP
GIVES PE-RU-NA Great Credit
Writes His Recommendation
for the Famous Catarrh

The day was when men Of promi-
nence hesitated to give their testimon-
ials to proprietary medicines for pub
lication. This remains true today Of
most proprietary medicines. But Pc.
runa has become SO justly famous, its
merits are known to SO many people of
high and low station that none hesi-
tates to see his name in print recon-
mending Peruna.
The following letters from pastors
who use Peruna speak for themselves:
Rev. E. G.. Smith, pastor of the Pres
byterian Church, of Greensboro, Ca,
writes:
my little boy had been suffering for
some time with catarrh of the lower
bowels. Other remedies had failed, but
after taking two bottles of Peruna the
trouble almost entirely disappeared. For
this special malady / consider 1t well

FAST TRAVEL.
The Possibilities in This Direction Dis
cugged,


The Possibilities in This Direction Dis
cussed.
The announcement that n company
has been formed in Germany to build
a system Of electric railways on which
it is expected that passenger trains
will be run at speed of from 100 to
13O miles an hour suggests the marvel
Gus possibilities of the immediate fu-
ture in tie way of rapid transit.
Even at the rate of transit to be
achieved under the German system, a
remarkable transformation will be eff
fected in the methods and customs Of
civilized life. With trains moving at
the rate of $50 miles an hour. all the
region about New York within a ra-
dius extending to Albany would be
brought within the range of suburban
residence. Boston would be brought
within less than an hour and n half Of
New York. Washington within a lit
tie more than that time. Buffalo less
than three hours. Chicago six hours
and San Francisco less than n day.
What such marvellous achievements in
passenger transportation mean for the
industrial and commercial interests Of
the country can be family imagined.
When it becomes possible, for exam
pie, for New York man to make the
round trip to Chicago within twenty
four hours, and have a considerable
period of time for business included, it
may be readily conjectured that the
commercial interests of the country
will be affected by the change to n
very large and serious degree.-Les-

Town to Honor a Chimpanxee.

The municipal council of the French
town of Grenoble has recently voted
large sum of money for the purpose of
erecting a bronze statue to the famous
chimpanzee, named Charlemagne, who
not long ago died there. For nine years
the chimpanzee, which was brought
to Grenoble by an African explorer.
had enjoyed the freedom of the town,
being privileged to enter practically
every house and to help himself to any
thing he fancied in fruit and vegetable
shops. The chief reason of the towns
great regard for the chimpanzee was
that about five years ago he rescued
child from drowning in n well. Char
lemagne had seen everything, and for
him to swing himself over the top of
the we'll was the work of a moment.
Descending by the rope used for the
buckets, he grasped the child and
quickly carried her back to her friends.
climbing up by the rope. Charlemagne
increased his popularity by spending
two hours in the children's hospital OF
the town. playing in different wards
and amusing the children who were all
very fond of him. In such respect was
this chimpanzee held that when he
died the inhabitants of the town fol-

AN ANCIENT SHRINE.
THAT STANDS IN THE HEART OF
ST. LOUIS.
Was Built in 1ssS-One OF It's Founders
Il Still Alive-She Is Called tho
Mother of Methodism in the South
west.

The Oldest Methodist church in st.
Louis, Mo-, is the Centenary Church,
founded in 1889. The old structure is
now undergoing renovation at cost
OF 100000. When October comes, and
the work is finished, a bishop is to at
tend, or perhaps several bishops, and a
rededication ceremony will take place,
which is intended to be the most men,
orable that the denomination has
ever held in that section.
One of the founders of Centenary
Church is still living in St. Louis
Mrs. Mary Gordon Goodfellow. She is
In her S1st year, is in perfect health
and vigor and is known as the Mother
OF Methodism in the southwest. In
Centenary's early days Mrs Goodfel-
low was leader in the Female Cen
tenary Society, which accomplished a
great deal for church work. The So
ciety raised $1,000 a year for many
years. 1t was done by sewing and by
large annual fair and festival. She
says that there was greater readiness
to contribute money 80 years ago than
now. In this connection she tells a
story of the evangelist, John Newland
Maffitt. This minister, who was one
of the most eloquent preachers of his
day, had made a glowing appeal for
funds for Centenary in 1889, and he
promised his st. Louis congregation
that If they would do their part he
would himself contribute $500. He was
not rich man, and it is doubtful If
all his possessions were so much as
$500. He left st. Louis to go to New
Orleans, taking one of the elegant
steamers which piled the river in those
days. The boat was filled with wealthy
planter, and John Newland Maffitt
preached to them. They could not es-
cape from him, even had they wished
to do so, and when, the tears rolling
