Weather Bureau
Wireless Telegraph

Washington. Feb. S.--A new system
of wireless telegraphy has been devel-
oped by the weather bureau.
1T is q success" said Willis S. Moore,
chief of the bureau. We have been eX-
perimenting for year at Cobb slsland,
in the Potomac river, seventy miles be-
low Washington"
I'VE have completed an apparatus
that We expect will enable us to signal
ships 500 miles or more out at sea. We
shall soon send out ships equipped with
receiving instruments. We have just
completed station at Roanoke, N. c.,
and will soon have stations at Hat
teras and Cape Henry.
I'VE have succeeded in telegraphing
perfectly with our wireless system for
sixty miles over rough country
around Washington. That ! believe is
fully equal to the best transmission
that has ever been accomplished by the
Marconi method. Our system is quite
distinct from his and is being devel-
oped along our own lines.
! I'VE succeeded in sending messages
for some distance from a staff only
three feet high. We established regu-
lar communication between the lab
oratory and Washington, sixty miles,
One OF our men has farm near Fort
/ Myer, Va, just across from Washing
ton. staff one hundred feet high was
on the place, and at the top we placed
our instruments. We were able to COM
municate with the Island as regularly
and as frequently as though we were
working over wire. The speed of the
waves was practically that OF light.
I'VE used system Of dots and
dashes and our receiver was of the
( 'sounder' type. We read messages by
sound. We expect, however, to develop
n receiver that will record messages
Notwithstanding our success 1t does
not seem that wireless telegraphy is
developed yet to the point where II
can be used for ordinary commercial
purposes on land. The earth disturb
ances and the conditions that sur
round cities would prove obstacles"

BLOOD AND IRON.

You could not live an hour without iron in your blood.
 You could not get the benefit of one breath of air without this same iron
 The blood runs the circuit of the body every three minutes. and when it reaches the lungs each atom of iron takes two atoms of oxygen back with it to keen tba fires of life going. This oxygen destrovs waste matter and helps to restore voIIr wasted tissues.
 If your blood lacks iron, you lack that much of life; you fail that much to keen up the needed repair of your bodies-that is, you get run down and sick This ac- counts for the giving properties of Dr. Harters Iron Tonic if sunnIies iron and to do that is to restore the fuII ho6W building power to the blood This iron has peculiar life-quickening function. vitality goes down whenever any pronor, tion of the iron is lacking Vieor and strength return just as surely when this element is restored.
 Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic helps sick or tircd-out people quickest because it con tains the particular blood making and strength-giving form of iron that the system needs. This remedy purifies and enriches the blood, 1t increases the ac- tivity of the stomach, liver and kidneys. II overcomes nervousness and builds up vitality and strength It agrees with the most delicate and deserves your confi- dence because 1t has been doing all these | things for foTty-fve years.

Selma's Sensation.

Referring to the Mccoy Councilman case. a certain gentleman has stated that he saw a check made out in a Council mans name and signed by Mccoy, and he Is willing to take the stand and swear to 1t if an investigation is ordered. He says he does not care to have his name mentioned unless the matter becomes necessary in an investigation.
 One of the city Councilmen has all of the newspaper clippings bearing on the subject and he proposes to read them at the next sitting of the City Council and demand an investigation.
 There is a great deal of talk here about the alleged taking of "blood money by Councilman. and the matter has reach- ed such stage that it cannot be seen now how an investigation can be avoided. even if that course should be determined on by the Council

It is expected that before another year rolls round, the B., S. and N. o. will have been extended across the Tom Bigbee River, thence to Meridian and on to West Point, Miss.

 Thomaston is to be congratulated on getting the road completed to that place after so many amazing delays. The mer- chants of that place will buy largely in Selma, and it can but be of great benefit to the wholesale merchants of this city.
