Second Feature Of Experiment.

The second feature of this experiment Is
that this message, sent overland for dis
lance of about thirty six miles, is practical
ly safeguarded from the understanding Of
or interruption by operators at other wire
less stations. This is accomplished by a
system of "syntoniZing' or attuning, which
establishes a sympathetic relationship be-
tween two stations and renders that connec-
ton impossible except between other sta
lions syntonized or attuned to exactly the
same key. For example, the stations In the
local navy yard and that in Annapolis are
now attuned to each other; to interrupt
their signals any other station must first
discover exactly the relationship between
the two operating instruments, and then
Key Its own instrument to exactly the same
pitch. This Is thought to be a practica,
fmpossibility. II may be, say the officials
of the navy yard, that third instrument
might interrupt with occasional letters a
single w or * or some similar signal
but 1t could hardly comprehend the mes
sage or seriously interrupt its transmission
BY all other systems now In use the cleo
trical waves issued from the transmitting
station are the common property Of all
other stations within the reach of the cur
rent; that Is to say. a message sent from
a station in Washington with a wave force
of thirty miles could be read with freedom
by any number of stations within that
radius.
At present this is the greatest obstacle in
the way of commercial wireless electricity.
Without a safeguard against such common
reading OF messages and interference by
rival companies no corporation which un-
dertook to transmit wireless messages for
pay could hope to succeed. The experiments
at these stations of the Navy Department
then open entirely new field to Ameri-
can experimenters In wireless telegraphy.
Board Organized.
A special board has been organized In the
SAyxRspartment to supervise these tests.

A Swarm Of Locusts.

The sheks at each village alWaysfcame
out gravely to salute the travellers, except
at one place, where their arrival was ST.
multaneous with that of a swarm Of To-
Gusts. The insects were on the wing in
a dense cloud, not thick, but spread over
large area.
When the approach of the locusts was
heralded by a watching "rowarra," or gar
dener, the entire population, men, women
and children, started out, armed with
sticks and brush. to literally beat off the
invaders. Smudges were built and lighted
and every inducement was made to the
locusts to move on. Fortunately, for this
particular village, at least they did So.
The locust Of that part Of Africa, like all
tru locusts, is similar to the common grass
hopper. but Is about three inches long. 1t
flies like a bird, keeping on the wing oyer
great distances, and in such numbers that
swarm spreads devastation where it
lights. 1t eats voraciously, devouring any
green thing, and swarm can absolutely
strip an oasis In a short time Hence their
advent Is regarded with CONSERVATION, as
they can utterly destroy a date crop IN a
few hours and this means famine, as there
Is no other crop in the country, the dates
being exchanged for all the necessities of
life At Tuggurt there Is plague of flies,
and the two scientists express hope that
history will not repeat itself during their
stay in Egypt. 49,

falfa, valuable and hardy. The plant was
found in the ruins Of the ancient Roman
colony of Lambessa within the walls Of the
Temple of Aesculapius, and enough seed
was threshed out to start extensive expert
ments in this country next year. Tuggurt

tremely hot at midday, though the daily

Will Return in November.
Mr. Means work is connected solely with
soil surveys and analyses, while Mr.. Kearney
is making original collections Of seeds and
plants to find what will be valuable to this
country, instead Of having to depend solely
on what material the seed dealers may send
to the Department of Agriculture. So far
both have ben successful, and although
they at first feared they would have to
abandon their Egyptian trip on account Of
the presence Of cholera they have determin-
ed to carry out the entire itinerary and
will return in the latter part of November,
when more definite results of their investi-
cations will be announced.

In buying footwear for col
1ege wear take into considera-
ton the climate of the local
ity. Here you find the cor
rect effects in young ladies
and mems shoes for cold,
mild and southern climates in
magnificent variety. The
styles you see here are those
which are shown in New
York and worn by the partlc-
ular people of that city.
We have never before
called your attention to the
new styles in ladies and gen
tlemen's riding boots, golf
footwear, hunting and shoot
ing boots with more conf
dencc that Our variety is the
largest to be seen anywhere
with greater certainty that
our styles are the most cor

The novelties are here as
we'll as the staple effects-ev-
cry leather that is being made

represented.
We take it for granted that
those men who are about to
start out on forestry and sur

the absolute need of water

wear. Such footwear is
shown herein fact, we've
fitted out seven-eighths of
those who have already left.
As always before, this great
