The Elks Pay Tribute to
 Their Departed Brothers

Elks' Memorial day, on the first Sun day in December of each year, is appro priately observed by all Elks lodges On that day the jovial disposition SC characteristic of Elks is forgotten and the sacred duty of commemOrating the virtues of their departed brothers, in delibly written upon the tablets of love and memory, is assumed by every mem Der of the order.
 In the great city of New York, and all other cities of the United States, there can be but one lodge of Elks, and the services, always in ritualistic form, are the same throughout the United i States.
 On this Memorial day Elks' hall in Yuma is, by the gentle hands of the wives, mothers, sisters and daughters of the members, artistically decorated, and the standard of the services each year is such that on this day, if on any other, Yuma is not surpassed by New York, Philadelphia, Boston, or any other city.
 James Graham, exalted ruler, presid- ed with serenity and dignity beitting the occasion.
 Roll call by John Clark, secretary noted Dr. G. w. Greenleaf, NJ. B. De- Vane, Matt. Flynn and R. J. Duncan, as the absent brothers.
 No memorial service being complete without the quartette, Brothers Ben Heyl, Jack Dunne, Con Cronin and Mel Greenleaf did honor to the occasion. among other selections rendering "Lead Kindly, Light" the favOrite hymn of that valiant American and good Elk, departed. Wm. Mckinley.
 The opening address by Hon. John Doan on "Our Order" pointed out those noble qualities of Elkdom that so often seem hidden beneath spirit of joviality.
 Mir. C. L. Browns eulogy on "Our Departed Brothers" emphasized that pretty motto, "The faults of our broth CTS we write upon the sands: their vir- tues upon the tablets of love and mem ory," and made the audience feel that their departed friends were once more among them.
 The two solos by Mrs. Berg, "Ave Maria" and 'The Holy City," were beautifully sung and gave additional interest to the services.
 The services were closed by the audi ence joining with the quartette in that sacred old hymn, "Nearer, My God, to Thee" followed by the benediction, by Rev. J. A. Crouch.

Mrs. Berg'S Concert.

The musicale by Mrs. Gertrude Berg Monday night in Elks' hall was a re- fined entertainment of high order, and was thoroughly enjoyed by large and intelligent audience. Mrs. Berg has a well-trained voice and her sing ing is characterized by softly thrilling, delicately tender expression most pleas ing to the musical senses. The instru- mental part of the programme was ad- mirably presented, and the audience was prompt and generous with it's ap- probation at all times. Miss Florence Blackman furnished the piano accompa- nimeut to Mrs. Berg's singing and also assisted in duet, the first and one of the best numbers of the programme.
 The presence of such magnificent audience must have been very gratify- ing to Mrs. Berg: it was credit to the town, demonstrating that there is no scarcity of cultured and artisticaliy- inclined people in Yuma, who are will ing to pay their money for refined musical entertainment of the higher f.lasS

Shot by q Maricopa Indian.

: J. B. Ross, who has had charge of 6 pumping station on the s. P. near Mar icopa, was shot through the breast by a drunken Indian yesterday, and died a few hours later after being taken to the hospital at Tucson. The Indian rode up to where Ross was lying on.a cot and asked for a match. Having been accommodated he started to ride away, and then suddenly wheeling his horse around, fired two shots into his victim and disappeared. He has not yet been apprehended. There seems to be no explanation forthe crime except whisky inspired hellishness.

It will be good news to the mothers of small children to learn that croup can be prevented. The first sign of croup is hoarseness. A day or two be- fore the attack the child becomes hoarse. This is soon followed by pe- culiar rough cough. Give Chamber lain's Cough Remedy freely as soon as the child becomes hoarse, or even after the rough cough appears, and it will dispel all symptoms of croup. In this way all danger and anxiety may be avoided. This remedy is used by many thousands of mothers and has never been known to fail. It is, in fact, the only remedy that can always be de- pended upon and that is pleasant and safe to take. For sale at Cotter's drug store.

Some Consultations Of the InventoV d
Wireless TelegraDhy.
P. T. McGrath, editor of The Evening
Herald, st. Johns. N. F.. contributes
to the March Century an article OF
Marconi's work which the inventor au
thenticates in predatory note. Ths
writer says:
In one Of our many talks a. the St
Johns station Mr.. Marconi gave me
this digest of his conclusions:
The wireless agency is most effective
over marine areas. The unbroken sur.
face Of the ocean enables distances to
be obtained and results achieved which
cannot be approached on land. Over
low lying country two-thirds Of the
distance can be reached, but over tracts
where the usual diversified topograph.
zeal features are found the potency Of
the vibrations is reduced to one-half
what 1t is at sea. High hills do not con-
sdtute an obstacle, but the ground it.
self retards the signals. The vibrations
seem to reach slightly farther In fog
than In fine weather; atmospheric con-
ditions do not seriously affect them;
electrical disturbances are their only
foe. Mr. Marconi's later experiments
appear to indicate that pole 200 feet
high gives the best results, as the wire
suspended from it comes into contact
with sufficiently varied atmosphere
strata, while at the same time 1t can be
made thick enough to receive a sub
stant1al electrical influence from the ra-
dating ether waves which are caught
by 1t. With balloon or kite elevated
to an altitude or 400 feet or so the wire
must be very slight, and the ceaseless
swaying Of the upholder also interferes
with the reception of definite signals.
Strangely enough, horizontal aerial
wire is Of no value, gives out no energy
for his purposes and was long ago dis
carded. Nor is it an advantage In ma.
rine signaling to set up the pole or kite
on high hill.
Proximity to the sea is desirable, and |
a low lying spit near the ocean is best. |
Another less interesting circumstance
Is that every piece Of ground will not |
serve for the locating of a station

A SPEAKING LAMP.
Novel Invention Which ReprOducei
Sound Miles Away.

Novel Invention Which Reproduce
Sound Miles Away.
The speaking lamp" is the latest
novelty which has made it's appear
ance in Paris, says the London Elk
press correspondent. 1t is the inven
ton of German professor, improved
and perfected by M. Charles Heller, an
electrical engineer residing in France.
The apparatus consists of an ordina-
ry arc lamp, minus the globe. This
lamp Is placed on a table and is con.
nected on the one hand with a micro
phone, which can be placed at any dis
lance, even miles away. On the cur
rent being passed and the lamp alight
anybody singing or speaking in front
or over the microphone board is imme-
diately heard by everybody in the
room where the lamp is placed The
arc lamp reproduces every sound with
startling clearness. 1t is necessary
however, for people looking at the
lamp to wear smoked glasses, owing to
its intensity.
The invention is decidedly ingenious,
but at present it is difficult to see what
useful purpose 1t can serve, except as
substitute for the theatrophone, over
which it possesses the advantage of al
lowing a hundred or more persons to
listen to concert miles away instead
of only two, as is the case with the
theatrophone. The inventor, however,
is of opinion that at a later period,
when more thoroughly developed, the
speaking light may have great scien
tifc possibilities before 1t
