tenn say that both of these difficulties have
been surmounted.
II is true that the etheric waves on
which wireless messages are carried travel
impartlally in all directions. Marconi
could have caught the signals that reached
him in Newfoundland just as we'll if he
had been in Greenland. But no instru-
ment but his own could have recorded
them.
The instrument in Cornwall and the in
strument at ST. Johns were Sin tune" so
to speak, with each other. The one, was
fitted to send and the other to receive a
certain fixed number of vibrations per sec
ond, and no other instruments were so
fitted and adjusted.
The Marconi instruments viii be made
in sets, each set tuned" to its own speci-
fed number of vibrations.
It would be impossible for any instru-
ment TO record messages from any other
instrument that was not made expressly
for the purpose of communicating with it,
The privacy of wireless messages is thus
insured.
Marconi himself disposes of the notion
that the cost of wireless telegraphy would
be prohibitive He is confident that sta
tons can be built at cost not exceeding
$4,000 as an outside estimate. whereas the
cost of an Atlantic cable is about $4,000
900. Marconi believes that by the wireless
system messages can be sent at good
profit for one cent a word; the cable rate
is now 25 cents a word.
If Marconi can succeed in doing any
thing near what he claims that he will
the business of telegraphic communica-
ton across the seas will, of course, be
revolutionized.
Great expectations are fixed upon this
daring young scientist.

Another aLaay or the Tiger" Story.

1t is now twenty years since Frank r. Stock
ton wrote the story of THE Lady or the Tiger,
which brought him immediate fame and which
still remains one Of the finest examples OF the
short story ever written. The editor OF The
Ladies' Home Journal recently wrote Mr.. Stock
ton asking if he would not celebrate The Lady
world which one really was behind the curtain!
Mr. stockton replied that II would be impossi-
HE for him to do this, as he himself did not
know. But he also said that he had just writ
ten a Lady or a Tiger story about a
balloon. and that story will appear in the
March Ladies Home Journal.

Jim Clark's second wife was Luretta
Rice Before she married Clark she re-
ceived some attentions from Luke Hous-

a short time before the shooting but he
could throw no light on the affair.

live together long. This was denied BY
Mrs. HaWley.
There was but one suspicious occur

buggy leading a saddle horse They left

hour after the murder. got the saddle horse
and rode away. Neither of them have
been seen since. No one knows who they
were or where they went, They did not
have any shot gun with them
The detectives who have worked on the
case looked up the record of the sales Of
shot by merchants in Downs, Osborne and
other towns No one can remember Of
having sold any shot of the kind which
was found in Clark's body. A shot gun
which might have been used by the muir
derer can not be found. There are three
houses within a hundred yards of the
Clark home but none of the neighbors
heard the shot. The wind was blowing
strong from the south and carried the re-
front Of the Clark home Some people
working at a mill half a mile away heard
the shot. Some say it sounded like one
shot and others say they heard two dis

don the case leaving it as deep a mys-
terry as ever. A Sherlock Holmes Is
needed to unravel the murder mystery
at Downs.
Mrs. Clark was arrested several weeks
ago and placed under $500 bond. Before
she was to appear for her preliminary
examination the case against her was
dismissed. Several detectives and ali
the peace officers of Osborne county have
been working on the case. The citizens
of the county have interested them
selves. Dozens of theories have been
advanced but with no avail. The part
of the town of Downs, where the muir
der happened, is looked upon with awe.
Until the guilty party is found more or
less suspicion viii rest in the minds of
some on parties who have no know1-
edge Of the deed.
STORY OF THE MURDER.
The murder occurred about half past
ten o'clock. Saturday night, May II.

known and his wife and little boy
were at home in their two room, one
story cottage in the south part of

have viewed the premises but none have
found anything at ali which might be a
clue. They have been forced to aban-
