LONDON, Aug. 9.-The following
lucid explanation of the principles of
electric space biography was given by
G. Marconi in an address recently deJ
livered before the Royal institution.
The remarks of the great inventor are
necessarily compressed here in order
to meet space requirements.
1.-THE method of space biography, of
which 1 intend speaking, is founded on
comparatively new way of cOntroH-
ing and detecting certain kinds of
electric waves, much slowed in rate of
vibration than light waves, called
Hertzian waves, after the scientist
who first demonstrated their exist
ence The mathematical and expert
mental proof by Clark, Maxwell and
Heinrich Hertz of the identity of light
and electricity, and the knowledge of
how to produce and detect certain
previously unknown ether waves,
made possible this new method of
communication. I think 1 am right
in saying that the Importance of the
discoveries of Maxwell and Hertz was
realized by very few, and even, per-
haps, so recently as a year ago a great
number of scientific men would have
hardly foreseen the advances which
have been made in so brief a time in
the art of space telegraphy.
Modified Hertzian OsciIIator.
The transmitter consists of a modi-
fed form of Hertzian oscillator, the
main feature of which is in having
one sphere of the spark discharger
earthed and the other connected to an
elevated capacity area or to a compar-
atively vertical wire The two spheres
are also connected to the ends of the
secondary winding of an induction coil
or transformer. When the key is
pressed the current of the battery is
allowed to actuate the spark coil,
which charges the spheres and the
vertical wire, which, when discharg-
ing, causes a rapid succession of
sparks to pass across the spark gap.
The sudden release caused by the
spark discharge of the electrical strain
or displacement created along by the
charged wire causes some of the cleo
trical energy to be thrown off in the
form of displacement wave in the
ether, and as a consequence the Verti-
cal wire becomes a radiator Of cleo
trio waves. In this connection it is in
tereSting to remember that Lord KEEL
vim showed automatically more than
forty years ago the precise conditions
under which such a discharge as we
are considering would be oscillatory.
It is easy to understand how, by
pressing the key for longer or shorter
intervals, it is possible to emit long
or short succession of impulses or
waves which, when they influence a
suitable receiver, reproduce on it
long or short effect, according to their
duration, in this way reproducing the
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1902-08-10

sonance, essentially depends upon the
accumulated effect of a large number
of small Impulses properly timed. Tun-
ing can only be obtained if a sufficient
number of these timed electrical i'm
pulses reach the receiver. AS Prof.
Fleming so graphically puts it in one
of his lectures on electrical oscillations.

have to do with sound waves, and
wireless biography with ether waves,
but the action in both cases is similar.
1t is very important to take into con-
sideration that the one essential condi-
ton which must be obtained in order
that a well-marked tuning or electri-
cal resonance may take place. Elec-
trical resonance, the mechanical re-

AN HONEST MAN.
ed at once

There is one honest man in Gu
lumbus. There may be a thousand,
but the Progress is banking partlcu-
larly on on this mans honesty.
The Commercial of that city the
other day had an editorial calling
attention Of parents to the fact that
many of their boys were toting pIs-
tolls in that part of their pants on
which should be applied vigorously
a twc-inch board. OF course many
of the parents did not believe the
statement so far as it applied to their
boys, nor did this honest man we
speak of, but he concluded TODD q
little detective work on his own hook
and have the pleasure of saying that
all newspapers are liars anyhow. So
one night-but we will let him tell it
in his own words through the col
umns of the Commercial:
II read your editorial Sunday
morning headed, 'Disgrsceful,
Shameful and 1 presumed, as other
parents, the reference to the small
boy carrying pistol did not apply
to mine, but during the day the sub
ject weighed on my mind SO that /

on my front veranda and when my
boy came out, presumably starting to
church, called him to me and, as /
bad often done when he was smaller,
pulled him fondly into my lap.
! Without intimating the object of my
affection I made it convenient to rub
my hands over his body, and you can
imagine my horror when I discov-
cred that my boy was among the
number who are carrying pistols. l
would not have believed it had I not
seen it. My boys excuse was that
all the boys, nearly, have them and

must and will use other means be-
sides the slow progress of the law to
put a stop to the unlawful proceed
ings of these tramp niggers and 9TH
ers who form secret societies Tor the
purpose of stealing, robbing and
numbering. This is the case near
Tupelo as the reports have 1t, and
such CARNATIONS exist in other
sections of the state, only waiting
for an opportune time to burst forth.
The officers should do their duty
now. They should make every loaf
ing niger and white man work OF
walk and see that the act is perform
ed at once.

help of God never will have another,
or if he does he will not keep it very
lsng for / intend to break him of the
habit.
II thank you for your editorial and
| hope that every parent In Column
bus will take the same steps which /
have or some other, to break up the
nefarious habit"
There may be no such doings in
Hattiesburg, but there are some
mighty bad boys here-boys mean
enough to be guilty of worse crimes
than carrying pistols-and it would
be we'll enough for parents to keep a
watchful care over them.

THE SMALL VOTE.

The first primaries held in this
state last Wednesday for the nomi-
nation of congressman, four in all,
were remarkable for the small vote
that was cast and many persons are
attempting to explain the matter.
Throughout the entire four districts
not half the number of registered
votes were cast and at some pre-
cincts no vote was cast at all. This
indifference to exercise the franchise
granted the voter can partly be ex-
planned by the fact that the farmer
was busy and had no time to leave
his cotton field, which at present is
getting white with the fleecy staple,
to cast his vote, but this argument is
not good considering the fact that
the voters of the towns and cities,
who nave no cotton fields and who
could have well left their business
for a few minutes to vote, failed to
go to the polls in any considerable
number.
The main reason, however, lies in
the fact that the state Is solid demo-
cratic and every candidate for Office
is democrat, and it being an off
year in politics, there being no ma
tional ticket in the field, very much
of the interest in the selection OF
men for congress was lost. In three
districts where the candidates had
no opposition at all the vote was
very light, showing that this state
ment is true. In this district all the
candidates are true democrats and
prominent gentlemen and hence
there was little interest manifested
and consequently a small vote was
cast.
During the maladministratio OF

JOHN SHARP WILLIAMS.

The reports from the eighth con-
gressional district show that John
Sharp Williams of Yazoo has swept
the district like cyclone.
He carried both a majority of the
popular vote and a majority Of the
electoral vote.
That the voters of the eighth dis
trlct have done the right thing, no
one can doubt.
Mr.. Williams is one of the best
orators in the national house of rep
resentatfves. When he speaks the
whole country listens. He is con-
coded to be one of the finest scholars
and best logicians in that great body.
He gets all there is out of subject
when he undertakes to speak upon
it. He is true southern man and
an honor to his country.
Mr.. Williams name has already
been prominently mentioned fol
speaker of the house in case of demo.
cratic success and he wonld make 8

the republican party in this state ev-
erything that wore pants voted some
twice or three times, but there is no
such opposition now and the voter
does not care much who is the NOM
inee as he is sure to be a democrat.
There is another feature about this
matter that some people perhaps had
not noticed and that is that there be-
ing only one party there is a great
scramble within that party for office
which to a very large extent has nat
urally disguised the voter and
brought about that Indifference to
vote. Our best men never stand for
office for the fact they will not enter
into the fight for greed and glory
where such elements are so cheap.
This was fully illustrated in the gu
bernatorial election when Anse Nc
Laurin was elected governor and the
free silver party held full sway in
this state. Then the best men of the
state took back seat and they have
been holding down that seat ever
since. They saw that it was scram-
BILE, the nastiest one we have had
since the republican party was over
thrown, and they preferred private
life to the entrance of such scram-
BILE.
! Should, however, another party
such as the republican party which
has some prestride and responsibility
with the masses, enter the field it
would naturally bring out our best
men, as that would be very essential,
when the entire vote of the demo-
cratic party would be cast.

WE TOLD YoU so.

Yesterday the Progress contained
an editorial on the dangerous tramp
niger, stating that If he was not
handled by law the people would
have to take the matter into their
own hands.
In today's paper ives read of race
riot now going on at Tupelo in this
state, and yesterday gang of niger
tramps was raided near Meridian,
and we notice in other places where
similar trouble has broken cut in the
state within the past few days.
In the Tupelo riot several white
men were shot as well as many ne
groes, and in the Meridian trouble
one of the officers came near losing
his life at the hands of one of the
tramp niggers who got possession of
the officers pistol.

truthfully predicted that the people
