the improved system that resulted from
their combined researches was given
the compound name II now bears. the
"Slaby- Arco"
Professor Saby's most recent utter
ance on wireless telegraphy is OF great
interest. not only because II throws
light upon the probable workings of the
new discovery I'm the near future. but
also because Il contains protest
against what he calls the possible
"commercialism" OF the great finven-
tion or it's being used for the exploita-
tion of private or corporate interests as
contradistinguished from its rightful
use as a public benefit In the first
place, he says, wireless telegraphy will
In no event interfere with the cables
and II is simply ridiculous for the
shareholders OF cable stock. TO become
alarmed. When the electric light was
introduced, holders OF gas stock were
, frightened. but the result has been
that gas is now used more generally
and in larger quantities than before
electricity was introduced. There is
no danger. i'm my opinion. that the wire
less spark telegraph system will ever
supplant the submarine cable, for the
world is large enough for both systems
without their conflicting In the least.
The chief objection to transoceanic te-
legraphy by ether waves Is that such
strong currents as are necessarily used
by Marconi In sending messages over
great distances would interrupt commu-
nication over the entire area OF trans
mission. When two boards are tuned
TO receive or send messages and a
heavy alien current comes along. il pos
itively destroys communication. A case
in point. for instance, may be cited In
the attempt OF the operators of the
Slaby-Arco system on board the
Deutschland on a recent homeward trip
TO pick up our station at Cuxhaven.
Communication was constantly inter
rupted by some operator or operators
on shore sending out the letter "

have happened he says. 10 a ship in
distress as well as TO one merely desir-
ing an interchange of friendly mes
sages, and i'm this manner the mere RI
valry of two systems might result in
loss of life and property. In this con-
nection one cannot help recalling that
Marconi himself was the victim or the
real or affected jealousy OF a cable COM
pany when he was experimenting in
Newfoundland and that he gave vent
to an outburst of righteous indignation
thereat. Now that the shoe is on the
other foot" and there is rivalry between
the different companies using the wire

to be virtuously indignant at the i'm
fringement" OF it's rights.
Further complications have arisen
and sort of triangular contest Is prom
lsed by the claim of another wireless
company. the Braun. also German, that
both Marconi and Slaby are infringing
upon its patents. The charge is made
that Professor Slaby. as a special ia
vorite OF the kaiser, has been granted
privileges i'm which il at least ought
to share. The outcome may be a suit
at law i'm which the rival claims will be
subjected to examination and the mat
ter finally decided.

claims the fact that il should be held

The kaiser always wears a queer old

Two Four-Footed Fighters.

Pedestrians along Light Street near
Camden recently were witnesses to brief
but spirited fight between a pig and a
ram. The animals were brought to the
city on one of the Light Street steamers.
and were being taken in wagon to some
butcher establishment The wagon was
an open one. and the pig was one of sew
eral that were confined in a crate. while
the ram was tied by rope which was
fastened to the side OF the wagon.
Whether the pig had previous grudge
against the ram and forced its way out of
the crate. or whether the ram endeavored
to Illustrate the porker's attempt to es-
cape is not positively known. At any
rate, the attention of the driver was at
tracted by a noise in the rear of the
wagon, and he saw that the pig had got
ten out OF the crate. through the open
ing on top, and that 1t and the ram were
going at each other at lively rate.
The driver quickly fastened the top OF
the crate so that no more of the squeal-
ing occupants could get out. and then
struggle the rope by which the ram was
fastened broke, and the two animals fell
to the street, where the fight was con-
tinued. The driver attempted to separate
them, but they went at each other again.
They repeated this several times. until

assisted the driver in separating the
crappers-Baltimore American.

Numisnatic Pure Solved

An old story concerning strange coin
found in the muscle of a clam has been
going the rounds Of newspapers. ]. e.
Turner, Of Minneapolis, explains the mys-
terry which has puzzled coin collectors of
the East.
1t was this: John W. Woodward. Of
New Haven, has a friend who summered
last year in New Haven. One morning he
caught a clam five inches in length. Mr..
Woodward. in search Of a pearl or some
thing of chance value, opened IL and
found imbedded in the flesh a non edible
substance, which upon examination
proved to be strange coin. 1t apparently
was bronze. On one side was the head
of the late Queen Victoria and the date
1858. About the edge was the inscription:
Victoria, Queen of Great Britain" The
reverse side showed woman seated at a
table, and about the edge of the coin the
words: Keep Your Temper" The piece
was slightly smaller than the Canadian
quarter.
Mr.. Turner Is the first to illuminate
the identity of the mysterious piece. His
grandfather, VS. ago, sent him from
Oxford. England, several of the pieces
They are whist counters of the style in
vogue in the ffties. On the bright coin

to the whist lovers of the day.
How the clam got the counter can only
be surmised. 1t is presumed that some
lobster wearied of whist handed 1t to the
clam as a bid to keep his mouth shut
when poker was substituted for the sill

The agreement was drawn up in writing.
and signed by each. The third day after

had never before felt the need of drink
quite as badly as after the ink used in

idea was hailed as a born lawyer, who
