"Oh. why was | born a princess In this

THE MULTlPLEX TELEGRAPH.
An Instrument Which Can Accommodate
Ten Messages at Once.

| One set of the multiplex telegraphic In
| struments invented by the late Prof.
| Henry A. Rowland has been compIeted
Tor the German Government by the Row
| land Telegraphic Company. and they NAV
be seen today in the physical Iaboratorv
of the Johns Hopkins University by
those who attend the anniversary exer-
clses. second set is being finished nj
the factory. Ill Linden Avenue, to be sent
TO Germany and installed upon lines he
tween Berlin and Hamburg and Berlin
and Frankfort. The machines now fin
ished Will remain upon exhibition at the
University for about a week
This telegraph enables 10 Operators N
SEND messages over one wire at the sor,a
time. Eight of the messaGes-four in
each direction-can be sent and received
upon machines which print the charac-
ters like typewriter, and two other mos
sages-onc In each direction-cau be sent
by the Morse code. using ordinary kevs
and sounder5. y particular ADVANTAGES
OF the system is that the operators can
see the messages that they send, as thew
are repeated upon the printing apparatus
before them. and II an error Is made II
can be corrected Immediately. The scr
of instruments at one end OF a line Occur
pies about as much space as two roll-top
desks placed side by side
The fundamental principle OF the Row
land system is the use of alternating cur
rents for telegraphic purposes. The ma
chimes work in syuchronism. In order |
that the right letter shall be printed the (
identity of the letter at the two ends of
the line is secured by an automatic let
ter finder. which revOlvos until the proper
point is reached, when il locks aud the
two machines are set with all the key
boards and printers in perfect corre-
spondence. The messages are received
typewritten and ready for delivery. No
operator is required to receive the mes
sages; the machines do that. so that all
the operators are employed in sending.
The company is also engaged in making
for the Italian Government. and
they are to be installed by the first of
July between Rome and Naples.-Balti-

Mrs. Carlyle Is n washerwoman. and
to feed her seven little ones means new

Gently Is evident from the fact that some
OF the older ones are regular attendants

Now. there are sociologists who can SEQ
clearly that it would be to Mrs Carlyle's
advantage If she had fewer-several fewer

at 1t differently. But. as rule, they are
not. and this is why they are prone to be-
iieve that mother of seven children
would not be averse to parting with one
or more of them at any time for the
general good of society.
That Mrs. Carlyle is not n mother likely
TO be influenced by such sociological the

in which she has received a phiIanthropic

MERRY BANQUET BOARD
Celebrate independence in a

Saturday marked the eighty eighth an
niversary of the independence OF Norway,
or 'Norge's Frihedsdag." as Norwegians
afectionately call It. This day is to the
Norwegians as the Fourth of July is to
Americans, and it is similarly celebrated.
In commemoration Of this event the Nor
wegian Society of Washington, which
numbers some three hundred members,
held banquet at Reuters Hotel Satur-
day evening and had most enjoyable
time. The arrangements were in the
hands of a committee composed OF JUL
Dieserud. A. L. Thompson, p p. Larson
and +. ID. Won Encke, and it was largely
due to their efforts that the entertain
