FAST TELEGRAPHING.

At a recent test in Germany of the Pollak-V Virag system of telegraphy 2 speed of 50,000 words an hour was at tained. In transmitting, this system, like other fast systems, uses a strip of paper previously punched with holes representing dots and dashes The most novel feature of the system is the method of receiving. The incoming electric impulses cause a thin strip of metal, resembling a telephone dia- phragm, to vibrate and thus move q tiny mirror attached thereto. A slen- der beam of light from an incandescenr lamp falls upon the mirror, and is re- fiected thence to a strip of photograph ically sensitive paper, which is steadily unrolled by clockwork when messages come. Chemicals for development" being applied, the paper exhibits a continuous dark line, with upward pro- jections for dashes and downward ones for dots. The messages must then be deciphered and the translation must be written out.

It would be difficult, If not impossi-

of names prior to the Norman conquest,
which created something like a revo-
luton. William" Of course, got a
good start, as is shown in "Doomsday
Book" where stand 68 Williams, 4S
Roberts, % Walters and 10 Johns. In
1173 Sir William st. John and Sir Will
liam Fitz-Hamon entertained q dinner
party at the court Of Henry II. The
invitations we're limited to knights of
the name of William, and the company
numbered 120.
But the day Of John was not long
to larry, and in 1347 the common coun-
Gil Of London contained 35 Johns, IL
williams, Is Thomases, 10 Richards, 8
Roberts, and in 1885 out Of 376 names
enrolled in the Guild Of st. George at
Norwich there were 1913 Johns, Al Will
Hams, Al Thomases. From that day to
this John and William have held their
ground as the commonest baptismal
names in England.
