MARcoNrs WIRELESS STATION.
Where the Inventor Has Been Con.
Quoting Experiments.

Where the Inventor Has Been Con-
Quoting Experiments.
The wireless telegraph station at
Table Head, Glace Bay, near Sidney,
N. S.. where Mr.. Marconi has been con-
Quoting experiments with a view to
proving the possibility of sending mes
sages across the Atlantic, is altogether
different from those originally erected
for his first tests. At Signal Hill, New
foundland, where Marconi succeeded in
obtaining faint signals sent across the
ocean from the station at Poldhu, Corn
wall, the messages were received by
means of single wire sustained by
a kite, whose unsteadiness made it dill
cult to obtain uniform results. One or
two balloons which he tried for the
same purpose escaped. Before the close
of 1901 station was erected at Cape
Cod, Mass, consisting essentially OF
a great circle of poles which were to
sustain the vertical wires, but the con-
struction was inadequate and the poles
soon blew down. At Poldhu there was
also a circle of poles originally, but
this too met with a mishap. The sta
lions at Polhu and Cape Cod were

Furniture Vans,

Arrangements have been made by a
New York company to ship household
goods in vans from any city in the
United States to any part of Europe.
Goods once placed in the vans are
not unpacked until arrival at the de-
sired point, where the van is taken
charge Of by the agents Of the COM
pany. New vans are to be built to
meet the requirements of transat-
lantic trip. They will be built quite
strong in order to withstand the strain
of hosting on shipboard when loaded
and are to be covered with a thin
sheeting Of steel to protect the con-
tents from dampness while on ship

Modern Society,"" of London, won
| ders how the American women can be
content to be the wives of mere dollar
sharks" What kind of home is it,
asks the paper, where the man is at
the daily grind by 8 a. m. and hardly
sees his home in his haste to get dol
| lars?" How does the American man"
it asks further, accumulate money as
fast as his wife spends it," These
questions must make any American
smile, particularly the last one. Nc
! doubt, Modern Society would be pleas
ed to be able to tell it's readers how Il
make money as fast as the America
does But it would be of no advantage
to them to know the recipe. The ETH
cacy is not in that, but in the spirit ana
the conditions. AS matter of fact,
and Notwithstanding the European be-
lief to the contrary, the man IN THIS
country strives no harder to make
money than do the men of Europe. The
average European works lifetime, as
hard and as effectively as he knows
how, for a competence. We put more
intelligence and enthusiasm into the
strife than they do and our industrial
conditions and resources are more IA
yorable than theirs, but the longing for
money is no stronger here than else
where. 1t is doubtful if it is as strong.
All things are planned and executed
on a large scale in this country
wealth creating among the rest. Eu-
ropeans may imagine we live an in
tense life narrowed down to the one
aim of getting rich, but they imagine
wrongly We take our business affairs
no more seriously than they do their
own Ours are larger and broader
than theirs, but SO are our men larger
and broader than their men. We car
~ the big load quite as lightly and
good deal more joyfully than they do
the light one And American women
do not suffer neglect. Money opens the
way to broader social life for the
average American woman than is even
dreamed of by the average woman of
Europe. The American wife, even
among the less well-to-do classes, has
home Of her own to look after and
to take pride in. She does not drudge
and dree her life away in a small shop
OF in the field, as unnumbered thou
sands of her European sisters do. She
has time and means for as broad an
outlook as that of her husband. She
is not merely his wife, but his equal
and his comrade.

porters write it. The lady herself
signs: III. NJ. Queen Lilioulalani."
Mrs. Doninis is locxSed at the Ebbett
House at the capital and with her
lobby is waiting fol- Congress to give
her 100000 as compensation for
crown lands confscated by the Hawa-
ian republic. She will doubtless wait
long time. "Queen Zip is the victim
of her own perverseness. Whether on
the throne or off she has conspired I'M
til she alienated her best friends. In
trying to disfranchise all except the
natives she alienated the tax payers,
95 per cent of whom favored her reign.
She kept the HaWaiians in a constant
turmoil. Even when this woman was
dethroned because her government
was intolerable she was treated with
great clemency. She was given q large
income and the crown lands were left
intact But the queen persisted. she
struggled fire arms and organized re,
volt. Her dynamite plot, by which she
sought to kill hundreds of innocent
men, women and children was most
diabolical. The woman does not need
money. If Congress should pay this
sum large part of it would go to
LOBBYISTS. She has forfeited all claims
and should retire from public gaze
Besides, God is tired of Queens.

THE Missing Requirement.

"With all her faults signs the hen
pecked husband. II love her still"
All, some touch Of the olden glamour
of love has been waited in upon his
aching heart!
The witchery of affection once again
is manifesting itself.
What an inspiration! To hear him
declare thus, after all that he has
endured! But listen-he speaks fur
Their:

AS regards service, ping-pons is
about to have it's rules radically alter
ed in England, and probably the same
rules will follow here. In future the
server shall play the ball on to his
own court, making it bounce once
thereon, thence over the net to his
opponents court. This is expected
to obviate all the difficulties hitherto
experienced by umpires in deciding
whether a particular service is irreg-
ular. 1t will also put check on ex-
tremely fast service.

England is years ahead of us in

American generals who inspected the
German army maneuvers and We're en-
tertained in London on their way back,

telling hundred years ago, and shewill
never catch up" The generals, famous
story tellers, carried a batch Of good
stories abroad, and told them to kings,
lesser nobilities and grizzled warriors,
TO the great joy of the hearers and the
general benefit of humanity. This is a
kind of American invasion that rouses
no protest from press or Parliament;
yet we shall find it much easier to do
business with commercial rivals after
they and we have laughed together.

A great New York church has q mod
ern pawnshop connected with its par
ish house. Last year the loans reach
ed the large sum of eighty thousand
dollars. The rate Of interest charged
is one per cent a month"; small frac-
ton of that charged by the profess
sional leaders. That it is the worthy
and honest who are helped by the
scheme is proved by the fact that of
the two hundred thousand dollars lent
during the last three years, less than
seven hundred dollars has been lost.
OF course strict business principles are
observed ii the shop, but there is al
ways sympathetic heart behind the
method, and the loan may be followed
by that personal friendship and SER
vice which are for the distressed at
once safeguard and blessing.
