WOMAN SUfFRAGISTS.
Rhode lsIond Association Meets and Listens
10 an Address BY Mrs. Eastman.

The Rhode Island Woman Suffrage as
sociation held a meeting yesterday after
noon In the small hall OF the Y. M. c. A.
the chief feature OF which was an ad-
dress by Miss Mary f. Eastman. promi-
nent woman suffragist OF Massachusetts.
The meeting was called to order at
shortly after 3 o'clock by Mrs. A. c.
Dewing, the president OF the association,
and after the singing OF one OF the suf-
frage hymns the speaker was introduced.
Miss Eastman. In beginning. alluded TO
the seemingly slow growth OF the suf-
frage movement In Rhode Island. but,
she said. "if you are going TO carry a
great movement you will carry IL with
few. / don't feel that small numbers
count exactly in this cause. 1t Is the
quiet power OF the movement that counts
Continuing. Miss Eastman contrasteo
woman's position in the world OF today
with that OF a quarter OF century age
or more to show what really great pro-
gress had been made. And It's all beer
done so quietly" she said. that II any
OF us drop out the work goes on JUS
the same" 1.-THE only obstacle before u'
today" she continued. lis that we arr
still in the grip of the powers that ro,
us OF what should be our rights ant
privileges in government
Miss Eastman believed that one OF TIT
great barriers TO progress was the lax
ity OF women In the subject Of suffrage
and she spoke quite at length on TIT
question OF stimulating interest anon,
the women who don't care"
In this connection she gave numbe
of examples and states OF affairs amonl
many women 90 prove how necessary {
them and TO their welfare was the righ
OF suffrage The lecture was Of mos
interesting character and was delight
| fully interspersed with anecdotes an
witty illusions which served to give
ample illustration and added interest.

The WIRELESS.
W. W. Massle Tells Of the Progress Of the
feW TeIegraphIc System.

An address on wireless telegraphy was
given before waubosset council OF the
Royal Arcanum, in Arcanum har, cor
ner Eddy and Weybosset streets, last
night
Mr.. Massie said that the first steps ta-
ken In wireless telegraphy were by Lind-
say and when he transmitted and recei-
we'd messages across the River Dee IN
Scotland in the early part OF the 18th
century.
The first real coherer was constructed
in 1884, when Edouard Branly discovered
that metal filings when placed In tube
having terminal conductor plugs were
sensitive to feeble oscillations set up By
the impinging electrical waves. To this
he gave the name OF radio-conducter;
Lodge renamed IL coherer.
The first apparatus having all the es-
sentials OF a modern wireless telegraph
receiver was designed by Prof. Popofr in
1896. but was employed by him as a me-
teorological detectot OF distant storms.
Prof. Lodge was the first TO apply the
Observation-Disclosures Taper. which was a
great advance over the method OF tap
ping by hand. The latest detector, In
vented by Marconi. is based on the re-
searches Of Prof. Joseph Henry.

one for a three-sacker. Bender's base run

South Dakota catcher being placed to his
credit. South Dakota was weak at the
bat, Morse holding them to five hits and
