WHOSE WIDOW is SHE7

When a man dies and the widow
marries again, and the second hus-
band dies, whose widow is she-of
the first or second husband, or
both? That was the question re-
Gently before the pension authori-
ties at Washington. The widow of
the federal soldier was drawing a
pension az such a widow. She mar
ried again and the pension stopped.
Then the second husband died and
the widow made application for re.
instatenent az the widow of the
first husband, and the claim was al
lowed. Consequently, under the
ruling, soldiers wife is not the
widow of any but her first husband.

WIRELESS TELEGPATHY.
Two 0alena Boys Think They Have
Perfected the Real Article.

It may be that two Galena boys
have perfected wireless telegraph
continuance. The lads are Charles
Lusk, the 16-year.old son of A. J.
Lusk, and Robert Liddell Jr., the Is
year.old son of Rev. Liddell.
The two boys, both of whom have
a natural liking for things electri-
cal, have been working on their in
vention the past six months. They
have read up on every electrical
authority they could get hold OF
and have talked with every electric
ian of the town. At last they be-
lieved they have figured out all the
details and went to work on their
receiving stations" These were
completed in a crude form Satur.
day and the first test of the ma
chimes was made that evening. The
result was 30 successful the boys
were nearly wild with joy. The re-
ceiving stations are at 203 East
Fifth street, Sew. Liddelps home,
and liz Joplin street, Mr.. Luck's
residence, distance of about four
blocks separating the two ma
chimes. In the test made Saturday
night, Mr.. Lusk sat in his home and
dictated a message to be sent to
Rev. Liddell at his residence four
blocks away. The message was re-
ceived as sent and the answer from
Rev. Liddell was correctly received
at the Lusk residence. The boys
use the regular Morse telegraph
code, and ordinary telegraph in
struments. On top of each house
is large piece of flat tin; connect
ing with these are wires leading
down to the telegraph instruments.
There are also wires leading into
the groun to give ground current.
The sending power" 10 furnished
by two large induction coils, which
the boys also made, and ordinary
jar-batteries are used. The Sound
waves" in passing through the air
strike the large sheets of tin and
the vibrations aae repropuced on
the telegraph instruments.
The boys are greatly elated over
their success and they have good
reasons to be. It remains to be
seen how far these sound waves
can be sent and received. The boys
intend to try to communicate with
each other from Columbus to Ga.
lena. One of them will take his
apparatus and go to Columbus.
They will get permission to work
from the top of the stand-pipes in
these two towns and are confident
that they can get their messages
through.
The boys will make another test
of rheir device tomorrow afternoon
for the benefit of two Times re-
porters, one of whom will be To-
Gated at each end of the line and
will dictate messages to each other.
