newspaper was being run off. The next
morning, before the ship reached shore,
every passenger in the first and sec
ond cabins received a copy at the
breakfast table. with the latest news
of the world in ''tabloids." 1t was
printed in nonpareH type with BREWER
headlines The news items referred to
the unsettled condition Of the Venezue-
Ian question, which has since been set
tied by The Hague tribunal, and an
nounced the poStponement of consid-
Grafton Of the appointment OF DR..
Crum, the effect of the coal famine in
New York on the movement of ocean
steamers, the award of the first
Rhoades scholarship. and the Illness of
King Edward from Influenza. The pas
sengers, glad after their week OF iso-
lation to learn how the world was wag-
ging, had been put in touch with it
again before seeing land. At the pres
ent time the chief steamers OF the
Cunard, the American, the French, the
Hamburg American and the Red Star
lines receive news dispatches as they
approach the coast, and put them be-
fore their passengers in some cases in
small four-page papers. Some Of these
papers have names and appropriate il
Illustrated headlines. The paper print
ed on the Cunard steamers is the Cum
ard Bulletin. A part of the first page
is occupied by a birds eye view of
that portion of the globe including the
North Atlantic ocean. From the tops
of towering skeleton towers waves are
shown springing across the interval be-
tween the American and European con-
tinents. which 1t must be said suggest
the springs in jacks IN the box. Four
steamships are crossing in different di-
rections, and between them are small
er springs" taken together, bridging
the ocean. At the head Of the Trans
Atlantic American, issued on the
steamships of the American line, are
words Wireless Telegraphy," passing
in waves from a land station to an
American line steamer.
The news furnished to the bulletins
usually includes the principal sporting
news, the condition of the stock mar
ket, and news of national interest. This
gives the passengers who have made
bets on sporting events like the Derby
an opportunity to settle them before
landing, and those who have an inter-
est in the movement of stocks an OPP
portunity to plan campaign before
they get ashore. 1t is in one Or two
sentence paragraphs. The remainder
of the paper is taken up with notes of
interest regarding the voyage, para
graphs of general interest and the
ships run. On the back are pictures of
the steamships of the line, and space
for writing the address of person to
whom the passenger may desire to send
a paper as souvenir.

The Etruria was the first steamship
equipped with wireless telegraph ap-
paratus to have an opportunity to use
1t in the case of an accident. 1t was in
February. 1902, that the steamers shaft
was broken while she was on her way
to Liverpool from New York. It oc-
CURED an hour after the vessel had
said bood-bye to her sister ship, the
Umbria, by wireless telegraph, the two
vessels then being forty miles apart.
Although an effort was Immediately
made to get into communication with
the Umbria again, it was a failure.
The steamer had passed beyond the
range of the apparatus, and for several
days there was doubt where the
Etruria was. AS today more steam
ships are provided with the apparatus
than then, wireless biography in the
event Of accident would have a better
opportunity to demonstrate its useful
ness.
Wireless telegraphy has proved its
usefulness also as means of determine
ing ones position in relation to the
coast. Capt. D. Hogemann, then in
command of the steamer Kaiser Will
helm der Crosse, on his arrival here
in the winter of 1902. had this to tell
the newspaper men when they boarded
the steamer:
''To show you how valuable wireless
you an incident on a recent voyage Of
the Kaiser. The revolving light on the
Nantucket shoals lightship was out of
order and the two fixed white lights
provided for such an emergency were
shown. 1t was dark, but clear, night
when those lights came into view. We
were doubtful as to whether they were
the Nantucket lights or not. We know
the Nantucket light alone had wireless
telegraph apparatus and sent this mes
sage: Have you two fixed lights?
The answer came back: We have; 9TH
er out Of ORDER"
On that particular voyage the steam
er was in communication with the Luz
cania. which was crossing in the same
direction for three consecutive days.
Another use for wireless telegraphy
was illustrated at that time. "On Mon
day night said Capt. Hogemann,
when on the banks, we fell into a
heavy fog, and twenty miles east of
the banks ran into clear weather again.
We signaled to the Lucania that we
were that distance beyond the banks
and In clear weather. We were then
fifty or sixty miles ahead Of her. The
response which we received was: We
are still in thick fog. Much obliged"
On another occasion the Lucania re-
ported her own arrival in port. She had
not been sighted by the lookout at Fire
island because of fog.
Money has, on more than one oc-
sion, been transmitted by wireless tele-

SONGS IN STORAGE
Composers Don't Like Tricks
Played by Publishers.

NEW YORK, May 1.-THE way of
the ambitious song writer is hard"
said composer of popular songs
'The first thing that he has to con-
tend with when he starts out is the
cold storage process.
If writer sells a song on royalties
he receives a contract. There is usu-
ally nothing in the contract requiring
the publisher to issue the song at any
particular time. So he is as likely
as not to lock it up in his safe and
let it stay there. Then 1t Is said to
be in cold. storage.
why does he do that? The song
may strike the publisher as q good
one, or he may want to keep the writ
er from disposing Of 1t to some of his
rivals. After the song writer has made
a reputation the publisher takes the
song out and publishes it with in
creased profit.
Even the successful song writer is
not altogether exempt from cold stor-
age. He may have a song that the
publisher thinks should repose in the
safe for several reasons, one being that
1t may not be the proper time to place
1t on the market. Then he may desire
to wait until he can place 1t in a pro-
duction or give it to some prominent
singer.
"A certain well known writer Is test
ing the legality of this cold storage
process, and the matter is now before
the courts"

artists to pose for Kupfer poses for his
wife and her corsets. Mrs. Sophia Mey-

also makes corsets and when there is an
overflow of orders she sends them to Mrs
Kupfer. Last week a wealthy buxom lady
OF Hoboken sent in an order for forty
elght-inch stays. Mrs. Meyers was busy
for her thirty-six-inch customers and
turned the job over to Mrs. Kupfer. In
due time the four-foot girdle was COM
pleted. Ernest being the lay figure while
the RULES and riffs were being stitched
on. Then he became messenger boy and
delivered the package. Mrs. Meyers hand
ed him the usual S.
This is a corset and a half. It is
worth 81 So" said Kupfer.
They wrangled over the price, Mrs.
Meyers maintaining that corset Is a
corset, whether it Is for a fat lady or a
Slim lady. Kupfer, to stop the argument,
grabbed the corset and ran Mrs Meyers
gave chase, but Kupfer got away Then
mrs. Meyers went to the West Thirtieth
street police station and had a general
alarm sent out for Kupfer and the four
foot corset
Policeman Callahan found him at his
home, No. $50 West Fifteenth street
last night with his wife clinging to him.
Callahan took kupfer and the four-foot
corset off to the police station. Mrs.
Meyers was waiting. But her wrath
melted before the tears Of Mrs. Kupfer.
Stay" cried Mrs. Kupfer, do not let
this corset be the cause of my Ernest
getting pinched. | will take the SIS for
1t, but goodness knows the woman ought
to be willing to pay more
Whereupon Mrs. Meyers rendered the
S. withdrew the charge and the tale of
the four-foot corset ended happily.
