Longest English Word.

Which is the longest word in the
English language? The controversy
on this subject may break out afresh
over a note of DIR. Murray's In THE
Oxford English Dictionary" He
points out that "incifeumscriptable BILE
ness" and 'honorifica bilitudinity" both
contain twenty-five letters, says the
London News. But these are beaten
by a word coined, or at least first
used, by DIR. Benson. the late arch
bishop of CANTERBURY, "Antidisestab-
lishmentarians," which contains a.
many letters as the alphabet, viz.
twenty six. We think. however. We
can got one better than THE. For each
Of the above words ,an authority u
given. But II "honorifcabi iitudIni.
ty" be allowable, why not honorifl.
cabilitudinarians" This has twenty
seven letters and twelve syIiables, and
we have seen the word used some
where. After all, II 1t be allowable
to build up compound words on the
German system. our language has In.
dnlts possibilities In syllable spInnine.

At lie asst . Century Old.

Wireless telegraphy. according to
John Gordon Gray, who read a paper
on the subject before a meeting Of the
Engineers Club recently. is not new

known to the world of science 100
years ago.
ut Is now over 100 years." said Mr.
Gray, "since Saliva, a Spanish physic-
ist and the inventor OF the electro
chemical telegraph, In a paper before
the Academy OF Science Of Barcelona.

triclty from one point charged positive

"Steinheil Of Munich tried the expert
ment Of utilizing two rails of a railway
as telegraphic conductors, but was un-
able to obtain an insula ton of the rails
sufficiently good for the current to
reach from one station to another. His
experiments resulted In the introduc.
ton by him Of the earth current. In
1912 Prof. Morse arranged for a dem
onstration Of his telegraph by connect
ing Governors Island with Castle Gar
den. He arranged his wires along the
banks 30 as to cause the water itself
to conduct the current across. This he
accomplished In December of 1912,
across the canal at Washington. In
1854. James Il. Lindsey of Scotland
patented n method Of transmitting tele-
graphic messages by means of elec.
tricity or magnetism through and
across water without wires."--Phila-

LuIie's Fright.


Lulie sat under the big, square table

did not need any paper and pencil,
for she had a nice piece Of white
chalk and the floor WAS painted dark
brown.
A long time, perhaps good half
hour, the tiny artist worked away,
sketching houses, cats. boats and
trees. and girls with little sunshades
held up straight over their heads. At
last she rubbed them out with Dolly

a big circle. In 1t she made 4 pair Of
great, staring eyes, short. fat nose
and a wide mouth, with three teeth

bills before Congress for the purpose
Of preventing the use of adulterants In

BETTER WATER FOR NEWARK
Proposed Supply From a Well Pro-
nouneed Chemically Pure.
Special to The Evening journal.

Newark, March 1.-THE water ques-
tiop was the principal subject dis
cussed at the regular meeting Of Town
Council last night. Council is seeking
10 secure water from a driven well
near the p, b. & w. railroad station
one mile south of town. DR.. T. r.
Wolf, the State chemist, who made an
analysis of water taken from the new
well, stated that it was almost chem
ically pure and Of excellent quality.
The cost of laying pipes TO the town
and other expenses would be about
$4,000. Some citizens oppose the work
but the members Of Council believe
that all opposition will be overcome
when the people fully understand that
an inexhaustible supply of fine water
can be secured.
A committee of non-property holders
were preset who asked that certain
concessions be granted in the way Of
IA reduction in poll tax. Council
seemed favorable to the movement.
The part which Company L. n. G. D..
of Newark, took in the inaugural GER
.emonies at Washington last Saturday
has been highly spoken OF. The mem
bers of the company feel much pleased
at the showing made. Fifty men were
in line.

St. Thomas P. T. Church was held

CEN. WILSON ON
VICTORY OF JAPS
Explains How Capture of
Mukden May Have Been
Accomplished
KOREA IN NEED OF SYMPATHY

It is the opinion of General JamRs H.
Wilson, of this city, that the news re-
ceived Of the fall Of Mukden is not au-
thentio enough as yet TO form a correct
idea as to just how the victory was ac-
complished from a military standpoint or
how complete it is. Although he has
never been through Manchuria, the Cen
eral has studied thoroughly the situation
there and the location of the two armies
by maps.
General Wilson was seen at his home,
No. 1905 Rodney street this morning by
a reporter for The Evening Journal.
When asked for an interview as to how
the Japs captured Mukden, he replied that
it would be impossible to state at this
time.
"All the dispatches" he said, ''received
so far come from either British or Japan
sources and they are undoubtedly preiu-
diced"
He stated that while he had no way
of knowing the manoeuvers Of the Jams
In capturing Mukden, he would Judge
from the situation that what is known
in the army as the turning movement
was possibly successfully brought into
effect. The movement in this instance he
explained, means that the Japs probably
first advanced from the right to draw
attention to that point and then advanced
from the left, pushing the line around
to the rear Of Russia's army and cut of
the railroad connections.
In speaking Of the turning movement
General Wilson said: mo well directed
turning movement OF this kind has eve,
failed in modern war If properly pressed. u
General Wilson, in speaking of the wal
said: "The interests involved are com.
mercial and political and pertain TO all
mankind. The greater Japan's victor,
the greater the menace to the general
peace of the world"
He referred to Korea as being absolute.

NEW BUILDING AND LOAN

President

At a recent meeting held at the law
offices of John w. Brady and gohn f.
Malloy new building and loan asso-
citation to be ofhcered and controlled
exclusively by wilmingtonians was or
ganized.
The new association is TO be known
as the Endowment Building and Loan
Association of Wilmington, Delaware,
IDS capitalized at S500,0OO, divided into
$500 shares Of the par value of $500
each.
The officers Of the association are as
follows:
President. James Megary; Vice-Presi-
dent, Herbert II. Ward; Secretary p.
A. Horty, Real Estate officer Whining
ton Trust Co: Treasurer, Matthew D..
Murphy, Treasurer of the Wilmington

I. Ford. S. II. Durstein, James Kane,
Charles F. BiclSta, T. d. Doherty,
Thomas NJ. Monag
The usual plans for conducting SINH
lar organizations was discussed at some
length and the addition Of a novel
foature Of insurance provision to pre-
vent loss to the estates of deceased
members was decided upon.
According to this new method, which
has been adopted and found to be very
successful in many local building and
loan associations of Philadelphia and
other cities, the shares OF each stock
holder are protected by policy OF life
insurance so that in the event of the
death OF the holder the shares Of stock
win be Immediately matured. BY this
precaution the association will be re-
lieved OF. the necessity Of foreclosing
a mortgage in the event Of the death
OF a borrowing member, thereby leaving
the heirs in possession of a home free
and clear of all incumbrances without
further payment TO the building and
loan association.

Regular crstna Green.

According to statSs5snts of Officer Cor
dy and Caller Charles Parsons, at the p,
B. & w. station, wilmington is regular
Gretna Green Tor clipping couples and
scarcely a day passes but that one or
more marriage seekers do not put in
their appearance.
Why" said Officer Gordy, they come
from all directions and are all sizes,
shapes and nationalities. Some are dresJ
ed stylishly while others wear clothing
indicating the middle walk of life. And
it's funny. too, the very first thing they
ask is, does it cost anything to get a
marriage license in Wilmington. Upon
being Informed that fee is charged they
usually say that they were under the
impression that 1t didn't cost anything
here. There's no question but that run
away couples consider Wilmington a dead
easy open and shut proposition so far as
the marriage business is concerned"
Caller Parsons corroborated the officers
