SCIENTIFIC NOTES.

A splendid illustration of the in
creased value Of manufactured iron
and the raw material is found in a
Berlin factory, where they make cast
iron ornaments. The fneness and del
icacy Of these separate ornaments is SO
great that 10000 Of them go to the
pound and are worth by the ton $3.50
006, while the raw material Of which
they are made costs about $3.50.
Early in the 18th century bud Dud-
ley accomplished the desirable result
Of smelling iron with coal, but the Sc
cret died with him and was not again
established for 100 years.
In the time Of Edward III iron was
50 rare that the pots, splits and frying
pans were ciassed among his majesty
jewels.
1t is said it will require 100000
freight cars, or q train 1926 miles
long, to haul the grain crop to market
this year.
DR.. Isadore Dyer. OF New Orleans,
who has made lifelong study of lep-
rosy, has announced that the second
leper whom he has completely cured
has been discharged from the Lepers'
Home. The patient discharged last was
a woman, whose name is withheld. The
other patient was a boy, I'm whom the
disease had just developed. Other pa
tents undergoing DR.. Dyer's treatment
are said to be improving.
Many observations have convinced
Mabel s. Nelson, a British psychologist,
that men hear better than women. and
that both men and women hear farther

BIG WIRELESS PLANT.
A Station to Cover Nearly All Of Europe.

Station to Cover Nearly All Of Europe.
Consul Diederich. of Bremen. writes:
,''The general Post Office Department
Of the German Imperial Government is
now building wireless telegraph sta
ton Of monstrous height at Norddeich,
which probably will be for the time
being the most efficient in the world.
1t Is expected to cover q circuit of not
less than 932 miles. This station will
convey not only messages to and
from Germany. Switzerland, France,
Great Britain and Denmark, but also
the larger part of Italy, Sweden and
Norway, and even portions Of Spain,
the Balkan Peninsula and Russia; to
the southeast it will operate as far as
Saragossa: in the south it will almost
reach Naples and Cetinje,. in the east
get close to st. Petersburg, and in the
north it will talk to the people at
Drontheim and about half way up to
Narvfk. German vessels homeward
bound from America will be able to
communicate with the German station
at Norddeich when they are still on
the Atlantic far beyond Lands End, IL
degrees west of Greenwich. The install
lation at the station will be set up by
Berlin firm supplying machinery, ap-
paratus and accessories for wireless
telegraphy, according to the system
called 'teIefunken.'

1t has a pressure Of $50 pounds to the

 A Life of Romance.
 We haven't time to treat of Captain Hobsons many other fine traits: his simplicity and amiability; his never having knowingly wronged man. woman or child; his total lack of mal- ice even for those who have injured him: his confidence in men even after having been the victim of some of their meanest machinations: his love for his fellow man: particularly his great love for his own home and State, which prompted him to refuse sure nomination and election in New York rendered him by his personal friend. Nixon, Chief of Tammany. and many other offers When some of his friends, deeply grieved at the slight defeat he suffered at the last primary, were petulantly advising him to move else- where, he said with a sad smile: 70. these people are all right; they don't know me yet.

 In fine, those who know him well, all endorse the sentiment of a friend. who some months since wrote of him: His whole life seems like a splendid TO- nance. a noble epic: each year sepa- rate chapter: each day new page: each hour new verse;.
 It is scarcely necessary to say that Captain Hobson's greatest achievement is his recent winning of the noble young woman, who is his wife. Her welcome to Alabama has been all the warmer for the fact that she is largely Alabamian herself. being a niece or our great Governor Houston, cousin of General Joe Wheeler, and closely re- lated to one of the distinguished Jones families, and other prominent families of the State. She truly shares her hus- bands fortunes, accompanying him through all the discomforts of his lec- ture tours and political canvasses, de- claring bravely that wheresoever he goes there shall she also go.
