Wireless in War.


Wireless telegraphy played most
important part in the great naval en-
gagament between the Russian and
Japanese ships in the late war. A
Japanese writer says that at the time
of the battle of the Sea of japan the
weather was foggy and hazy to such
an extent that 1t was impossible to
see for distance greater than five
miles. A Japanese scout cruiser
while searching for the Russian fleet
suddenly found herself, when the fog
had lifted unexpectedly for a moment.
practically in the midst of the numer-
GUS vessels of the enemy A wireless
message was at once transmitted Civ
ing notice of the discovery and this
message was simultaneously re-
ceived by all the vessels of the Japan
'ese squadrons, Notwithstanding that
these were some $50 miles distant.
Admiral Togo Immediately dis
patched a squadron of scouts, which
kept in touch with the enemy and in
formed him at five-minute intervals
of the course, speed, position and loca-
ton of the Russians with such accur-
acy that Admiral Togo was able IT,
forecast with absolute precision the
actions of the enemy.
1t was through wireless communica-
ton alone that it was possible for the
Japanese commander to maneuver and
to place his fleet as to enable him to
strike the enemy most advantageously.
All of the Russian ships were equipped
with the latest and most efficient wire
less outfits, but they failed to interfere
with the messages.

and the result was in crossing the

There Is more new and illuminative
baseball slang omitted in one short
five minute scene in THE Umpire"
than the average fan" is able to ac-
cumulate in lifetime. The scene
occurs near the beginning of the play
and is dominated by the Umpire who
relates in most graphic argot the
incidents of the game wherein he gave
a rank decision and was fallen upon
and cast out by the indignant crowd.
Under the rough surface of the story
there is pretty sentiment, however.

DAMAGE TO COTTONWOODS.
Plant Louise Stings the Leaves of the

Bismarck Tribune: Considerable
damage has been done to trees here

fessor writes as follows:

injury is caused by the singing of the
leaves by plant louse-the cotton

young and lays therein some eggs.

is no treatment which will kill them
as they are mostly internal and thus

If, however, there are not too many
trees and one wishes to save them
from injury, a small pruning scissors
or clippers may be used to cut off the
gals as early in the season as pos

No snake in the cage enjoyed impris-
