WIRELESS TELEPHONING.

Paris newspapers report that nj.
Maiche, well-known inventor, has
made sensational discovery in the
field of wireless telephony. His new
apparatus consists of two posts which
are placed in his premises. Each post
consists of telephone, battery. a
special form of induction coil and
frame which is formed of a series of
insulated wires. One post is placed
in the garden and second one in a
room in the building some distance
of, about 100 feet, and several walls,
doors, and windows come between the
posts. Conversation can be carried on
easily, aud the sound is clear.
The inventor began five years ago
to work on the problem. At the
chateau of Marchais, belonging to the
prince of Monaco, he made expert
ments. using the earth as a conduc-
tor, and these were successful at dis
lance of two miles. One year after
ward he was able to communicate be-
tween Toulon and Ajaccfo in Corsica,
over the sea at 1870 miles distant, using
the sea as conductor for the waves.
These experiments were kept secret,
however.
AS the new apparatus works without
the use of ground, the results are
considered to be more important. M.
Maiche expects to increase the dis
lance indefinitely by giving more pow
err to the apparatus, which is only in
its first stages. Submarine boats could
use the system to good advantage.

Indeed, 1t sometimes happens that the
head of Russian noble family is
warned that his daughter is in danger
and under police supervision, and
this is the first intimation he gets of
her political propensities. She is
quickly sent abroad or shut up in
far distant country seat to mediate
on her folly, but the mischief has been
done.
Russian women have long been
known as energetic, capable workers:
honest, straightforward, sensible and
brave. How brave few but their men
kind know, though the fact will proba-
bly, be patent to all the civilized world
shortly. They have fought steadily
for educational advantages, which the
government has as steadily denied
them. At last the number of young
women who left Russia to study
abroad was considered bad fou the
country and they were ordered to re-
turn under pain of exile.
Courses of lectures for the higher
education of women were opened at
st. Petersburg by order of the emper-
or. They were given by the most
learned men of the university, who
showed the greatest sympathy and
willingly gave their best for trifling
salary. 1t is pathetic to read of the
heroic struggles which are being made
by the Russian women to obtain a

The active part which the ladies of
the Russian aristocracy have taken
lately in helping the government to
the best Of their power by giving their
services as telegraph and telephone
workers, letter sorters, ETC.. coupled
with the significant fact that in the
program recently published by the
revolutionaries they demand equal
suffrage for men and women, causes
us to inquire what is the position of
the Russian women of today and to
wonder what part they will take in
the tremendous upheavals which
threaten their country. says the Lon
don Queen. That the part will be
very great one there is no doubt.
When we realize how immense is
the influence women WELD in time Oh

tude of Russian women is of the
greatest importance. 1t is little real

Origin Of leo Cream.

Though the ancient Greeks and Ro-
mans used ice for table purposes to

about 1860. and known at first as

MYSTERY or 4 MUMMY.
Human Body Preserved in Plaster
Found in yirginia.

The small and usually quiet town OF
Alexandria, Va, issin turmoil of ex-
element, says the Rochester Post-Ex-
press. Recently mummy was un-
earthed in secret chamber in the
walls Of the ancient Carlyle house.
one OF the Oldest and most famous of
the historical structures in Virginia.
A day or two after the body was found
the discOverer announced that it was
fake. but it has since been examined
by DR.. Ales Hdrlicka, anthropologist
of the Smithsonian Institute, who is
regarded as the most expert anatomist
in the country. and he declared that
instead of being a fake it really is a
human cadaver. which has been in
cased in a coating of plaster.
Now that DR.. Hrdlicka has pro-
nounced the mummy genuine, specu-
lation is rife as to whose body It Is.
1t Is believed by many persons in AL
exandria and Washington that it is
either the body of John Carlyle, who
built the house, or that of Gen. Brad
dock, who was killed in his inglorious
battle against the Indians. John Car
lyle built the house in 1892, on the
site of fort which was erected by
Capt. John Smith century earlier.
DIR. Hrdlicka holds to the theory that
the body is that of Gen. Braddock,
and there is, we believe. no existing
record Of the burial OF the Inflated
English soldier. The anthropologist
compared the remains with a por-
trait and personal description of
Braddock and discovered that the
measurements and general contour
conceded remarkably. He is positive
that the body Is not that of an Indian
or negro.
The present owner Of the old house.
Mr.. Simpson, discovered the mum
my. When the news of the find was
bruited about 1t created such: excite
ment that In order to preserve the old
house from mob of curiousity seek
ers he announced that the discovery
was fake. The discovery of the body
revealed the fact that the old house
is built over a series OF subterranean
vaults, which are entered through Sc
cret points in the walls. These vaults
VIII be examined and may yield i'm
portant historical information. The
original owner of the house, John Car
lyle, was a magistrate under Lord
Fairfax, and two Of the rooms were
used as a dungeon and place of exc
cution. According to tradition many
Indians were put to death in the exc
cutlOn chamber and an investigation
OF it's secret vault may disclose some
grewsome records.

Developing Iron Deposits.

A report comes from Carbon county,
Wyo., that a force of men under w. w.
Petty is at work on the north side OF
Elk mountain opening up a large dyke
of iron ore, and that z. L.. LomaX, gen
eral passenger agent of the Union Pa
cifc, n other Union Pacific officials
are interested in the proposition, says
the Salt Lake Tribune.
The Union Pacific already owns very
extensive iron deposits in Carbon coun-
ty. part of which have been leased
to other parties. The company is now
apparently exploring that region to de
velop the extent of the iron deposits
and, without question, for the purpose
of developing these.
The iron dyke located on Elk noun
tain is 24O feet in width, forming a
veritable mountain of iron and one OF
the largest in the country. 1t not only
runs very high in iron, but carries cop
per and some gold as well. A portion
of the dyke runs 20 per cent pure cop
per and the entire mountain will run
3 per cent copper.

Bio Enaine Making Good.

The big simple Baldwin engine, No.
212, which has been given some severe
tests on the Wyoming division, all the
way from Cheyenne to Green River,
and which is expected from the west
today or tomorrow, is making good,
according to the records of the tests
kept by Travelling Engineers w. j.
Stewart of Cheyenne and V. e. Nc
Carthy of Rawlins. Mr.. Mccarthy
said this morning, in speaking OF he
matter in Trainmaster Let's office,
that the engine had met every test.
1t is hauling from 800 to 400 more tons
than the engines of the 1900, 1000 and
1900 class. and consuming not to eX-
coed two and one-half or three tons of
coal more than the others. There is
less slipping on the rails, doing better
work on Slippery rails than the en-
gines of the other classes do on dry
rails, which, to a locomotive man, con-
veys much more meaning than to a
layman. The engine has made trips
from Cheyenne to Laramie and back,
from Laramie to Rawlins and back
and from Rawlins TO Green River and
return, and so far has done its work
well.

fat road started toward that part Of the
state the report has been circulated
with more frequency. Mr.. Park says
that the company has no intention OF
building into Routt county at the pres
ent time. He says that the only OBJ
ject it would have in building into the
northwestern part of Colorado would
be to protect the business it now re-
ceives from there. - there is scarce
ly any agricultural lands in the dis
trict through which the Union Pacific
would have to pass it would hardly pay
it to build.

FIRE DOES DAMAGE
AT THE KIDD STORE.

Fire in the stable at the rea of Mrs.
Kidd's music store at $40 Second street
at lao this afternoon did 5000 or $500
damage to the Kidd premises and
about $25 in the Jacob Berner lumber
yard, the first lot north of the Kidd
store. Policeman Knadler was through
the alley back of the stable a few min
utes before the alarm was sounded,
and saw no sign of fire. He saw that
the stable door was open and believes
the fire may have been started by boys
playing therein. Mrs. Kidd's horse and
buggy were in the stable, the horse be
ing led out before it had been injured
in any way. The buggy was almost
totally destroyed. Mrs. Kidd and some
friends left this morning for a fishing
trip and the amount of insurance, if
any, could not be obtained. Mr.. Ber-
ner had no insurance. The home of
George Chapman, at SIP Second, was
not badly damaged.

A bold robber succeeded in relieving
the Office of the Sitter steam laundry
of a canvass bag containing between
S25 and $50 in silver this morning, in
broad daylight, and getting beyond the
reach of the officers. The robbery was
a peculiar one in that it was dead easy
and the robber succeeded in getting
away before suspicion fell on him, al
though he was seen as he left the place
and his pal was captured at the door
of the Office.
Peterson Calls for Package.
The laundry is located on Garfield
street, between First and Second, the
office opening on to Garfield street.
The two men, the n captured giving
his name as Peterson and the name of
the other being unknown, called at the
Office of the laundry this morning,
shortly after the door was opened. A
couple of weeks ago Peterson, who
claims to have been working for The
railroad company on the grade about
Lookout, deposited a bundle of linen
at the laundry to be washed, paying
the charges at the time. Today he call
ed for the package, and Colonel Sitter,
in the office at the time, took him into
the pacakge room, opening from the
Office to get the bundle.

The other man was standing in the
door of the office, and the moment the
proprietor was out of the room he pick
ed up the bag of silver, which had been
taken from the safe and laid on the
desk but a few minutes before, and
disappeared, going toward Second
street, where he turned the corner and
went southwark. The other man back
ed out of the Office, but was captured
and held for the police, Marshal Sig

professed to have met the stranger this
morning and declared he knew nothing
of the robbery.

Colonel Sitter left the laundry by an
other door and saw the first Of the two
men just as he turned the corner OF
the Collins block and disappear south

the office door, but was captured be
fore he had gone many feet, the colonel
missing the bag of silver the moment
he cast his eyes on the desk.
Cheyenne Police Notified.
A fairly good description of the miss
ing man was furnished to the police
and wired to Cheyenne. 1t is not
known in which direction the thief
went after turning the corner, but it
is believed he went either toward Fort
Sanders, where the Eleventh infantry
was encamped, or struck out eastward,
trying to hide in the hills east of the
city. 1t is possible by this time he has
boarded a freight train and disappear
