soundless Whispers Soon to Reach the
Ends of the Earth.
All the far-1ung islands of the Pa
cifc will shortly be bound together
with the invisible chains of wireless
biography. From tall towers, already
standing on the top of a California
mountain, an electric current of I'M
precedented voltage will flash signals
which may be heard not only in Ha-
waii and far-off Samoa. but even on
the eastern shores of Japan and the
Philippines; while, at the same time,
ships moving like atoms across the
face of the waters, may keep in con-
slant touch with land.
Rising 300 feet into the air, the two
great towers have just been placed in
position on the very crest of Mount
Tamalpais, in Marin county, CAL, about
twelve miles on an air line north of
San francisco. These two gigantic
towers were constructed and hoisted
into position by the Pacific Wireless
Telegraph company, and are to be used
in connection with it's great Oriental
and Pacific coast system.
The bases of the towers are $500
feet above sea level, and are only a
few miles from the ocean. From the
long line Of %glittering breakers, the
apexes of the towers rise 1900 feet;
and they can be distinctly seen for a
radius Of fifteen miles in clear wealth
er. Perhaps there are no taller wire
less towers in the world, and certainly
none occupying so lofty a position
above sea level.
The current which will be used will
have the enormous potential of 5,000,.
600 volts and will throw a spark fiji.

WHAT WATER CAN DO.
Some Of the Not Generally Known
Healing Properties.

Some Of the Not Generally Known
Healing Properties.
There is no remedy of such general
application and non so easily obtained
as water, and yet nine persons out of
ten will pass it by in an emergency
to seek for something of less efficacy.
There are but few cases Of illness
where water should not occupy the
highest place as a remedial agent.
A strip of flannel or a napkin folded
le%ngthwise and wrung out of hot water
and applied around the neck Of a child
who has Group, will usually bring re.
lief in a few minutes. A towel folded
several times, then quickly wrung out
of hot water and Immediately applied
over the seat of the pain in toothache
or neuralgia will afford prompt relief.
This treatment in collie works like
magic. Cases on record having resist
ed other treatment for hours have
have yielded to this treatment in ten
minutes. Pieces of cotton batting
dipped in hot water, then applied to
all sores and new cuts, bruises or
sprains is the treatment now generally
adopted in hospitals. Hot water taken
freely a half hour before bedtime is
an excellent cathartic in the case of
constipation, while it has a most sooth-
ing effect on the stomach and bowels.
This treatment continued for a few
months, together with proper attention

Early Manufacture of Cotton.

The manufacture Of cotton in India
dates back to its earliest history
There are illusions to it connected
with India in the Bible. In old San.
scrit records mention is made of it's
being used in India nearly 5000 years
ago. At the time of Alexander's in.
vasion of India the dress Of the Hin
docs was described as consisting
largely of calicoes, pure white or hav.
ing figures. Among the imports into
Europe during the first century emu,
mer : by the elder Pliny, muslins
an calicoes from India are described
as of superior quality.

The Sea.

Capt. Dugge of the Hamburg-Ameri-

Capt. Dugge. did you ever witness

A Double Loss.

Of the penitence of a corporation
that had been found guilty Of corrupt
business methods Senator Tillman
said, with a smile.
"The sorrow of these people at
once disgusts and amuses me. AS I
consider it I think of a druggist at
Paint Rock.
"This druggist, being in a hurry to
get off to the ball game, made a mis-
take in compromising a prescription
that contained arsenic, and in conse-
quence of his error the patient died.
when the druggist heard Of the
mans death he struck his forehead
with his clenched fist and groaned:
"tWretch that I annie was my
best customer!'"

Case of Druqainu.

the vicissitudes and excitements in
the life of a young ambulance surgeon.

quaintance," he said, chad a curious
experience the other night.
HE was summoned to the police
station to examine an unconscious
prisoner. The prisoner, muddy and
dishevelled, lay on the floor of the cell
room. The physician bent over and
examined him, and then, rising, said
Ii a loud, stern voice:
"Ehis mans condition is not due to
drfnE. He has been drugged.'
"a policeman turned pale and said
in a timid, hesitating voice:
"I'm afraid yer right, sir. l drugged
him all the way from Carney's saloon,
a matter Of a hundred yards or more.'"

Lion Jumped on His Back.

Near Nairobi. Central Africa's new
a~ristocratic resort, a lion jumped out
from the brush upon the back of the
marquis of Waterford the other day,
and he would have been killed but
for two native bearers, who came to
his rescue and killed the lion, after
receiving a severe mauling them
selves. Lady Waterford saw the
fight, but did not fire for fear she
would do more harm than good.

Girl Saw Football Crowd, Thought 1t
Resurrection Day.
On the occasion of the last football
match between Yale and Harvard,
which took place at New Haven, the
crowd that came to witness the match,
estimated at owe 10000, so filled the
streets of the Elm City that there
were large groups Of people every
where.
The little daughter of a we'll known
clergyman was, on the day of the
match, taking a walk with her mother.
When she saw the great throng of peo-
pie all around her wherever she went,
she showed her early religious train
ing by exclaiming:

the water would not be good, and that the
supply would not be enduring We shall sec
whether this work at Jameco will disprove the
Judgment of the engineers, or Whether the sue
cess IT is now showing will prove to be only
temporary and the word Of the engineers Will
come true IN a short time.
There remains the suggestion that the con-
tractor has invented some new method of get
ting water which he is carefully keeping secret
In that case the city engineers and officials
would be entirely freed from the imputation
Of inferior efficiency. We could expect them
to be as energetic and enterprising and as re-
so,,rcefuI In making experiments with all known
devices and systems as any private contractor !;
out we could not demand Of them original in
yention. That the contractor has made such
sn invention is possible, though 1t is by no
means certain. If he has, he Is entitled to
handsome profit from 1t, and the city could we'll
sfford to give him that profit by payment Of
royalties 10 him for increases of water supply
elsewhere such as he has effected at Jameco.
For what is quite obvious, and what Is indeed
to our mind perhaps the most significant
feature Of the case, is that If O general In
crease proportionats to this could be effected
throughout the present long Island watershed,
the existing ard proximately future wants Of
Brooklyn would bs abundantlv met; and If
tie whole Of Long Island could be similarly
worked, most important factor would be in

THE EIGHTH REGIMENT.

By his action in the case Of the Sth Regiment
Governor Higgins has earned the thanks OF all
friends Of the National Guard and has stamped
with the approval of the commander in chief
the policy Of Generals Roe and Smith with re-
spect to regimental quarrels and controversies.
The Sth Regiment Is one of the oldest in the
state service, and its record is good In many
particulars. 1t sprang from an organization
which was founded in 1856 and it became regi-
ment in 1S47. In the days when its roster bore
the names of Lieutenant Theodore Roosevelt
and Lieutenant George B. Mcclellan it was
looked upon as one of the good regiments Of the
city. But a change came with the advent Of
incompetent officers, and the command deterio-
rated in numbers and in efficiency, went from
bad to worse and in 1898 was reduced to a
battalion of four companies Three years later
it regained its regimental standing. but the
causes which brought disgrace upon the regi-
ment In 1893 made themselves manifest again
about a year ago, and despite all efforts at
headquarters disputes between officers con-
tnued, undermining discipline, checking enlist
ment and making the organization the laughing
stock Of the other guardsmen. When General
Smith demanded the designations Of the quar-
relng field officers The Tribune said that still
more drastic measures were necessary, and the
suggestion that the regiment be reduced to q
battalion, with a view to building it up anew
petent and Industrious has been followed. In
justice to the enlisted men Of the Sth Regiment,
we reiterate that they are blameless and in no
way responsible for the deplorable condition Of
the regiment Many of them will re-enlist and
may become valuable aids to Major Elmore B..
Austin In his efforts to reclaim the command.
The fault for occurrences of this kind lies,
TO q great extent, in system by the operation
of which men devoid Of qualities essential t0
leadership may be placed In positions Of COM
mand There is much good material left In the
Sth Battalion-full as much as there was in
the Goth Battalion when General George Moore
Smith was put In charge of It In compare
lively short time the Irish organization regained
its regimental standing and men who know
him will predict that Major Austin will be as
successful with the Sth as his chief was with
the Goth, and that 1t will not be long before the
Official Register will bear again the roster Of
the Sth Regiment.

1902. It was found that there were 8,114 Of
them, with 50,e38 members. about four-ffths
being women The entire "rel!gious"-monastic
and priestIy-popuIation Of the kingdom was
72o77, in a total population Of 100000, or
about four to the thousand. That does not seem
a very large proportion. yet it must be borne In
mind that at the same time only 194.755 per-
sons were enumerated as engaged In commerce.
OF the members Of the orders $500 were en-
gagged IN teaching boys of the middle and upper
classes Considering that fully IS per cent of
the Spanish people are illiterate, there can be
no question Of the need Of teachers. But there
are those who argue with some point, that the
government would better let the Church depend
upon the voluntary contributions of the faith
full and devote the subsidy 1t has been paying
