PREACHED OVER A TELEPHONE.
How O Sermon Was Carried Far by
Farmers Lines.

SOLOMON, Aug. la new use Tor
the farmers telephone was shown at q
recent funeral In this vicinity. Inc
service was, because Of the promin'
encs OF the family, one OF much inter-
est in this section and the preacher
was to be one OF the most talented OF
central Kansas. It was easily fore
seen that the church could hold but a
small portion Of those desiring to DO
present and that for invalids and
those at 0 distance attendance would
be practically impossible.
A woman on q farmers "party line
offered o solution. II am not able to
come In to the funeral" she explained
to central. "Can't you arrange 1t so
that l can hear the Sermon" she
asked Of the manager Of the lines.
The telephone company ran line
into the church and to the front seat
directly In front Of the pulpit where a
receiver was placed with large paper
funnel facing the preacher and only q
few feet from him. AZ he spoke be
talked almost directly into this funnel
and the wires carried the words to the
people along the farmers line'
throughout the vicinity. BY taking
down the receivers oil the farmers
could hear the sermon as we'll as those
In the church.
The congregation was large In The

the mainland, was crushed out at a
late hour Monday afternoon by loyal
troops after heavy fighting in which
nine cruisers, destroyers and torpedo
boats participated.
The sound Of firing on the islands
and from the fortress has ceased and
IN spite Of the fact that the occupa-
ton Of the entire water front by Cos
sacks prevents the obtaining Of posi-
tive news, 1t is announced at Hell
singfors that the mutinous artillery
men and sappers are still holding
their positions. The outlying islands
and the fortress appear to be in their
possession and they have practically
all the machine guns, quick-irers and
movable artillery of the fortress.
Gen. Laiming, the commandant Of
the fortress, is holding on to the main
fort on Commander Island with
force Of loyal infantry.
A general strike was declared IN
Helsingfors by the socialist workmeu

closed.

from Helsingfors Tuesday morning

graph wires have been cut
