keeping the wires electrically neutral
through frequent connections to the
earth or through frequent short cir
cults we should then expect that wires
which were kept their whole length in
constant contact with the earth would
in the long run show greater lasting
quality.
Telegraph Wire.
The process of making telegraph wire
Is noted, and it is explained that ''tele-
graph wire is generally acknowledged
to be more durable than fence wire"
and that "care is exercised in the man
ufacture of telegraph wire to keep the
manganese low, because this element
increases the electrical resistance of
the wire. The difficulty experienced
in rolling low manganese steel and the
slow rate Of speed at which the mill
must be run to draw the wire through
the zinc bath in the double process Of
galvanizing add materially to the cost
Of the product. The question then
arises whether or not high grade fence
wire is worthy the same care and con-
sideration that are given to wire which
brings a higher price in tho market
and Is used for other purposes.

the conquering of woman's dread

Copenhagen, Denmark, Jan. ST.
The new king, Frederick the Eighth,
now reigns over Denmark. His ac-
cession has been hailed with all APP
propriate enthusiasm and ceremony,
but the sorrow for the death of King
Christian the Ninth is the predomi-
nant sentiment. The overwhelming
grief of the immediate, members of
this remarkably united family is re-
flected in only slightly lesser de-
gree in every home in Copenhagen.

nation in the war with Spain. Mon.
day, along the line of march, many
wore the white carnation, in memory
of the late president.
Many Review Remains.
From 10 o'clock in the morning until
2 o'clock in the afternoon, while the
body lay in state in the historic little
church on Lafayette Square, many
thousands of his friends passed up the
aisle to the outer chancel and bowed
IL silence as they looked for the last
time on the warriors face.
BY 2 O'clock the nave of the church
was filed with gray-haired men, the
place of honor being given to Gen.
Wheeler's old cavalry" who came on
from the south by special invitation of
the family. Back of them sat other
Confederate veterans. In the body of
the church were many veterans of the
war with Spain.
Two minutes before the hour for the
service to begin, the entire congrega-
ton arose while the president, accom-
panied by Mrs. Roosevelt, entered the
church, and were a signed to the first
pew, which they shared with the fam
lily, who entered Immediately after
wards. The president and Mrs. Roose-
welt were both in mourning.
Chancel Banked With Flowers.
The service, was brief and impress
i've, and followed with few exceptions
the regular liturgy for the burial of
the dead. There were four priests in
the chancel, which was banked with
flowers from friends and associates
from far and wide. Two hymns were
sung, both favorites of Gen. Wheeler.
They were abide With Me, Fast Falls
the Eventide," and peace, Perfect
Peace" During the singing of the lat
ter hymn, the casket was borne by
eight sergeants to the caisson await
ing at the transept door.
The line of march was down 18th
street to Pennsylvania avenue, and
across the aqueduct bridge to Airing
ton. The pageant as it moved to the
strains Of the Dead March from Saul,
made an impressive picture, witnessed
by thousands, who stood with barred
heads.
Cannon Salute Dead.
When the funeral cortege reached
Fort Meyer, enroute to Arlington,
which lies just beyond, cannon loom
ed a major generals salute of thirteen
guns.
1t was few minutes past O'clock
when it reached the cemetery grounds.
The hillside on which the newly-made
grave was located was thronged with
people. The casket wrapped with the
stars and stripes, was lifted from the
caisspn by six sergeants OF cavalry
and borne to the grave, preceded by
Rev. DR.. Ernest Stires Of New York
and the honorary pallbearers. Rev.
DR.. Stires then performed the last sad
rites Of the episcopal church. A male
quartette sang Nearer My God to
Thee" and Shall We Gather at the
River" The cavalry fired three vol
leys over the grave, and then Fay VIII.
son, who sounded taps over the grave
Of President Mckinley, sounded taps
over the grave of Joseph Wheeler.
Then bugler from the regular army
sounded reveille.
After the services, hundreds passed
by the grave as last mark of their
affection.
