Most Nearly Perfect Vacuum.

1t was Prof. Dewar's achievement
In liquefying hydrogen that led to the
discovery OF an easy method OF OBJ
tanning an almost perfect vacuum
and that in a single minute.
When a glass tube filled with air
and closed at one end has its open
end dipped into cup OF liquid by
drogen, the intense cold condenses
the air into kind of snow, that set.
ties to the bottom. If, then, the upper
part OF the tube, from which the sol
idified air has fallen, is removed by
heating and cooling 1t OF 1t becomes

that It is difficult to force an electric

RUSSIAN VERSUS JEW.

One of the ugly and invariable phases
of Russian news is the constant AMI
horrible batting OF the Jews there. Rus
sia claims to be civilized; but she is
wofully in arrears on that score. if one
half the tales of this sort that come
from there. are true. But what creates
the marvel for most men. is, that the
country should contain single man or
woman Of the race, after all these awful
years. Why do they stay tneres Why
do they not leave and come to America
Other peoples have taken this route from
the ills and losses thrust upon them in
the land of their nativity. We have
much to contend with, but nothing Of
this kind; as yet. tieast The American
Hebrew must be very different man,
and of infinitely better stock and quail
ity, than his Russian brother, ii the
latter puts up with this dreadful curse
of domination, simply for the sake of
money-lust and the holding Of some CON-
mercial leverage in that empire of un-
happiness.

TO INSTALL PRONE WIRELESS
Naval Officer Will Equip the Virginia

WASHINGTON, Oct. l4.--Lieutenant-
Commander Cleland Davis Of the navy

telephone instruments on the battle
ships Virginia and Connecticut, II Il
the intention Of the Navy Department to
put wireless telephones on all the yes.
sells of the Atlaptic fleet.
The instrument to be tested on the
Virginia and Connecticut Is the invention
of a Danish engineer. 1t was the first
put on the market. A feature OF the
wireless telephone Is that 1t works with
a much lower voltage than the wireless
telegraph. 1t is claimed for The instru.
ments to be tested that the telephone
can be worked with Morse key like
the regular wireless telegraph instru.
ment.
The wireless telephone has been oper.
ated successfully for a distance OF eight
miles. Communication for five miles is
comparatively easy. 1t can be utilized
to great advantage by the commanding
officer of feet to call up the captains
of the various ships and converse with
them without leaving his cabin.

A WORD IN SEASON.

Astoria has never possessed so as
sured future as is here just now.
within reason, she has everything tc
look forward to, that will make her an
important commercial city and seaport
if the agencies contributing thereto are
conserved and shrewdly adjusted, rather
than dissipated in boom -buncombe
policies that shall rob her of the sta
bility and wisdom needed to perpetuate
the sources Of her up-lift.
Extravagant land values, and fictitious
prices of all sorts, should be carefully
excluded from her markets; and all she
has to offer must be held at figures that
attract, rather than repel, the man and
money from abroad. All advances in
realty should be closely governed by the
scope of development and the ratio OF
investment. The increase in values OF
lands, houses. businesses. stocks and
practical opportunities Of every kind, is
expected and win be looked for both by
the local owner and the stranger. AMI 1t
is up to us to make this increase so ra-
tional, proportionate and gradual, as to
convince the seeker after profitable
things, that we have not absorbed all the
profit in them before we shall tender
them to him.
It was to the end that our people
might get together on this sane PROPOSE
tion, that we advocated the calling Of a
mass meeting of Astorians to discuss
means and measures, the other day; and
we still adhere to the utility of such a
gathering. It is an easy matter to lose
ones head and wit under what are
known as "boom" tactics, and their re-
suits, in a monetary way, are fractional
and discouraging, compared with the ac-
cess innuring from a common sense
policy of keeping equable pace with the
real expansion as it occurs, day by day.
and month. 1t is well, also, to avoid
the necessity of having to argue down
the doubts that are sure to be thrust
upon us if we stand pat what friend
at our elbow calls) sentimental values;
the margin of value is fixed, the world
over, by the earning capacity of land and
improvements, and no other standard
will operate, in Astoria, nor anywhere
else.
The responsibility of making the most
of our splendid field lies with US; not
with the people who shall come in here
searching for actual benefits; we will
make or mar the best prospect time and
circumstance has ever awarded us just as
we shall gauge our prices and quote
them. And it must be remembered, also,
that we are not right in the midst of the
buying world, but must draw our new
people to us from out the beaten paths
Of speculation by virtue Of the essential
excellence Of our own program and the
wholesomeness of our offerings; this
will be a brand-new market for the in.
vesting contingent. and it is up to US to
make them realize that what we are
marketing is genuine as to value and the
increment insperable from that value.
More cities than one have been ruined
by "boom" absurdities and we do not
have to sacrifice anything to that doc,
trine.
