PHOTOS SENT BY WIRELESS,

Pascal Berjonneau, an inventor, re-
Gently exhibited before the postmaster
general at Paris new telephotography
apparatus which can be adapted to the
wireless system or to the ordinary tele-
graph wire system. He transmitted the
picture of the postmaster without the aid
of wires from one end of the hall to the
other. The inventor claims that distance
does not interfere with the effectiveness
of his method. Photographs, he says,
can be sent by it between New York and
Paris.

On New Years day fire started in the
pressroom of the Burlington Clipper at
Essex Junction; by hard work the office
was saved from total destruction, but
not before several hundred dollars of
of damage was done. However, due to
the promptness of the fire department
the fire was soon out. Congratulations
to Editor Thayer. He has risen like the
phoenix from the ashes, and the Clipper
was issued just as promptly as usual.

ASK ORIENTALIST TO EXPLAIN.

The American Society of Biblical Lit
erature and Exegesis, at its recent meet
ing in Philadelphia, passed a resolution
calling upon Prof. Hermann V. Hilprecht,
a professor at the University of Pennsyl-
vania to make public reply to the
charges laid against him of taking in
connection with some ancient tablets
which he claimed to have dug up at
Nippur. 1t is charged that these tablets,
which are now in the museum of the
University of Pennsylvania, instead of
having been dug up by the professor
had been bought by him in various cities
of the Orient and that most of them had
never been near Nippur. 1t is also de.
clared that the tablets were in the hands
of dealers some years prior to DIR. Hill
prechts alleged discoveries.
FLExNER TRANSFERS VITAL ORGANS.
A paper read before the American Asso-

in the University of Chicago reveals the
fact that DIR. Simon Flexner of New
York City has succeeded in transplant
ing arteries from one animal to another
successfully. The experiments have
thus far been confined exclusively to the
lower animals, but the favorable results
in this field are believed to point the way
to successful application of the practice
to human beings.

doubleday is the largest tooth in the
west. 1t weighs about six pounds
and is as large as mans head. Out
of what kind of an animal it came or
now old it is are questions that may
never be solved. but the fact that the
animal that once masticated food
with the tooth was a giant beast is
a certainty.
The tooth was found in the bottom
of deep canyon in Montana by Rollo
Cummins, son of Mrs. =. E. Cummins
Young Cummins is hunting this win
ter in Montana. He sent the tooth
to his mother from Eklaka.
Scores of curious persons have
examined the tooth. Many have been
the strange remarks about it. One
man said that to him it looked like a
petrif1ed owl, another declares that it
Is a whales tooth. still another said
he believed it was a petrified tongue
out of some animal, and one man
thought it the toe of prehistoric
beast.
The tooth is in a semi-petriffed
state. 1t has been hardened by time
as well as bleached. The outer coat
ing of the tooth is cracked in many
places, showing its extreme old age.
Mr.. Langdon thinks that from the
size Of the tooth the beast that once
used 1t to assist in masticating it's food
evidently was five times as large as the
largest elephant in existence The
tooth is eight inches long. seven inches
wide and three inches thick. It is
very irregular in shape and has near
~ a score of roots. 1t has been used

Suppose congress should do this at this

congress would not, because it could
not. perhaps, permit the state banks
