WIRELESS PHONE MIKES
BEANS AND BUSINESS

ceiver Is similar to the ear piece
of the telephone, and the message
is received by the buzzings which
the operator hears and which con,
vey the Morse code of dots and
dashes by long and short buzzes.
The wireless telephone starts the
waves when the voice affects an
arc, like the arc of an incandescent
light, where two carbon points
come close together and the cur
rent jumps the chasm. The waves
travel through the intervening
space the same as the waves in
wireless telegraphy. But they are
much more gentle and delicate. 1t
Is for this reason the wireless tele-
graph interferes seriously with the
wireless telephone.
If one starts wireless telegraph
message toward the man trying to
take a wireless phone message, the
phone business is all off, The sound
Of the voice is Immediately swamp
ed in buzzing racket.

than she does guns. Just at pres.
ent they have the guns beat to a

ers, though as to that there may
be a different story to tell when

Here are some of the varied
pipes of Pan" that are to be found
on this man-ofwar. Undoubtedly
there are many that l have not dis
covered, but | have made a start,
guided largely by my sense of hear
ing, and the directions in which it
had led me at different hours of
the day:
First, the ships band of 16
pieces. It's bully band and it
nands the boys the tunes they
want to hear-popular melodies,
Sousa marches. the old songs and
things like that; mighty little Of
the classic stuff.
Piano in the wardroom.
Piano in the junior officers
room
Piano for the men, on the gun
deck, nesting just behind the
breech of huge gun. All three
pianos have automatic player at
tachments.
Graphophone in the wardroom;
another in the warrant officers
room.
Among the senior officers--two
violins, guitar, flute, banjo, either.
More assorted musical instru-
ments, distributed among junior
warrant and petty officers and
crew.
Two band concerts are held each
day, morning and evening During
smoking houhs. or off-duty hours,
the crew are free to pity and sing,
and play and sing they certainly do.
There are some magnificent voices
among these sailor men, and often
will be heard almost from one end
of the ship to the other, as the
jackie stands by the mems piano.
singing for large and highly ap-
preciative crowd of shipmates.
All over the decks, in corners
sheltered from sun and wind, are
little impromptu gatherings Of
half dozen with varied instru-
ments. From one officers room
comes the languid PUNK of a ban
10, from another the mournful
drone of fiddle.
Truly, music hath charms to con-
tent the sailor man with his lonely
life at sea, as well as to soothe the
savage beast.

up behind their ears. Length OF
jump counts but small part in the
prize winning. The grace shown by
the runner descending the chute
the erect poise in midair and the
clean landing play important parts
with the judges.
The take-off is the secret of good
flight. If there is the least culver
of the ankles, or if one ski flaps
against another. the runner goes
sprawling through the air and lands
on his ear, or turns cartwheels
down the slope.
Norweigians invented the ski
game and have had their annual
tournaments for centuries at Hol
menkollem.
They have been running in this
country ever since they came over
but only in the last few years has
there been an organized sport.

Special Corrsspondencs to The Press.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 22.-
The wireless telephone, with which
the battle feet is equipped, is work
ing as we'll as signal officers of the
navy and army expected. All
that is needed, they say, is "a lit
tie tuning" to eliminate superfluous
talk. The invention is new, and
many of the officers were unfa-
miliar with it.
The trouble with the wireless
telephone, say the officers in let
ters, has been the mixing up of
outside conversations with the one
supposed to have the call.
Without any wires, the wires
get crossed" At least that is the
effect. An officer on the Connect
cut tries to tell an officer on the
Kearsarge to port his helm but is
compelled to listen to two officers
talking between the Alabama and
Georgia about the poor quality of
beans served to the mess.
The wireless telephone is like the
wireless telegraph in it's ability to
pick up conversations floating about
in space. The instruments on the
battle fleet have range of 20 miles
and upwards, with good talking
power for five miles. The result is
that man with the receiver hears
ghost voices" on all sides. One
comes high pitched and faint; an
other sounds lower and louder;
while still another may be close at
hand. These voices and their
snatches of conversation distract
his conversation.
The inventors are at work to
tune out" the superfluous talk BY
this is meant that each conversa-
ton is caused by waves having a
certain rapidity, certain number
to the second, and, like a tuning
fork, which vibrates to a certain
note, the telephone receiver may
be fixed so it will respond to the
waves of the sending instrument,
and take no account of the outside
talk.

VALUABLE TRACTS

Falling Off in Revenue Is Shown

Especial to the Evening start

TRENTON, Nov. 23.-The annual re-
port of the State Riparian Commission
has just been submitted to Governor
Fort. 1t shows that the State has de-
rived from riparian grants during the
past year 1904, 007. This was derived as
follows: Grants, SOL, 705; leases, $76,S77;
licenses, $50. Conversions, SLABS; rem
tails on leases, $33,950.
The report states h a although
the revenue during the past year Is
not so great as that of the preceding
year, q large number of applications
are still being considered by the board.
which would considerably increase the
amount. In many cases the commission
has maintained n in some instances
increased the prices over those of last
year, and is restricting the extent of
the grants to the actual needs for In
tended commercial enterprises.
Under the act of 1906. II is pointed
out, the commission has continued the
recovery of vast tracts of land under
water formerly leased by the State n
on which rentals have been unpaid for
a considerable time. This has resulted
in restoring to the State some very val
liable assets, among them being the
two leases issued to Robert Annet In

whose body was found floating in the
East river, near Wards Island. yester-
day afternoon. The finding of Mrs.
Fleischman's body by Captain William
Burriss, Of the charities department
steamer Wanderer, ends one of the
deepest mysteries that has been known
in New York city in many years.
Mrs. Fleischman disappeared from her
home, Is West Eighty-sixth street, on
November s. She had been in good
spirits: and at 4:30 on that afternoon
her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Gustave
Fleischman, left her in her apartments
on the fifth floor of the Fleischman
home. Shortly after 8 o'clock, when
the elder Fleischman came home and
asked for his wife, he was informed
that she was asleep in her room. When
he went to see her the room was empty.
From the moment the younger Mrs.
Fleischman left her, no member of the
family ever saw her alive. Following
her disappearance one of the most
thorough searches ever instituted for a
missing person was begun. 1t is esti-
mated that the family spent over ten
thousand dollars in their efforts to
locate the missing woman.
1t was feared from the first by the
family that Mrs. Fleischman had COM
.mitted suicide because she had been an
invalid for five years past and was sub
ject to fits Of depression.
