AUTOMATIC TELEGRAPH

One Machine Does Work Of Three or
Four Telegraph Operators--Mes-
ages Are Transcribed 10 Tape and
Then Run Through Machine
Western Union Company Holds All
the Patents on the Invention.

The Western Union Telegraph
company is installing the Barclay
printers on its trunk lines, which may
aid the railroads in meeting the exi-
gencles OF the nine hour law by other
means than closing up depots be-
cause telegraph operators cannot be
secured in sufficient numbers, says
the Cheyenne Tribune. The Barclay
machine does the work Of three or
four operators.
The machine Is operated by tape
and sends out about 100 words a
minute, which are taken automatical-
ly on the receiving end OF the wire by
a machine similar to a typewriter,
which writes the messages on the
regular receiving blanks of the COM
pany. The tape Is prepared by means
of a machine which also works like
a typewriter, but which perforates the
tape similar TO the Wheatstone system
now in use in this country and Eu-
rope, the characters, however, being
different.
The Barclay printers differ from
the Wheatstone system In that at the
point OF destination instead OF the
message being received on a tape in
telegraph characters II is printed by
the receiving machine on the blanks
OF the company ready for delivery.
The machinery works automatically
and. as one machine transmits as fast
as three or four operators, It saves
many men at each end OF the wire.
When a message is taken into one
OF the larger offices II will be tram
scribed by a machine onto tape in
characters, then placed in the send
Ing machine, which sends II automat-
ically as described above.
The Barclay system is quite new and
has but recently been put in use be-
tween large commercial centers in the
east. II Is now being installed in Kan
sas City, Omaha and St. Paul, con-
Meeting them with each other, as well
as with Chicago. The system is con-
sidered a great success by the West
ern Union company, which owns and
CONTROLS the patents.

Trying to Contract Asparagus.

Seattle parties are endeavoring TO
get the land owners about Two Rivers
TO contract to plant at least 1000 acres
in asparagus, and agree IL that acre
age can be secured to establish an
asparagus cannery at Two Rivers.
The Two Rivers Investment company
will have the matter of contracting
in charge. and 1t is hoped that the
required acreage can be secured. 1t
will mean the establishment OF an in
dustry at Two Rivers, that will en-
ploy a large number OF people. This
soil is adapted to the growth of as
paragus, and is very profitable to the
gardener. From 1000 TO $4,000 gross
Per acre can be realized.-Two Rivers

One Of the most important ques-
tions affecting the grazing of sheep
| on the public domain ever presented
to the supreme court of this state was
decided this morning by the courts
ordering a new trial for Paul Richter,
Big Horn county sheepman who was
found guilty of a misdemeanor and
fined $50 in the district court of Big
Horn county, the offense being the
breaking of a quarantine in which
his sheep had been placed by state
sheep Inspector, says the Wyoming
Tribune, The inspector had previous
ly inspected the sheep and found
them to be without disease, but hav-
ing heard that the sheep had been
exposed, quarantined them on sus-
picion. This quarantine Richter's
herders broke Immediately and con-
tinued to Craze the sheep on the
open range.
In his trial the judge made certain
instructions were such as to make his
conviction certain for the fact that
he had broken quarantine, regardless
of the reasons which he might have
had for breaking quarantine.
The court holds that there is no
question of the right of the state in
spector to quarantine sheep which
are diseased or which have been ex-
posed to disease, this being the only
way in which the state can enforce
police regulations to prevent the
spread of disease among sheep.
But the court further says: I'VE
doubt il the legislature has the pow
er to lodge in one man or set of men
the authority to deprive a man of his
right to the control and custody Of
his sheep because the inspector or
any one else suspects they are infect
ed with scab. The inspector has the
right to inspect the sheep and If
competent to do so, it is an easy mat
ter for him to determine whether they
are infected or not"
The court held that the instruction
of the district court to the jury to
the effect that the insuector has the

A FEW MINUTES WITH ED
GAR ALLEN POE.
(Saul Sumner Gordon.)

The life of Edgar Allen Poe
is the saddest in the annals of
American men of letters. And
il there was plenty of time ac-
corded me, l might spend the
whole evening to good advantages
in giving the details Of this mans
life. But IS you know, my time
is limited to ten or fifteen min
utes, and eli Tat l can do is
merely to relate a few of the in
cidents which lave a direct bear
ing and influence on the poets
character and work.
When but a child two years
of age, Poe was left an orphan
thrown on the bounty of foster
parents. In this home he receiv-
ed everything except that which
touches the tender heart of
youth. Precocious as he was,
willful, proud and imperious, we
can see that he needed firm dis
ciplinine and love; instead he re-
ceived indulgence and kindness.
That warm love which goes
through our hearts and souls,
when bestowed upon us, and
which an artistic temperament
lives on just as plants do upon
water, was not given to Poe as
a child. How this reacted in his
poetry is apparent as you will
see and hear.
At school all held aloof from
the young boy, just as they die
in manhood. And he stood alonc
in proud loneliness. Are we ther
surprised to read that when Poe
at the age of IA, visited the
home of his chum, whose mother
received him with open arms anC
warm welcome, full of demon
stration and love, he was 81
wrought up and effected that hV

the second visit to the home and
presence of his ideal love, and
guardian angel. This woman,
by name Mrs. STANDARD, un-
doubtedly would have shaped
Poe's life. When he needed her
most, she passed away. His grief
was unspeakable; the light which
was to show him the path was
blown out. His days were dreary
and dark. At night he lowered
around the grave of his ideal
love. It was this event that
probably gave rise to the appel
lation of MOODY Poet" In ex-
preston of this sorrow he gave
vent to the lines called 'Lenore.
Soon he left the home of his
foster parents and turned to lit
3rature for a livelihood. But as
ycu all know, Poe never made
nv money at writing. He was
door all his life. Many times in
object poverty. Around him
were men far his inferior, and
he knew it, who were becoming
wealthy by the pen. Can we not
I'll realize exactly what this
meant to him. He was married
TO a beautiful young woman,
whom he dearly loved, and who
was dying from slow consump-
zion; and he could not earn
enough at times to buy medicine.
All this merely emphasized his
characteristics. His full cup of
sorrow and grief made him hard.
His antagonism made him enc
mics. Both changed him at times
into fiery demon who could
only be satiated by wine, Poe
himself stated that he got no
pleasure in stimulants, but that
ne INDUCED to escape torturing
memories of wrong, injustice,
imputed dishonor, loneliness,
constant dread of impending
doom, and intolerable sorrow.
This last characteristic is Pc
culiar to his poetry. You can
not read any poem without feel
ing that, underlying pain and
sorrow, which must have had an
outlet in the poetry and was
written at the expense of brain
and poetry.
Poe will be remembered, in adj
dition to his poetry, by his IA
nous poetic principle, Of which

HANUKKAH.

The annual recurrence of Ha-
nukkah recalls to our attention
the fact that the Jews can fight
for a just cause. We hear it 50
often emphasized that the mis-
sion of Israel is Peace, that we
lose sight of the fact that-to
reverse a common saying--there
is glory in war as well as in
peace. 1t is manly to keep away
from strife; but, as at all other
theories, the extreme is herein
also to be avoided. Peace at any
price does not appeal to the vir-
lie part of human nature. For
the sake of quietude we must
often enter strife, and when the
cause is just, we may be assured
that we will prevail.
1t is undoubtedly in this spirit
that the Zionists have chosen
Hanukkah, as their especial hol-
iday. We hear so much and are
so often impressed with Israe.
under persecution, that the
event celebrated on these day;
of Israel as fighter, and as seek.
ing independence, appeals to the
national spirit of those who wish
to rehabilitate the Jews in theil
own country.
At any rate, the lesson WI
learn is that of self-dependence
and that it is often necessary tt
"take arms against a sea of trou
ble." The Maccabeean heroe
will live in history as long a
love of freedom will inspire men
