this city business was practically sus-
pended and the day given over to mer
ry-making. The joy of the loyal Dutch
men is increased by che report that
the queen will soon be visited by the
stork. Two or three times previously
such a report has gone forth, only to
end in disappointment. Unless an
heir is born to the queen, the throne
will pass to the German branch of
the royal family, and Dutchmen fear
that this will result in finally making
country a German dependency.
The queen was married in 1901, to
Duke Henry of Mecklenburg-Schwer
in. Her married life has been marred
by many quarrels, and this has serv-
ed to excite the wrath of the subjects
of h queen, with the result that her
consort is perhaps the most unpopu-
lar man in Holland.

The campaign of the Republicans.

will oon be in full swing throughout
the West. The western literary Jul
eau, in charge of Victor Rosewater,
sending out literature n if sufficient
funds can be secured, the western
country will be plastered with Republi

and pamphlets. AS the Republicans
nave the trusts and corporate inter

doubt of there securing funds through
the usual compulsory ymethods adopt
ed during the past by that party.
1t is admitted that the campaign
managers will have hard work to
hold several western states in the
Republican column. Conditions in Min
nesota and Indiana, especially, are
causing the Republicans considerable
worry, and the prospects are, hat
Bryan may carry both Of these long

ers declare they will cary both OF

THE WIRELESS TELEPHONE.
Professor Fessenden Discovers Three
Distinct Ways OF Sending Electro
magnetic Waves.

magnetic waves.
Prof. Fessenden began his work up
on the problem Of wireless telephony
in 1898, while carrying on his inves-
LEGATIONS in wireless telegraphy. At
this time scientist had developed three
distinct methods of sending electro
magnetic waves off into space from
tail mast, or antenna, as it is tech
nically termed.
Experiments showed that none Of
these methods would do for tele-
phony. They gave single waves, sep
arated by distinct intervals. This
was not harmful for wireless telegra-
ply, where signals consist of a Sc
ries of clicks, but such single waves
were useless for transmitting words,
the continuity of which must not be
broken.
He decided that what was needed
was a means for producing long
trains of waves, and devised appara-
tus for this purpose. Prof. Fessen-
den surmounted the difficulties, says
Harper's Weekly, and designed a ma
chine which would give the desired
electrical results, and 1t is now in use
the rotating field making 10000 rev.
olutions per minute, and has for
weeks been giving off an electrical
current which changes its direction no
less than $4,000 times per second.
Apparatus for receiving the voice
energy is of a comparatively simple
character. An antenna is erected to
divert to earth a portion OF the ener-
gy in the electromagnetic waves, and
densers, built up of plates of a
metal which is good conductor of
electricity, separated by layers of air
together with coils of wire, are con-
nected in such way as to tune the
.antenna to the same electrical pitch
as the one at the sending station.
Once this tuning apparatus has been
adjusted, electrical oscillations are
set up in the circuit when subjected
to the repeated impact OF the waves
in the same way that the repeated
soundings of a note on a musical in
strument will set in vibration other
ebjects which give out a similar tone
In this receiving circuit, through
which passes the energy absorbed
from the waves, is included some re.
ceiving circuit, through which passes
the energy absorbed from the waves
is included some receiving device
which will respond to every slightest
fluetuation of electrical current. The
effect Of this receiving device is to
magnify the weak fluctuations, giving
them sufficient strength to operate
an ordinary telephone receiver. The
latter instrument retransforms the
electrical waves into sound waves,
which unite to produce words similar
to those spoken into the distant trans
mitter.

of White Bluffs recently, the event
being held to mark the formal fare.

vorite camping and fishing grounds
in this part OF the Columbia river
country, says a White Bluffs dis
patch. A large number Of Indians
from the Yakima valley and other
parts of the state were present to
take part in the ceremony, the Sec
ond of its kind ever held in the state.
The farewell ceremony was witnessed
by number of the new residents of
the valley, whose coming is respon-
slble for the passing of the red man.
After the dance had progressed for
three days. and the chiefs OF the diff
ferent bands present had visited tine
old camp grounds, which marked the
scenes of their victories In battle in
the Yakima Indian war, the assem-
blage feasted for IL hours, while the
squaws prepared the camp for final
leave taking.
The ceremony was timed to take
place at the first quarter of the moon,
Chief Tomanawas OF the Columbia
river tribe, acting as the war god to
salute the coming OF the white race.
At duck, the heads OF the bands
visited their former burylng grounds.
requesting the new owners Of the
land to let their departed brothers
rest undisturbed. This rite being car
ried out with much ceremony and
pomp, the Indians all assembled at
the waters edge. where small fires
had been started and the flames
smothered. AS the moon appeared at
a certain point in the heavens the
squaws at a signal from the head

ed herself before the central fire and
as her voice gave expression to tones
like the wall of a lost soul, each fire
in turn, was uncovered and the
squaws formed a circle about them.
At points between the fires the chiefs
took positions each decked out in all
the war togs of the old days, their
dress being the breech clout
and war clubs.
Younger squaws, with the old fash
ioned pestle and mortar, were grind
ing a feed, which had been charmed
by the medicine men. and which was
to be used in the big feast. The
chanting of the squaws lasted about
20 minutes, when Chief Tomanawas
rose from a crouching position in the
center of the big circle. and. giving
a shout which echoed along the hills,
commanded all the tribes people as
sembled to harken to the last voice

reclted the history Of the deeds Of

whites, and with tribes Of Indians In

At the close OF his address, he
squatted on the ground, and every
Indian In the assemblage Joined the
chant OF the aged squaw, who dur
ing all the chiefs big talk, had lain
upon the ground, squirming and
wriggling to free herself from the
bands which bound herself and the
others Of the tribe to this part Of the
river lands. She suddenly uttered a
fearful scream and fell In faint.
Without paying any attention to
her the balance OF the Indians, with
out any formality, gathered about the
"mullIgans" which had been prepared

justice to the feed. At the conclu-
sion Of the feast, the big dance was
held, part OF the Indians doing the
torture dance with their clubs.
When this was concluded all but the
chiefs knelt on the river edge and an
