Manager McNlcol OF the Postal Tele-
graph company delivered an interesting
lecture last night, at the Y. NJ c. A.
before a large audience, on Wireless
Telephony" He said It was possible to
have conversation to a distance OF
mile with the use of the simple appa-
ratus. The recent discovery Of the high
ly valuable properties possessed by slle-
MUM have made wireless telephony
practical The Hertz waves have been
so far applied with the use of arc lamps
and n system of energizing the vocal
sounds uttered into Il telephone trans
mitter that 30 miles are easily covered
with the method. Results have been
obtained up to $50 miles. although the
latter distance was achieved during eX
perimental work Mr.. MCNicol said
that wires. both telegraph and tele-
phone. would soon be a thing of the
past The present commercial value
of wireless teleph ny, he said. had been
demonstrated by the use made of the
service by the feet at sea. constant
communication being maintained be-
tween the ships. The system for serv-
ice on the sea coast was bound soon to
command the attention of all nations.

She explained that she was able to see
things vaguely which is an explana-

described Samuel as an old man COM

denunciatory rcproof as Saul was ac-
eustomed TO receive during Samusl's
lifetime.
In other words. Saul received from
the lips of the woman the same

description Of Samuels appearance.
nothing new IN the spirit message he

The Indian campaigns OF Sanpete

AS early as 1858 Colonel John r,
Wlnder collected ana made up the ac-
counts OF the expenses of that war, and
the matter was brought to the atten-
ton of Congress by Utah's delegate,
William IL, Hooper. The amount was
$1100,000, no portion OF which has ever
been paid.
Delegate Hooper had previously been
successful in having adjusted certain
claims for Indian wars during the early

A Boston preacher advocates tn

A Boston preacher advocates the
formation of labor union among
ministers as a movement looking to
securing higher pay for pastors One
of the provisions of the suggested
union is a strike for more salary, If a
strike is necessary to bring about a
raise. The suggestion promits the
Cedar Rapids Gazette to say:
1t Is wonder some pastors don't
resort to desperate measures to get
decent pay. While many ministers
are paid large salary, great many
more are forced to accept wages fear
| fully meager considering the demands
made upon their time and upon their
pocketbooks, and the cost of properly
fitting themselves for the work of the
ministry. A laborer is worthy of his
/ hire. and any number of ministers are
worth a great deal more than they re-
ceive. 1t is no wonder that there is
less of a disposition among young
| men to enter the clerical profession.
