"Singing Sparks" Wireless
Plan Is Said to Be a
Great Success.
IT is A GERMAN INVENTION

Berlin. May 15.-"Singing sparks" is
the expressive name given to an
improved wireless system just perfect
ed. A new device, it is claimed, will
entirely obviate the uncertainties with
which other wireless systems hitherto
have had to contend.
The new method consists in sending
out the vibrations, which for use fo1
the messages pure musical tones which
are capable of being heard by the re-
ceiver, no matter how softly they may
be attuned.
It is declared by the inventors that
by means of this device it will be pos
vible to maintain communication in
spite Of the most violent atmospheric
disturbances and that it will be posi-
bile to work with most smaller anten-
uae. for the actual wires by which the
energy is assembled.
In their passage through the air the
singing sparks will be entirely noise.

We propose to furnish you, from

information regarding the public at.
fairs of Chouteau county, the data
being compiled from the official c

are given proper attention, you will
be in a position to form q fair and
unbiased opinion as to whether the
proposed removal of the county.seat
has merit as q matter Of economy In
the administration of county affairs.
The promoters of this county.seat
removal scheme are making the alb.
surd and deceptive claim that it would
"save the taxpayers thousands of
dollars." On the contrary, 1t would
make q large addition to the county
expenditures, and-as you know from
personal experience-the taxpayers
must foot the bills for any increase In
county expenses.
In the event of the removal of the
county .seat, the present court house
and jail-which are the property of
Chouteau county taxpayers-would
be abandoned. At the new seat of
county government provision would
have to be made for building q new
court house-which, according to
modern ideas, would cost $4,000 or
more-and . e jail, or lease build

But on examination it proves to be

at that. The features are large and
the face high colored. but it is not a
delicate pink. It is a coarse red. At a
distance the effect is charming, bright,
