Binns had used for the wireless. The

Captain Sealby had realized the ex

two OF the most important Inventions
lof the age have greatly reduced the
danger to human life In travel upon
the sea for 1t was because the RepEb-
Tic was equipped with. the Marconi
system of wireless telegraphy and with
submarine signaling apparatus that
aid was summoned In time to prevent
a great disaster.
The submarine signaling system Is
the result Of an idea suggested to Pro-
lessor Elisha Gray by Arthur ]. Num-
dy of Boston. After the death of Gray
Mr.. Mundy carried on experiments In
this direction and added numerous In
sventions Of his own. thus perfecting
the system. The idea came to Mr..
Mundy from recollection of the SIM
pie experiment often made by boys OF
striking two stones together under
the water when swimming and listen
ing to the sound at some distance. He
knew that water was an excellent
conductor of sound. and the thought
occurred to him that some system
might be devised which would enable
ships at sea in a fog to signal each
other or to learn Of their nearness to
dangerous points of the shore. Pro-
Ifessor GRAY and Mr.. Mundy conducted
experiments near Gloucester about
nine years ago In which a bell weigh
ing 800 pounds was used and which,
The Eureka sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1902-current, 1909-02-27

lbeing rung under the water by a
strong magnetic current moving the
hammer, gave forth such a volume Of
sound as to be heard at a distance Of
fourteen miles Subsequent improve
ments made 1t possible to send the
sound a much greater distance.
The system proved such a success
that the leading ocean steamship lines
placed the apparatus on their vessels
several years ago. 1t has been applied
also In connection with naval vessels.
especially for the purpose of detecting
the approach of torpedo boats. On
merchant vessels by placing transmit
tiers on both sides Of the ship it has
been possible to detect not only the
direction but the approximate distance
and character of the sounds. Receiv-
iers are now located In the pilothouse
of a ship, and In the hold is placed
the transmitter case. where 1t Is pro-
tected from the water and the posi-
lbility Of accident. The signal bell Is
usually located on the side of the ship.
The courage of Captain Sealby and
members of his crew In staying on
board the Republic as long as a chance
of saving her remained excited much
admiration. Not until the Republic
began to settle preparatory to taking
her final plunge beneath the waves did
her captain leave his post. He was al
most too late to v his life and had to
climb to the top Of a mast as the
steamer settled and jump into the
1oaming, surging waves, from which
he was picked up by the Gresham's
men, clinging to some wreckage. after
q battle with the elements which well
nigh exhausted him.
Captain Sealby was born in Vine
land, N. j., forty-six years ago and has
been with the White Star line since he
drst went to sea In 1879. His first yoy-
age was rs IN apprentice In the iron

zelaya Charged With Injecting Salt
Water and Chile Sauce Into
the Blood of His
Victims.
THEN THEY CONFESSED
American Engineer Tells How the
Tyrant of Nicaragua Wrung
Obedience Out of His
Victims.

LOS ANGELES, Dec 21.-Injections
of salt water and chile sauce is the
form of torture attributed to Zelaya
by Marshall O'Neill, civil engineer,
now here. O'Neill went to Nicaragua
to superintend railroad. With 9TH
er Americans he plotted the invasion
of Nicaragua from Honduras. The
conspirators were arrested and sent
enced to be shot, but were saved by
activity of the British consul. Eigh-
teen men and women were arrested
later in connection with a new con-
spiracy. When they refused to con-
fess, hypodermic injections of salt
water, then chile sauce, were admin
istered, according to O'Neill.
They were obdurate, but under
Zelaya's personal direction, O'Neill
charges, mixtures OF salt water and
chile sauce were administered until
the eighteen admitted guilt. They
we're then killed.
O'Neill says the Nicaraguans esti-
mate Zelaya's fortune at from 100000
900 to $50,000,O00 He describes Est
rada as man of progressive ideas.

WHY WOMEN ARE
SHOP LIFTERS
Christmas Shopping Weakens Their
So-called Initiative Impulses
Says Boston Professor.

BOSTON, Dec. 21.-Prof. Hugo
Munsterberg of Harvard has, from a
psychological viewpoint, decided the
much mooted question as to why so
many members of the fair sex fall
from grace during the Christmas sea
son by becoming, in the varnacular OF
the courts, "shoplifters.'
The noted investigator, summing up
the question briefly, states that the
reason why women pilfer pretty arti-
cles in the stores is because women
have duller moral PERCEPTION than
man, and in consequence are less like
ly to restrain the so-called initiative
impulse"
1t would seem from further study,
according to the professor. that the
initiative impulse so weakens the
moral responsibility that the women
fail to resist the temptation of steal
ing pretty articles when they see
other women purchasing.

James j. Hill Suggests This Remedy
as the Best Thing just at
Present for Our
Country.
THE CAPITAL Is NOT ALL
More Foodstuffs Needed--When Work
ers curtaiI Profits Of Capital,
Country Will Face
Crisis.

SPOKANE, Wash, Dec. 21.-"What
the United States needs most of all
Just now is to give business rest
cure Let up on this agitation and
do more work and less talking in try
ing to solve the great economic ques-
tions. The rest cure is the thing.
James j. Hill, chairman of the
board of directors of the Great North
ern Railway company, who is in the
northwest with Howard Elliott, pres
ident of the Northern Pacific Railway
company. and Darius Miller, first vice
president of the Burlington system,
suggested the foregoing remedy after
diagnosing the country's ailments. Mr..
Hill came to Spokane for a confer
ence with Jay p Graves, president
of the Spokane & Inland Empire
Electric Railway system, In which he
recently acquired controlling inter-
est. He added:
The people, not capital, make ths
country advance, but capital must be
employed to keep the people at some
| occupation. When workers curtail
the profit of capital then the country
will face a serious condition. do not
say this will happen, but do say that
we must work to ward OF even the
probability of facing a situation OF
this kind. The way to do this is to
keep the people employed. Give them
occupation, and the Northwest can
help nightly to do it at the present
time. We need more foodstuffs.

but this is no time to make a COM
parison as to the brightness Of the
outlook don't know what to think
of certain conditions. and for that
reason / would not say that America
will face happy holiday season or
that 1T won't, taking the financial
status of the states as basis
Mr.. Hill announced officially that
the Hill lines will traverse the Des
Chutes country, where the Hartman
system is now active.
