DOINGS SATURDAY
Will Erect New Building

An addition to the grandstand and
new merchants display building
were ordered, at meeting of the Of
ficers and directors of the Watertown
Inter-County Fair association held
last evening. Vice President G. M.
Gahlman presided Plans and speci-
fcations are being prepared by Otto
G. Riebe, and bids will be asked for.
The bids on the grandstand extension
of 48 feet must be in the architect S
hands not later than June % at p.
N. The plans for the merchants
building are now being prepared.
This building will be 80 feet wide and
sc feet long and will afford ample
space for the display of goods and
manufactures. This building will be
constructed on the west side Of the
grounds, Immediately south Of the
main entrance. In this building will
be the secretary's office, which will
be handy to people having business
with the secretary, as it can be trans
acted at the gateway.
The money for these improvements
was subscribed by our citizens and
the soliciting committee which circu-
lated the list, although not quite
through with their work, are thank
full for the good will expressed and
the generous support given the fair
by the people.
The building of the new structure
will add another exhibit room to the
grounds, making three in all. One
of the older buildings will be devoted
to agricultural displays and will be
known as the agricultural building,
while the one built in the form of a
cross will be known as the fine arts

Graduate Of University Of Chicago.
The inventor, Mr.. Collins, Is an
alumnus Of the old University Of Chi
cago, and has been experimenting with
wireless telephony since 1899. He
patented his invention just after the
dawn OF the Twentieth Century and
continued to develop and improve it
until In July, 1908, he made his longest
distance test from his laboratory In
Newark, N. j., to Philadelphia, Pa,
where another instrument was located
In the Land Title Building. This test Is
technically described at length in the
Sclenticf1c American Of Sept. 10, 1908.
Since that time the growth of the
wireless telephone idea has been phe-

Hurt in Runaway

August Buege, aged 68 years, who
resides in North Second street, was
seriously injured in runaway acct
dent in West Milwaukee street this
morning, and is now at his home in
critical condition. He was driving
a horse in West Milwaukee street
when one Of the thills became loose
and dropped down, soaring the horse,
which ran away, throwing Mr.. Buege
forcibly to the ground. AS a result
his shoulder was broken as was also
his collar bone and several ribs and
he sustained internal injuries as

him removed to his home in ST.

tsat It will be practical for applica-
ton to an Exchange" OF an indefinite
number of Collins wireless telephones.
Explanation Of the System.
The vibrations are started from the
transmitter and converted into cleo
trio waves in the instrument just as
In an ordinary telephone. There are
three types Of Collins instruments, op-
Grated as follows:
l. Electromagnetic Induction Tor
short distance demonstrations.
Z. Conductivity system designed for
commercial purposes within limited
radius.
! 8. Oscillation arc system for long
distances up to 100 miles.
+ Ether tho Medium.
Ether, that tenuous gas Wnlcn we
usually think OF rs occupying the
space beyond the air among the stars
ether really pe-meates everything,
the inters.ices of wood, steel, glass,
earth, water-everything. All matter
Is more or less porous. Ether pene-
trates where air and water and every
thing else are excluded. The electric
impulses generated In the Collins
wireless telephone are propagated
through space via "ether waves"
somewhat similar to the wireless tele-
graph.
At the receiving instrument these
ether waves impinge upon the receiv-
Ing apparatus and are reconvertsd
