Make LOVE VIA
THE WIRELESS

New York, June 29.-After a court.
SNIP carried on by wireless telegraph
and communication transmitted over
steam pipes connecting two apartments.
and which resulted in an elopement
and wedding two weeks ago when
Annabelle Rooney, nineteen years of
age, 1853 Washington avenue, the
Bronx, became Mrs. James Connolly.
the young couple returned to the home
of the brides parents today and were
forgiven.
Connolly, who is TWENTY-FIVE wears
of age, was graduated from the CIason
Point Military academy year ago
There ne learned wireless telegraphy.
and when ne returned to the place where
he boarded on the floor above the
apartment occupied by the Rooney
family, he rugged up a wireless sta
ton on the lOof. Here he taught An
nabelle how to send and take mes
sages, and this knowledge was turned
to Cupid's account when Connolly
asked Annabelle's parents for her
hand, only to be laughed at as a bow
by her father
Cut off from any other communica-
ton with each other, the young low
ers exchanged messages by wireless
when Connolly went back to the mill
tary academy to pursue his special
Marconi studies. When he returned
to his boarding place on the floor
above the Rooney home, he and An
nabelle raped out the language of
love with shears on the steam pipes.
The rappings ceased when Anna
belle eloped with Connolly two weeks
ago. They We're married at st. Johns
Baptist church, and Immediately be-
TOOK themselves to furnished fiat.

MAINE G. 0. P. HAS A MEET
Will Nominate a State Ticket in Au-
gusta Today.

Augusta, Me-, June 29.-With Harry
B. Austin of Phillips, presiding as
chairman, an honor refused by Senator
Hale, the republican state convention
of Maine was called to order at ten
o'clock this morning in the Augusta
city hall. The purpose of the conven-
ton is to nominate candidates for gov
ernor and state auditor and to transact
other business. Governor Fernald, in all
probability, will be renominated by ac-
clamation.
Conservative republican leaders of
Maine, while confident of success in the
September election, admit that they are
facing what promises to be the bitter
est political struggle in years. Two
years ago, Governor Fernald was elected
by an mcomfortably narrow margin,
and the democrats are working hard in
the hope of wiping out the majority;
this year.
The fight for control of the legisla-
ture is more than for governor, since the
next legislature will choose a successor
W oHllcu otdleS IotlldlOG
who has announced his retirement.
The republican candidates for the
United States senate are former AS
sistant Justice of the Supreme Court
Frederick A. Powers of Houlton, and
former Governor William r. Cobb of
Rockland. 1t is claimed Judge Powers
activity in opposing Senator Hale caused
the latter to announce his retirement.
Montpelier, VT, June Montpelier
hotels are today filling-.up with politi
clans in advance of the republican state
convention which will be called to order
here at nine o'clock tomorrow morning.
Candidates to be nominated include
governor, lieutenant governor, state
treasurer, secretary of state, state audi
tor and attorney general. A state com
mittee, composed of one number from
each county, vii also be elected.

TESTING THE cHAUFFEUR's WITS

About all that is now required of a
chauffeur, even of the licensed sort, is
a knowledge of his car and his tool
kit. To know how to run a car, how
to stop it and how to repair it-these
are three essentials, but they do not
go, after all, into the question in which
the public is most interested. They
throw no light, says the Chicago Post,
whatever upon the chautfeur's mental
and physical fitness to control a death
dealing machine in crowded streets, and
there is no doubt that many accidents
have been due not to the criminal
carefulness of the driver, but to pre-
cisely this thing, his phsicial inability
to do the right thing at the right mo-
ment.
Men differ greatly in this capacity.
Some men see more quickly, think
than do others. If it were possible
to test them in these reactions and
establish practical presence of mind
standard, q whole lot of men and boys
would have to climb down from the
seats of the mighty and give way to
Others better equipped for such re-
sponsible place.
1t is interesting, therefore, to note
the success which seems to be attend
ing the efforts of the Psychological Lab
oratory of Harvard university to solve
this definite problem, Mr.. Charles
Sherwood Kicker Harvard psycholo
gist, has invented an instrument which
is said to give an admirable register
of these subtle capacities. His APP
paratus involves the flashing of certain
signal lights before the eyes of the
candidate, and the rapidity with which |
the latter recognizes them and re-
spends is registered on a revolving cyl |
inder covered with smoked paper Those
whose lines indicate hesitation or con-
fusion, it is suggested are unfit for
the chauffers job, and the only ques-
ton remaining is the determination of
a practical standard upon which IL
cense boards could agree
When this is worked out-and it |
promises to be very shortly-we shall
have a better test of the chauffeur than
either sex or age requirements, though
there will still remain the problem of
The human will and its pronencess to
grow reckless of the rights of Others
But perhaps we can look to the Rick
ers and Muensterburgs for a polysyl-
able apparatus which may search out
wen the human heart of its secrets.

INCREASED STEEL DIVIDENDS
Net Earnings Are Thirty-One Million
On "COmmon."

New York, June 29.-Checks were dis
tributed today among the holders of
the common stock of the United States
Steel Corporation in payment of the
~ per cent quarterly dividend, the
first disbursement since "steel common"
was placed on five per cent basis.
For the first quarter of this year the
'steel trust" showed earnings, all ex-
penses incident to operation being de-
Quoted, of $37 6l6,76O, showing which
has been exceeded only once for this
quarter, in the great year 1907, when
the earnings aggregated $50, ,492.
For the corresponding quarter of 1909
the earnings were $22,92l ,26S. The
March 81 quarter is normally the least
profitable of the year.
The net earnings for the quarter are
SD SOB, 1914. From the net earnings
are deducted $5S76,Gl2 interest for
the quarter OH outstanding bonds and
81 .435,35l for sinking funds, leaving

WILL BRING OUT PRIVATE HOARDS

As soon as the new system of postal
banks goes into operation there
should be an end to the hiding of
money on the person or in supposedly
well concealed places about the prem
ises. Trunks are not safe repositories
nor are carpet edges, dark crannies or
stove holes. Uncle Sam will shortly
offer to receive deposits of money at
designated postoffices from any person
over ten years of age and will pay
two per cent interest. A class who will
not trust any bank, however umeasOn-
able such overcautious people may be,
is known to exist, and now the ques-
ton is if they will have faith enough
IN the national government to confide
surplus of money to it, at interest,
rather than carry it around sewed in
clothing or in the traditional stocking
stuffed in some odd nook presumed to
be unnoted by the lynx eyes of the
dishonest. A large amount of cur
rency is believed to be kept out of
circulation by boarding of this hazard
GUS sort. The Globe-Democrat says the
new law should bring it out. One ar
gument for the passage of the law
assumed that the money now in con-
eealment would be poured into the ac-
tive channels of business
Postal banks are an, old institution
in other leading countries, where their
depositors have the benefit of cash
credit with the government, and the
money is available at any postoffice.
A Canadian depOsitor, for example,
wherever he may travel, has what is
practically government letter of
credit to the extent of his deposit, and
needs but to identify himself at any
Dominion postoffice to draw upon or
add to it. France, the most famous
land of thrift for men, women and
children, has a great aggregate of
postal deposits, and the French people,
under government vigilance, are accus-
toned to oversubscribe public loan,
or to pick up good bargain even if
miliiard or two are required. Under
the new law in the United States
deposit of 81 will be received, but a
system of saving by dimes will be
facilitated. The maximum of deposit
is fixed at $500. Evidently, the design
is to encourage saving among persons of
small means, under the government
guarantee of security. Ordinary savings
banks pay much higher rate of in
terest and will continue their large
utilities on proved sound basis.
