Engineers Working Upon Prob
lem Of Paris to Madrid Line.
Efforts Being Made to Overcome Dis
tortins Effects OF Long Lines by
What Is Called Loading" to
Facilitate Speech.

London.-Telephone engineers all
over the world are endeavoring to
solve the problem of long distance
work. and it may be possible soon to
speak from London to Madrid via
Paris.
The French postal administration
has forwarded to Madrid for sigma
ture a preliminary agreement on the
question of a Paris Madrid telephone
line. When the agreement is signed
the laying of the telephone wires will
be commenced. The line from Lon
don to Madrid via Paris would be
about 1000 miles long. The British
post Office regard 700 miles as the
limit for ordinary working. but in
some recent tests telephone conver-
sations were held between Liverpool
and Marseilles. distance of just over
1000 miles.
There are two main difficulties in
the way of long distance telephony.
The first is that the greater the dis
tance the weaker will be the sounds
heard I'm the telephone; the second
is that an electrical property Of all
telephone lines known as capacity"
bends the waves transmitted through
the wires out of shape and distorts
the sounds. The 20 miles Of subma-
rine telephone cable between Sangat.
te and ST. Margarets Bay on the Lon
don-Paris line is as great a drawback as
two or three hundred miles of over
head line, and ii is this that demands
caution in talking or speaking from
London to great distances abroad.
Telephone engineers are trying to
overcome the distorting effects of long
lines by what is called loading" AT
short intervals along the line small
coils of wire are placed across the two
telephone lines. and these, II spaced at
distances properly in accord with the
now historical calculations OF Pupin
overcome the effects and render
speech possible over much greater dis
tances.

BITTER DOG FIGHT IN COURT
Sheep.KilIina Canine Attacks Farm.

tains Her Dog.

Ovid. Mlch.-A justice court was
thrown into a panic by dog fight the
other day during the hearing of dog
case Mrs. Mae Cameron was on trial
on the charge of harboring a sheep
killing dog She formerly owned two
dogs whose particular delight, 1t is
alleged, was TO raid focks of sheep.
John Holland suffered the loss of nine
sheep killed and several injured 9th
er farmers also suffered losses. Mrs.
Cameron finally put one of the dogs to
death. but refused to kill the other.
Complaint was made and she was
arrested and hailed into court She
brought the dog into court with her.
One of the numerous interested spec
tators also brought along his dog. The
two dogs met and were soon mixed
up in chewing contest Women
screamed and rushed for the door,
while men wrestled with the canine
combatants to pull them apart.
The dogs separated and the hearing
proceeded. Mrs. Cameron was ad.
judged guilty and taxed $3S.40. At
last accounts she still had her dog.

the limbo of forgotten things.
Next Esperanto was brought out
with copious assurances that II was
indeed the real thing. Then came Ro,
another artificial language said to be
perfectly good The latest addition to
the list is called lido. There may have
been others, but we do not now recall
them.
All these ready.made languages have
this feature in common, that they
look like what is called hog Latin"
and sound like It when one tries to
speak the words. They are constructed
mostly from Latin roots, with few
conveniently adaptable Anglo-Saxon
ones mixed in. Their simplicity" is
in the use of a large variety of ter
limitations to denote gender and num-
ber in the case of verbs.
That no artificial language will ever

sion. Only live one can bee 1me uni
