The Point Of View.

This is true story. A certain belle
was present at a certain Chopin re-
cital. During the "Marche Funebre,"
her eyes glistened and her whole at
titude of rapt attention was as If the
music had entranaced her very soul.
Her whole face was expressive of ad-
miration and intense interest When
the pianist had finished, the escort of
Miss Belle" turned to her and said:
",How beautiful" To which she re-
piled: YES, indeed; doesn't 1t fit her
exQuisitely in the back? How much
do you suppose 1t cost in Parish"

Consumption Spreads in Syria.

consumption Spreads In Syria.
Ccnsumptives in Syria are treated
today much in the same way as the
lepers have been for the last 1000
years. tuberculosis is comparative
ly recent disease among the Arabs and
Syrians, but so rapidly has 1t spread
that the natives are in great fear of
it. Consequently when a member OF
a family is known to have the disease,
he is frequently cast out and compelled
to die of exposure and want. A small
hospital for consumptives has been
opened at Beyrout under the direction
of DR.. Mary P. Eddy.

WIRELESS INVENTOR
SCORES UNCLE SAM
As BEING UNW|SE
GreaM Aid Should Be
Given Development Of
Communication.

Arraigning the United States Gov
eminent for what he terms, q reclS
less expenditure of money in promoting
the science of aviation, while the sys.
TENS Of wireless telegraphy and tele-
phony have been given hut little If any
encouragement, William Dubilier, CHIEF
engineer of the Commercial Wireless
Telephone and Telegraph Company OF
Seattle, Wash, today stated that none
Of the wireless companies of this coun-
try will again try 20 interest the Fed
eral Government in this science.
Thousands of dollars have been spent
by inventors and manufacturing conf
panies, Mr.. Dubilier said. in an endeav-
or to interest the United States Gov
eminent in the new method OF trans
uniting messages by the wireless sys-
tens. The officials never have shown
any inclination of warming up" to
these propositions.
Foreigners First.
Foreign governments are to be
given the first opportunity to test and
purchase the inventions Of Americans, -
he continued. I'm about five years,
this country will wake up to the real
ization of the fact that it Is behind the
other nations, and then will be forced
to trail along behind"
Mr.. Dubtller New Yorker by birth
ana the youngest inventor of wireless
apparatus, is in Washington to obtain
certain papers from the State Depart
ment. which will permit him to carry
his instruments abroad, ana return them
10 this country, without having them
inspected by the Government officials.
More than $1,000 lives have been
saved directly by wireless telegraphy
ana telephony since the invention OF
tn0se systems" he said this morning
The aeroplane has done nothing, thus
Tar, to further science. Yet the United
States Government will spend annually
thousands of dollars for perfecting the
spectacular flying machine, while the
pTacucal wireless methods of commune
cauon have been discouraged, rather
than encouraged.
But Twenty-three.
1T is distressing that this Govern
ment should be SO far behind other
governments in this important science"
Mr.. Dubilier is but twenty-three years
OF age. He was born in Vienna, but
came to America when a child. He
was reared in New York East Side, and
worked his way through the high
schools of his city, and later through
electrical schools.
Recently his inventions brought him
IN good sum of money, and a wireless
station, having the tallest wireless post
in the world, was erected in Seattle.
Messages have been sent and received
from distance of 800 miles by this
station.

TAMPA, Fla, Sept. N.-Sensational
allegations that the death of Sister
Sadie Marchant was not due to the
chloroform administered by Brother
Egbert Gillette have convulsed the
Shaker colony at Kissimmee, and the
general feeling Of approval Of the act
Of Gillette in aiding the hopeiessly sick

been replaced with one Of wonder.
Gillette is in the Jail here, held with
out bail on a charge of murder. The
attorneys for the prosecution emphati-

cations indicate that the sensational
euthanasia case presented by the friends
of Gillette has been upset, and that the
case is a plain one Of murder with
the motive still obscure.
She Was Young Woman.
The autopsy, It is explained, proved
conclusively that instead of being in
the last stages of consumption, Sister
Sadie was afflicted with the malady
onk in an incipient form. Instead OF
being a very aged woman, the doctors
who performed the autopsy, say she was
only about thirty-five years old ana dis

Gillette. who is sixty years of age, has
a big cell to himself in the county jail
where he will remain, unless his at
torneys try to get him oct by habeas

The case of the State has been
strengthened by the story Of Brother

deserted Gillette. He told oil about the

County Division.

The bill leaving the question
Of county division to a vote of
the people, has passed both the
senate and the house, according
to telegram which was received
from the state capitol Wednes-

This law takes from the hands
Of the Legislature the right to de-
eide whether or not a county
shall be divided and will give the
people a chance to have some
SAY in the matter. Du1ing the
present session, 20 different divi-
sion schemes were brought be-
Fore the legislature, nearly all of
which We're thrown out upon ex-
hmintion by the committee. The
bounty division propositions have
aiken up much valuable time of
