THE WIRELESS STATION
At A. { NJ. COLLEGE

Mr.. J. B. Dickinson, who has been
lat College several days Installing the
wireless station which he is present
ing to that institution, called on The
Eagle Tuesday and talked interesting
~ of his plans. He said the tower
would be completed and the instru-
ments installed Wednesday, and that
the juice will be turned on at > o'clock
wednesday afternoon. The top Of the
tower is about $50 feet above the
ground. II is, said Mr.. Dickinson, the
greatest and most complete wireless
station possessed by any institution OF
learning in the world. 1t is his inten-
ton to present a similar station to
the University of Texas, which will
enable these two great Texas institu.
tons to talk to each other at will, and
will be strong bond OF union between
them. Mr.. Dickinson does not claim
to be unseltish in these important con
tributions to education; ne recognizes
the fact that the development OF his
system of wireless telegraphy will re-
Quire the services of hundreds OF
Young men, and his primary object IS
to secure these by having them edu-
Gated and trained for this special
work at A. & NJ. college and the Uni
yersity OF Texas. He is confident that
he will have employment for all thus
taught and trained for years to come.
In regard to the Bryan station, Mr..
Dickinson said that he would be pre-
pared to install it as soon as a day
current of sufficient voltage can be
secured. which he thinks will be about
| the first of September. But in this
connection he made an announcement
! of great interest He will leave for
Boston in few days, and when he
returns he will bring two wireless
Itelephones. one for Bryan and the
other for \. & VI. college, which will
be put in operation at once. This new
means Of communication will be op'
Grated for the benefit of the public
under rules to be announced here.

In three European countries the
drinking of absinthe is now prohibited,
Belgium, Holland and Switzerland.
The dangers Of absinthe were early
known and denounced, but it was only
in recent years that thought was given

Belgium started the crusade. A large
amount of the absinthe consumed is
sold in France. where many writer's

land that is the issue of fair elections.
As to this Republicans can point with
pride to their party's record. The par
ty came into power in 1895 and found
in force election laws which had been
made by Democrats and often use by
Democrats to cheat Republicans out of
Offices to which they had been fairly
chosen, and to defeat the will of the
Maryland people.
1--WE gave back to the people of
Maryland self-government through an
honest election law, a law under which
MARYLAND could elect a Democratic Gov
ernor in 1899 and vet give its vote to
Republican President in 1900 We did
not load the dice, we did not stack the
cards. We played the game fairly and
above board, and when the ballots told
JUS the people wanted a change we were
sorry, but did nothing unfair or tricky
or unworthy Of honest men to prevent
the people from having the change they
wanted,
The Republican candidate compared
the course Of the Republicans TO that Of
the Democrats, who began to tamper
and manipulate the election laws, at
tempting to cheat lawful voters, ne
said, at every turn.
"A new order Of administering the
affairs Of the State is demanded by the
people, he continued. There must
/ be an immediate responsiveness to the
will Of the people by public servants
and no further enactment or admins
tration Of law for the benefit of any
political party. The progress and pros
perity Of our State has been ham

conduct Of its affairs. Instead Of eXer-
clsing the functions Of government for
I the benefit of the greatest number they
have been exercised for the building up
and perpetuation of a minority which
constitute the dominant ring.
( Inc extent when we nave suffer-
ed from such government is apparent
to every observant citizen. Many Of the
people have begun to believe that it is
impossible to remove political subser-
vency and compromise from our stat
utes and theil execution. There is,
however. no excuse for believing that
Maryland may not obtain relief through
honesty and progressiveness in its gov
eminent and fully emancipate itself
from partisan selfshness in the great
public business. The people have been

fering in the face of the abuse, but they

PUG|LISTIC FANS
IN JOYFUL MOOD
Mayor Harrison Announces
He Favors Boxing Shows
if Well Conducted.
CARROLL BILL MAY PASS
Local Promoters at Loss to Under
stand Stoppage of Racine
Bouts.

The stamp of approval was placed
on six round boxing bouts in Chicago
by Mayor Harrison and Chief of Po-
lice McWeeney yesterday. The mayor
said he had no objection to allowing
bouts to be held in the city II con-
Quoted along proper lines, and an
nounced that If the Carroll bill, now
before the state legislature becomes a
law, he will hold a consultation with
Chief Now eeney and formulate rules
which the promoters and boxers must
live up to.
Mayor Harrison said he favored box
ing IL the bouts were conducted in a
clean and sportsmanlfke manner, but
made 1t plain he would clamp the lid
on the moment any Irregularities oc-
Cured. 1t was Mayor Harrison who
stopped boxing in Chicago shortly aft
er the Gans-McGovern fiasco at Tat
tersall's and there is no doubt he will
not hesitate to take similar action
again.
The action of the chief executive in
sanctioning boxing met with the ap-
prevail of local pugilistic fans who con-
gregated al fight headquarters yester-
day. The general impression is thai
the bill will pass the house and thai
Chicago once more will have a chance
of seeing some of the best boxers oil
the world in action.

FIT. WAYNE BOUT OFF.
Forbes Coulon Go Halted by
Disagreement.

Failure to agree on weighingin
time between Johnny Coulon and
Harry Forbes for the scheduled Fort
Wayne bout next week made a match
between the two bantams an improba-
bility as far as the Indiana town is
concerned. The difference Of time in
question was just half an hour, but
neither man would yield a point and
the matchmaker gave up all hopes of
trying to get them together.
Coulon wanted to weigh 116 pounds
at o'clock and enter the ring by $50
o'clock, and Forbes insisted lis
pounds at $40 o'clock and be in the
ring by $50 o'clock. The fighters have
been dickering on the go for several
days, and it looked as if 1t might go
through. but the obstinate thirty min
utes stopped it.
Forbes may get a scrap with the To-
gan Square boy in Toronto during
coronation week, however. and get a
chance to square things there The
Toronto match has not yet reached a
definite stage, but ii is expected that
the promoters will get down to real
business soon.
Coulon may be matched to box with
an easterner next week in place of
Forbes.
