Wireless. by Nioht.
From the Literary Dires

From the Literary Digest.
1he new wireless telegraph post on
the Ethel Tower, in Paris, uses such
high electrical tensions that the anten-
nae glow by night with the brush-dis-
charges h a they give Oft. and even
when this glow can not be seen with
the k eye 1t can be photographed,
owing to the richness OF the electrical
glow In ultraviolet rays. This plant,
which Is said to be the largest now i'm
existence is able to raise the electrical
of h antennae to several
million volts. 1t includes apparatus
that produces sparks In such rapid sue
cession that the listener at the receiv-
ing telephone hears a musical note.

'Ihe installation of this important

to the inundation, is now entirely fin-

slight expenditure of energy. Soon ou1.

greater electric power, which Will en-

AT present. on h word of all men
competent to judge. the FIiffel Tower
station Is without rivil anywhere in the
world"
The Eiffel Tower station. the writer
goes on to say, has at its disposal about
~ horsepower. which will shortly be
increased to 300. 1t includes two large
nails. one for the transmission and re,
ception of messages. the other contain
ing the high-tenslon electrical appara-
tus. Messages are received soleiy by
sound. with the electrolytic detector OF
Commandment Ferrie. The tension is
very high in parts OF the apparatus. Az
we read:
The current, which traverses the
nall of manipulation at a tension of 220
volts, not dangerous in case of acciden-
tai contact. passes into the high-ten-
sion room. where It's tension is raised
to 100, 200 volts.
AT h top Of the %antennae, insulated
from h Eiffel Tower by more than
20 feet of %insulators, the tension caches
several millions Of volts. On some
nights the electric %effluvia render the
%antennae luminous. Even when this is
not the case, II the Tower be photo

uret the wires appear white on account
OF the ultraviolet radiations, invisible
to h eye. which leave their impress
IN the plate.
1T should be added that the normal
length Of the Hertzian waves sent out
by this apparatus reaches 1900 meters
(nearly a mile and a half).

STATESMEN'S LIVES
TOLD BY DIRECTORY
Adam Brown Littlepage Re
quires 400 Words to Relate
His Modest Career.

Washington-The directory Of the
Sixty-second congress. first session, is
out at last. 1t introduces to the litera-
ture of Who's Who" many shining
lights that w would have glimmered
afar had it not been for that landslide
Of November. 1910. Now we have the
1911 crop of statesmen. not as some
flattering b%iographer sees them, but as
they see themselves. Your senator's
n your representatives In congress
write their own life stories for the
directory, mi some Of them are highly
interesting.
For instance. there Is Adam Brown
Littlepage. Ever hear Of Adam Brown
Littlepage? No? Well. there are sew
a million more Of your fellow coun-
trymen In the same boat.
By meridian Wednesday,, however,
the name ought to be a household word
n go laundering down the ages, for
Mr.. Littlepage. who has come { o con-
gress from the Third district of West
Virginia, has told all about himself in
q manner that makes his biography the
piece de resistance Of the directory.
only wonder how 1t has progressed to
its present stage without the assistance
OF q self-sacrificing hero who is safe,
sound and warranted to stand without
hitching. which is something the ordi-
nary statesman cannot be counted upon
to do always in these days. even when
he is known as a standpatter.
But let us take the story as
modestly written by the subject. with
out the crossing of a t. the dotting Of
ian !. or h changing Of a comma. Here
1t is:
Adam Brown Littlepage, democrat.
Of Charleston, was born On April IA,
1859. ear Charleston. Kanawha county,
West Virginia. His father was killed
in q duel at Dublin. Va, in 1862, who at
the time Of his death. had accumulated
southern armies confiscated and de-
stroyed about everything the family
had, with the exception Of the land
and one dwelling house built Of stone.
thereby reducing the family to want.
adam was h youngest Of five boys.
student and faithful worker all his life,
a consistent democrat. never wavering
In his political convictions. He has es-
tablished a very lucrative law practice
at Charleston.
Was nominated in a district 1920
republican for thes state senate at West
Virginia in 1906, and was elected. serv-
ing four years, making a fine record;
and in 1910 he was nominated by the
democratic congressional convention
by reclamation Owe his protest and
against his will. while he va in an
other state trying a law case. He re-
garded the nomination a party call, and
went into the race against Joseph Holt
Gaines, the republican nominee. to
overcome q republican majority In the
district in round numbers OF about
$500.
I'm that campaign Mr.. L~ittlepage
made 1903 speeches-sometimes three
speeches a day-and waged the most
determined contest that has ever been
witnessed in West Virginia, with the
result that he 0vercame the republican
. majority Of 1866 votes. being the first
democrat elected In the district in
about 20 years. His district included

Has Bill for Pure Seed

Commissioner Fred H. Phillips Of the Department Of Agriculture says he is preparing a bill to be presented to the Arkansas General Assembly requiring that nothing but pure seed be sold in Arkansas. This bill will be similar to the acts in force in many other states. and aims 10 cor rect the evil practiced by many deal CTS of shipping to this state grea. quantities Of garden. farm and flower seed containing many noxlous weed seeds and cracked grains. and in many cases having but d small Der cent over half Of germinatirg seed. If the bill as proposed becomes a law, dealers in seeds will have to ger. tify 10 the agricultural deqartrae that their seed is pure. and where the seed does not come up to the re- quired standard the dealers certifv- ing their seed to be pure will bc prosecuted.

Approve Income Tax.

Senate joint resolution by Senator Coyington. providing an amendment to the constitution authorizing the levy Of an income tax, vas passed by the senate with little opposition
 Senator Covington stated that the re was strong sentiment in the state for such a law, which was preferable to the one proposed by congress. h. stead of a federal income tax. he said, the people Of Arkansas would prefer a tax from which the state. instead of the general government, would derive the benefit.
