Use of Photograph.

The detective photograph has been
used for many odd purposes besides
catching criminals.
When Torrey and Alexander, the
revivalists, were holding their meet
ings in philadelphia in 1909, there
was demand for seats far beyond
the 5000 capacity of the armory in
which they preached. BY request,
Mr.. Turner installed a photograph
transmitter, suspending it from the
ceiling about three feet above the
speakers head and six feet in front
of him. The wires from this trans
mitter were connected, by specially
constructed apparatus, with 1850
telephones whose subscribers heard
the service in their homes. AT the
same time wires were run to Beth
any church, where a large horn In
the pulpit gave out the sound TO
$500 more auditors, SO that, alto
gether, 10000 people heard the mu-
sic and preaching at once.
The photograph has been used also
to study the minor activity of Mt.
vesuvis between eruptions; to en-
able a man to hear the sounds made
by wild beasts when undisturbed by
men; in the Metropolitan opera
house and in the Hudson theater'
New York, to permit the managers
to hear the rehearsals on the stage
from their private Offices; to enable
representatives in Congress, while
sitting in their rooms in the office
building, to hear the debates on the
floor of the House.

HORSE MORTALITY
RATE QUITE HIGH
In the State of West Virginia
as Shown by the Crop
Reporter.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 20
The year ending March 81, 1912,
was rather an unsatisfactory year
for live stock in West Virginia. ac-
cording to figures published in the
Crop Reporter, an official publication
of the department of agriculture.
According to these figures the losses
among horses in West Virginia for
the year aggregated twenty-three to
the 1000, as compared with seven
teen for the previous year and six
teen, which was an average for the
last ten years. The health condition
of horses for the year is given at
Ininety-three per cent compared with
ninety-Rve per cent for the previous
year. and ninety-six per cent for the
Iten-years average.
The losses among cattle from dis
ease for the year are given as nine
teen to the 1000, compared with
eighteen for the preceding year and
also for the ten-year average. The
health condition of cattle is given as
ninety-two compared with ninety
four for the ten-year average.
The losses by disease among sheep
were smaller than usual; being
twenty-nine to the 1000 last year,
as compared with twenty-nine for
the preceding year and thirty-three
for the last ten years. The loss OF
lambs, however, was 6i5 per thous-
and last year compared with fifty
FIVE for the preceding year.
The mortality among swine last
year was Al per thousand compared
with twenty-five for the preceding
year, and thirty for the last ten
years. The health condition of swine
is given as ninety-four per cent COM
pared with ninety-six per cent the
preceding year and ninety-five per
cent for the last ten years.
While the death fharte among live
stock has increased the farmers have
been largely recompensed by the in
creasing value of other farm
products. The value of wheat In
West Virginia on April l, 1912, is
given as Sl.O5 compared with CSC
the previous year. Other values are
given as follows: Corn see, COM
pared with csc year ago; oats Gao,
compared with SIC a year ago; pc,
Itatoes STAG, compared with 66c;
hay $3.50, compared with $14.6O;
butter 26c, compared with 25c;
eggs lie. the same as year ago;
chickens lie, compared with 11.7c
year ago.
The condition of winter wheat
IlApril i, 1912, is given as SO pei
cent compared with IS per cent the
preceding year and 81 per cent fol
ten years past.
The losses throughout the United
States among hogs caused by disease
during the year 1912 are reported
as aggregating 5,S34, $50 valued al
Is46,675,OOO.

The Prince of Wales, for instance, is
sojourning Just now in Paris, and,
from all accounts, is having a
mighty gloomy time. He drinks only
water with his meals, eschewing the
wine when it is red, rides his horse
slowly when he passes pedestrians,
goes to bed early, and keeps the
Sabbath by attending church regu-
larry. Paris is terribly shocked by
his conduct.
1t was not like this in the older
days, says the Washington Post, but
times change, and monarchs change
with them, or else, like Manuel, late
of Portugal, they have to look for
other jobs. The high rollers among
kings went out of fashion with Leo

ance policy that he could put upon

CHARLESTON, April 20 = A
strike of the union coal miners in
the Kanawha district is now certain
unless the United Mine Workers sign
a two years contract with the coal
operators at the present scale. Ef-
forts to agree upon settlement has
been pending since the first of April.
Thursday the operators gave their
final concession that they would
sign an agreement for two years,
said agreement to be the same as the
one now in force. The miners came
back waving all their demands with
the exception of an unlimited check

on. This the miners say is their
uitimatum, but the operators re-
fused to aecede to the Icheck-oh and
further negotiations were declared
on.
The inability of the union officials
to make any Roadway in its mem
bership during the last year, and
the refusal OF something like 1900
union men to respect the agreement
between the union officials and the
operators, is admitted to have been
a serious blow to the cause of union
ism. There are between 5000 and
1900 union miners in the Kanawha
and New River districts, but only a
small portion OF them are expected
to go out in addition to those now
out.
