FIRE At WHITE MILLS
Heroic Work of Firemen Save Other
Buildings From Burning at Early
Fire Monday Morning.

A vacant house belonging to the
Dorfiinger's, White Mills, was burned
about l o'clock Monday morning.
The loss is complete there being no
insurance carried upon the dwelling.
The White Mills boys quickly an
swered the fire alarm and within a
few minutes afterwards had streams
of water upon the burning building.
By heroic work upon their part they
succeeded in not only saving the big
Dorfiinger establishment from de-
struction, but also protected several
adjacent houses from being burned.
The wind was blowing in the diree-
ton of the factory but the boys, by
hard work, succeeded in subduing the
flames. This is demonstrated by the
fact that only the roof was burned
off, the four sides of the building re-
naming intact. The kitchen, at the
rear of the house, was destroyed.
The snow on the roofs of the
houses adjacent to the fire, without
a doubt, was a good preventative
against the fire. Large sparks were
carried some distance from the fire,
but no other fire was started by
their dropping upon buildings.
Thomas Smith was the hero of the
flre. lie was nedu nOZZleHldn On
Engine No. 2 and evidently mis-
judged the distance of the fire. He
burned his nose.
The building had been vacated
since last Thursday by Charles
Smith, who moved to Indian Orchard
Mr.. Smith said he left the house
clean, and could not account for the
fire. AS no one occupied the dwell
ing and it's taking fire at so early an
hour in the morning leads the people
of White Mills to believe that the fire
was of an incendiary origin. The
building was erected about AZ years
ago

No License For II, H. Hoyle.

The application of Horace H.
Hoyle for a hotel license in Dyberry
was heard before the court on Tues
day morning. There were no re-
monstrances. H. H. Hoyle, Mr.. Full
kerson and w. B. Foster were the
witnesses. Mr.. Hoyle testified that
he intended to remodel the place and
fix it up generally for the accommo-
dation of summer boarders. The
Court did not grant the license be-
cause it was thought not necessary
at the present time but stated that
when Mr.. Hoyle had established a
business in summer boarders and the
necessity had arisen then application
for license could be made.

HERTZ THE REAL DlsC0VERER
Marconl Made Practical sneoess OF
the Wireless, but Was Not Flrss
I'm the Field.

The principle Of wireless tslegraphy
IL easily comprehended. AS IL known
light and heat move In waves whose
lengths can Do measured. Thus, the
sun gives out In every direction light
In q series Of undulating waves which
may not only be measured, but can be
detected, pe!arized, and SO on. Some
idea Of this may be- gained from
the wellknown fact that when stone
ia thrown into a smooth pool Of wa
ter a series or circular waves extends
In all directions. II any floating OBJ
tect comes within these waves they
are oRcillated.
Il was the lamented Prof. Hertz
who discovered that electricity. like
light and heat. also moves IN waves
which may be measured Just precise
" how these waves pass through the
atmosphere Il not wholly understood,
but 1t IL believed that they have some
relation TO ether, which In omnipres-
emit and which is believed to constitute
all matter under different negative
electrical conditions II wireless tel
egrapny q series or h@TtSlAn waves
are set up By powerful electrical dyna-
mos or batteries, and these are dis
charged from the top OF high mast
or pole. These waves extend In all
directions, and, unless their force is
expended by distance they excite GER
tain effects In the receiver Of wireless
telegraph instruments within the zone.
Just az the waves disturb chips on q
pool Messages are sent and received
somewhat On the plan of ordinary
Morse code By wires, IN that electrical
impulses are regulated 30 as to spell
words according TO code.
To Marconi belongs the credit OF
making . practical success OF the dis
coveries Of others, but to Hertz be-
longs the credit OF making the sys-
tenn possible.
