1t Is Like Watch Wheels Geared
To Rotating Earth.

1t is very much as If the wheels of
your watch were geared for a moment
to the rotating earth in order to cor
rect their rate, for the whole thing
is done automatically. The pendulum
of a special clock in the Observatory
of Paris-a clock whose running is
kept accurately in accord with the ro-
tation of the earth-periodically closes
a circuit, which instantly actuates the
wireless apparatus in the Eiffel Tow
er and thus sends forth an electric
voice, travelling with a speed which
would suffice to carry it seven times
round the earth in a single second,
and which says in radiotelegraphic Ian
guage, ten a. m" or midnight" as
the case may be.
For hundreds of miles around, in
every direction, this mysterious voice
drops out of space and can be heard
in any telephone attached to a wireless
receiver. Beginning three minutes be.
fore the automatic transmission of the
hour is made, set of warning signals
is sent out, by listening for which the
receiver may be prepared to note with
great accuracy the difference between
the time indicated by his watch and
! that given by the observatory clock
A practised observer can make the
correction to the tenth of a second.
Even homemade wireless receivers

HANGED.

the Evangelical Alliance. representing
all Protestant pastors of st. Louis
against placing a monument to the
memory of Adolphus Busch in one of

meeting attended by IT'S ministers.
The resolution will be sent to city
officials. The protest, 1t was ex-

sonal feeling against Mr.. Busch, but
is based on the fact that since 1t is
impossible to disassociate the brew
ing industry from Mr.. Busch's
memory. the statute in city park

city publicly commended this busi-
