A WIRELESS STORY.
Call From the Pacific That Was Heard
In the Gulf of Mexico.

In the Gulf Of Mexico.
1t was "eight bells" on a ship lying
at anchor down In the gulf of Mexico.
The men had retired for the night to
their hunks and hammocks, and the
wireless operator, alone In his watch
fulness, was listening in at the head
phones.
Suddenly. out Of the pitchy darkness
Of the sea, message that curdled the
blood in his veins leaped down the an
tenna and hummed Its fearful contents,

minutes later, In response to the GUS
tomary reply, "What is your position"
the answer flashed back, "125 degrees
27 minutes 81 seconds west, At degrees
80 minutes 10 seconds north.
That meant that out on the Pacific
ocean 40 miles west of Seattle, Wash.
1850 miles away-a vessel was cali
ing for help.
The call of the Pacific! The operator
hardly believed 1t. With tremulous
fingers he repeated the call to the sta
tion nearest to the vessel in distress.
But already the wireless watchers
along the western coast had caught
the message, and relief was on It's way.
Clear across the entire North American
continent, over land and sea and noun

Water Color.
A very curious history is that of
Burne-Jones' favorite picture, Love
Among the Ruins" The original pic
ture was In water color and was sent
to Paris by a firm of art publishers for
reproduction and IN that city forward
ed to their Photographic studios In the
suburbs The picture unhappiIy pre-
ceded the letter of instructions regard
ing It warning the photographer of the
medium In which 1t was painted, SO
that Immediately on Its arrival 1t was
brushed over with white of egg to
bring out the colors for photographing
I'm excellent procedure In the case of
oil pictures. harmless and very effica-
cious.
But, as to the Burne-Jones picture,
Love was very soon among his own
ruins. for every swish Of the brush
brought off the final touches and left
mere smeared ground. Sir Edward
Burne-Jones was heartbroken at the
loss Of work on which his reputation,
he considered, would In great measure
rest and on which he had spent many
months Of patient toll and the very
perfection of his execution in the reali-
zation Of one of the most poetic con-
ceptions that had sprung from his fan
ciful imaapation.
Love Ainong the Ruins" was paint
ed during the years 1903. In October,
1903, 1t was destroyed, and by the fol-
lowing year the oil version was fin
ished but was scarcely a consolation
to the artist for the loss of his first
and more spontaneous work.
