WORK OF The TELEPHONE.
lts Magic Has Enabled Us to Snap Our
Fingers at Space.


Just how modern is the essential and
ubiquitous telephone-now connecting
over half million houses aud offices
IN New York city-there is "a casual
line In "Pinafore" which serves to in
dicate. When the kindly chorus is
condoling with Ralph Rackstraw on
his separa ton from his Josephine It
chants these words to picture the ter
ror Of his lot:
'No telephone connects with his duu-
geon cell"
The line falls fat today. But Pima
fore" was produced for the first time
in 1878, and in 1876 the Bell patents
for the first practical telephone were
issued. Thus when the words were
written they related to a new and
startling invention that was the talk
Of the day, and the Gilbertian line was
really a gay, topical Jest.
It is a safe guess, however, that very
few OF the people who laughed at
.'Pinafore" in the seventies fOresaw
what the telephone would really prove
to be- The years Of the telephone are
few. But already it has transformed
business method and social intercourse.
The railroads. the fast trains, the tele-
graph, wireless, the automobile, all
helped to make the nineteenth century
a century Of acceleration.
The telephone worked more real
magic than all the rest together. The
discovery Of astral bodies would hau-
" have done more to multiply human
effectiveness and enable us to snap
our fingers at space.-New York Trlb-

AN AGE OF MIRACLES

The miracles of the past, which
many are inclined to doubt, are be-
ing far surpassed by the wonders of
the present. What, for instance,
would Moses and the lsraelities who
substituted on mama, have thought
Of the feat of Russian Chemist in
forming hens egg from the atmos-
phefe? What would Naaman, who
was healed of leprosy, have thought
of the curing of those modern forms
OF leprOSV, cancer and tuberculosis,
BY means Of that marvel of marvels,
radium, which constantly gives out
light and heat without diminishing
its initial supply? Joshua, who per-
formed some prodigious feats Of
valor, would, doubtless, have been
amazed if told that the time would
come when people would fly through
the air, as d crew of twenty eight
men did the other day in one of the
German fleet of air-ships, flying a
distance OF sixteen hundred miles in
tWenty-nine hours. Or he would
have been astounded to learn that
it would be possible for individuals
to communicate with one another to
distance of over four thousand
miles BY flashing messages through
the air. Doubtless too, he would
have turned pale at some of the
possibilities of our modern appliances
of warfare, such as the battlesh;ps
from whose sides in a single dis
charge. tons Of steel and iron would
belch forth to distance of from
twelve to sixteen miles.
AS for the visions which many (f
the ancient prophets were permitted
to behold; what would they have
thought OF the realistic arrangements
of tie synchronized cinematograph
monograph? Scenes and incidents
are Being recorded which, in after
years, will be reproduced so vivldly
that the originals could not be more
impressive. They will be more real
than dreams or visions.
But, those prophets Of, ancient
times clearly foreto'd the conditions
of the present. Daniel stated that
in the time of the end: many shall
run to and fro, and knowledge shall
be Increased. '-Daniel 1914. Also,
the Prophet Nahum referring to
the day Of his preparation, de-
clares that the Chariots (automo-
bles, trolley cars, and railway trains)
shall b. with flaming torches (head-
lights, searchli hts, etc., and
shall jostle enc against another in
the broadwavs: they shall seem like
torches, they shall run like the light
nings. ''-Nahum 2:3, 4. Surely
the preparations for Messiah S
kingdom are progressing rapidly. IL

WOMAN ASSISTED IN
MURDER OF HUSBAND
Mrs. Bessie j. Wakefield Of
Bristol, Conn.,, Found Gull
ty in First Degree.

NEW HAVEN, Oct. 3l.-Mrs. Bessie
j. Wakefield, of Bristol, mother of three
little children, was found guilty today
of murder in the first degree for her
part in the killing Of her husband, Will
liam, last June. al
No woman has been hanged in this
state since 1856.
Evidence in the trial showed that
Mrs Wakefield and james Plew, con-
spired to get rid of Wakefield. While
Mrs. Wakefield took her children out
for walk, Plew partly drugged her
husband, took him out for walk and
then shot him to death. A knife was
driven into the body and a rope placed
around the neck to give the appearance
of suicide.
Mrs. Wakefield then reported to the
police that her husband was missing
and she feared that he had ended his
life. An investigation resulted In the
arrest of the couple and both confessed.
Plew is descendant Of the Jewkes
family, which has produced more than
1900 detectives. He pleaded guilty to
homicide under an ancient statute,
which permits the court to fix the de-
gree Of guilt.
1t is probable that Mrs Wakefield
and Plew will be sentenced together.
