GIRL WALKS AROUND WORLD.
Now on Last Lap of Her Four Year
Journey.

Now on Last Lap of Her Four Year
Journey.
Miss Dora Rodrigues, a nineteen
year-old girl, recently passed through
Toledo, Detroit and other cities of the
middle west on the last lap of a four
year walking trip around the world.
The girl, whose home Is in the Meth
erlands, started out primarily to make
a study of the politics Of the countries
which she has visited. She has walk
ed through Europe, Egypt, Mexico, the
Central American countries and parts
of the United States and Canada.
Her itinerary beyond Detroit includ-
ed Toronto. Montreal and Quebec,
from which city she will sail for home
Aug. 10. She has already covered
more than 10000 miles on foot. Her
money comes largely from the sale Of
postcard pictures of herself and some
scenes she has taken in her travels.
She was In Tifin. o., when the food
washed away the bridges. She imme-
diately left her hotel and started for
Toledo so that she would not be held
in the food stricken city.
Miss Rodrigues tells many interest
ing stories of her trip. She has visit
ed prisons, asylums, hospitals and
poorhouses, and believes she has an
intimate knowledge of the affairs Of
every country she has visited.

X. NJ. Turner OF New York, inventor
Of the original form Of photograph, also

ment that made Detective Burns ia

eight years ago. In his cases In court
Burns has been forced up to the pres
ent to submit stenographic notes, the
authenticity Of which he has had to

Eight Years Work.
For eight years Mr.. Turner worked
on the invention. For over seven and
q half Of them he sought to connect
the diaphragm Of the photograph direct
~ to the needle Of a Photographic
roll, but got no results. Several weeks
ago he began experimenting with an
air cushion between the diaphragm
and the needle instead of a direct con-
nection and at once obtained a. full

Accurate Reproduction.
A man standing Ave feet from the
photograph spoke In a low voice direct
ly into the palm OF his hand, a few
vent the sound travelling in any par
ticular direction.
A series Of bulletins giving the re-
suit of a political meeting was dictat-
ed, and Mr.. Turner burst In at inter
walls with applause and a bit Of whis-
Ting. The monograph In a room 100
feet away repeated accurately the
whole series OF bulletins, the applause
and the whistles.
There's a chance here" said Mr..
Turner, "for newspapers to eliminate
the time loss between big convention
halls and their offices. Typesetters
working from these rolls could pass
the matter almost directly from the
speakers to the printing presses"
In detective work Mr.. Turner said
that the absence OF the self recording
feature had proved an almost insur-
mountable difficulty. 1t had been nee
essary to make the instruments so
that two detectives instead Of one
could listen to what was being re-
peated by the photograph.
In some court cases the d~ictograph's
evidence had been thrown out because
a single detectives transcription of
the record was thought to be hardly
reliable enough for a conviction.

Mr.. Turner. land he can tell each
mans natural voice. The photograph
will identify each man who has

Catches Whispers.
To test this Mr.. Turner asked four
men to among themselves at
some distance from a photograph.
They did so. their conversation at
times falling to a whisper.
In the Photographic reproduction
the voices of each could be distin-
guished, but the whispered
lions became indistinct IL carried on

These whispers, however, Mr.. Tur-
ner said, would be clearly heard by a
person listening to the photograph, but
would not make an impression on the

would be too slight.
