ATLANTIC LINE..S' WIRELESS.
The First Messages Are Sent Just Five
 Minutes After Sailing.

The First Messages Are Sent Just Five
 Minutes After Sailing.
 The first regular wireless message is sent out as the steamer slowly backs from her pier. It is timed just five minutes after sailing The sharp crack of the sending apparatus is usually drowned by the roar of the whistle calling for a clear passage in mid stream. All transatlantic steamers send to the wireless station at Sea Gate, while the coastwise steamers call up the station on top of one of the skyscrapers on lower Broadway.
 This is merely formal message, but no wireless log would be complete without it, writes Francis Arnold Col Iins in St. Nicholas. This first mes sage is known as the ''T. R." No one seems to know just why. The wireless station replies as briefly as possible, and the wireless operator shuts off.
 Business soon picks up. Before the passengers are through waving fare wells some one has usually remember ed a forgotten errand ashore or decid- ed to send wireless (aerogram is the word), aid visitors begin to look up the wireless station. It is usually a detached house on the uppermOst or sun deck, just large enough for the mysterious looking apparatus and a bunk or two. Before the voyage is over most of the passengers will have become familiar with the station, for 1t is after all about the most interest ing place aboard.
 If no messages are filed for sending the operator picks up the shore sta ton and clicks off the name of his ship-as, for instance, "Atlantas-nil here," meaning nothing here" Should the operator have any mes- sages to file he will add the number for example, "Atlantas B." The re- ceiving station picks this up and re- plies quickly. If 1t has no message to send 1t will reply: 70. K. Nil here" Should there be any messages to de- liver it will reply, 70. K. G." (GO ahead.)
 All the way down the harbor the great ship is in constant communica ton, sending and receiving belated questions and answers. The passen- gers, who have been calling their fare wells from the ships side as the wa ters widen, are merely continuing their conversations with the shores now rapidly slipping past. Your message meanwhile will be delivered almost anywhere in the United States within an hour and in nearby cities in much less time.

:. Lost Books That Caused Tragedies -.

not, for obvious reasons, have been
possible for many years after the
poets death; yet as succeeding gen
erations have been brought face to
face with the peculiarly complex
genius of Byron, with its lofty moods
and it's many dark places, they have
felt need of the light which only the
records written by a vanished hand
could have supplied.
Since the death of Auguste Strind-
berg, the famous Swedish novelist
and dramatist-who, by the way, had
much in common with Byron-many
of his works have been translated
into the English language and are
already the center Of heated contro-
versy in literary circles. It is pos
sible, therefore, that the powerful, if
somewhat misanthropical, writings
Of this Swedish recluse may be read
and treasured by generations to come
But all his works will not go down
to posterity, for II is said that in a
sudden fit of dependency Strindberg
himself destroyed a number of his
manuscripts, which, through lack Of
time or inclination, he never wrote
again.

it preyed upon his mind to such an
extent as to cause much temporary
mental alteration.
One Of the great losses to literature
was the burning of six books of
Sponsors "Faery Queen" which the
poet is said to have left in his house
in County Tyrone, Ireland. A re-
bellion broke out, and the place was
burned; and not only did the poets
youngest child perish in the flames,
but, it is said, also about as much
Of the great poem as we possess at
present.
All lovers Of Byron are aware that
this erratic genius found time in his
short, adventurous life to write his
memoirs, and that on his death these
passed into the hands Of his friend,
Thomas Moore, who, exercising a dis
erection committed to him, promptly
consigned the manuscript to the
flames.

step, and it is quite likely that the

How Did You Meet Herr"


How did you come to meet her,
anyhow" Burke inquired. He still
held his big voice to a softer modula-
tion than 10 which it was habituated.
Yet the disdain of the girl seemed
only to increase momently. She
showed plainly that she regarded this
brass buttoned official as one unbear-
ably inaolent in his demeanor toward
her. Nevertheless. she condescended
TO reply, with an eXaggeration Of the
aristocratic drawl to indicate her dis
pleasure.

father the owner Of the Emporium"
oh, yes. I've heard Of hts father
and Of him, too" Burke admitted

But the girl relaxed not n whit in
her attitude OF offense.
Then" she went on severely, you
must see at once that you are entirely
mistaken in this matter" Her blue
eyes widened further as she stared
accuslngly at the Inspector, who be-
trayed evidences of perplexity. and
hesitated for an answer. Then, the

Yet his duty required that he should
continue his questioning He found
himself, in fact, between the devil and
the deep sea-though this particular
devil appeared rather as an angel Of

Now, at his somewhat feeble remark
in reply to her query, the childish face
grew as hard as its curving contours
would permit
"Sir!" she cried Indignantly. Her
