X AT SUNSET *
BY LILLIAN LAUFERTY.

- LOWING the in its golden declining
flushed is the world at the twilight's voice;
Gentle the murmur of dusk as it fingers.
Soft is the rhythm night winds rejoice.
Fading the sun in its wondrous reclining
Deep in the arms OF the far Western skies.
Endless the chorus when dark brings its music
Aftergow song in the hush when light dies
Low is the whisper of night in the grasses:
Endless worlds here at evening rejoice
So age and time grow kind for the knowing
Darkness still pulses with music's sweet voice

"GIVEs A BAD OPINION"
Editor The Georgian.

Edltor Ihe Georgian.
Noticing a letter to The Geor-
gian regarding the inhuman way
the horses and mules are treated
here in Atlanta, would also like
to add my plea for better treat
ment to the poor dumb beasts,
Locating here two years ago
from 6 neighboring city where
the Humane Society was doing
SO much good work, it appeared
SO strange that a city the size of
Atlanta and with so many char
liable people, should be so cruel
ly neglectful Of the dumb ami
mails that are being hourly mis-
treated.
Strangers coming here noticing
the inhuman treatment of its ami
mails. go away with a very bad
opinion OF the people. NJ. B. C..

ROM wireless teIepnony 10
wireless light-such is the
program that certain bold
spirits have proposed for the
next great advance of practical
science.
In wireless telephony a voice
drops out of circumambient space
the voice of a friend hundreds
of miles away, whose syllables
were transformed at the place
where he spoke them into electric
undulations which spread noise
lessly through the ether like cir
cles on a pond. At the point
where you are these passing cleo
trio waves flutter the sensitive
antennae of a receiving instru-
ment and are eventually replaced
again by the vibrations of sound.
If we had wireless light it also
would consist of fluctuations
caught by the antennae of a re-
ceiving instrument, but they would
be shorter than those employed
by telephony, and when rendered
perceptible it would be the eye
instead of the ear that would be
impressed by them.
The man who had this kind of
light in his house would push a
button and instantly the room
would be illuminated by glowing
waves caught out Of the ether,
where before their transforma-
ton they had been. passing in a
flood of invisible pillows.
1t would be far more mystic
rious than the electric lamps of
to-day, for we can see the wires
that supply them with current
and connect them with the dyna-
mo, whereas the waves produc-

tangible connections of any kind

less line of telegraph poles

city, in that village, on yonder
farm, wherever human mind
willed it so, they would be trans
figured at the touch of tiny an
tennae into rays and beams of
glorious light.
The experiments which are con-
tinually being made with new
forms Of vapor lamps, caused to
glow by an electric current, give
another promise for the future in
that they indicate the possibility
that, any day, someone may dis
cover substance which, when
electrically excited, concentrates
its energy of vibration entirely
within the limits of the visible
spectrum.
Such a substance would then
furnish us with the nearest ap-
proach to light without heat"
that we could ever attain, an ap-
proach much nearer than that
made by the glowworm with his
Wanted cold light.

PITIFUL STORY is
TOLD TO POLICE

One OF the most pitlful cases that has
reached the attention Of the local police
In many months was brought to light last
night when Peter Britt. 3S years Of age,
appeared at headquarters. Britt is para =
lyzed and can scarcely speak He told
Captain Emil " Johnson that he had
walked all the way from Tooele City and
that he had not eaten a mouthiul for
forty eight hours.
Britt was injured ten years ago at
Ouray Colo. when he fell DIS feet to the
bottom Of shaft in mine. He suffered
all extreme nervous shock. from which
he never recovered. Many Of his muscles
are useless, When he had told his story
TO Captain johnson, those who had been
listening dug into their pockets and. with
a start given by the captain a collection
Of shining silver pieces was soon In the
hands Of the unfortunate. The case Will
be placed In the hands OF the county
commissioners today

RAID ON SWIMMERS
is MADE BY POLICE
Youngsters Rounded Up and Will Have
to Answer to Juvenile Court for
Their Actions

A boy in swimming, in a regular
swimming hole, expects to find when he
gets out that some one has hidden his
clothes or tied hard water.soaked knots
IN the shirt sleeves and pants legs, for
those things belong and go to make up
the attraction of a swimming hole.
But having policeman camp by the
clothing until one is ready to come out
Of the water, or the brush, and be co-t-
ed off to headquarters is not according
to the game as it used to be played,
Seven boys were SO treated at Ninth
South and the Jordan river Yesterday
afternoon. The encroachments of civi
lization on the old swimming hole are
responsible for interference with their
fun.
The raid Oh the swimmers was made
by Sergeant Ben Seigfus, Chauffeur
George Moore and Patrolman G. G..
Christensen. Several of the lads showed
disposition to desert their clothing
and stink off through the brush. They
were overtaken by Patrolman Carsten-
sen and all were taken to police head
quarters. There were seven, ranging
from IL to l9 years in age. They were
lined up before the captain and lee
tured on the improperly Of their ac-
tlons. Their names and addresses were
taken and will be turned over to the
juvenile officers.

SEEKS WOMAN ON
FORGERY CHARGE
Alleged to Have Signed Name
of Mrs. Reed Smoot to
Check for $475.

An alleged woman forger known by
the name OF Mrs. II A. Coleman Is be-
ing sought by the sheriff. In complaint
issued by the county attorney yesterday
Mrs. Coleman is charged with having
! forged the name OF Mrs. Reed Smoot
wife of the United States senator, To Il
check for $i15 and to have casbed the
paper at the Troy Furniture company's
store on South State street.
The check In question was offered in
payment OF a bill OF goods. including d
ing to S32. The woman explained TO
Manager ], T., karr of the firm that the
check had been sent to her from Wash
ington. d. c., by Mrs. Smoot, After
calling up the bank in Provo ON which
the check Was drawn, Mr.. Kar issued
his personal check TO Mrs. Coleman for

Of the goods had been deducted.
When called by the cashier OF the Con-
tinental Nationa bank concerning the wo-
man and the check. Mr.: karr assured
and had been given by himself TO the wo-
man described She secured the money.
Efforts TO locate her since have proved
futile, The woman claimed Richmond.
Becoming suspicious after the trans
action was over, Mr.. karr consulted with
Pinkerton detectives. Telephone COM
munication with Richmond brought the
information that no Mrs. II. y. Coleman
was known there. A telegraph message
from Mrs. Smoot in Washington brought
a denial that she had ever issued such
a check.
Whether or not the woman has cashed
other checks In the city is not yet
known. hut there is some fear OF It.
