The Delphic Oracles have paled to
insignificance in comparison with the
"Telepagraph," the marvellous new
Marconi instrument which was exhib-
tied and operated for the first time to.
day at the luncheon given by the Ho-
nolulu Ad- Club in honor of the party
of congressional visitors who arrived
yesterday from the mainland.
Noon was the hour set for the event,
but long before that time the roof
garden of the Alexander Young Hotel
was crowded, and though covers had
been laid for 52S people, more than
200 were turned away because of lack
Of seating capacity.
The Telepagraph, explained Secre-
tary Harry L. Strange, possessed the
wonderful faculty of telling what per.
sons thousands of miles away were
saying and even thinking, More than
that, the unique instrument also had
the power of interpreting the thoughts
of others at any given time in the
future. -. =--a.s-
The stunts" began early. Wallace
r. Harrington, president of the Ad
Club, who presided at the luncheon,
suggested that Mr.. Strange tune his
instrument.
With remarxaD.e facility the Tele-
pagraph then began clicking of some
paragraphs OF. President Wilson's mes.
sage to Congress, when that body re-
assemblies next December.
Mr.. Strange also said that he had
been urgently requested by two young
men of the visiting party to get in
touch with the minds of several young
ladies who came over on the Sierra,
in. order to see whom they really IA.
yored. Il shall mention no names,"
he continued, for l should dislike to
create any i'll feeling between Repre-.

The stunts" at the luncheon were
begun when President Harrington
asked Secretary Strange to read the
minutes of the last meeting. The sec,
retary appeared with a monumental
pile Of manuscript containing 1862
sheets of paper. He was put in an
embarrassing position, he ayerred, be
