partner in it, Miller Reese Hutchison,
his chief engineer and personal repre-
sentative, corrobOrated it.
Three or four years ago Mr.. Hutchi-
son fell victim to whooping cough.
He lost bis voice temporarily. Mr. Edi-
son, who began his career as a tele-
graph operator. suggested to Mr..
HutchisOn that he learn the Morse code
Mr.. Hutchison did this, and in that
way they began a system of communi-
cation based upon it and operated by
tapping off the dots and dashes with
the fingers. AS they have been insep-
arabic companions they have used this
means Of talking with each other a
great deal and have been able to ex-
change words even in shaking hands.
Mr.. Edison has never allowed his
deafness to bother him. In fact, he has
considered it an asset in his work, as
he has been able to move about in his
busy factory without being distracted
by it's great noises.

destinies Of the new board of which
Secretary Daniels made him the head.
he was embarrassed for the first time
at his loss Of hearing But he took Mr..
Hutchison with him and posted him at
his right and close by his side when
the board met. Mr.. Hutchison tapped
to Mr.. Edison everything that was said.
sometimes verbatim and sometimes
boiling it down into fewer words. By
means Of this Mr.. Edison directed the
boards discussions and even found
time to flash back to Mr.. Hutchison
comments upon what his assistant had
already interpreted to him.
Mr. HutchisOn was able to send Morse
messages to Mr.. Edison at the rate Of
thirty words minute, and as the
speeches were said to have been deliv
cred in more or less deliberate fash
ion he was able to keep up with almost
every sentence of every address.
Mr. Edison and his assistant also
worked the Morse code with their eye
lids. With them a quick wink means
dot and a long wink means a dash,
and they talk to each other in this
way when they wish to convey a mes
sage of private nature when they are
surrounded by other persons and are
too far apart for the finger tapping
method.

NEVADA DIVORCE IGNORED.
Bridgeport Suit May Bring Adjudica-
ton on Validity of Western Decree.


Greenwich, COnn.-In the superior
court at Bridgeport before Judge Case
the many side issues in the divorce pc
tition Of Rudolph Ernest Tiedema nm
against Gertrude Eleanor Tiedemann
of this place were disclosed on a mo-
tion to strike out an alleged amended
reply
The real issue Of the case will show
the attitude of the Connecticut court on
divorces issued in Nevada. Three years
ago Mrs. Tiedemann obtained a divorce
in Nevada and was allowed custody of
the child and alimony. Last March the
husband sued for divorce, alleging de
sertion, paying no attention to the Ne
vada decree. He never paid any of the
alimony. it is alleged. and now seeks
custody of the child
The amended reply is that the Ne
vada divorce is not good because
neither of the parties was a resident.
Decision was reserved.

over 240 new GAME
LAWS ENACTED BY U. S.
Agricultural Department Press
es Campaign Of Protection.

WaShingtOn.-The department of ag-
riculture has inaugurated a vigorous
campaign for the protection Of game
under the federal law and is aiding the
various states in carrying out their
statutes.
More than 24O new game laws were
enacted during 1915-a larger number
than in any previous year except 1911.
FOrty-three states held regular legiS-
lative sessions, and in all Of these
states except Arizona, Georgia and Ne
braska some changes were made in the
statutes protecting game. The largest
number of new game laws passed in
any one state was siXty-One, in North
Carolina, but in California, Connecti
cut, Maine, New Jersey, Oregon, Penn
sylvania and Wisconsin the number
reached ten or more. Several measures
were vetoed. including Il general game
bill in Idaho, the first bill appropriating
the hunting license fund in Pennsylva-
MIA, a bill protecting bears in CalifOr
MIA and three sections of the game bill
in Washington state.
A number Of bills were introduced
for the purpose of harmonizing the
state laws on migratory birds with
the federal regulations. In at least
nine states changes were made which
brought the seasons into substantial
agreement = namely, California, Con-
necticut, Maine, Michigan, New Hamp-
shire, Tennessee and West Virginia.
In Illinois the seasons for all migra-
tory birds except coot and waterfowl
and in Washington for the smaller
shore birds were made to conform with
the regulations under the federal law.
Uniformity was also secured by pro-
visions in the laws of Connecticut.
Maine, New Mexico, North Dakota,
Washington and Wisconsin, prohibit
ing hunting between sunset and sun
rise. On the other hand Delaware
adopted a resolution opposing the mi
gratory bird law. and Ohio and Rhode
Island. which had harmOniZed their
seasons in 1914, changed the seasons
on waterfowl this year.
AS a result Of the decision of the
supreme court of the United States on
Jan. 49, 1914, sustaining the alien
hunting law of Pennsylvania. legisla-
ton prohibiting aliens from hunting or
owning shotguns Or rifles was enacted
in at least four states-MaSsachuSet
New Jersey, North Dakota and West
Virginia-but certain exceptions based
on property qualifications were made
in Massachusetts and New Jersey.
