FIRST TELEGRAPH MESSAGE.
u Was "Attention the Universe, BY
Kingdoms Right WHEEL"

A correspondent Of the Youths Com
panion, n son of Alfred Vail, whose
very important share in making the
telegraph practically successful has
not been generally recognized, writes
to say that the very first message to
pass over electrically charged wires
was sent early in 1885, when the new
invention was exhibited first at Nor
rlstown. IN New Jersey, where Vail
lived. and later In New York.
On Jan. II at the Spccdwcll Iron
works in Morristown n party of inter.
ested friends met to see the telegraph
tried
at was in the upper room Of the old
factory building" wrote Vail In his
journal "a wire was hung round the
room two miles In length. At one end
of the wire was battery; at the other
was small frame, on which was
sheet of writing paper The battery
communicated the contents of note
written by one of the ladies present
through the wire by means of spaces
and lines. which Professor Morse trans
lated into English. At that time the
registering machine printed signs that
stood for the ten numerical digits, and
these numbers were translated into
words by means of Il bulky dictionary
compiled by Professor Morse, in which
each word was represented by comb.
nation of figures"
BY Jan. 81 of thuS year, however.
when the invention was shown in New
York, the dots and dashcs were ar
ranged to signify letters. according to
a plan Of Wallis. and the cumbrous die
tionary was discarded.
The frs. mcssage sent that day, ac-
corling to Vail. was, Attention the
universe by kingdoms right whcel!'

You are wont to think of the Bible
as the King James version. with which
you have been familiar from your
childhood. Do you know what the
bibliophile regards as the most Won
derful Bible in the world?
1t is known as the Codex Aureus, or
golden codex. because the lettering is
all laid on the parchment in pure
gold. 1t is of value for totally differ
ent reason, however. 1t Is written in
the Gothic tongue, and notation on
it which bears the date $40 A. ID.

that time. 1t consists of large pOr-
tons of the four gospels and is of the
greatest value to scholars because it
has preserved so much of that long

Scriptures is the one that is known as

Price of Bibles Go Up.

The price of bibles has increased and
Is likely to advance still further because
of the war. Statements issued by relig-
ious publication societies show that the
expense of publishing prayer books,
hyinnals and other religious volumes is
so much larger than heretofore that
BUYERS have been obliged to pay nearly
double prices of last year. This is due
mainly to the advance in the cost OF
paper, ink, leahter and glue.
