WIRELESS MUSIC USED FOR A DANCE

10 the reporter. Doctor Armstrong of
Columbia has been doing research
work along these lines for many years,
and he has ut last turned out Il device
that will multiply sound 500 TO 1000
times. The De Forest amplifer multi
piled sounds II to 1S times. The prin-
ciple Is somewhat the same, the diff
ference being that the Armstrong in
strument has complex repeating nc
ton, while the De Forest instrument
has single repeating action.
Together, the instruments make It
simple to telephone by wireless, and
there's no reason why New Workers
should not be telephoning to Chicago
regularly except that the instruments
have not yet been put to commercial
use. That is because Of the many
legal fights that are taking place over
the fundamental radio patents, and be-
cause Of the field being practically tied
up at the present time by the MarcOni
company. But there's nothing to pre-
vent amateurs from using these in
struments.
1T would be just as easy to trans
NIT the music of an entire opera from
the Metropolitan opera house as to
transmit this phonograph music that
is being played tonight. It would only
be necessary to have the sending APP
paratus within range of the voices in
the Metropolitan. With the ampli-
fers now being used the music could
be transmitted about 200 miles"
Mr.. Cooley said that the ampifier
perfected by Doctor Armstrong re-
sembled the headlight Of an automO-
bile Instead of the light filament
there are two electrodes. There is
n vacuum in the bulb, and in an in
light, and the weak sound
enters on one electrode. while the pow
erful sound issues from the other.

This afternoon, everything being
quiet, I invited the neighboring sec
ton commander to come and spend a
little time with me. In the trenches
we rarely have anything to drink but
wine and coffee, and, by the way of
special feast, l decided to make some
chocolate. So / sent for canteen of
water and poured some of the pre-
cious fluid into my pan and devoutly
emptied in the chocolate and sugar.
1t was simmering gently on my braz-
Ter, and l was just on the point Of
adding condensed milk, when someone
called me from the outside. It was
my orderly coming to see if l needed
anything. l invited him to join us,
but at the precise moment the stupid
battery Of a n began to spit its six
shells at us. Two burst so near that
my faithful 'tampOn' stumbled in
fright and fell headlong, taking with
him brazier, saucepan and chocolate
our chocolate so nearly ready, which
our eyes were drinking so hungrily.
The poor chap was most unhappy, so
l laughed; but l must confess my
laugh was bit sickly. At that mo-
ment l detested the Germans worse
than ever.-From a French Lieuten-
ants Diary in the Atlantic.

DOUBLE AMpLIFIERS ARE USED
Inventions of Doctor Armstrong Of
Columbia University and Lee de
Forest Make Experiment at
. Morristown, N. j., Success.

New NOrk.-What was declared Il
be the worlds first wireless dance was
held recently at Morristown, n. j., al
the home of Theodore l.. Gaty. His
two sons-John +. and Theodore f.
Gaty, Jr., the latter home from Cornell
| for the hOlidays-gOt up dance and
throughout the evening the seven or
eight couples who had been invited
danced to music that was played on a
phonograph in Highbridge, ut the
northern end Of Manhattan, about 40
miles away from MOrristOwn by air
line.
Mr.. Gaty and his sons are enthusias-
tic amateurs in the science of radio
telephony and telegraph. A friend, +.
H. Cooley of MOntclair, who is a radio
engineer, made use Of the Lee de For
est audiOn detectOr and the sound
amplifier invented by DIR. Edwin H..
Armstrong of Columbia, the inven-
tions which made transcOntinental tel
ephony possible, as well as a wire
less telephone message to Honolulu.
Mr.. Cooley, who IS only twenty-seven
years old, adapted the two devices %
amateur use and attached them to a
monograph horn in the Gaty home.
Taken by Amateur Receiver.
The phonOgraph that furnished the
dance music was played in the High
bridge plant of the De Forrest Radio
Telephone and Telegraph company,
and the musical sound waves were re-
celved by the amateur receiver over
Mr.. Gaty's house.
When the faint sounds, which, COM
ing from the receiver, could scarcely
be detected by the ear, passed through
the combined sound amplifers and
then through the megaphOne they
could be heard all over the house.
To show how clearly the sound was
transmitted, Mr.. Gaty telephoned to
the De Forest company's office at High
bridge and the operator of the phonO-
graph listened to the ground wire tele-
phone. The music when it got back to
him by this route, he said was even
louder than the original sounds from
the phonograph. A New York Times
reporter called up Mr.. Gaty's house
and the megaphone was placed near
the receiver at that end. The music,
about 40 miles through air
and then nearly the same distance by
ground wires, could be heard distinct
ly. The phonograph was telling how
she could ''yacki hacki wick wacki |
woo" in Honolulu.
Mr.. Gaty was enthusiastic. He said
that the operator in the De Forest
building announced the number of
each record, its name, and so forth
when he was about to put it on the
and that the spoken an
could be heard in every
corner Of the Gaty house. Mr.. Cooley,
1t his home in Montclair, had not
.aken the trouble to ask If the expert
nent was successful. He took it as
natter of fact that it should be.
All Very Simple.
"It's very SIMPLE" Mr.. Cooley said

other oNldlzing Agents Have Been
Proved open 10 Some Form Of OBJ.
lection, but This Has Been
Proved Satisfactory.

Among the branches Of surgery TO
which the exigences OF the European
war have acted as a sharp stimulus
may be mentioned the treatment Of in
fected wounds. The proportion Of pa-
! tlents who reach the military hospitals
with their Injuries thus aggravated is
said 20 be so large as 10 have given
great importance 10 the subject Of
antlsepucs since obviously the perfect
aseptlc treatment which most cases
can enjoy In ordinary hospitals In time
of peace Is out OF the question for the
majority Of battle wounds.
Many antseptlcs, unfortunately
though excellent germicides, are so
toxic that there is danger OF their
harmlng the vitality Of the tissues sur
rounding the wound For this reason
hydrogen peroxide Is said 10 be admir-
able, since II Is germlcdal without be-
ing In any way injurious to healthy
cells. However, Il Is not adequate In
those cases, so common In warfare,
where there Is Il serious amount of sup
puratlOn. II Is almost Instantly decom-
posed, not only by pus, but by blood
and most Of the other liquids Of the
body tissues, so that the amount Of
nascent oxygen released Is insufficient
for the requirements Of a serious
wound
The search for an oxldlzlng agent
not open to this objection according
TO a writer In the Scientific American,
led 10 the trial of ozone, either dis.
solved In water and used In copious ir.
rigations or in a gaseous state, mixed
with ordinary diatomic oxygen. The
latter style Of treatment Is especially
advantageous in the case Of wounds
which are slow In forming a scab. since
the most spacious bandages often have
tendency TO rub Off the fresh scar
tissue.
This difficulty Is avoided in the |
process in question by surrounding the .
wound with a hcrmeucally sealed .
shell, into which can be passed the .
gaseous current. This method pos. /
sesses the extraordinary advantage Of
leaving the wound open to the bene-
ficial action Of the solar radlations as
well. Then, too, the total exclusion
Of the ordinary air from the tissue un-
der treatment makes impossible the
formation Of nitrogen compounds,
which might prove decidedly irritant
The other mode of application,
through the use of ozonized water, has
been found particularly satisfactory
for large shattered wounds, where the
tissues have been directly invaded by
septic substances.

had high cheek bones, black hair and

standing at the curb saw the man and
noted his moccasined feet. "By

1t is not necessarily surprising, but

present schOolteachers predominant
among the popular writer's of today.
Among those who have deserted their
former work for the more congenial
and profitable work of writing are
James Lane Allen, who was public
school teacher and later a professor
of Latin in small college. Parker
Fillmore was a government teacher in
the Philippines. Frances HOdgson
Burnett was country school teacher
ON a small salary when she began
writing stories, and rumor has it that
the stamps with which her first con-

orally for her writing and gave her a
chance to get before the public.

Russian weapons was the great battle
ak. There were many different types
of these, but all were alike in having
queerly shaped, broad blades, often of

usually projected in fantastic curve
above the haft, while the lower end
bent toward the pole, to which it was
attached by lashing of wire.

Straphangers in the street cars lurch
forward when the car stops and back
ward when It starts. It's incOnvenlent,
especially If 20O-pounder hits you.
