Story of the Wireless.


Marconi, in his wireless work, util-
lied the discoveries of eminent pre-
decessors. In 1916 James Clark Max
well, British mathmetician, predicted,
and in 1887 Hartz, a German physi-
cist, produced-waves in the ether; but
it was Marconi who, in 1896, COM
menced to put Hertz laboratory expert
ments into practical use.
In 1899 wireless telegraphy was es-
tablished by Marconi across the Eng
lish channel between England and
France. By 1901 he had established
his system land transmitted signals
across the Atlantic between St. Johns,
Newfoundland, and Poldhu, Cornwall,
a distance of 2,100 miles. The world
stood almost breathless before this
achievement.
In 1902 he gave the late car Of
Russia and the king of Italy at Kron-
stadt wireless kilograms received
from Cornwall on board the Italian
cruiser Carlo Alberta during her
voyage from England to Russia and in
Kronstadt harbor; and in the same
year on board the Carlo Alberto he re-
ceived at Gibraltar and in various
parts of the Mediterranean wireless
kilograms transmitted between Cape
Breton and England, and formal mes
sages were transmitted for the COVER
nor general Of Canada, and from Mar
conf to the king Of Italy.
A few weeks later, the wireless be-
ing established between Cape Cod,
Massachusetts, and Cornwall, a mes
sage was sent by it from the president
of the United States to the king of
Great Britain. ....
In 1904 on board the R. M. S. Cam
pania, he inaugurated the first ocean
daily newspaper, the "Cunard Daily
Bulletin
In 1907 he established a trans-At-
lantic public service between America
and Great Britain. In 1909 he received
the Nobel prize for physics. His in
ventions include directive system of
wireless telegraphy and new pers:s-
tent wave system Of wireless teleg-
raphy.
Winnipeggers, listening this week
by wireless to concerts given in Chi
|cago, and hearing the voices of speak
ers, singers and instruments, very
plainly, arc further reminded of the
things made possible by Marconi, one
of the links in the chain of inventors
uncovering the mysteries of the world.
