NaturaIists Divided in Opinion Con-
corning Structural Makeup
of Monster Fish.

The great devilfish or giant ray,
which abounds in the waters around
Beaufort, S. c., and Captiva Inlet,
Fla, has occasionally been found off
New York and New Jersey. The fur
thest north it has ever been taken
is Block island, where one was
caught last year.
This was II feet wide between the
tips Of the pectoral fins, 7 feet long
from head to base of tail, and
weighed 1855 pounds. This is the
only specimen known to have been
weighed, but there are stories of fish
that are said to have weighed 10000
pounds.

place Of the phones in the plate circuit
of the ampltier, adjust both the fila
ment rheOStats until the signal
strength is maximum.
If it is desired to still further am
plify the incoming signal two ampli-
fer units can be constructed, the out
put of each unit being connected to
the input of the next, and the phones
being placed in the plate circuit of the
last amplifier tube.
In constructing the second unit make
the panel and the Dashboard Of the
same thickness, kind of wood and fin
ish as used for the receiver. The panel
should be four inches wide and six
inches high, the Dashboard three inches
wide and four inches deep to match
up Use the same kinds of binding
posts and tilament rheostat that were
used on the receiver.
Fig. XXXIV is a plan view of the
amplitier unit, and Fig. NNNV is an
elevation of the front view Of the
panel. The diagram of cOnneC. ions is,
of course the same as for the Ttevious-
ly described unit and is shows in Fig.
XXXIII.
These amplifier units can hy used in
conjunction with any radio receiver.
The same units connected electrically
as shown in Fig. NXXIII can be mount
ed to suit the builders own taste.

The following standard apparatus
will have to be purchased at a radio

luency amplification can be used.
However due to the application of
static disturbances, power line Undue
ton, tube noises, etc, three stages
are about the practical limit. If more
than three stages are used the noises
become so loud in comparison with
the signal that it is difficult to hear
the signal.
Since audio frequency amplifying
transformers can be purchased al any
radio shop and the simplest method Of
coupling, the construction of two audio

scribed.
The first unit will be arranged to

FAIL TO AGREE AS TO GIANT RAY

the giant ray In Science, and says that
naturalists who have described it
differ as to whether it has large
spine or sting on its tail. The one
caught at Block island had none, but
there was a wound on the tail where
spine was said to have been torn
off. The late Theodore Gill, dean Of
American ichthyologsts, doubted the
spine, as have other writers, although
some naturallsts picture it with one.

"MOLLY, DEAR!"

SYNOPSIS. - Looking over Big
Muskeg, a seemingly impossible
swamp in the path of the Missa-
tibi railroad, Joe Bostock, builder
of the line, and Wilton Carruthers,
chief of engineers, are considering
the difficulties. A rife shot instant
ly kills Bostock and breaks Car
ruthers' arm. Carruthers tries to
carry the body to a post of the
Hudson's Bay company. where Nc
Donald is the factor. McDonald'S
daughter, Molly, sees Carruthers
struggling in the muskeg and drags
him from the swamp, with his bur
den. Unaccountably, her father
objects to her saving Carruthers.
Weakened by his wound and eXer-
tons, Carruthers is disturbed by
the appearance of Tom BoWyer,
Bostock's business rival and per-
sonal enemy. Bowyer insults Mol
ly, and Carruthers strikes him.
Carruthers declares his love for
Molly. She promises to be his wife.
CarrutherS has to reach the town
of Clayton to attend a meeting at
which Bostock's enemies plan to
wrest control of the Missatibi from
him. Molly goes with him. They
are delayed by storm. Attacked
by his dogs, Carruthers' life is
saved by Molly, who is forced to
kill the animals. The snow, the
snow!' They set out on foot for
Clayton, reaching it with Car
ruthers in an almost dying condi-
ton. He is in time to foil BostOck's
enemies and keep control of the
line for Mrs. Bostock.

Saw CleUeIuRd Bridge
Partially SICept AWdy

z. Rec Guthrey saw the Arkan-
saw" at Cleveland before and after
the suddenly torrential river vented
is rage on n bridge across its cur
rent by tearing out three piers and
the abutments and sweeping down
stream Just at noon Tuesday. The
Arkansas river played similarly with
the bridge in 1915, with the result
that the bridge had to be rebuilt
Guthroy said. The loss OF the bridge
is seriously felt In Cleveland, as the
river loops around the town on three
sides and now those desiring TO
cross must go 'up the river 10 the
town OF Blackburn or down the
river 20 Sand Springs. Cleveland
probably will build at once the new
bridge which II was the intention 10
erect next year, Guthrey said.
