Western Union to Pay
100000 Moving Bill

A bill for 100000 just for moving
across the street sounds like profteer-
ing. But 1t is not. 1t is the cost es-
tlmated by the Western Union Tele-
graph Company for moving from its
offices on Monument Circle and the
east side Of N. Meridian ST., across the
street to the Guaranty building on
the west side of Meridian and Install
ing equipment.
Within a few days the telegraph
company will begin the elaborate proc
ess Of installation required before
actual moving begins. Between
twenty-five and fifty men will be en-
ployed in this work. The company
plans to be in its new quarters by
July or a short time later. according
to c. W. Steinhauer, head of the
traffic department.
Because practically all the equip
ment will be of the latest type, NOV
ing will not affect service.

YOUTH A SUICIDE

Melvin Cleatus Buhrman,. about "a
years old, of Foxville, this county, shot
and instantly killed himself sometime
between 1 o'clock Friday afternoon
and Sunday morning Buhrman's
body was found by his father, Elmer
Buhrman, Sunday morning about 8
o'clock. He had shot himself through
the chest with 20-gauge shotgun and
death was instantaneous, according to
the report of DR.. E. c. Kefauver, of
IThurmont, who was summoned.
Buhrman and his wife had separa-
ted about three weeks ago and since
time he had been living alone. 1t is
thought that worry over his domestic
affairs caused him to end his life.
Buhrman's nearest neighbor was his
father, who lived only about 500 feet
distant from him but who failed to
hear the shot which ended the sons
life. He was accustomed to go to his
fathers house each day for water and
when he failed to appear on Saturday
or Sunday morning the father became
alarmed and made the investigation
which resulted in the finding of the
dead body.
- Buhrman had apparently placed the
stock of the gun against the wall, the
against his chest and touched
this trigger with short stick which
was found beside the body. There is
no way of telling the exact time the
act was committed but he was last
seen alive about l o'clock Friday af-
ternoon.
Upon discovery of the body Justice
r. E. Cadow and DR.. E. C. Kefauver,
of Thurmont, were summoned. JUS
tice Cadow deemed an inquest unnec-
essary.
He is survived by his wife, two
small children, his father, four broth
ers and one sister. Funeral services
were held Tuesday from the home at
10 o'clock; interment at the Foxville
cemetery, Elders L. J. Flohr and J. S.
officiating. M. L. Creager

The constant reception Of WIS
signals in England makes 1t unneccs-
sary for the Radio Corporation-West est
inghouse broadcasting station to run
a transatlantic test. This fact be-
CAME known when Geoffrey E..

and who stated that the signal
strength Of WIZ Is SO strong phono-
graph records can be made Of 1t in
the British Isles. Mr.. Durveen is a
most enthusiastic radio. telephonist.
the British Isles by a unique method.
He took his fishing rod and a receiv-
ing set In his sedan and toured the
British Isles. When he came to a
large tree he would cast his line over
it and then reel in his line. until
the eight-ounce lead would give him
a tight line. He then attached his
copper wire to the stretched fishing
line. drove his car several hundred
yards and tuned in his radio appa-
ratus to catch the music in the sky
broadcast from America.
Upon his return to ENGLAND Mr.
Duveen will try to arrange q trans
atlantic test for 2LO. the broadcast
ing station in London. The test Will
probably be run in the early part of
March at l am. or pm, eastern
standard time, WIZ standing by three
nights during this period in order to
give the American amateurs an op-
portunity to hear the first broadcast
