Looking Backward with Apologize
to Bellamy).

Looking backward and noticing
what the prophets of old have prophe-
sled and how much of what they Wis
ioned has come true or noting how
much of the things they said could
not be done have been done has al
ways been a popular sport of those
living in the days that are here and
referred to by the ancients as the
days that are to come
Those of my friends who have not
read Bellamy's Looking Backward,
2000-1sS7." should get copy of the
book and read especially the 11th
chapter, which describes how good
music and entertainment will be fur
nished TO the people in the year 1000
AID. The fact that the book was
written in 1887, when none of the
present wonders of radio were known,
makes the reading all the more inter
esting and makes one marvel at the
inspiration which prompted his vision.
This book is but one of those which
foresaw and portrayed vividly the de-
velopments which were to be brought
about in the years in which we are
now living.
Verne's Twenty Leagues Under the
Sea" developed its greatest interest
during the days of submarine war
fare in the late war. His story
Around the World in Eighty Days"
is of particular interest at this time,
when the United States airmen are
flying around the world by airplane
and when worlds record for a
transcontinental trip in one day was
recently established by Lieut. Maughn.
In these days when reports of
broadcast reception over distances of
over 5000 miles are common the fol-
lowing paragraphs from the May.
1910, issue of Modern Electric Maga-
zine will be of interest, inasmuch as
it is probably the record of the first
successful effort at broadcasting mu-

was held on the afternoon of Febru-
ary "a by DR.. Lee De Forest in the
| transmission of music and operatic
selections by wireless. The operate
selections were sung by Nine. Mari
cite Mazarin. the new star of the
Manhattan Opera Company, whose
hrst American Interpretation of
'Elektra' occasioned much comment by
the music-loving world.
This demonstration holds particu-
lar interest, it is the first success
| full one of its kind ever held, and is
one more step forward to prove that
in the near future we will have
! wireless music
The transmitting station was To-
Gated at the De Forest laboratory,
near the Grand Central station, New
York City. The operate selections
were clearly heard at the Metropoli-
tan Life Building, over mile away,
and at the inventors Newark, n. j.,
station. as well as by some hundr ed
| or more amateurs within a 20-mile
| range.
After the exhibition Nine Mazarin
| and the audience became the guests
| of the Metropolitan Life Insurance
Company and were shown the won
ders of the building and allowed to view
Manhattan from the tower, some 500
| feet above Madison Square. Through
the fog and distance could be seen the
| tower of the station from which the
| music had been transmitted"
Such were the conditions under
| which the present idea of broadca St
| ing found it's inception. From the
| distance of 20 miles the range of
broadcasting stations has increased to
| thousands of miles. From an audi
| ence composed of "some hundred or
| more amateurs" the invisible audience
which listens nightly to the strains
| of broadcast music has increased to
| more than 100000.
What is in store for us 100 or even
| SO years from now would require the
vivid imagination of a Bellamy or a
| Verne.

NEW e. T. PAUL.

"The -Four Horsemen,' r. T. PAUL g
new descriptive march, has been wide
ly acclaimed as his masterpiece. Based
upon the theme as described in the
Book of Revelation, the story evolves
upon the prophetic vision Of st. John
Of the "Four Horsemen," the first
riding a white horse, indicating
"peace, prosperity and happiness"
The second rider, with sword in hand,
mounted on red horse, symbolizing
the reign of war, with its bloodshed
and murder. The third rider on a
black horse signifies depression, sad
ness and sorrow, while finally a pale
horse and rider symbolizes famine, ter
ror, frenzy and death, generally known
as "Death on White Horse.''
The story is set to music that I'D.
mirably illustrates and conveys the
ideas and characteristics of the four
horsemen. 1t is extremely versatile
in nature, ranging from the soft and
sweet melody-interpreting joy and
happiness-to strong and powerful
strains ns-visualizing war and its hor.
rors.
"The Four Horsemen," published
by E. T. PAUL Music Co. of New York
City, N. " gives every promise OF
being E. T. Paull's greatest consrip--
tion to his popular series of descrip-
tive marches, number Of which have
become famous the world over.

Direct From, Heat

To obtain electricity direct from
heat is a dream that is likely at some
time to be realized. At present there
are numerous methods Of obtaining
heat but the power obtainable is very
minute. However, method has been
devised which employs two Insulated
carbon rods heated in an electric fur
mace or oxy-acetylene flame, In a new
way. The two carbons are kept sepa-
rated at one end. but the other ends
are connected through a current meas
uring instrument. When one of the
carbons Ii suddenly displaced cur
rent of several amperes will dow. By
dlsplacing one Of the carbons period
ically an alternating current can be
generated.
When a slight voltage Il applied to-
the carbons the current increases to
more than ten amperes at about 460
degrees Fahrenheit.
These experiments are interesting,
inasmuch AZ such result would
hardly be expected at atmospheric
pressure. The same thing has been
noticed before on much smaller
scale. but In Z high vacuum. Such
seemingly insignincant discoveries
often mark the beginning Of wonderful
dsvsiopmsnts.
