RADIO WAVES HALT
PROPELLER BLADE
WhirIing Machinery Appar-
emily Stands Still Under
High-Speed Light.

PITTSBURGH lP.-Radio waves
travelling at nearly the speed of light
now enable man to see what happens
in the blur of whirling machinery.
An airplane propeller blade moving
at top speed, so fast that it is all but
invisible to the eye, appears to stop
and stand still when the new radio
lights are turned on.
If the speed is sufficient, the tip of
the blade may be seen to elongate under
the pull of centrifugal force.
Appear to Stand Still.
When the lights are directed upon
moving belts and gears, those objects
appear to stand still, except for slowly
writhing motions which reveal slipping
and imperfections of action.
The radio waves are produced by
tubes in an apparatus the size of a
suitcase. They flash lights on and off
with changes of speed formerly i'm
possible.
For looking over an airplane pro-
pellor the lights flash on for about
three ten-millionths of a second. The
result is to light the blade once in
revolution, and always in precisely the
same position. To the eye the effect
is that of looking upon stationary
blade.
Flashes Are SynchrOniZed.
The flashes synchronize with the
speed of motion of the object under
observation. They may be geared also
either faster or slower so that pro-
pellor appears to be rotating slowly,
either backward or forward.
The apparatus has existed previously
as immobile laboratory equipment. The
new portable style was developed to en-
able airmen and engineers to take 1t to
their machines for a ready look-see.
Darkness is the only external require
ment.
The device is called the stroboglow
and was developed by three young
Westinghouse engineers, D. D. Knowles,
L. r. Peters and w. E. Babies.

STAGE HORSE BUSY

LONDON (N.AN.A.) One of the
most interesting stars on the London
stage today has been having a busy
time recently Besides appearing with
great success in THE Three Muske-
teerS" at Drury Lane (where he shares
the honors with Dennis King he has
trotted across to Covent Garden and
made his bow in grand opera with
equal effect.
His name is simply Sportsman, and
It expresses his nature, for who, if he
were not of a generous turn of mind,
would submit each day to having his
ribs painted so that he might appear
emaciated as he carries handsome
d'Artagnan on to the stage?
It is less strenuous of course, than
winning the Derby. but when one is
proud of ones sickness, it is a little
hard to be laughed at. Still, there was
some compensation when he recently
took the part of Crane in "Gotter-
dammerung" and bore "Brunhilde"
proudly on the stage like the excellent
horse he is.
Sportsman, who has been on the
stage several years, never suffers from
stage fright and besides appearing in
London has been on a number Of sue
cesSful tours.

car was parked in the driveway close at hand, but it was not until the two men were seated and the car in motion that Thorne voiced his thoughts.
 "A beautiful mansion, Doctor" he said, pointing to the house gleam- ing white through the darkness. "A white sepulchre which in the past twenty-four hours has wit messed a dastardly murder and seen it's owner almost choked to death now, has the last event any bear ing on the first?"
 Ask me something easy groaned McLane as he started the engine. Mrs. Winslow informed me that only she, Miss Chase, the nurse and the servants were in the house when MT. Winslow was taken i'll and bert corroborated her statement"
 Miss Kline waited in the hall until she heard McLane drive away before returning to her room; from there, after attending to several minor matters, she went to Elsa Chase
 Young MT. Winslow isn't in the house." she said, laying her hand on her patients shoulder with a soothing gesture. Lambert claims he left immediately after our talk this afternoon"

 But Miss Kline shook her head. Lambert is going in town for the night. he is waiting now to help me put you to bed
 Let him go," with touch of angry impatience. T intend to sit up and see Jack; you can elevate this chair so that can lie full length on it."
 You won't be comfortable"
 What do I care!" with a quick shrug of her shoulders. Go, Alice, and tell Lambert not to wait any ! longer. Will you be all night with MT. Winslow?"
 oh I'll be back and forth" The nurse paused and looked anxiously at Elsa. T don't like to leave you"
 Alice, you old stupidl" Elsa strengthened up as best she could and kissed the nurse warmly. "Go along and don't worry about me; I have everything I could possibly want right here"
 The servants wing was attached to the big mansion by long cor ridor. Carrying out Mrs. Winslow's ironclad order a dim light was al- ways kept burning there, and in all railways, throughout the night, for if she had immediate need of her maid at any hour, the servant would not be afraid to come through a lighted house.
 It was no suen summons which had brought Lucy, the housemaid, creeping along it that night, how ever. It was far after one in the morning, and nothing but dire ne- cessity had gotten the girl out of a warm bed. With stealthy fingers she unlocked the side entrance and stole around the house, the letter she wished to mail clutched tightly ! in one hand The rural letter box was close to the road and Lucy covered the distance with fleet feet; she had arranged with the milkman, a devoted admirer of hers to take any letter he might see sticking from under the cover of the box.
 One of Mrs Winslow's peculiari- ! ties was having the milk left at the entrance of Oaklands instead of placed outside the kitchen door the noise of the milk wagon com- ing along their driveway had awak- ened her for three mornings consec- utively when they first occupied the mansion and she persuaded her husband to build a small concrete platform and shelter for the milk bottles next the rural mail box. Lucy placed her letter where 1t would be sure to catch the milk mans eye, and then with lighter heart she ran back to the house Instead of sticking to the gravelec path, she cut across the lawn, heac down, hugging her coat up about her throat and across her chest Coming from behind clump oi ievergreens, she caught sight o. a gleam of light on the ground be. fore her and glanced toward tht house.
 Even as Lucy looked the ligh grew brighter, and against the vel low shades, which were pulled dowr on all the windows of the room appeared a shadow; it grew il size, but as it pirouetted this wa. and that, the mortified girl was un able to decide whether it was man or woman.

SYNOPSIS: Seeking to pre- vent the marriage of his adopt ed son, Jack, to Elsa Chase, beautiful crippled girl, guest at his Washington home, Arnold Window, wealthy retired law yer, cnlists the aid of G.

Dr. Kane is found dead on the ground under his bed- rccm window. An autopsy proves he died of poison instead of the fall. The news has dis ecncorting effect on both Elsa and the elder Winslow. Jack asks his father for S10,00O, re- fusing to say what it is for. The elder Winslow makes dis paraging remarks about Elsa, and Jack chokes him.
