NEW YORK. nSv. 29.—The con- ductor In charge of the Lackawanna Limited that left Hoboken for Buf falo yesterday morning at 10 15 o'clock was taken ill while his train was running 50 miles an hour, CO miles thiB side of Scranton. Pa. Or dinarily a delay for ( hanging con ductore would have been necessary— either a stop this side of Scranton while a telegram vas sent ahead ask ing for a reljef conductor or elst a wait in Scranton while the relief con ductor was being found. And every delay of a train that is scheduled to run from Hoboken to Buffalo In nine hours and forty-three minutes is con sidered a serious matter But there was no delay. The train was equipped for wireless telegraph service; it is the only train s> equipped in the world. The conductor notified the wireless operator, and, while the train was rushing 50 miles an hour and although mountains ro*«e high between him and Scranton, the operator sent a message to the rail road superintendent there. When the train pulled into Scranton a little more than half an hour later, a relief conductor stepped aboard, grip In hand and ready to take charge. Th • other conductor stepped off and sought a physician Gets Another Coach. The train was crowded w hen it left Hoboken yesterday morning and 40 miles this side of Scranton the con ductor saw that he needed another coach He did not have to stop »o send a message by telegraph, and r.o delay was necessary in Scranton while the needed coach was brim; brought up from the yards The wire less operator was notified, a wireless message W'as sent ahead to Scran ton. and by the time the train reached that station the extra < ar was watt lag near by for a quick coupling. The first wireless experiments w-re made on the limited which left Iasi Friday, and yesterday’s was the sec ond and more successful. Scranton and Binghamton are 60 miles apart, but while, the train was between the two stations it was always in commu nication by wireless with one or the other of them. Experimenter* Jubilant. When Mr. Foley and Mr Sarnoff stepped off the train in Hoboken la*t night, they were Jubilant “In my opinion,’ said Mr, Fbl-iv, “the wireless will revolutionize rail roading We won t do the revolution ising this week, maybe not th-s month, but the time is coming, and it Is not far distant, when the wireless telegraph on trains will make the safety and convenience of railroad traveling 100 per cent greater than they are to-day. And as a preventive of accidents I think the wireless will prove of the greatest value. “In the Hudson tubes and sub way, for example, the train dis patcher sits in his room and by the flashing 1 of lights knows exactly where every train is. If two trains get dan gerously close together, he can send a signal that will almost Instantly stop one or both of them I believe that the same thing can bo done on rail roads with the wireless. The dis patcher can sit in front of a board on which the location of each train on the line will be shown by wireless tel egraph. If he sees trains getting *oo close together for safety, he ('an send a wireless message that will stop one of them anywhere -out in the coun try miles from a telegraph station. Doubtful Points Cleared. ■ But of course all this is in the future. At present we are only ex perimenting. As far as they have gone, however, the experiments justi fy the predictions Qur first doubt, when we contemplated installing »h^ wireless, was about using the rails for grounding the electric current. You know there is a ground wire at every wireless station, hut you can’t have one from a moving train. So we trl-»d sending our ground current to the rails when we made or.r first experi mental trip last Friday. The scheme worked well and the first difficulty was overcome. “And another problem was settled at the same time, that of supplying the electric current for the messages. We simply used the dynamos already in the train for lighting purposes. We had feared that they would not fur nish sufficient current for the wire less or, if they did. that using it would weaken the lights. But we used all the electricity we needed and the lights were not perceptibly dimmed. I think it is certain that we can use the rails for ground wires and the ordinary lighting dynamos for our current. This was demonstrated on our first trip. “Tuning” a Problem. “Our next problem, the one wo at tacked to-day, is to get out instru ment on the train in tune with those in the stations at Scranton and Binghamton. You see, on account of the tunnels and low’ bridges over the tracks we can not have a high aerial on the train. But high (MTlftll are necessary if messages are to be sent any great dist ance, so we have built them high at the stations and are trying to work them with low aerial on the train. This makes the transmitting of messages between the train and the stations more dif ficult. The instruments have to be adjusted until they are in tune, but I believe this difficulty can be over come. "To-day w«‘ sent and received mes sages so easily that we are convinced that the only thing required to perfect the service is an adjustment of the Instruments until they are In tune. We shall make an experimental trip every other day until this adjustment is satisfactory. Then the wireless service on the Lackawanna Limited will become a regular thing.” The wireless apparatus has besn Installed in the forward part of the train. The aerial consists of a wire rectangle over each of four cars sup ported at each car corner by a stanchion two feet high In the rear end of the second car from the front an operator’s room has been built, so that the receiving and sending in struments are under the center of the aerial.

Lummis, that will be given to the school children that they may not mispronounce the name of their city. The Southwest Museum furnishes the following authoritative key to the pronounciation of Los Angeles: "The O’ in ‘Los’ is long. The word should be pronounced to rhyme with ‘Dose.’ "The ‘A’ of 'Angeles* is a Htth* broader than the English Ann, but not so broad as "Ahn/ “The ‘G’ is hard. There is no ‘Jelly’ sound in Spanish.

Here's Gun, Join Me' LOS ANGELES, Nov. 29 —H F. Pyle, a street ear conductor, had a narrow escape from becoming a hold-up man by proxy early yesterday when Fate threw Pyle into the hands of a negro high wayman. Pyle met the negro on East Seventh street. A revolver was thrust In his face. He said he had nothing of value and a search proved his state ment. "Well, you’re up against It, too,” said the bandit "Take this gun and come with me. I can take you to some easy money." Pyle stood with the revolver in his hand. He had no desire to become a highwayman. ' second later he pointed the gun at the negro and told him to leave The negro ran. Science Explains Mystery of Ghosts Ruin Faces Town; Its Founder a Bankrupt WILMINGTON,. DEL, Nov. 29.—A notable church victory by the Rev. A. W. Lightbourne, pastor of the Chris tian Church, Dover, Del., marks vir tually the ending of the most bitter six-year church feud in the history of Delaware. Dr. Lightbourne joined the Wil mington Methodist Episcopal Confer ence after leaving newspaper work in New York, a half dozen years ago, following his successful prosecution of S. W. F. Cook ran and William H. Baker, well-known preachers, sus pended from the ministry for stock gambling. Lightbourne was deposed for pre senting alleged fraudulent credentials from the Congregational Church. This caused a split, and his follow ers seceded, and, building a $20,000 church, Joined the Christian denomi nation. When the Epworth Methodist Epis copal Church Sunday School here held Its fiftieth anniversary Dr. Light bourne was the central figure. George Morgan, Who Spent 30 Years in Prisons, Trapped. Posed as Manufacturer. Prunes Welcomed In Foreign Lands WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.—Stewed prunes, that staple dish of the Ameri can boarding bouse, apparently has found a welcome home in many foreign lands, judging from the large increase in exports from Pacific Coast States. Figures compiled by the Bureau of Foreign and Domestic Commerce show that during the fiscal year of 1912 more than 118.000,000 pounds, valued at $6.- 000.000, were shipped across the seas. In 1898 the exports amounted only to 16,- 000 <KHJ pounds More than sixty different countries are represented among the prune pur chasers from this country. Germany leads all others. NEW YORK, Nov. 29.—Miss Anna Koener, of No. 264 K street, Staple- ton, was waiting for a friend pt Sixth avenue and Fourteenth street last night when a young man step ped up to her and said: “You’ve Just been robbed. That old fellow' 0 picked your pocket.” Miss Koener Investigated and ut tered a scream of corroboration. Her only quarter and a pair of gold ear rings were in the bag; her friend had not appeared, and Stapleton is a long and watery walk. She screamed again and ran after the aged man. who had been pointed out to her. He w’as moving slowly up the ave nue—a good, upstanding figure for one of many years. He was simply, but warmly clad in fur cap and heavy coat. He turned In polite as tonishment when the young woman gripped his arm. “You stole—I mean—did you—steal my purse?” she faltered. "My dear child, I don’t know w’hat you mean," he replied. “Are you not perhaps a little hasty In making such a charge?” Policeman Burke came up with M. J. Sinclair, the man who had first warned the girl. Burke took them all to the station house, however. The young people were now convinced of the old man’s Innocence and told Lieutenant Finn so. “No pocketbook on him,” said Finn to Lieutenant Beck. "Of course, not. Take him down to hearquarters. He's got a record as long as your arm.” The finger prints and photographs completing a record of half a cen tury of crime were found chronicling the record of "George Morgan.” He was Henry Morton, too, and “Scotch Jack'’ and "Harry King,” as he chose. He was called “The King of the Pick pockets" forty years ago, and thirty years of his seventy have been spent behind prison bars In London, Paris and many cities of the United States.

Nov 29.—Who says thaB times are hard when Califor nians can afford to pay $1,000 apiece for books? The fact Is that one hundred citizens of the State have agreed to pay $100,- 000 for a patron’s edition, to be called "The Birds of California."

Franklin, of Greenfield, Mass., shot an albino deef on Mount Washington, Southern Berkshire. The animal weighed 125 pounds and was one of two that have been roaming about the Mount Everett State reservation for several months. Fifty sportsmen fl orn Pittsburg have been among the hun ers in Mount Washington this week. NEW YORK, Nov. 29.—Because they say that they believe there is not a God, a large number of boys in the four upper classes of Public School No. 72, in East New York, recently developed the habit of maintaining silence during the singing of hymns containing reference to faith in a Deity. Some of the girls in the two upper classes also began to remain silent during the singing. The de crease in volume became so notice able that the teacher in charge of the singing took action to induce the chil dren to sing, and failing in this she referred the matter to the school principal. The principal, Thomas D. Murphy, referred the question to the district superintendent, C. W. Lyon, who went to the school for the purpose of talking with the silence strikers. Mf. Lyon questioned the graduating class of boys, and the same class of girls, and told them that If Joining In the songs was against their beliefs that it was not necessary for them to do so. Since that time a large part of the school singing has been dropped. “We have been taught a lot of things in science about the growth and origin of things, which don’t agree with the things in the Bible, and we take the science,” was the way one boy expressed it. “The Bi ble says that God put the rainbow in the sky a. a sign that there should be no more floods. We have been taught that the rainbow is caused by reflection of the sun’s rays in rain drops falling to the earth In the case of the girls the ground taken is different. Many of the girls are Jews and they say that to sing some of the songs would be against their religion. One song in particu lar to which they objected is the "Battle Hymn of the Republic,” writ ten by Julia Ward Howe during the war between the States. This hymn is contained in the “Song Book of the Nations,” which is used for school singing. “Immortals” Expect This Country to Produce Poet of Rank of Homer and Shakespeare. CHICAGO. Nov. 29.— Grand opem will be written In English. The over emphasis of the sex motif in novels will fade with the uplift of the publio taste.
