SPOKANE. —Mrs. R. H. Tucker, an
expert telegrapher, until recently a
resident of Spokane, where her hus
band was manager of the Western
Union Telegraph company, and who
claims to be the first woman wire
less operator in the world, has done
more, her employers sav, to purify the
air over Puget Sound than all the
missionaries in the world. She is
now stationed on the steamer Indian
apolis plying between Tacoma and
Sound points.
“The only reason I can think of
why more women do not go into the
wireless service is because they are
afraid of the instruments." said Mrs.
Tucker, who is paying a short visit
to friends here. “1 never was. I
am my own electrician. I understand
the thing thoroughly. There is no
part of the apparatus that I cannot
repair, except—perhaps If an aerial
wire should blow down. I could hardly
elhnb the mast to repair It. How-;
ever, the sailors are kind and would
help me out in an emergency of that!

Tucker is manager of the wireless at
Tacoma and I am in frequent com

"When 1 started the manager in

were somewhat careless with their
language, and that a seasoned mule
driver would have to go some to hold

that a woman was at one of the in

in a way that would do credit to a
well regulated Bible class, and we

There is on exhibition in a window
! in Saco the largest lobster that has
been landed In these parts for years,
if not ever. The lobster measures
thirty Inches in total length and his
body proper is twenty inches long. Be
fore boiling he weighed nine and one
fourth pounds, and boiled weighs sev
en pounds. The lobster was caught
by John E. Lewis, Jr., off Straton’s Is
land, In Saco Bay. in one of his traps
on Wednesday. The big fellow was
the only occupant of the trap and
none of the lobsters in the other traps
near by were of greater than average
size. He is the biggest catch of the
kind that Mr. Lewie, has ever lasded.
Claws and part* of lobsters have been
exhibited before, which were said to
belong to lobsters which would weigh
more than this one. but the exhibit is
the largest ot its kind exhibited whole
jhat local people can seem to remem
ber about. —Kennebec Journal.
