"Story of Telegraph" Told at Commercial Club Meeting by E. W. Titus of Indian- , apolis. , - ..""V.-'"""-;":. USES PICTURE SCREEN Dispatch of Cable Messages Requires little CurrentMorse System Adapted to All Conditions. The first telegraphic message, a call for Tolunteert Immediately after the declaration of war by President Lincoln, was flashed on the screen Mon day evening during the stereopticon lecture by E. W. Titus, of Indianapolis, district superintendent of the Western Union Telegraph company, at the Com mercial club meeting. The telegram reads as follows: "War Department, Washington, April 15,. 1861. To His Excellency, William A. Buckingham, governor of Connecticut, Hartford, Conn.: Call made on you by tonight's mail for one regiment of militia for immediate service, (Signed) Simon Cameron, Secretary of War." " . . Message Preserved This message, the speaker said, was transmitted by what was termed the House Printing Telegraph system and the original message as received at Hartford was preserved by Charles Stancliff, the Hartford operator. The message was far from perfect as there were many faulty impulses of electricity shown in the transmission. "Among the names of operators during the civil war is that .of Andrew CHrnegle." aid Mr. Titus. "The Story of the Telegraph" was told at the meeting, Th'e invention of the electric telegraph was accomplished by an American professor, Samuel F. B. Morse and the ordinary method cf lelegruph'c transmission bears the mine of Jlorse telegraphy. The invention dates bnc'i to tha year 1832 83 yrtirf ngo. It was embodied in correct mechanical form in 1837 five years later. In the work of developing the system Mr. Morse was assisted by Alfred Vail. ' Recalls Early Efforts. "Even in days most remote," said Mr. Titus, the desire was existent to communicate over distances by means' of signals. As far as our knowledge goes, the first account of the transmission of news was some 3,000 years ago, in 1084 B. C. This account is derived from the, story which Aeschylus told Agamemno:i and the siege of Troy." "It appears thrt a seties cf bncon signals had bean arransed bit wee. Troy and Greece and according to th3 account Agamemnon having taken fen years to capture the city, the.telegraph operators along the line racr.t have liad h tiresome wait. Signals were continued until, the invention of. the tclfgraph. Morse operators today attain a speed cf from 30 to 50 words a minute or from 40 to 50 average meeFuges an hour and the automatic systems are capable of much higher speed Mnder favorable conditions.

"The real secret of keeping young-looking and beautiful," aays a well-known hygienist, "is to keep the liver and bowels normally active. Without these requisites, poisonous waste products remain in the system, polluting the blood and lodging in various organs, tissues, joints. One becomes flabby, obese, nervous, mentally sluggish, dull-eyed, wrinkled nd sallow of face. "But to get liver and bowels working as they ought, without producing evil after-effects has been the problem. Fortunately, there is m prescription of unquestioned merit, which may now be had in convenient tablet form. Its value is due largely to an ingredient derived from the humble May apple, or its root, which has been called 'vegetable calomel because of its effectiveness though, of course, it is not to be classed with the real calomel of mercurial origin. There is no habit-forming constituent in 'sentanel' tablets that's the name and their use is not followed by weakness or ezhsustion.

James Carr, of Richmond, was present at the banquet of the United States Chamber of Commerce at Washington, D. C, at which Secretary of War Garrison was scheduled to speak.

"Federal Militia as Opposed to State Militia." Because he could not speak on this subject, he did not speak at all, Mr. Carr said, and the next day, the announcement of his resignation was printed in the newspapers. "It can be truthfully said," Mr. Carr told the members of the Commercial club last evening, "that the banquet of the United States Chamber of Commerce was the 'straw that broke the camel's back.'" . TWO CLAIMS FILED. The two claims against the estate of John W. Minnick, were dismissed today in circuit court at the cost of the plaintiffs. The claims were for $65.98 and were brought by Joseph W. Minnick and H. C. Minnick. Dandruff Soon Ruins the Hair Girls if you want plenty of thick, beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all means get rid of dandruff, for it will starve your hair and ruin it if you don't. It doesn't do much good to try to brush or wash it out. The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve it, then you destroy It entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By morning, most jf not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it. You will find, too, that all Itching and digging of the scalp will stop, and your hair will look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any 'drug store. It is inexpensive and four ounces is all you will need, no matter how much dandruff you have. This simple remedy never fails. adv.
