Signor Marconi, the inventor of the wireless telegraphy, who returned recently to Italy from America at the request of the Italian government, is likely to prove of great use to his country in the present crisis. An amusing story Is told about a reply that the celebrated inventor once made to a lady who mistook him for his equally famous compatriot, Mas-cagni, the composer.

"Oh," she said, gushingly, "I'd love to hear you play your beautiful 'Intermezzo'!" "Madam," replied Marconi gravely, "I'll do it with pleasure if you've got a wireless piano." Deliver Us! George W. Perkins, in a Y. M. C. A.

Some of the people wondered why he wanted to get hold property with such an incubus of uncertainty upon it. Others thought that perhaps he wanted some legal knitting-work, and would pitch in red hot to fight that line-fence question on hi3 own hook.

That's what the owner of the adjoining land thought. So he braced himself for trouble when he saw Hackett coming across the fields one day. Said Hackett: "What's your claim here, anyway, as to this fence?" "I replied the neighbor, "that your fence is over on my land two feet at one end and one foot at least at the other end." "Well," replied Hackett, "you go ahead just as quick as you can and set your fence over. At the end where you say that I encroach on you two feet, set the fence on my land four feet. At the other end, push it on my land two feet." "But," persisted the neighbor, "that's twice what I claim." "I don't care about that," said Hackett.

"There's been fight enough over this land. I want you to take enough so you are perfectly satisfied, and then we can get along pleasantly. Go ahead and help yourself." The man paused abashed. He had been ready to commence the old struggle, tooth and nail, but this move of the new neighbor stunned him. Yet he wasn't to be outdone in generosity.

He looked at Hackett. "Squire," said he, "that fence ain't going to be moved an inch. I don't want the land. There wasn't nothin in the fight, anyway, but the principle of the thing." Unidentified. FISH HAVE NOVEL WEAPONS Among Them Is the Power to Gen erate Electricity to a Most Re-.

Doctor Dahlgreer talked on "Production of Electricitj by Animals." And he pointed oul that it was only by fish that electricitj was produced by living organisms foi apparent. use, with the single ex ception of a mollusk found in Asia Minor.

The fishes mentioned as capable ol shocking other members of the finny tribe by electric flashes from theii eyes were along the coast of New Jersey, he said. Some of the electric eels found in South American waters, Doctor Dahlgreen were capable of generating a current of more than 600 volts, although they could, as a rule, deliver not more than 250 volts, because of the resistance of their own bodies. Certain torpedo fishes were described by Doctor Dahlgreen as capable of generating electricity in sufficient quantities to numb their enemies and also to facilitate the capture of their prey.
