The Trick That Saved Mcrac With Hla
First Telegraph Lina.
It is nut generally known that
the earliest experiments in electri
cal communication were made with
the expectation of using under
ground wires. In 1843 congress ap
propriated $30,000 to enable Pro
fessor Morse to test his newly in
vented telegraph on a line between
Washington and Baltimore.
A Maine man interested in the
plow business had taken the con
tract to lay the pipe containing the
wires at $100 per mile, and Ezra
Cornell happened to call at hia of
fice in Portland whan he was trying
to invent a machine to do the work.
Mr. Cornell at once sketched a ma
chine something like a plow, which
would cut a deep and narrow fur
row and lay the pipe In the furrow
as it moved along. Professor Morse
asked Mr. Cornell to bnild such a
machine, and the contrivance prov
ing practicable Mr. Cornell was ask
ed to take charge of laying the pipe.
The work was begun at Balti
more in October, 1843, and- went
forward satisfactorily, but the dis
covery was presently made that im
perfect insulation allowed the cur
rent to escape from one wire to an
other. A serious crisis was at hand.
The appropriation for the experi
ment was nearly exhausted, and
Professor Morse felt that to sus
pend operations at that stage would
be a confession of failure.
Accordingly Professor Morse call
ed Mr. Cornell said« and said:
“ Can’t you contrive somehow to
stop the work for a few days so
that the papers will not know that
it.has been purposely interrupted?
I want to make some experiments
before any more pipe is hud.”
Cornell stepped back to the ma
chine and shouted: “ Hurrah, boys,
whip np your moles! Wa most lay
another length of pipe before we
quit for the night I”
The teamsters cracked their whips,
the animals started at a lively pace.
Mr. Cornell grasped the handles of
the plow ana, watching his oppor
tunity, canted it over so as to catch
into a point of rock. The machine
was completely wrecked.
The experiments that Professor
Morse made decided him to put the
wires on poles. By the following
the line between Washington
and Baltimore was in operation^—’

The W hit* B roosted Nuthatch.
The while breasted nuthatch is
often mistaken for a small wood
pecker. Its name was suggested by
the habit of wedging nuts, especial
ly beechnuts, in the crevices of bark
and breaking them open by blows
from his sharp, strong bill. Insects
and spiders constitute about 50 per
cent of its food! the largest items
being beetle«, moths, caterpillars,
ants and wasps. More than half of
the vegetable food eaten Consists of
mast, acorns and other nuts and
large seeds. Only one-tentb of its
food is grain. The bird does no in
jury, as far as known'; and much
good.

One of the oldest milestones is to
be seen in the museum at Leicester,
England. It is a cylindrical block
of sandstone roughly inscribed with
an abbreviated statement to the e f
fect that it was erected during the
emperorship of Caesar Hadrian, son
of Trajan, conqueror of Parthia. It
also. says, “ To Lift-ester. Two
Miles.” The Hadrian milestone was
discovered over a century ago be
side the ancient Fosse way and nar
rowly escaped being convened into

practical finder.
