TELEGRAPHY WITHOUT WIRES.
No one invention of the past few
years is so likely to revolutionize ocean
travel as telegraphy without wires. it
is so peculiarly mysterious as well as
so important in its bearing upon the
safety and comfort of the ocean voy-
ager that no well-informed person can
afford fo'be ignorant of the principals
at the basis of it or of the extent to
which it is already used for the de-
light of the transatlantic passenger
For this reason as well as for the rea-
son that it at ords remarkable sug-
gestions as io‘ o ritntl things the pas-
tor of the First Congregational Church
in Norwalk will tell about it at the ser-
vice tomorrowove as an introduc-

ranging on “A Summer Trip in the

“Voices Across the Sea"'or “The Won-
