Wireless Long Distance Record

AMONG the inventions which mark the present as the time of fulfilment of the prophecy which says that in the last days “many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased,” the wireless telegraph is one of the most important. We have seen this means of bringing all the world together rapidly develop in the last few months. A dispatch from Sydney, New South Wales, May 24, gives the most recent record. The American steamer “Ventura,” on arriving at Sydney, is said to have reported that she picked up a wireless message from the station at Tuckerton, N. J., nine thousand miles distant from that point. This is thought to be a world record for long distance transmission.
