Television, the art of seeing by wire, has apparently been changed from a seieutifio dream into an ac- complished fact. According to a despatch just received from Ber- lin, Ernst Ruhmor, a young Ger- man electrical engineer, has finally stic•c•eeded in perfecting the first working model of a television ale paratus. The apparatus is now in the custody of tho Belgian Govern- ment, which is reported to be so favorably impressed that it is seri- ously considering the construction of an elaborate plant as the most wonderful o,ntribution to the Brus- sels Exhibition planned for 1910. THE PRINCIPLE INVOLVED in television is not new ; it lies in the well established fact that any picture may bo made up of light and dark spots. Where Ruhmor has vanquished his rivals is in dis- covering a satisfactory application of the principle. Ily his invention the light and darkspots are ilkPORTS FROM THE LEADING TRADE CENTRES.
