Among the angels and the vines of the
fa巽ade of San Lorenzo, an Indian
princess appears, and all the symbols of
the defeated Incan culture are given a
new lease on life. The Indian half-moon
disturbs the traditional serenity of the
Corinthian vine. American jungle leaves
and Mediterranean clover intertwine. The
sirens of Ulysses play the Peruvian
guitar. And the flora, the fauna, the
music, and even the sun of the ancient
Indian world are forcefully asserted.
There shall be no European culture in the
New World unless all of these, our native
symbols, are admitted on an equal
footing.

World,

Horse-phone:
Like earlier horse-phones, it had a cord. Wire stored on a 5-mile reel
played out as a scout rode. The improved model let a rider make calls
without having to first dismount and then drive a spike into the ground to
complete the electrical connection. Instead, the grounding wire was
attached to the horses skin. The mild electrical current would pass through
its body to its hoofs, one of which was almost always touching the ground.
(Popular Mechanics, Sep. 1907)

  • #22: Lars Magnus Ericsson operated the first car phone as early as 1910. This was not wireless: there were two long sticks, like fishing rods, handled by [Lars wife] Hilda. She would hook them over a pair of telephone wires.
