DR.. NAhsEN's POLAR SHIP.

a Marvel OF Solidity Being Contributed
for the Use of tho Explorer.
DIR. Nansen's polar ship has pro-
crossed so far in construction that n
can now form some idca of it's general
outline, says the Folkebladet, of Chris
tionia. The slanting sides strike the
eye at once. Under the ~supposition
that the vessel will be screwed" by the
ice, care has been taken that no pro-
jecting points or fiat surfaces exist.
The peculiar design is based on the an
~ticipation that all ice, when meeting
the vessel, will be forced down under
it, allowing it to be raised so much out
of the water. For the same reason the
bottom of the vessel is covered with
hard and smooth wood-greenheart,
three to six inches thick. Inside, the
vessel is provided with horizontal, YER
teal and diagonal cross beams, fastened
by hundreds of iron and wooden Joints,
giving the impress Of great solidity.
The frame is mostly old oak. Besides
the outermost covering of greenheart,
there arc two oak skins. The vessel is
provided with a steam engine of 1872
horse power. 1t is rugged as a three.
master schooner and will mainly rely
on its sails when in the ice. Its dimen-
Bions are: Keel, 81 meters; greatest
length Of deck, 80 meters; greatest
width Of deck, IL meters; height from
keel to deck, 5.25 meters; when loaded,
4.75 meters; displacement, 300 tons.
The hull will be extremely heavy on
account of the heavy material used in
its construction, yet it is estimated that
she will be able to carry 400 tons of coal
and provisions, etc. Besides the small
er boats necessary for accommodating,
etc, two large boats are being built
able to hold the whole crew of twelve
men and provisions for three months.
If the polar currents are running as
Nansen supposes, it becomes reason
able to expect that his expedition will
meet with success. His vessel is GER
tainly q marvel of soIidity.

OF GAS.
The Centenary OF Its Discovery in Corn
wall Boing Celebrated This Year.

Tho Centenary OF Its Discovery in Corn
wall EeinS Celebrated This Year.
Among the many anniversaries which
are being celebrated this year is the
centenary of the invention of gas as an
lllulninant. 1t was in 1902 that Will
liam Murdoch first lighted up his
humble home at Redruth, i'll duchy
OF Cornwall, by means of coal gas
made in an iron kettle, into which he
inserted a rough iron tube. 1t was not
until Six years later hat the invention
was developed on n large scale, when
murdoch was employed to establish q
gas lighting apparatus at the great
Soho foundry at Birmingham. In 1903
the Lyccum theatcr in London was first
lighted by gas, and in 1916 the gas
lamps which had been used to illumi-
nate Piccadilly since 1907 became COM
mon throughout London. 1t was Mt
this time, too, that David Melville, of
Newport, r. l., first adapted gas, for
the manufacture of which he had Sc
cured n patent in 1906, to the Beaver
Tail lighthouse, and it has since be-
come n of the principal illuminants
used in those watch towers which, in
imitation of the ancient Pharos, are
!" oNuLOSIcu I'LL over Tie RlODG Tor
the guidance and protection of ships
and mariners.
1t is doubtful, in the opinion Of the
New York Tribune, whether 4 hundred
years hence, OF the occasion of the BIZ
centenary of the invention of gas, the
latter will still retain the commanding
position which it now occupies as an IL
luminant. On every side signs increase
which presage that the g Of electric
ity is at hand-that age which is
far more likely to revolutionize the civ
~ilization Of the world than any Of its
predecessors. Gas will probably be
gradually forced into a back seat, and
its use confined to stoves and fireplaces,
which find such favor among the small
households of crowded cities. It will
be entitled, however, to the grateful
remembrance Of man as n powerful
factor in the development Of his civil
zation and progress during the past
| hundred years.

RAYARes OF SQUIRRELS.

The general impression that squirrels
live altogether IN grains, acorns and
nuts is not altogether correct. SPUR
rels will suck eggs and kill young
chickens and small birds with as much
ferocity as a weasel. These peculiari-
ties are not often noticed in the SPUR
rel, because the animal is not bold
enough to venture on extensive dcpre-
dations in the daytime, but farmers
