a Discovery That May Prove Of Great Adj
vantage.

Captain ]. K. Bingham, United States mill
tary attache at Berlin, has recently brought
to the attention Of the lighthouse board
an important discovery in fash lights, the
invention of Professor Schevn, Of Berlin.
The apparatus is only two metres high bY
thirty-fve centimetres in diameter. O'n the
inside is q bellows through which bsuZne
gas is passed. while air is forced through
pumice stone strongly impregnated with ben
zine This benzine gas IS then passed through
very finely powdered magnesium and satu-
rated herewith: thence il passes out Of an up
night pipe through a small flame. by which II
is lighted. and here il develops a luminosity
of 800. 600 candles. The activity Of the aDpare-
tus is regulated by clockwoTk.
Economy is an important feature Of the
new invention. but Its greatest advantage Is
its ability TO penetrate an almost Opaque at
mosphere % a greater extent than any other
light hitherto produced With the use Of ten
centigrammes Of the magnesium powder 10 rs
shown By the official documents presented by
Captain Bingham that fash OF 100000
candle power can be produced and the flash
can be seen on q clear suushiny day AT dis
lance of six miles. Tho lighthouse officials
are 30 well impressed with the new light that
thew have already ordered an apparatus to be
used 10 experiments at Staten Island. They
have also brought the matter 10 the attention
OF the chief signal officer. who will inquire
into It's merits for military signaling. The
navy officials will also take IL up.
