A MESSAGE FROM The GALE.
Listening on the Ice Tloe to the Roar OF
the Coming storm.

Listening on the Ice Tloe to the Roar of
the Coming storm.
When the swell is heavy in the ice
pack, il is often very difficult to ascer-
tain from which direction it comes, and
just as difficult as it is, just SO impor-
tant may it be that il should be found
out rightly. as the safety of the ship
might wholly depend upon correct judg-
ment as to this When the huge ice
masses begin to move and screw and
press on the sides of the vessel, rising
and falling in heavy swell, then there
is only one escape-namely, to work the
vessel into the fields away from the side
from which the gale blows A mistake
as to the direction of the running swell
has often proved fatal, and the mistake
is easily made.
An old arctic sealer told me how i'll
hours of dread in the arctic icepack he
had laid his ear down to the ice foe and
listened to the roar of the coming swell
that terrible message from the furious
gale-and how he thus had discovered
whence the gale was pressing and had
been able to save the ship from destruc-
ton. | tried his method and found that
it worked admirably. What is we'll
worth noticing is that open water nearly
always is to be found in the ice pack on
one side of icebergs. The icebergs that
we met were generally in motion, car
ried onward by the ruling current. Of
ten they ran forward in the icetields at
a speed of several knots, piling up the
huge foes before their cold, glittering
bows, but behind them they left an open
sheet of water large enough for any ship.
Now, there would of course be many
dangers for vessel tugged along in the
ice pack by such a floating monster, but
/ believe nevertheless that this method
might be Instrumental i'll saving YES
sci from being crushed when the icefeld
is moving heavily. &C. L. Borchgrevink

imported song 1srrus rnrlve.

Inquiry has been received by The
Spokesman Review concerning the re-
suit Of AN experiment made a few years
ago with European singing birds in Ore
gon. Several hundred were brought over
and released in the vicinity of Port
land, with the hope that they would
thrive and multiply and enliven the for
ests with their inspiring notes. Includ-
ed in the collection were specimens Of
the skyiark. nightingale, thrush and
mayis. Tie experiment has proved a
pleasing success. The imported songsters
have spread over wide area, and >oc-
casionally few have been seen east Of
the Cascade mountains. The climate is
favorable and the citizens of German
birth. who raised the purse to introduce
the songsters Of the fatherland, say the
little strangers sing as sweetly here as
in the land across the sea. Spokane

USES OF OZONE.
Valuable For ArtifioialIy Aging Liquor OF
Seasoning Wood.

Ozone is now practically applied for
several purposes. Experiments with it
have shown that il will artificially age
brandy, whisky, sweet and hard wines
and liquors. Ozone will also improve
coffee by rendering harmless oily beans.
The aroma Of tobacco is also considera-
bly, improved by the application Of
ozone. The latest application of it is for
rapid seasoning of wood for sounding
boards of musical instruments, which
for the purpose is left in a Theoretically
closed, heated room from ~ TO "a
hours, ozonifed air being freely intro
duced into the room. 1t seems that this
process will harden the wood, increase
its resistance against the influence Of
temperature and moisture and give it
considerably more acoustic or resound-
ing quality.
Another recent application of ozonitied
air is that of the thickening of lnseed
oil for the manufacture of linoleum,
which by the old process took several
months By the liberal use of ozone
linseed oil is now thickened to the re-
uuired consistency within few days.
Most remarkable, however, is the adj
vantage of employing ozone for bleach
ing linen, since the time employed is
less than one-tbird of the bleaching proc
ess by sunlight, not considering that
this latter is dependent both upon the
season and the weather The ozone proc
ess of bleaching renders the work abso
lutely independent of outside influences.
Ozone has also been found very valua-
BILE in chemical and technical processes,
particularly i'll the production of pure
derivatives of starch, for instance, solu-
BILE starch, dextrin, crystal gum, etc.
Here the ozone is instrumental in tax
ing away all the matter which causes
the dark color, bad odor and taste. -

Opening his knapsack, he fumbled In

stout gray flannel shirt This he tore into
strips, and, knotting the strips together,
he had In little while string long
enough to reach across the dangerous
slope. As he worked he chatted with the
girl, who was cool enough now that some
one was near to aid her.
She had been picking berries, she told
him, and, although she knew the ground
well and understood how treacherous the
grassy slopes were, after the late summer
sun scorched them, she had slipped from
pure carelessness, and falling, she had slid
out Of reach of the bushes. Struggling to
rise, she had slipped farther and farther
toward the edge until she realized that
her only chance Of safety was to lie still
and call for help.
