UPPER REGIONS OF THE AIR
Unexplored Space More Interesting
Than the North Pole.
From the Forum.

From the Forum.
Above us there extends a vast uneX-
plored space far more interesting from
a scientific point Of view than the icy
regions around the north pole. No one
can reach the limit of the upper reg
ions of the air and live, unless he
carries with him air to breathe and fuel
to warm him, for at the paltry distance
of ten miles above the earth the air
is too thin to support respiration. and
the thermometer would register far be-
low zero. 1t would be a region of per-
Detual snow on a peak of the earth
if ii should rise To such a height. A
person in a balloon could not hear a
friend in neighboring balloon, even
if they were near enough to shake
hands. There would be no medium for
the propagation of sound waves. There
would, however, still be q medium for
the conduction of electricity--a medium
in fact of great conductibility-almos
as good as a metal; and ii is this
medium at even a less height which
Telsa proposes to use in his methods
of transmitting power hundreds of
miles through the air without wires.
We live under a blanket of air which
protects us from the extreme cold of
outer space. This low temperature be-
comes evident fourteen or fifteen thou
sand feet above the surface of the
earth, and would, as / have said, reach
a point far below zero at a height OF
ten miles. At this height We should
no longer observe the twinkling of the
stars; for this scintillation is due 10
the movements Of our atmosphere,
which at the height | have mentioned
would be extremely rarefied. If one
could photograph the suns spectrum
at this altitude we could greatly eX-
tend our knowledge of the shortest
wave lengths of light: for the atmOs-
phere completely absorbs such wave
lengths as are concerned in the X-ray
phenomena. That this absorption really
takes place can be proved i'm a labora-
tory.
The heat and light which we received
from the sun are thus greatly modified
by this blanketing layer of air. The
long waves of the energy from the sun
are called heat waves. The intermed-
tate waves are termed light waves; and
we receive these in full measure. The
very short waves, however, are stopped
by our atmosphere and are transform
ed into-whatI

The result Of the primary election
held in the Third ward does not seem
to give universal satisfaction and from
