on the principle just indicated. At the sending
station he uses an electric light Of the arc pat
tern inasmuch as the electric arc is particularly
rich in ultraviolet rays. The light from the
lamp is concentrated by means of a concave
mirror as in the case Of a searchlight and is
projected in a slender, compact beam lens
used in the front Of the lamp to assist in the
work of concentration is made Of a specially
selected material. a kind of quartz which will
not filter out Of the light the invisible ultraVio-
let rays. Immediately ahead Of the lens Is
placed a movable screen Of glass, that has also
been chosen carefully because it will obstruct
these ultra violet rays, although IT will not in
terfere with the visible radiance from the arc

TEN Of telegraphy knows that the operator alter

bringing one terminal in contact with the other

during which a contact lasts and the size OF
the space between the contacts can be varied
enough to constitute full alphabet In the
Zickler system the letters are formed after the
Morse code or any other that may be preferred
simply by removing the glass screen from in

this way are Of such lengths and are so spaced

AT the receiving station a bit Of apparatus Is
used in which q suitable lens catches the pencil
Of parallel rays and focuses them. Just inside
the box in whose front this lens is set there are
two terminals Of an electric circuit brought near
TO each other, but without touching. one or the
terminals is a small globe coated with platinum

A METHOD RADICALLY DIFFERING FROM
MARCONPS PLAN

zlcKLER USES AN INVISIBLE RADIANCE
EMITTED BY COMMON ARC LIGHT
A system Of wireless telegraphy differing in
principle from that Of Marconi is attracting at

essential fact which is utilized in the new
method was discovered by Hertz in 1887, and
has since been developed more fully by other
investigators.
Ordinary white light when analysed by
prism is broken up into a spectrum Of various
colors. each one representing vibrations Of the
ether AT a different rate from those OF the Oth-
