Aluminium to Displace Copper Wires

Aluminium to Dlsplace Copper Wires.
New York, Dec. 4.-The rapid rise in
the price of copper at first was viewed
with dismay by the telegraph, telephone
and electrical companies in general.
AS the price scared upward and finally
began to go skyward the electricians
were in despair. 1t meant double cost
for wires and other parts of electrical
conducting machinery. Experiments
were instituted with aluminium and it
has been demonstrated to be a perfect
conductor for an electric circuit; be-
sides is 60 per cent cheaper than copper
wire and is lighter and cheaper to
handle,

fact is the British scouts have lost
touch of the burghers, portions of

Sharp fighting may be expected at any

We do not believe that the present

UPPER REGIONS OF THE AIR.
UnexplOred Space Il Very Much More
Interesting Than the
North Pole.

Above US there extends 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 regions
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 below
zero. 1t would be region of perpetual
snow on peak of the earth if it should
rise to such height. A person in a bal
loon could not hear friend in a neigh
boring 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 medium in fact of great con-
ductibility-almost as good as a metal;
and it is this medium at even a less
height which Tesla proposes to use in
his methods of transmitting power
hundreds of miles through the air with
out wires.
We live under blanket of air which
protects US from the extreme cold of
outer space. This low temperature be-
comes evident 14,000 or Is, 900 feet above
the surface of the earth, and would, as
I have said, reach a point far below zero
at height of ten miles. At this height
we should no longer observe the twink
ling of the stars; for this scintillation is
due to the movements of our atmos-
phere, which at the height have men
toned would be extremely rarefed. If
one could photograph the suns spec
trum at this altitude we could greatly
extend our knowledge of the shortest
wave lengths of light; for the atmos-
phe7e completely absorbs such wave
| lengths as are concerned in the X-ray
phenomena. That this absorption real
ly takes place can be proved in labora-
tory.
The heat and light which we receive
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 interme-
diate waves are ter4Ied light waves;
and we receive these in full measure
The very short waves, however, are
stopped by our atmosphere and are
transformed -what2-Forum.
