WIRELESS TELEPHONES.
by which Human Voices Are to he
Readily Heard Through
the Earth.

Sir William Freezes wireless tele-
phone experiments, by which it is an
nounced it has been possible to hear
distinctly a series of taps used on the
Morse principle, has caused great in
terest in the electrical world and has
been made the subject of statement
by DR.. Peter Stiens, who has been hard
at work for years on a system of wire
less telephony.
In an interview with representative
of the London Central News DR.. Stiens
said
Il have read some account Of Sir Will
liam Freezes wireless telephone ex-
periments, but may say that am not
working on Herzian waves at all. My
principle is that of using only one
means OF conduction namely, the
earth. simply send electricity through
the earth from one apparatus to an
other in sympathy with it. No high
poles or balloons or anything of that
kind is required for my system.
MY apparatus is small and portable.
or course, / cannot, for obvious rea-
sons, just at present tell you about its
construction and method of use. / have
not had an opportunity of examining
Sir William Freezes system, but / see
that in the newspaper accounts all that
is claimed for il is that the users can
hear taps, which, when used as a Morse
system, can be utilized in the sending
OF messages.
Nov, from this ii would appear that
to be able TO use his invention one must
be a telegraph operator or other per-
son understanding the Morse code. OF
course | don't know what Sir William
has in mind for the future, but claim
that by my invention not only taps, but
the spoken words, the sound Of the hui
man voice, can be heard and that at
great distances with excellent results.
Soon hope to be in position to give a
series Of practical demonstrations in
the presence of electrical experts

SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.

A concern In Iowa Is making farm
wagons wholly Of steel.
Japanese florists have succeeded In
cultivating n rose which looks red in
the sunlight and white in the shade.
1t is observed by travellers in Siberia
that the effect of constant cold is prac-
tically the same as the effect Of constant
heat. The people develop disinclina-
ton to work, and become strangers to
ambition of any description.
On homogeneous irons and low-carbcn
steels, not subjected to heat-treatment,
II appears that each one per cent. of
nickel added, up TO five per cent,
causes an increase cf about 5000
pounds elastic limit and 1000 pounds
tensile strength.
Maine stands second among the states
In the daily output of pulp and paper.
Including the product OF the three
plants now building II is estimated that
the daily output will be 2,165 tons and
the total investment in this class Of
property will be $3o,oo0,oo0.
Aluminium shoppers for bottles are
now being made at the rate OF several
thousand pounds a week. The blanks
are cut from sheet metal and, after
shaping, rubber gaskets are forced over
them. Such shoppers have retained the
gas of effervescent fluids for four years.
Artificial silks are made of wood
fiber, reduced to cellulose by the action
OF acids. This is dissolved TO glue
like consistency, forced through holes
in glass and drawn out into threads
which dry and harden in the air just
as those of the silk worm or spider do.
The Simplon tunnel, which is now be-
ing bored, and which will be the sec
ond connecting link between Switzer-
land and Italy, is TO be the largest tun-
mel in the world. It's length will be 20
kilometers, or 1874 miles. The st. Goth
ard tunnel has length OF Is kilometers,
and the Mount Gents tunnel, between
France and Italy, is 10 kilometers long.

Indin's Natives Dangerously Awake
TO Events Now Happening In
south Africn.

Private correspondence from India
describes the people of all classes as fol-
lowing the progress of the war in South
Africa with the keenest interest. One
letter graphically says that India is
watching events like a tiger crouching
for a spring" Another from the north
west provinces, commenting on the eff
feet Of the war on the native mind,
says:
You do not realize what this war
means TO us. We get but scrapings and
belated wires The true effect
OF the war is to be seen around us. The
educated Hindoo and Moslem-a very
small percentage, say, two per cent. of
our population of 2s7 1000 OO0-read of
the disaster at Ladysmith. They call all
the Hindoos TO the temples and the
Moslems TO the mosques. and they are
led TO pray for the British arms recent
ly defeated in far-off land Now. the
illiterate Hindoos, the poor 'fellahs,' the
Coolies the lownders,' know nothing
but what they are told. They hear the
prayers and say: "The Belattee Sahibs
(British) are defeated. Is there a ma
ton greater than Britain? And II some
people can defeat them, cannot we also
strive TO regain our land?' To counte-
nance this sentiment you need only re-

bacon. Then he went upstairs to get

When he returned ito the kitchen the
