WIRELESS AIDS TO SHIPS.
Signals Which Avert Danger from
Icebergs in the North
Atlantic.

Incoming transatlantic steamships
bring reports of encountering large
numbers OF icebergs In the direct
course OF the great European ferry.
Prom all accounts, says the Washing
ton Star, there are more and larger
bergs afloat this spring than for many
years past, and the danger in the
shipping is correspondingly increased.
But, thanks to the application OF wire
less telegraphy to the liners, Il is now
possible for one vessel to give another
warning Of the location of dangerous
bergs, and so lessen the chances Of
disastrous collision.
This occurred on the latest trip OF
the Kaiser Wilhelm H.. which reached
port on her first spring run, after a
thorough overhauling at Bremerhaven.
SO it was the ship that her officers
had hoped TO establish a new record
for the run westward, and she was GO
ing ahead at a rate which promised
such a result when she received a sig
nal from the Teutonic, 60 miles away
on the eastbound course, telling Of the
presence Of nine bergs in the direct
path OF the Kaiser. and Supplementary
this with a message the Teutonic had
received from the Cunarder Caronia
announcing that there were 40 bergs
further on in the Kaiser's course.
Thus warned, the officers OF the
giant racer determined to sacrifice
speed 20 safety and to slow down upon
approaching the probable location OF
the bergs. which had been given IN
terms OF latitude and longitude by the
Teutonic On the next morning a
dense fog closed Ia. and the steamship
crept ahead. comparatively speaking.
with extra lookouts on guard and the
fog whistle sounding at intervals fer
tho special purpose OF catching an
echo from some mass OF ice. There
were no such signs, but presently the
temperature OF the water dropped
from IA degrees 10 one degree cent?
grade. and It was known that the ice
was near.
Fortunately. the fog lifted soon aft
erward and disclosed a western hor-
lion studded with bergs OF all sizes.
some OF them large enough TO have
sunk. or. At least. seriously crippled.
the liner II Il struck at full speed.
Through the feet Of bergs the Kaiser
then sped at high rate. taking advan-
taee Of the sunlight but several times
being compelled to shift course In or
der TO avoid masses OF ice. Thus the
ship went In safety through a danger
which might have caused the loss Of
a great craft and hundreds Of people.
Such incidents prove that the wire
less telegraphy Is being applied 10
make ocean travel safer. and n Il Is
never put 10 a broader use Il will by
this application alone. have Justified
the expenditures and labors OF rs In

FEEDING THE sNAPPERs.
Sight That Always Proves Attrae-
tive to Visitors at the New
York Aquarium.

The feeding Of the swapping turtles
at the aquarium is a sight that inter.
ests the visitors there, and at feed
ing time the snappers' pool is always
surrounded by a close ring of spec
tators.
The snappers don't require much
food in winter One or two feelings
month suffice for them, but with the
spring their appetite returns, and then
they are fed twice a week, and three
times a week in summer.
Raw beef cut up into little chunks
convenient for them is what the snap.
ping turtles are fed on here, and COM
monty when the attendant who feeds
them steps down the slope leading
from the platform TO the surface of
the water. with a supply of this food,
all the snappers assemble at his feet
TO meet him. One or two may stay
away of in the pool, and 10 them
chunks of the meat are thrown, but
usually they all come up in a bunch,
eager for the food.
The swapping turtle is not among
the captive creatures that are fed by
hand, for it has a sharp beak and
strong Jaws, which could easily crush
OF bite off finger, and so the food
given to the assembled turtles is
handed down TO them in each case on
the end of a pointed stick. The at.
tendant spears out of his collection on
the end of this stick a little chunk
of meat which he thus hands down
to a turtle, and as it is held nearer
out darts the turtles head with light
ning-like suddenness and to a distance
likely to be surprising to many TO
seize IL, giving a graphic illustration OF
how this variety OF turtle came by its
name Of swapping turtle; It snaps its
