Making Electricity of Light

What is light? This has been the
query not only of the scientists, but
Of the philosophers of every age.
Modern research brings us one step
nearer the solution of the problem by
showing this cause to be closely con-
nected with one of the fundamental
questions of recent years, What is
electricity"
An answer to the first Of these
questions is ventured by the modern
electronic theory of the constitution
OF matter. On this view all SUBJ
stances contain within their atoms a
number of exceedingly small aggrega-
tions, each carrying a negative charge.
Suppose. explains DR.. Bergen Davis,
of Columbia university, in the New
York Times, the circle in Fig. 1 to
represent an atom, the dots within to
represent these small charged CEN
ters. the electrons. and the shaded

THE SUBMARINE BELL.
Device by Which Vessels at Sea Are
Able to Avoid Shoals and Col
lisions with Other Ships,

The submarine bell has been per-
fected until now its use will enable the
navigator to locate the position of
their ships, and also that of shoals,
buoys, lighthouses and lightships, and
IN foggy weather avoid collision with
other vessels.
AS stmplified by late improvements,
the system now comprises two very
simple parts, these being a signaling
apparatus, consisting of submerged
bell OF a design adapted to produce
sounds in the water, and the receiving
apparatus on ship, which picks up
the sound of the bell and enables the
pilot to determine its direction
The sound receiving apparatus as
applied to vessels consists of pair
OF sensitive electric transmitters
placed on the inside of the ship,
against the outer plating or planking,
below the water line, one transmitter
being on the port side and the other
on the starboard. Both transmitters
are connected by wires to a single tel
ephone receiver box in the pilot
house. A switch at this point en-
ables the pilot to listen to the sound
as received either on the port or the
starboard side of the ship, and by
