ARMY TO TRY AUTOMOBILE

Motor vehicles will be used as a
part of the equipment of the hospital
service of the United States army and
vehicle has already been accepted
by the department an; placed in SER
vice at the Washington general hos
pitla where it is undergoing a prac-
teal test of its fitness for the work.
The man principally responsible for
its adoption is Captain Clyde s. Ford,
attached to the medical supply depot
at New York. Captain Ford said that
he first became interested in the motor
car four, years ago upon his return
from the Philippines when he became
convinced that auto propulsion might
become of great value to the ambulance
service. Accordingly he made some
Investigations on his own responsible
ity, touching the practicibility of the
machines then in use, and sought to
determine whether or not the makers
were ready to present machine which
would be reliable in constant and ar
duous service. The result Of the infor-
nation he gained was embodied in
report made by him tn the department.
According to his iGea the prime re-
quisite in the adoption of q motor We
hicle for government work was that 1t
should not involve the adoption of any
new principle or the introduction, of
any new materials into the depart
ment. Then the most important point
to be considered, when the possibility
of travelling over rough roads or no
roads at all was to be taken into ac-
count. was that an even turning move
ment should be gained and that the
power Of the motor should be available
through the greatest possible speed
range. In addition to this there was,
of course. clause providing for
due factor Of reliability and fitness for
service under, prolonged strain sub
jecta to adverse conditions. S:
Following along this line Of argu-
ment Captain Ford came to the con-;
clusion that steam must beused and
that neither electricity nor an internal
combustion motor could be used in
their present stage Of development.
Being unable to find any existing
machine which met the requirements
as he saw them he proceeded to out
line such machine AZ he thought
would serve the purpose.
The matter rested at this point for
two years when Captain Ford met
Roland White. an engineer who was
not only willing to take up the sub
ject with him from an engineers
standpoint and build ! machine deaign-

Vienna, June 6.-Emperor William,

arrived on visit to Emperor Francis
Joseph. There was no ceremonious
entry into Vienna, the German EN-
peror leaving his train outside the

meaning is heightened by the an

two days and by the further fact that
several high officials of the German

Kaiser's suite.

WHERE EYE-sieHr IS GOOD.

Best Where Distances Are Vast and
Obstacles Are Few.
The best eyesight is possessed by
those people whose lands are vast and
barren, and where obstacles tending
to shorten the sight are few. Esqui-
maux will detect a white fox In the
snow at great distance away. while
the Arabs OF the desert have such ex.
treme powers of vision that on the
vast plains OF the desert they will pick
out objects invisible to the ordinary
eye at ranges from one to ten miles
distant Among civilized people the
Norwegians have better eyesight than
most, II not all. others, as they more
generally fulfil the necessary condi-
tions. The reason why defective eyes
are so much on the increase in Ameri.
ca lies in too much study of books
in early life and in badly-lighted
rooms.
