OCEAN VOYAGE ROMANCE
MEETING ON STEAMER RESULTS
IN MARRIAGE.

Venus and Mars met at Hymen's al
tar yesterday in the marriage of Mrs.
Vivian Jones of Salt Lake and Cap
tain Walter Kirton, famous the world
over as a way correspondent. The
wedding was quietly celebrated in the
office of the county clerk at the City
and County building about II o'clock
Captain and Mrs. KirtOn will leave
this morning for a six months trip
to China, to which country Captain
Kirton has been detailed by the Lon
don Graphic, for which he is a spe-
cial writer. Mrs. KirtOn is we'll known
to Salt LakerS as Madame" Jones,
for several years designer of fashions
at the Keith-O' Brien company.
Behind the wedding which culmi-
mated yesterday is a pretty love story
extending over a period of two years
and having some of it's scenes set in
London, some in Salt Lake and some
in mid-ocean.
About eighteen months ago Captain
K1rtOn was returning from the Russo
Japanese war. He had been sent out
before the war broke out as a spe-
eial correspondent of the Central News
bureau and the London Graphic, TO
cover one of the largest assignments
ever given a writer-telling the story
as it happened during the progress of
the war.
On his way out the captain went
from ST Petersburg to Toxic via the
Trans-Siberian railroad. To vary the
monotony partly, and also because il
was dangerous to travel overland TO
London, Captain Kirton sailed from
ing to New York and on to Lon
don.

THE FIRST COMPASS.
Was Known to Sailors Before the
Twelfth Century-Indispen
Adjunct to Navigation.

Some Asian people, perhaps the Chi
nese, discovered, many centuries ago,
that kind of iron ore possessed a very
peculiar quality. We call this ore
magnetic ore, in more common lam
guage, lodestone, and it is very widely
distributed, especially in the older
crystalline rocks. 1t was found that
If a bit of lodestone were placed in
water upon a piece of cork or straw
braid it would turn till the axis OF the
stone assumed a north and south posi-
ton. phenomenon of magnetism had
been discovered by means of an ore
that is peculiarly susceptible to mag
netic influence.
1t is an open question whether the
Chinese utilized the directive power OF
the lodestone, but it is certain that the
first rude compass was not used on
European vessels before the twelfth
century Of our era. BY that time the
true magnetic compass had been
evolved through the discovery that If
an iron or steel needle were stroked
on a lodestone it would receive the at
tractive and directive power of this
ore. With this wonderful appliance
placed at the Service of navigation, the
vessels that had Rugged the coasts soon
dared to venture even out of sight OF
land. A new impetus was gradually
given to cartography, for now the true
directions of the coast lines might be
charted with some approach to accu-
racy. 1t was the hapy fortune Of Ital-
ian sailors to make the surprisingly ex-
cellent surveys of the directions and
lengths of the Black sea and Mediter-
ranean coasts and along the Atlantic
