A Miners Breathing Apparatus.

Consul Joseph I. Britain, of Prague,
writes concerning a new method for
using liquid air:
"At a recent meeting of the Austrian
Miners Association an invention by
Otto Suess. an engineer. to carry liquid
air into the mines. The invention is
called "aerolth," and, it is said will SUI
percede all previously existing systems
in use The aerolith is based upon the
utilization of liquid air. Until recently
liquid air, which could only be produced
by expensive and complicated .machin-
cry, can now be produced at moder-
ate cost by machines OF small horse
power.
THE Suess machine consists of a re-
servoir in the shape OF a knarsack,
which is carried on the miners back.
This reservoir IS filled with liquid air,
three to four quarts being sufficient for
two hours The apparatus is connected
by two tubes to respiratory mask
fixed in front of the mouth of the min
er. SO he may readily inhale the liquid
air. The resery yoir containing the liquid
air has an alarm clock attached to it.
which warns the miner when the two
hours have elapsed. 1t is claimed that
the invention has produced very good
results, and. at some of the mines lab
oratories for the manufacture or liquid
nir are being erected in order that the
management may always be prepared

TO STUDY DYING ALEurs.
Archaeologist JocheIson Goes to Con
tinue Work in kamchatka.

Scientific men throughout the world
are interested in the expedition on
| which DR. Waldemar Jochelson, noted
archaeologist and ethnologist, starts
Monday from New York, his destina-
| ton being Kamchatka and the Aleu-
tian Islands.
DR.. Jochelson, who has done much
work for the American Museum of
Natural History since 1901, is making
the present expedition for the Acad-
emy Of Sciences of st. Petersburg, and
expects to be gone two years He
Will be accompanied by his wife, who
assists him in his scientific work.
In the Morris *. Jesup North At
lantic expedition it was found that in
prehistoric times there was a distinct
relationship between the North
American Indians and the tribes of ST.
beria The forthcoming work of DR..
Jochelson among the Aleuts will be
somwhat supplementary to that done
by the Jesup expedition. for it is be-
lieved that evidence of chronological re-
l1tionsrir between the tribes can be
much strengthened by further investi-
cation.
According to DR.. Jochelson there are
at present only about 1000 AIeuts in
the Aleutian Islands, which belong to
the United States, and in komon-
dorski, which is Russian territory.
The race is rapidly dying out, and for
that reason the Investigations about to
be made are considered Of exceptional
value. as it is only a question Of COM
paratively short time before such JIM
vestigation would be impossible.

There is a definite story unfoided, in
which Irma and her companion travel

Reeds descriptions are so skilfully
blended into the course of events that
the whole book becomes a most sue
cessful exposition of Italian life and

of an Italian trip will yield nearly as
much pleasure to the girl reader as it
did to the girl traveller.
