Experiments have recently been
made at Toulon with shells intended
to illuminate the sea at a distance
from the land, thus disclosing the
presence and movements OF an enemy
at night. The shells are made to ex
plode at a great height, and to give
light for a sufficient time to permit an
examination OF the surface OF the
sea for several miles from the shore,
The officers in charge OF the expert
ments regard the Illuminating shells
as more effective than search-lights In
disclosing the position of hostile ships
Another form Of shell has been
proposed. which shall. in bursting
over the sea. spread a cloud of thick
smoke about the batteries on shore.
thus preventing their seeing the ap-
preaching ships, and rendering the
Illuminating shells useless.

II has been suggested that the big
game Of Africa should be systematical
" exterminated In order to abolish
the "hy fever" by destroying the prin-
cipal means OF nourisbment OF the
tsetse. In regard to this suggestion
Sir David Bruce says that while II Is
true that the tsetse disappears when
he big game is killed OF. there are
other African diseases similar to the
iy disease which are not spread by
the tsetse. Although civilization
and big game cannot exist together, .
he thinks that the proposed wholesale
destruction ali over Africa would be
quite unjustiflable. AS the new coun-
try is divided OF into farms. the big
game must go. but the process should
be gradual one. applied only as the
exigencies demand. For at least a
thousand years to come there ought to
be room in Africa for big game re
serves.
