-London.-An invention which, when
fully developed, promises to reform
war has been given a successful test
off Portsmouth. Although the adj
mtralty has attempted to keep the mat
ter secret, it is now definitely known
that a mine attached to the bottom of
the British cruiser Terpsichore was
exploded at a distance Of eight miles
by wireless impulse.
Some weeks ago the Terpsichore, a
third class cruiser Of 3,4OO tons dis
placement, 300 feet long and forty
three feet beam, was taken into dry
dock, where dockyard hands attached
metal box to her bottom. The cruiser
was towed to Stokes bay. Her water
tight compartments were then closed
and all members Of the crew left the
ship.
A few moments later the Terpsichore
half rose out of the water amidst a
vast upheaval of water. She at once
took heavy list to port and five dock
yard tugs came to her assistance. keep
ing her afioat with their pumps while
they towed the sinking cruiser into

they had formed a part. Hitherto all

searches established the fact that such

nitely.
AS this discovery became more
familiar to the Investigator it was dis
covered that a constant relation ex-
listed between the rate of growth of
the cell and the composition of the

This fact, DR.. Carrel now announces,
indicated that certain cell phenomena
Of the higher animals. such as multi

now be investigated profitably. At first
blocked by lack Of proper method. this
investigation has now become pos
stble through the discovery Of tech

nective tissue to multiply indefinitely

That would seem to mean that this re-
search Is advancing toward the discov-
cry of some means of postponing the
approach Of old age.
But DR.. Carrel says nothing of the
sort. He confines himself to rigidly
detailed statement of experiments.
The results of this series of re-
searches have the interest that they
prove conclusively that DR.. Carrel has
taken yet one more step toward the
goal of his inquiry. His earlier reports
established the sufficiently startling
fact that the death Of the gross organ
Ism by no means entailed the simulta-
neous death Of the component parts.
The first conclusion reached was the
proof of life after death-the survival
of the CELL The later investigation has
esta blished a knowledge of the charac-
teristics of the growth of connective
tissue.
This has led to new result-the In
definite proliferation Of strain of
connective tissue cells outside Of the
organism. The strain of connective
tissue originally obtained from frag-
ment Of chicken embryo heart. which
had been pulsating in the test tube for
104 days. was still actively alive after
sixteen months Of independent life and
more than 100 passages. The rate Of
pr0lfferatfon of the connective tissue
sixteen months old equaled and even
exceeded that OF fresh connective it's
sue taken from an eight day old en-
bryo.
ut appears, therefore . DR.. Carrel
reports. that time has no effect on the
tissues isolated from the organism and
preserved by means Of the technique
described. During the sixteenth month
of life in vitro the cells increased rap
idly in number and were able In
short time to produce a large quantity
