for purposes Of destruction. NJ Duroquier,
however, believes that this ship was not
the first one Destroyed by electric reso
nance, and he believes that more than one
great disaster may be attributed to this
canse.
He has found that the accidental repeti-
ton Of Hertzs experiment has become
quite common on account of the great
number Of resonators which are now scat
tered about along the paths covered by
the electric wave. 1t is only necessary
that this accident should occur in an in
hammable medium to produce a great dis
aster.
An Atlantic liner may be burnt up
under a thunder cloud or within the in
fuence of a wireless telegraph station if
merely few steel chains or box of nails
happen to be left in the overheated air of
a coal bunker A warship may be blown
up If some of the shells are placed close
together in badly ventilated ammunition
magazine. To blow up a dirigible balloon
it needs merely an imperfect contact or
mario W slit in the metallic armature OF its
covering. A disastrous explosion of gas
in a coal mine may occur If little coal
dust separates the steel car from its rails
in the mine.
When the HertziGn waves meet the con-
ductive bodies Of these chains, shells, me
tallic frame work, rails and cars, they prpA
duce by induction alternating currents
which give rise to the dangerous spark at
places where the bodies make an imper-
feet contact. ~

The policewomen were chosen on
account of their weight and muscle.
One of them, Mrs. Anna M. Morrison,
was an accomplished heavyweight
litter. Two of the policewomen, Mrs.
Anna M. touches and Mrs Mary A.
Boyd, made themselves particularly
unpopular by their roughness.

women had practised the well-known
'policeman's grip" on the arm, and
they used ii with excessive force and
temper on their prisoners. The
Mattresses complained that they
treated us lot worse than the men
cops There was general demand
among workingwomen for the aboa-
tion OF the policewomen.
AS a result OF this disturbance the
Chief Of Police said that the two
women "cops" would be transferred,

were transmitting simultaneously. He found
that he could obtain an explosion Of flask
filled with gases, as previously described,
at such times. After noting these facts he
studied the position Of his laboratory on
the map with regard to the two other wire
less stations. He found that it was at
exactly an equal distance from Rochefort
and Paris.
He then looked for other places on the
map where interference Of waves from
powerful wireless stations might create
dangerous zones of resonance He was
astonished to find that the middle point of
a straight line connecting the Eiffel Tower,
in Paris, and Bizerta, the largest French
wireless station on the North African
coast, marked exactly the site Of the naval
port Of Toulon, where three French war
ships have been blown up with great loss
OF life under very mysterious circum-
stances.
He then found that the middle point OF
line connecting the Eiffel Tower with
Clifden, the important station on the Irish
coast that sends wireless messages over
the Atlantic Ocean, was exactly over the
coal mines OF Cardiff, in Wales, which
we're recently the scene of a disastrous
and fatal explosion of coal gas.
He next observed that the middle point
Of a line connecting the Eiffel Tower with
Glaze Bay, the principal American wire.
less station, marked the exact spot where
the steamship Volturno recently caught
nre under mysterious circumstances.
He recommends that persons working or
carrying on business in the vicinity Of
wireless telegraph stations should avoid
keeping infiammable or explosive mate
rails or allowing infammable gases to ac
cumulate in cellars and other incIose6
places.

close it with paraffin plug. Through the
plug pass two long steel needles with
sharp and polished points, which almost
touch one another in the interior of the
globe. Then connect each Of the needles
to two long wires, which you pass to the
earth or suspend on posts in Numerically
opposite directions.
If you make this experiment on the day
Of a thunderstorm or If you operate in
the neighborhood of wireless telegraph
station you will not have to wait long be-
fore an inductiye wave will produce a
spark from the ends of the needles, ignite
the gases and cause the glass to blow up
with a loud explosion. 1t is easy to under.
stand that If large quantity of gas were

sion OF tremendous violence and destTuc-
tiveness might be produced in this way.

the wireless can light lamps at a distance
appears to- prove the possibility Of ignit-
ing infiammable substances at the same
distance.
NJ. Duroquier, the French expert re-
ferred to, has gone deeply into the rea-
sons why the wireless waves cause fires
and explosions. Electricians, he says, know
that the sudden discharge of an electric
spark is the source OF radiating energy
capable Of producing at great distance
upon devices called "resonators" powerful
vibratory movements, which in turn will
produce other sparks. This phenomenon
was observed for the first time by the
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1914-03-29

EXTRAORDINARY dangers to life and
Fl health are said TO have arisen as a
- result Of the powerful wireless tele-
graphic waves that are now flowing I'M
ceasingly around the world.
Franck Duroquier, French electrician
and wireless expert. has called attention to
some Of these dangers. He shows chat
the wireless or Hertzian waves produce
large sparks between pieces of metal
placed close together. These phenomena
may occur at many places within the in
aluence Of a wireless station. The sparks
are capable of setting fire to gases and
other inflammable material.
The disturbances are greatest at points
midway between two important wireless
stations. Thus he found that the spot
where the steamship Volturno mysteri-
Dusly burned was midway between the
stations Of Clifden, Ireland, and Glace Bay,
Newfoundland; that Cardiff, Wales, where
a disastrous explosion Of coal gas recently
occurred, was midway between Paris and
Clifden, and that Toulon. France. where
three French battleships have blown up,
is midway between the Eiffel Tower Paris,
and Bizerta, the great wireless station on
the Mediterranean.
William Marconl, the principal inventor
Of wireless telegraphy, has announced a
new device that appears to have an i'm
portant relation 10 these experiments. He
has invented an electric lamp that can
be lighted at distance OF six miles by
the wireless current
Mr.. Marconi says that this experiment
may be the forerunner Of the application
OF the wireless waves 10 power. fighting

When woman occupies the place Of
physical force she is naturally apt
TO be more violent and cruel than
man. History contains innumerable
instances Of this, from Jael in the
Bible, down to the female furies Of
the French Revolution and the Com
mune. Cleopatra and Catherine the
Great were examples of 1t. Legend
tells us Of Tamyris, Queen Of the
Massagetes, who treacherously slew
her chivalrous opponent, Cyrus, King
Of Persia. and kept his head in a bag
by her pillow as a memento OF her
triumph.
Women are more likely than men
to act hastily, to form snap judg-
ments, to confuse means and ends,
and to resort to tears when logic
fails. Physically, it shows itself in a
greater tendency to spasmodic effort
and more rapid exhaustion. Expert
ments with the dynamometer show
that women tend to reach their
maximum power at the first effort,
while men more often only attain
their maximum power at the second
or third effort.
Now It Is just these characters
tics that disqualify women from cop
ing successfully with situations that
policemen are so often called upon
to face. The police officer need not
be man Of exceptional intelligence,
but qualities essential to his success
are those of patience, poise and de-
liberation, as well as promptness
and certainty Of action. And It is
