creased since the war began. Part OF

the curious way in which the human
frame reacts to excitement and de-

 His researches in the study of light and his invention eof the instrument known as the sinterferorneter.'' for measuring the length of light waves. were awarded the Nobel physicians prize for that amount.
 Professor Michelson is head of the physics department of the University of Chicago, where he has been a mem ber Of the faculty since the foundation of the institution. 1892 During his ac- Itivity at the university he has been the recipient of many honors, both here and abroad. for his researches.
 The importance of Professor Michel sons discoveries regarding light can be appreciated from the statement made by William Ha11ock, professor of phys ics in Columbia university, also very well known for physical research work.
 If we are ever to have interplanetary connmunication,' said Professor Hal- lock. t'it will be by means of Michel son's discovery of the length of the light waves. He has determined through his interferometer that the wave length of all light is the same throughout the universe It is the one unit of measurement. for instance, that on the earth.
 Professor Nicholson received the de- gree of doctor of laws from Yale uni- versity and that of doctor Of science from Cambridge university, in Eng I land. He is member of the National Academy of Sciences, the American Academy of Sciences, the American Society For the AdYanc ement of Sci ence the British society of the same name and the international commission of weights and measures.

Germans.
 The idea has been received with en- the ancient theory of feminine weak ness and declare that their sex is fully as fit to face peril as the men.
 The aviators have proved themselves one of the most valuable factors in the war. There is a great need Of more Of them, and it is impossible to train them in a hurry. This is one or the strongest reasons urged in favor Of using the many skilled women avia- tors in the fighting.
 The Princess ShakFevskaya who has won fame as an aviator. has gone to the front She will join General Rem nenkampff's army operating in East Prussia
 So far as known the princess is the only woman aviator in service in the war She is the first woman aviator to receive 2. commission for war serv- ice from the Russian government The princess application for a commission was rejected at first because of the fear that should she be captured by the Germans they might shoot her as a spy.
 The princess learned to fly in Ger many. She has visited New York.
 The suggestion has actually appear ed in print that Lady Victoria May Pery. daughter of the Earl of Liner ick. should become chief of a British royal feminine flying corps.
 Lady Victoria is one of the most flashing and certainly the prettiest of English women aviators. She was trained in aviation by Grahame- White and the late Gustav HameI, in whose company she looped the loop In a most daring manner. HameI was eventually killed while doing this trick.
 It is not likely. however, that Lady Victoria will take the suggestion and join the fighting aviation corps, for she has gone to the United States and there become the bride Of James c. Brady. We have probably not yet reached the point where bride will interrupt her honeymoon to go off to the war, after the fashion of the Ger man submarine captain who left his bride of the day before to steam away and blow up three British yvarships.
 One of the most daring of women aviators is Mile. Helene Dutrieu of France. She was theN first woman to perform the loop the loop trick that death defying stunt that made mems blood stand still when they first saw man do it. Mile. Dutrieu did it as coolly and cIeverly as any man.

 engines for the heavy siege guns. And in all this colossal train not a wheel
 squeaked. not an accident delayed the
 forward progress.
 The eflcfency of the Red Cross de- partments IS best indicated by the fact that in following the German army for a Hundred miles over battledelds, at times only few hours behind the fighting none of the small group of correspondents discovered $ wounded German soldier uncared for or any dead

the fact that correspondents with bi- cycles and carriages found it difneult to keep up with the German advance. Daily marches of fifty kIlometers were the usual thing, and at times they greatly exceeded that distance.
 In addition to the immense armies already in the field. Germany still is able to draw on her great mass, of re- serves to send an army Of 24o.00U men to re-enforce the hard pressed Aus trian army in Galicia and Poland At the same time she is sending 200. 900 men to re-enforce her army in East Prussia f

 'sWhatever deterioration there may be in the material now being drafted into the ranks of our enemy 1t must be admitted that the Pruasian war machine, acting on a nation previously inured to the sternest discipline has obtained the most remarkable results.

 The first mobilization csu on Aug. i included all the above classes, a total of 2,400000 trained soldiers.
