WASHINGTON SHAFTS APEX.
Few Peonle Know tie Purpose of the
Parallel Iron Bands.

Few persons who have seen the
Washington monument, even those
who have lived within sight of it all
their lives, have noticed that the
apex of the monument is surround
ed with parallel bands. Such is the
fact. however: and moreover, the
bands are studied with golden points.
The bands are made of gold-plated
iron a foot wide and the points are
spaced a foot from one another.
For a few moments in each sunny
day of the first week OF the new year
the golden fillet that binds the bro"
of the Washington monument is visi-
bic to human eyes. Then the angle
of incidence of the suns rays is such
that ther are reflected downward to
the windows of the buildings north
and west of the monument, and the
cool. gray surface is seen to be mark
ed with i shining lines of gold.
Theoretically. similar effect
could be obtained from some point OF
observation at each moment when
the suns rays are intercepted by the
sloping top Of the monument, but
only an airship could attain the
necessary vantage point.
According to the original plan OF
the monument, it was protected from
lightning by an aluminium tip that
was connected with the metal frame
work of the elevator. During the
very first summer after the monu-
mept vas completed, however, it was
struck twice and piece Of stone was
clipped from the top.
Experts from ali the scientific de-
rartmen;s OF the government were
called on to contrlIa plan for the
better protection of the shaft, and
they decided that copper bands,
studded with projecting points,
would accomplish the purpose. Col.
Casey. WHO had charge of the work,
obje, ted on the ground that copper
would turn green and that the YER
disris would run and spoil the ap-
pearance of the monument; he also
doubted that the copper would nave
the necessary teusile strength.
SO the men of sc!ence agreed on
number of iron bands. heavily gal
vanized and gold plated to prevent
rusting. The bands ore connected
With the ;luminum point Of the mon
ument and the framework Of the ele-
vatcr, and at the base iron cables
lead the electricity into deep we'll,
where it harmlessly eXpends its force.
The protection has proved to be per-

of this extraordinary invention the
more mysterious does it seem. 1t is
easier to say what it was not than to
imagine what it was. The known
facts about it are that it could be
used on either land or sea, against
navies, armies or fortresses; it was
so simple that it could be used by
unskilled people; it was so obvious
in it's application and operation that
anyone seeing it used once would
know all about it and be able to
WELD it.
What is this greatest of all de-
stroyers? 1t cannot be an airship,
a submarine, or a torpedo. Neither
can it be cannon nor an explosive.
The writer comes to the conclu-
sion that it was some mechanical,
electrical or chemical device such as
has never been hit upon by another,
and thus has never been put in prac-
tice."
The modern invention that seems
to approach most nearly to it is the
projectile devised by John Hays Ham
mond, Jr. This is a bomb, loaded
with thermit and chemicals, which,
when it. explodes, scatters molten
metal and poisonous gases. So hot
is the metal that it will cut through
armor plate as a hot knife cuts
through butter; so deadly are the
gases that every person within wide
radius must instantly drop dead.
This bomb would certainly justi-
fy what has been said of the horri-
bic effects of the Dundonald Destroy
er. But on the other hand it scarce
ly fulfils the condition of being so
simple that cnce used anybody could
use it. The molten metal sets on
fire everything with which it comes
in contact; the gas makes everybody
for many yards around fall dead, and
those over a still wider area are
temporarily paralyzed. Consequent
ly no one can come to put out the
fire started by the hell-hot metal.
Such a bomb dropped on the deck
of a battleship would make a hole
right through her, the molten metal
running down and into the sea. And
her crew would drop at their places
-corpses.
A few such bombs hurled into a
fortress would produce the silence
of death. a hail of such bombs up-
on a city would turn it into char
mel house in an hour
Dundonald's invention, now lock-
ed up in the British war office. was
not a t-prussic-acid-gas bomb,
but it seems as if it must have been
something of like nature.
The question now is: Will Great
Britain dare to shock humanity by
bringing this hellish device out to
the light and using it to annihilate
her enemy and so forever put an end
| to war?

THE ALASKA RAILROAD.
Providence Journal.) ]

Interest in the project of govern ment railroad to "tap the boundless wealth" of Alaska will be revived by the announcement that the route has been selected. Seward will be the coast point.
 That no mistake has been made in the choice may be believed; for the commission is composed of expericnc- ed engineers, including representa- tives of the army, which has already made a wonderful record in opening up Alaska and bringing it into com munication with the outside world Indeed, the trunk line railroad, now about to be built, may be regarded as only a detail to the splendid system of highways which the army en- gineers have been developing The railroad itself will need feeders of wagon roads and trails, if it is to be prosperous.
 In time to come, summer tourists to Alaska, whose itineraries are now usually limited to the southeastern archipelago, with Sitka or Juneau as stopping-off places, and the gIittering glories of Glacier bay as the final ob- jectives, may voyage west across the expansive Gulf of Alaska, enter Res urrection bay, disembark at Seward, and take the Woodrow Wilson ac- commodation for Fairbanks and way stations. The trip through and across the Alaska range to the valley on the other side, where Fairbanks lies, will offer spectacle grand and beautiful, in myriad forms. There are few mountain landscapes anywhere to compare with this ice-clad bulwark, from which rises the loftiest peak on American soil, Mount Mckinley.
