WARTIME SIGNALS.
Clever Device That Was Used by

A Clever Device That Was used by
the Ancient Romano.
In view Of the varied and scientific
signal methods used In modern war
fare description Of the ancient sig
mailing methods found In the writings
of PoiybIus will prove Of interest.
This writer had observed the opera
tions of the Roman generals before the
fall Of Carthage In 146 B. @. and says
they provided their signal stations with
earthenware vessels, exactly equal in
all respects and fitted with cocks which
allowed the water to escape at the
same rate. They were carefully test
ed to make sure Of the last require
ment. Corks of smaller diameter than
the vessel were foated In them, bear
ing rods, upon which were marked at
distance Of three fingers apart the
simplest and most urgent military mes
sages. They were uSed as follows:
The sending station raised torch.
The receiving station, seeing 1t, did
likewise This was signal for both
stations to open the corks Of their wa
ter jars. When the rod at the sending
station had sunk so that the desired
message appeared at the edge Of the
jar another torch was raised, and the
receiving station shut Off its cork and
read the message on the rod, marked
identically with that at the sending
station.--Detroit Free Press.
