Whereas on the eleventh day of March, 1915, We did by Our Royal Proclamation of that date make certain additions to the list
of articles to be treated us con- traband of war; and
Whereas it is expedient to make certain farther additions, to and amendments in the asid list: Now, Therefore, Wo do hereby declare, by and with the advice of Our Privy Council, that during
the continuance of the war, or antil We do give further public notice, the following articles will be treated as absolute contraband in addition to those set out in Our Royal Proclamations afo:e- mentioned:
:
A postcard has been received in the Colony from Mr: A. E. Hyndman, written from the French front, which states that

that the Italian scientist has invented an apparatus which will enable the observer to see through a Eft, wall!
The exploits imagined by Leage in Le Diable Boitenx are in a fair way to being put in the shade by Marconi, from whom alls nad ceilings and roofs will con be able to hide no secret,
I naturally wanted to know whether Marconi could with the eye of his apparatus look into a German submarine. M. Lazare Weiller held up his hand sin dis- may at my audacity.

These are secrets which Mar- coni alone can reveal. Bat one thing is certain: wireless tele- graphy and wireless "telephony are playing an ever more import- sat role in the war of the nations. The most remarkable feats of the British and German submarines could not have been performed
without them."
