HUMPERDINCK' ON THE WIRELESS
THE B.B.C. struck out an original
line in broadcasting Humpor- dinck's beautiful oporn, "Konigskin- der" ("The Children of the King")- Years ago Sir John Martin Harvey appeared in London in this as a play, of course and Humperdinck wrote incidental mosle for it, even tually turning it into an operazo difficult It has rarely been heard.

I may even be that the transmission of power over moderate distances may be developed in the not far distant future.

In a Gale
Dealing with the adventure of twenty-eight years ago, he said that it was on November 26, 1901, that he sailed from Liverpool to carry out experiments in Newfoundland with a receiving aerial supported by n balloon or a kite. They landed at St. John's on December 6, and the experiment took place on Dec. cniber 12 in a gale.
"Up till then," he said, "I had nearly always used a receiving ar rangement, including a coherer, which recorded Automatically signals through a relay, and a Morse Instrument.
"In the records of laboratories of psychology are accounts of indivi- | duals whose tasto sensations got mixed with sounds or with sensa- tions of colour; of individuals whoae amell sensations called up scenes; of still other persons whom sounds made to feel pain or whom pain made to hear imaginary sounds. Apparently nearly every possible mixture of one senas with the other has been detected in at least one abnormal individual."

These two cadio men, Robert Eustice (left) and C. G. Forbes, operators on the 8. 8. Fort Victoris, drew much praise for their cool- ness and constancy of service at their keys when their craft was rammed by the S. S. Algonquin during a dense fog in the lower New York Bay. Several investigations as to the cause of the crash have been started The Fort Victoria sank in about sixty feet of water.
