THE NEW POLAR

EXPEDITION.

THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH. WEDNESDAY, MAY 1, 1901.

cording to the same scheme on the Measi, James, San B. straits, discovered that the parallel wires could | Johnson, J. be shortened, provided they were terminated by earth plates of the sea itself. N

We take the following account of the new In December, 1899, it became desirable to ship Discovery front a recent Daily Mail: establish comunication between.the islands or rocks known as the Skerries and the mainland The Discovery is one of the finest ships that of Anglespy in North Wales, and it was deter have ever been constricted for Polar explor-mincudo this by wireless telephony, A ation. Under the supervision of Mr. R. Pater wire 50 yards in length was erected along the sen, of the Dundee Shipbuilders Company, Skerries and on the mainland one of three and and periodically of the chief officers of the expedition, she has been built in a yard which has great traditions in the way of Polar ships, and it is indeed a curious circumstance that she is the second of her name which has been made there.

Her predecessor' went north wards to the other Pola.

She is unique because no other British ship has ever been built in this way specially for Aatarctic exploration. In the first place, this boat, which is costing £50,000, and which, from the scientific and practical" point of view, is worth every penny of it, is made entirely of wood, while a necessary condition of her construction was that she should be far stronger than any ordinary navigating boat, and should be able to withstand extraordinary pressure from ice that would crush up a common trad- ing vessel like a match box.

NO IRON ALLOWED.

Iron was barred for the simple reason that in the very fore front of the expedition's pro- gramme is magnetic survey work of an import ant description, as the result of which it is trusted that navigation in the far Southern seas will in the future: be much assisted. It is certain that at prescht iron ships in these waters sail many miles out of their way, and an iron exploration ship would be useless for such work, The magnetic pole must be wooed in a wooden craft. Geographical discovery and geological and biological investigation are also important among the expedition's objects, but to the commercial mind it is probable that the one first named will appeal with the most force.

There was then, a problem presented in which a ship was to be made of wood, and so made that she would be stronger and safer than any sheathed in iron plates, and it has been very satisfactorily solved. Nine feet of solid oak in the Discovery's stem provide the solution in the all-important forequarters, and the sides all the way round are two feet six inches in thickness, of oak also-not ordinary oak, but grand stuff, grown. in Scotland itself and picked with care for its very special purpose. Bulkheads of unusual strength'stretch across from side to side,.ao that when the terrible ice pressure is at its worst the defence. may be positively all that is possible in wond.

half miles from a point opposite the Sker ries to Cemlyn. Each line terminated in an earth plate, immersed in the sea, and the average distance between the parallel portions of the two wires was 18 miles. Telephonic communication was readily maintained, and the service thus established has been in con stant operation ever since, Last summer further experiments were made with the Preece system of wireless telephony between Rathlin. island on the north coast of Ireland, and the mainland, where oral messages were readily sent over a distance of four miles.

Sir William Preece has demonstrated that the distance through which a telephonic message can be sent is practically infinite, provided the parallel wires are sufficiently extended. Thus the length of the wires in order to send a mes sage any desirable distance proved the first obstacle against the system being employed on all occasions. Recently, however, be is said to have overcome this difficulty, partly by the substitution of induction coils for straight wires, so that where before it was necessary to stretch wires in parallel lines for 1,500 yards, the same wires in coil now reach less than 50 feet, while communication is possible when the distance between them is increased to nearly five miles. A perfected form of the induction system is now being employed in an apparatus which Sir William Preece is making, which will enable vessels at sea to communicate with cacti other, even though widely separated.

BOER HORSEMANSHIP,

During the past few years Englishmen have become aware that they have something yet to learn in regard to horsemanship. The Ameri- can jockeys with thoir ungainly seats have won races on horses which previously had never been returned winners, and in another branch of the art of riding we are now learning some. thing from the Boers. Mr. Herbert Mackford contributes a very interesting article to the Field

on the Boer as a horseman, and the lucidity with which he expresses his views shows that he has attentively studied the peculiarities of the Boer in the saddle. The chief ends of riding have been well-defined as two-to remain in the saddle and to spare the horse. The Boer maintains his position in the saddle by balance. He does not affect an upright seat, and his stirrups are so short that his knees and hose are often very close together, while his feet are stuck right home in the stirrup frons and at right angles. to the harse's body! His horse is perfectly trained, and the Boer and his mount being in complete uni- son the one with the other, make the rider a very formidable foe, Moreover, he is quite familiar with the diseases with which horses are troubled in Sputh Africa, and his acquain- tance with, the, horse is only equalled by his ability with a team of oxen.Mr. Mackford says that the adage "he who fights and runs away" has been handed down for generations, aid it is this and his discretion, knowledge of the country, and his skill as a horse man and teamster that render the Boar so difficult to overcome. During the past year we have learned that many English Ideals which we have regarded as unimpeachable have to be relinquished, and it would seem as if our mounted troops are trained to be skilful in acts which are non-essential to successful warfare. We may ridicula the Boer seat, and his figure in the saddle. may resemble poor Mr. Briggs, as John Leech pourtrayed him, tasting the pleasures of bunting, but is not his skill as a horseman another case of the foolish thinge confounding the mighty?

DEVELOPMENT IN WIRELESS TELEPHONY.

A recent number of Le Figaro contained an article by M. Emile Gautier, which, after stat- ing that "the first step has been made toward the discovery of wireless telephony" pro ceeded to give an account of the experiments recently conducted by a' M. Maiclie, who "is now able to transmit speech through the earth for the distance of 1,000 or 1,200 yards. The

claim of M. Gautier has caused the appearance of several compcations in the European prass which show that the first step was actually taken some, time ago, and that now, as a result of the recent experiments made by Sir William Frecce under the auspices of the British general post odide, it is possible to tele phone without wires or a distance of four miles.

THE NEW FRENCH REMEDY,

THERAPION:

This succesful and highly popular remedy, as employed in the Continental Hospitals by Ricard, Rastan, Joben, Velpeau, and others, combines all the desiderata to be sought in a medicine of the land, and surpasses everything hitherto employed.

1

THERAPION No. 1, in a few days only, removes all discharges from the urinary organs, effectually superseding infections, the use of which does irreparable harm by laying the foundation of stricture and other serious dis eases. In dysentery, piles, irritation of the lower bowel,, cough, bronchitis, atiluna, and- some of the more trying complaints of this kind, it will be found astonishingly efficacious, affording prompt relief where other well-tried remedies have been powerless

THERAPION No. 2 for impurity of the .blogd, scurvy, pimples, anots, blotches, pains. and swellings of the joints, secondary symp toms, discase of the bones, sore throat, and áll diseases for which it has been too much a fashion to employ mercury, sarsaparilla, &c, to 'the destruction of the sufferer's teeth and rùís- of health. This preparation purifies the whole system through the blood, and throughly eliminates every poisonous matter from the body,

THERAPION No. 3, for nervous exhaustion, waste of vitality, and all the distressing con- sequences, arising from early error, excess, residence in tot, unhealthy climates, &c. It posses'surprising power in restoring strength. and your to the debilitated.

THERAPION may be procured of the prin cipal Chemists and Merchants throughout the world, Price in England 2/9 and 4/6. In order ing the purchaser should state which of the three numbers he requires, and observe that the word “THENARIONTM appears on the Govern-, ment, Stamp (in white letters on a red ground) affixed to every genuine package by order of Her Majesty's Hon.
