À "Fanciful" Propositon:

An

He (M. Duroquier) tries to prove that the Volturno was set on fire, that warships were blown up at Toulon, and that the cool- mine at Cardiff-in which over 400 men lost their lives-was BI ploded, all by aerial waves from the great wireless Bending stations. The French writer says at the outset. "Beware the elec Irio waves that are born of the storms or sent out by wireless Lelegraph.

unlooked-for meeting with these travellers that leap over the seas with the speed of light, that cross gich other in space and penetrate to the bowels of the deapest mines, may bring disaster. The man who atters this warning has con ducted some interesting olectricalTM› experiments in bis laboratory at Anobe, and though he was -ob- viously made out a very strong case to the ordinary observer, it is not surprising to find that other scientists take a different view. Edison calls it "fanciful,'

Prof. Ecoles is of the opinion that it is absurd, while Marooni ox- perta, although declaring that it has no soientific basis, do not explain away, as they might have done, the mass of evidence pre sented by M. Duroquier in the French scientific mag zine, La Nature.

Developments in Sanitation` on

Board Ship.

The supply of sanitary water," continues the article from whe we gather these facts, is undo: control from the engine-room, by means of a control-valve, which rendere unnecessary a large roservoir on the boatdeck, where it is always desirable to cconomies oight. It substitution of the force of gravity afforded by auch tank, it is arranged thet, the sanitary pump in the ongine-room will maintan a pressure of about 55 lbs. in the supply-pipe at all times. This ensures a minimum pressure at the boat-deck of at least 5 lba. In order that this supply shall be mantained and not exceeded, there is fisted, with communication to the supply-pipe near the pump, a control-valve of the piston type, so that the rise and fall of pressure in the pipe raises or lowere. the piston of the valve, and thereby cuts off or admits steam to the sanitary pumps. The cold-water supply for lavatory and similar purposes

South China Morning Post.

Moral Sonse and Common Sense, After the startling rapidity. with which ovents moved in Mexico during the latter part of last month, the strange dearth of news from Niagara Falls regarding the progress of peace negotiations is all the more remarkable, but it seems that in peace as well as in war, the United States has the advantage over Mexico as the American delegates are in direct touch with their President by means of a private telephone while the representatives of General Haerts have to rely upon telegraph lines which are subject Co. to frequent interruption. No

news has been received concern- ing the reception accorded to the delegation sent by General Carranza to formulate, bia 'demands," but it is dopbtful if either America or Mexico, will extend to it a very cordial wel- come; the former because Car ranza is to be likened to a serpent which was warmed in the administration's · bosom, and turned and bit it, and the latter for obvious reasons.
