reaction setting in now that the mendacions character of the re- poi te industriously published in order to stimulate this martial ardour is slowly being realised, and the last great hope of the Wir Lords seems to lie in the "measure of success they are able to achieve in their efforts to inspire the German people with afanstical. hatred of their foor, and of England especially. We can only hope that the people of Germany will recognise the in- evitable long before three years are ever, and, by compelling their War Lords to submit, save the Cuntry, from the greater euffer ing and misery which must result f.om the potrection of struggle which can lave but one istue, and that is the final and complete haatrution of the cherished sima of Prussian militarism.

China Mail. German Experiments

· With Aircraft. Some experimente repotted rerently as having been made in Germany appear to indicate a. direction in which aircraft may become an actul source of danger to even the most formidable battleship or cruiser. According to an article in Engineering" to band a Zeppelin has been, with complete success, recently fitted with means of discharging a Whitehead tcredo. We may presume that the airship is close to the s63- brought down; level, and then fires the t rped just as is done from the deck inbe of a torpede-boet. In view of the great range of the modern torpado at the present day over 2 miles. -this form of attack car not be ignored. It is evident that what in possible to the airship in this direction is also possible to the Telephone No. 1683 aeroplane, provided that the latter-

be built of sufficient carrying CO.

Capacity and whereas the air- ship would find it difficult to HONGKONG.

apruch a battleship or cruiser within 2 miles without detection and deat nation, the ther plane would rarely find thier either difficult or dangerous; the matter is mainly one f choosing the proper time and direction of attack.
