The pra-t1cal tut-ven achieved with the ganollne propelled motor stPlgh on the Sliu kle'on aud ChHrcot polar expedition ban prompted Captain Scott to include a vehicle of this type for Lid fortbcouiiug dnxb to the nuutb pole. This jfblcle Is. however, dis tinctly different from the motor sleighs hitherto used, to the two previous cases the front of the car was mount ed on runner or skates, a chain and sprocket with spudB.wbk.-b gripped the snow atuTii-e being Otted at the posi tion occupied by the wheels In the or dinary motorcar. In the new sleigh, however, what may be termed an adaptation of the pedrall or caterpillar system has been resorted to. which Imparts a greater degree of efficiency FED RAH. MOTOR BLED. to the vehicle and enables It to sur mount obstacles and to travel over rough Ice and suow wltb ease. In view of the conditions prevailing aud the work It Is Intended to fulfill in the south polar regions, tne engine is .or a special type. It comprises four verti cal cylinders, cast In pairs and devel oping twelve brake horsepower. .-. "The sleigh Is fitted with a runner, upon which bear' the rollers of the chain. The. latter, passing between this runner and. the ground, supports the whole vehicle and propels It as the wheels revolve." There are no brakes provided, as the big reduction ratio of the worm renders It completely Irre versible, so that brakes are not neces sary.' Similarly steering gear Is dis pensed with, as such is not requisite, for in any open area, such as an lee field, steering Is not demanded. ' When it Is required to deviate to the right or left ropes attached to the front of the frame can perform this function. Turning sharp corners under these cir cumstances is admittedly exceedingly difficult but when working In its de signed sphere this drawback will not be Berious. as sharp turning can be generally avoided. , The sleigh has a substantial wooden frame, and underneath Is fitted a large undershleld, extending from end to end so as to present a perfectly smooth sur face to the snow. When the slelgb Is under way a curious fact Is observable. The chain where it ouches the ground appears to stand still while the sleigh slides over It. This Is the motion that actually takes place, for the top of the chain travels , forward . at twice the speed of the slelgb. - It, will thus be seen that in reality .the lower part of the chain in contact with the ground constitutes a surface over which the vehicle itself can move.- The driver has bis position on a box behind the engine, which seat forms a receptacle ; for tools.- spare Darts and other accessories. That the vehicle has great climbing power bus been con clusively proved, for It will ascend steep banks of earth and ride over seri ous obntacles easily and without any appreciable diminution In speed. Although this sleigh can, carry a party and full equipment, Us actual function Is fo act as a tractor for the haulage of ordinary sledges, the trail, ing vehicles carrying the loads. THE AGE OF HONESTY. ' r- .' . -' .: Man'a Criminality Lessens With the ' Advance of Years. Dr. Bertlllon opposes th? dictum that the opening of schools means the clos ing of prisons. He is readier to be lieve that the contrary Is true. He gives statistics showing that married men are steadier than others, especial ly when they have families, owing to their desire to be honored by their children. As showing the value of woman's control Dr. Bertlllon proves that widowers' criminality equals that of bachelors even when they . have children, while the criminality of child, less widowers is the highest 'of any class.:. " ;,, ' He gives women generally a good character.. He, says they are Incom parably less often criminal than men, and when they are criminals man Is usually at the bottom of the trouble. Man's criminality Is only considerable to the age of forty and decreases there after. Old ruffians are very rare. A Sweet Singer. .
