WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY FOR NORTH POLE Waits; Wellmaa WUI Stake Baas, for Vole and Install tie Wireless Tele graph as Means - of Oonununloatlo. Mr. Walter Wellman, the widely dis tinguished explorer, is about to make another attempt to reach the north pole, wlfen making preparations for hi perilous expedition he -was quick-, to realise the - benefits to be "derived " in many ways from an installation of wire less telegraphy. Every one who makes a dash for the north pole across those unexplored and treacherous seas of ice. whence so many have gone never to re turn, takes his life in hla hands, and It is not difficult to imagine the sense of seourlty end safety which these men will feel when they know that by the touch of a key a meaaage will be flashed to their friends and, fellow- citizens 1n their own country end they will be ad vised of happenings at home by the ssme means. For centuries past at tempts have been made to reach the north pole, and so fsr every expedition has met' with defeat and has turned back after having Buffered untold hard ships arid privations. Many of the ex peditions have never returned, but who can say what would have, been the re sults it they had been provided with means of communicating with the civilised world? Relief expeditions woulqhave been fitted ou and sent to rescue these daring men; helpless In the clutches of ice and snow, and thess relief expeditions, similarly equipped with wireless apparatus, would have ex perienced no difficulty In tracing and rescuing their countrymen. Nearly every country of the world has sent ex ploring parties Into this unknown . land. but those who have called from Mhe United States have met with' the most success.- As above stated. Mr. Well- man Is very confident of a. successful termination to his present - hazardous undertaking, and who can conceive of the honor which will - be accorded to the country by every nation of the civilised world in the event of his suc cess T The north 'pole discovered by an American -cltlsen, and the Tlrat news of Its fllsoovery flashed by means of sn American invention, the DeForest wireless telegraph.
