These Danger Spots, Krom the Avla tors Viewpoint, Are Born of the Al most Instantaneous Variations In thf Force of the Aerial Currents. Since man bu provided himself wltb pings he has learned more astonishing things about the air thnn were dream ed of In his eld philosophy, lie has bad to letirn them In order to malce traveling safe on his new aerial high way. The wind was almost a complete mystery until aeronauts began to malto closo acquaintance with Its strange moods and vagaries. Tho startling ex perleuces of aviators have stimulated the nnemometrlsts 1. e.. the wind measurers to fresli Investigations wblcb have had surprising results. Consider, for instance, those things wblcb have been found out by tho Aerotechnlc Institute of the University of Paris: If two anemometers (wind measiir rrs) nre placed side by side about sev enty-two feet above the ground when a wind of from thirty three to forty eight feet per second Is blowing the most remarkable differences In the ve locity of the wind nre observed. If tin; anemometers are only ten Inches apart both usually show nearly the huiim wind velocity, but If the distance bo twecn them Is Increased to about tliir ty-two Inches one will sometimes sho a wind velocity of ten feet per second more rapid than that shown hy the .other. Itut this difference lusts only for an Instant. If tho distance be twenn thejineiiioinotors Is Increased te twenty-three or twenty-four feet, the usual length of tin aeroplane, the dlf ferenees in file velocity of the wind shown by them are occasionally enor mous, but of very brief duration This must clearly produce a racUIng effect upon an aeroplane, which may be dls nstrous, for one end of It may for e second or so experience a reslstanci double that felt ut the other end. But this Is by no means all. Not only does the wind vary In this capricious fashion at places a few feet or a few yards apart, but It varies with equal violence nnd suddenness at the same point, as Is proved by fixing a slnglp anemometer at a heluht of seventy Ave or eighty feet above tho ground nnd observing the successive changes In Its Indications of velocity. Thus it has been found that a wind whose, av erage velocity was about thlrty-hl feet per second maintained that ve loclty for as much as ten successive seconds nnd then In n second and a half dropped to less than fourteen feet perj,econd, which It maintained during! two seconds, after which In the course of half a second It sprang up to a" ve loclty of fifty feet per second! It main tallied the last mentioned velocity fr only ii single second. In another case the velocity of Un wind rose In thr-e-itiiirters of a second from twenty -six and one quarter feel to fifty-seven nnd one-half feet per sec oud. Considering these facts. It Is no won der that aviators meet with strnnse accidents by running Into what the) call "holes In the nlr," for the sustain ing force of the air, on ne-oiiut of the sudden variations of the wind, may almost Instantly lose half Its value and then with equal suddenness recover, or moro thiiii recover, its former power Such things enable any one to under stand the peculiar perils that the ti via tor has to face. Even ordinary mortals know that tho wind Is capricious, but to the navigator of the air It becomes sometimes a very demon, or a leglou of demons, whose eccentric gambnlliigis are as uncontrollnble as they are uuei pected. It took thousands of years for sea men to learn how to face with un flinching henrts the vagaries of the ocean waves and currents and for shipbuilders to devise vessels that could defy them, but It fcenis likely that we In a few decades shall have mastered tins -caprices of the n nuns pbere and have produced airships that will safely ride the wildest wind It Is the advance of science Unit liar giveu us the great advantage which we possess over our predecessors In over coming uature's obstacles, hut In Increase of knowledge would not have served us if there hud been decrease of courage. That there has been no auch decrease Is proved every day by the daring 'feats of avlators.-Unrrett P. Bervlss In New York Journal How Kaffirs Work.

ON EVE OF BIG EXPERIMENTS With Bigger Machines He Hopes Soon to Bb Able to Make It Possible to Carry on a Conversation Between London and Ireland Working oh Wonderful New Instrument. William Marconi expects to telephone across the Atlantic In the nenr future, possibly within six months. This state ment ho mado to the New York Times' London correspondent, nt the saiuo time denying the report which bus fre quently cropped up in the last few months that be bad succeeded lu talk ing across the Atlantic. "Somo newspaper accounts of my ro cent experiments in Italy," he said, "wero very funny. Here Is one that says I succeeded in talking over n dls tunce of moro tbnii -1,000 miles. As a matter of ftict, we talked by wireless over a distance of slightly more than forty-flvo miles, wblcb was all we ex pected and knew we could do wltb Uio apparatus we wero using. New Telephone Apparatus. "We were experimenting with brnnd now apparatus on wblcb I began work only three mouths ago nnd which seems very simple and very practical. We did not intend It to work over big dlstnnccs. It was not tried over long distances; in fact, I know it would not work much over forty-five miles. The same type of apparatus would have worked over longer distances, but what wo were after was not long dls tance records, but reliability rellabll Ity first Wo were very much gratl fled by the results. "The first nnd severest test was twelve hours' continuous tnlhtng not U by one mini, of course. The twolvo nours talk was provided by several men and a phonograph working In re lays. "The new apparatus is more practi cal, simpler nnd less likely to get out of order thnn anything we have had heretofore. "I think transatlantic telephony will tie done soon. I think there Is no Im- ousslblllty about it. To Talk Across Irish Sea. ''We are building some larger nnd more powerful machines, and now expect soon to be able to carry on ex periments In long distance wireless telephony over 200 or 300 miles. The station at Cllfden will, I hope, be do ing It soon. We hope soon to talk be tween Ireland and London If evenj thing doesn't get smnshed up over Ul ster and prevent the experiment. The station at Carnarvon, Wnles. will also soon be experimenting wltb long dls tance -wireless telephony over n mini mum of fiOO miles. "1 am also working on a still bigger machine, the object of which Is to send transatlantic wireless telegraph and telephone messages both on the snmc machine. "The commercial possibilities of transatlantic telephony, 1 think, will not bo nearly so great as those of transatlantic wireless telegraphy at least, not at present. You see. at most we cannot fall; more than 100 words a minute over the telephone, whereas we can send UOO words a minute by wire less telegraph." To Each Age Its Problems. It Is not enough that wo leave our Institutions as our fathers shaped them. They knew little or nothing of the con. dltlons which we face. Siilllclent unto tho ago Is the work thereof. It is not the right of any generation to project Its will Into the future, but It Is the duty of each generation to udjiwt Its Institutions to meet Its own needs. Men need not watt until denth to reallzo runny of their Ideals. They can hnvo things here on earth which their fathers associated with the millennium. They need no longer overwork nor go cold nnd hiingVy nor sufTer from pesti lence or even famine. Machinery has provided the possibilities of u new life. When all of these possibilities are real izedwhen no one Is overworked, cold or hungry, when all are leading Joyous, purposeful Uvea adjustment will bo complete wclfnro will bo universal.
