WITH THE LUMBER JACKS IN WINTER THE LOGGERS THE LOGGERS AT WORK VOL. 28. NO. 8. WINT JA A TYPICAL YOUNG NORTHWESTERN LUMBERMAN ITH the lumber jacks in many sections of the United States the winter is the busiest season of the year, the harvest time, as were, and they work almost as energetically to "get out" the requisite number of logs during the interm of snow and lee does the farmer to get in the grain are the autumn rains in. Only to be sure the thru ITH the lumber jacks in many sections of the United States the winter is the busy season of the year, the harvest time, as it were, and they work almost as energetically to "get out" the requisite number of logs during the interim of snow and ice as does the farmer to get in his grain ere the autumn rains set in.

A season to embody less than five months of sledding, that is, five months of continuous snow and ice. bermen are not menaced by quite the same uncertainty as to weather conditions as is the farmer in autumn, for in many of the northern lumber camps it is almost unheard of for a season to embody less than five months of sledding, that is, five months of continuous snow and ice. In the logging regions of the Pacific Northwest, of course, where may be found perhaps the greatest of nature's lumber storehouses, the winter does not make the marked difference in the conditions that it does in the forests of some other sections of the country. In western Oregon and Washington there is so little snow, and that of such a transient character, that the lumbermen cannot depend upon it as they do elsewhere to help them with their work. But, on the other hand, the Puget Sound and Columbia River country is free from that severe weather which renders it imperative for lumber jacks elsewhere to constantly have a care lest they suffer from frostbitten hands and feet. Similarly in the south, where cypress knots and where much of the logging it done in swamps, the winter prescribes no change of method or equipment. READY FOR TIME LOGGERS for the twentieth century logging crews. In what we might term the traditional seats of the lumber industry, however, winter puts a very different face on the whole matter of getting out the logs and transporting them to the sawmills that transform them into the marketable form of the new large-scale logging. In Maine, in northern New York and Canada, in Minnesota, Wisconsin and the Dakotas the summer is in one sense a vacation season for the lumber jacks. At least it is an interlude of restricted activity and the lumbermen, unlike some other members of the community, welcome the passing of the long, bright days and the advent of the Ice King. The explanation of this state of affairs is found, of course, in the fact that snow and ice afford the material for the ideal arteries of communication in the lumber regions. The felled trees and the timbered forests are more economically over snow roads and ice trails than by any other method known to the industry. Indeed, there are lumber regions where without these factors—and their sequel, the "big thaw" in the spring—it would be virtually impracticable to get the timber to market at an expense that would justify operations. The snow and ice, important as is their aid, are more important that are now tending to make the lumbermen's jobs more productive in the fall and winter. Of late years a constantly increasing number of our lumbermen have been brought to see the wisdom of adopting what is known as conservative lumbering—that is, lumbering which treats a forest as a working capital whose purpose is to produce successive crops and which calls for work in the woods that will leave the standing trees and young growth as nearly unharmed as possible. Well, the minute a man becomes a lumberman, the old man he is certain to become an advocate of the old season as the proper time for carrying on all the operations of lumbering. To make this point clear it may be pointed out that the difference between practical work under ordinary methods of lumbering and under conservative lumbering is principally in the selection of the trees to cut, in the felling of these trees, and in the first part of their journey from the stump to the wood is an established fact that the warm, hard wood is the material depends considerably upon the season of the year when the work in the woods is carried on. Much less damage will result to the young growth THE APPEAL. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS. MINN., SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1912. A LOGGING LOCOMOTIVE AND CREW and to the trees left standing if the lumbering is done after the growing season over instead of being allowed to go on in the spring and summer while the bark is loose and the leaves and twigs are tender. Moreover, if there be a heavy blanket of snow on the ground, a tree, after it has been felled with ax or saw, stands a chance of crashing to earth with less damage than it would sustain at another season. The tree trunk that falls on a bed of snow is not likely to split or to break as would otherwise be the case when the forest monarch comes down on rocky, uneven ground. marvels one better. In principle, the ice and mobile is not very different from the ordinary commercial motors which are now employed in delivery work in every city. However, the s propelled adjunct of winter logging is provided with sharp teeth which sinks into the snow ice as it progresses, thus insuring steady pressure with no slipping or sliding on the snow surfaces. But because the winter finds the lumber is very busy in a temperature that ranges as as 20 to 40 degrees below zero it must not be posed that they do not find time and opportunity for plenty of fun in the isolated camps where they spend the season. A logging camp may be set where from five to twenty-five miles from nearest store and postoffice, but the "jacks" kept liberally supplied with fresh butter, fr meat, smoking and chewing tobacco, etc. graphophone or phonograph is an almost inable adjective of the isolated logging camp and lumbermen manage in one way and another get records of the latest song "hits" from time. The average logging camp has two main stair-arch comes down on rocky, uneven ground. After all, however, it is in the various stages of the transportation of the logs that the snow and ice yield the greatest aid. First of all it simplifies the operation of skidding or dragging the log lengths from the depths of the forest. This work was formerly done by horses, mules or oxen, and is yet to some extent, but for the most part the modern donkey engine has supplanted all other forms of energy for skidding. Supposedly the skidding operation is designed only to get logs out of the snow, while the log carrying vehicle could be operated without infinite trouble and damage to the standing timber. However, when the Snow King is in command it sometimes happens that a similar method may be employed for moving the logs to the rollway or storage yard, perhaps a mile or two distant, where the logs are held to await the spring freshets or are loaded aboard railroad cars that convey them to the mills. For this long-distance log trailing there is employed a more powerful type of engine than the donkey above referred to and a stronger wire cable is supplied. The pathway for the logs is an ley boulevard—kept in condition by "blooding" as circumstances require—and this becomes easier with the passage of the logs that it is practiced in the transport at each operation not merely a single log but whole "strings" of logs attached end to end by means of stout chains. At some lumber camps it is the practice to employ giant sleds to carry the logs on the first stage of their journey from the forest to the saw mill. Of course snow is requisite to the satisfactory operation of these sleds, but when a "path" has been worn for the sled runners along the icy roads the vehicles traverse the line thus furrowed with a facility suggestive of that with which a locomotive glides along the steel rails. There is, of course, a minimum of resistance to the progress of a sled along such a glazed surface and in many instances logs loads of almost incredible weight are thus transported over the glistening surface. A "new wrinkle" that characterizes districts consists of what the up-to-date logging districts consists of what are denominated an ice automobile for log harrow. Powerful traction engines have been used for some past on the Pacific Coast to draw trains of log-laden trucks out of the forest, but this new form of commercial motor vehicle goes even these marvels one better. In principle, the ice automobile is not very different from the ordinary commercial motors which are now employed for delivery work in every city. However, the self-propelled adjunct of winter logging is provided with sharp teeth which it sinks into the snow or, as it progresses, thus insuring steady progress, with no slipping or sliding on the smooth surfaces. But because the winter finds the lumber jacks very busy in a temperature that ranges as low as 20 to 40 degrees below zero it must not be supposed that they do not find time and opportunity for plenty of fun in the isolated camps where they spend the season. A logging camp may be anywhere from five to twenty-five miles from the nearest store and postoffice, but the "jacks" are kept liberally supplied with fresh butter, fresh milk, smoking and chewing tobacco, etc. A graphophone and monochrome an almost inevitable adjunct of the isolated logging camp and the lumbermen manage in one way and another to get records of the latest song "hits" from time to time. The average logging camp has two main structures—the bunk house where the loggers sleep in bunks arranged in tiers, and the cook shanty where the food is cooked and served. To call this eating hall a shanty is, however, something of a misnomer, since the word is likely to suggest a modest hut, whereas the cook shanty of an up-to-date logging camp must be large enough to accommodate a crude dining table perhaps 40 feet in length. The cooking in a logging camp is done by a man and wife (almost invariably Gorilla) who hire out as professional cooks and who have the help of two masculine assistants. They work over a range that is 10 feet long and on top of which stands a coffee urn that holds as much as a barrel; a meat boiler that holds 100 pounds of pork or beef, and a can in which there can be boiled at a time more than a bushel of potatoes. Below are the owen that are baked some 10 to 15 square feet of bibs every day. In some camps heavy stoneware is provided for use on the table, but at a majority of logging establishments each of the 50 to 150 men is simply allowed a spoon, plate, and cup of tin and a knife and fork of steel.

Various Systems That Are In Use From Elementary to University and Professional Described— Attendance is Optional. Tomsk, Siberia. The prevalent impression today is that education facilities are sady lacking in Siberia and the Russians in general. The average man holds the misconception that Russia has very few schools indeed and Siberia none and no prospect of any better schooling than that of the knout and the onslaughts of wolf and arctic cold. First comes the Narodnija utchillchstel the national free elementary school. It teaches similarly nothing more than the three Rs, and you saw and talked to the average Siberian peasant you would see that in his present state of mental degradation this simple fare is about as much as is good for his youngsters yet awhile, writes Bassett Digby in the Chicago Daily News. He himself expresses no desire to go to any school and often enough he makes himself a nuisance by wanting to keep his children at home as wage earners. This type of duties in all but the smallest and most important villages, and it is decidedly on the increase in several small villages that had been erected recently. Attendance is optional. Then there is the realmaia (in Germany the realschule), with a curriculum of history, geography and mathematics. Special attention is given to geography, the subject being divided into physical and commercial aspects. The realnaas are met with in the usual run of villages. They occur chiefly in towns and big villages. Attendance is free. Next comes the third of the three free school systems—the gymnasium. History, literature and the higher mathematics are taught. French and German are voluntary. English can- A Siberian Home. not be taken. Latin and Greek are compulsory, and are rather overdone, according to some of our informants. In 1880 Count A. Tolstoy, cousin of the literary Leo and then minister of education for the Russians, became obsessed with the idea that in copious doses of the classics would lie "the dissipation of the empire's social unrest and that their study would foster a spirit of conservatism. So he dealt hand and Greek with a generous hand and along generation still has to stagger along with his unwed legacy. Gymnasia, of course, are to be found only in the towns and cities. The kommerschekala are private and trade schools. The courses of mental instruction are much easier than those of the gymnasia. They occur in the big towns and cities, and are largely filled with the children of the Jews. In the national free schools of Siberia, only from 2 to 5 per cent of the attendance is permitted to be composed of Jewish lads. This is not much hardship in the villages, but in the towns and cities the position will not right itself. Great numbers of Jewish lads are on the waiting list of every school. The碧伯学校, free and otherwise, are filled to the utmost limit of their capacity. In many cases today they have to go on double time schedule, detachments of the same class being taught in the morning and in the afternoon. Tomsk is the home of the only university in Siberia. Founded in 1880, and opened seven years later, it has now a very creditable attendance, which has been considerably underated, by the way, in recent books on Siberian affairs. The roll stands at over 1,200, and each succeeding term has been attended by university is nonresidential, students having to find their own quarters in the town. Fees are very moderate, 100 rubles ($50) the year, which is divided into two long terms—one starting in September, the other early in the new year. There are two "schools"—medicine and law. The former is the more important. With it are connected splendidly equipped anatomical laboratories and a fine bacterological实验室 in under the auspices of the medical school of Tomsk university.

WOMAN GETS GOOD POSITION Clever Misa Mona Wilson to Help Put Lloyd-George's New Insurance Laws Into Effect. London—One of the few popular things done by Lloyd-George in connection with the new insurance bill which is shortly to be issued is the appointment of Mona Wilson as one of the Board of Commissioners to administer the statute. No woman in trade union circles has won more esteem by her work than Miss Wilson, and although she may not be able to make her particular department of the new law workable, because of the inherent weakness of the whole scheme, she will bring to bear on it more expert knowledge, more human sympathy and other practical intelligence than any other, and the chancellor of the exchequer could not help Miss Wilson is the daughter of Canon Wilson, formerly archdeacon of Mona Wilson Manchester. Born to a position in which she might have devoted her life to the ordinary inconsequentials of a young girl, she has preferred to do estate, industrious problems, especially those which affect women. For some years she has been actively associated with the important work of Charles Booth, Mary MacArthur, Gertrude Tuckwell and Lady Dike. She was a member of the Home Office "Departmental Committee to Inquire Into Industrial Accidents." Subsequently she was appointed to one of the trade boards under the Board of Trade, in which capacity she was a potent factor in canvassing the chainmaking and the paper boards trades and making labor exchanges of practice in the thousands of members. She was also a profile source of knowledge and advice to the temporary officials of the Board of Trade in dealing with her sex. As one of the insurance commissioners she will receive $5,000 a year for a term of five years—an extremely high salary in British official life, especially for a woman.

SAVING THE BABIES How One City Is Conserving Lives of Infants. Expert Finds Examples of Gross Care- lessness and Ignorance In the Care of Youngsters Among Both Whites and Blacks. Richmond, Va.—That there are hundreds of thousands of American babies sacrificed yearly on the altar of incompetent motherhood has been proven conclusively by the officers of the department of health of this city. That tens of thousands of these infants may be saved, may be raised into strong men and women, has also been conclusively proven by Dr. Ernest C. Levy, chief health officer of Richmond, and his able assistants. For the sake of the nation, for the sake of humanity, and for the sake of the happiness of mothers and fathers, Levy has proven that municipal supervision of babies stand a better, far better, of living than do unsupervised babies be they even of the families of the very well to do citizens. Retaining the expert services of Miss Elizabeth Detwiler, a trained nurse specialized in the care of babies, Dr. Levy planned the active campaign for the saving of infant life in Richmond. Two great sections of the city were chosen for the initial campaign, one section in which whites of the laboring classes lived, the other tenanted by blacks. In these sections of the city the infant mortality for years had been exceedingly high. Securing two more trained nurses, a house-to-house care for babies was made in these two sections, and weeks for the nurses to recognize the great need for the supervision of the care of babies in these sections of the city. Examples of gross carelessness and ignorance in the care of youngsters were found among both the whites and the blacks. Scores of young mothers were found who had to leave their children many hours a day to careless Type of Mother Instructed by Nurses. boarding mistresses who were really criminally negligent in the preparation of the bottled food given their charges; many children, struggling infants of but a few months of age, were left to the care of grandmothers who had no experience with botulism and who did through ignorance everything the wrong way, and some of the infants were found to be starving. The nurses, therefore, quickly classified the hundreds of babies they saw, planning to see some of the healthy, well-cared for babies once a month and the sickly ones once or even twice a day. By concentrating their attention on the care of the babies who were really in desperate need of assistance, Dr. Levy's little fistful of remarkable results was able to obtain remarkable results, keeping alive and well children who had been left to the sole care of their mothers, would have died within a few months of starvation or disease. In regard to the care of children, the work of the Richmond department of health is simply one for the conservation of the human race. Miss Detwiler, whose expert advice is at the disposal of the mothers of Richmond day and night, says, in regard to her work among the mothers in the district, "In our work here we started with four definite objects, viz., to give babes a chance to be born without serious prenatal handicaps; to make mothers understand how to feed their infants properly; to give mothers a chance to carry out the instructions given them, and to provide well for infants who have lost their mothers, either by death or desertion. Wherever it was possible, we insisted that babies receive their babies food supplied by nature. When this was not possible, especially women who had to work in factories, we insisted as far as possible on half breast and half bottle feedings.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1912 It has been more or less asserted by scientists and others that both Adam and Jesus Christ were not white, which, of course, is easy to believe, when one thinks of the fact that even at the present time only about one eight of the population of the world is white. But now comes a Theosophist, D. S. M. Unger of Chicago, who declares he knows for a fact that Christ is coming back to earth within the next twenty years. Says Mr. Unger: "Whenever a nation or the world really needs a great leader, he turns up. The world is sadly in need of a great religious leader these days and so I know Christ is coming back within the next twenty years. And, in order that humanity may have no trouble in being certain of the presence of Christ, he will have a brown body." Well, if Christ returns to this earth brown in color, there are people in the United States who will not accept him. Any old excuse will do so that the inhuman southerners may indulge in their most delightful pastime of lynching Afro-Americans.

They used to claim they seldom resorted to lynching except for assaults or alleged assaults upon white women, but now any sort of excuse will do. It seems strange that these "superior race" people are so heartless. If God is just, and we believe He is, they are heaping up wrath against the day of wrath. "Vengeance is mine, I will repay saith the Lord." violate their oaths in a court of justice (?) does not argue well for the moral status of those people.

Evidently Bustonjee is a paid emissary of the British government, or of some organization which has for its object the crushing out of the liberty of the masses of the East ndians. It is a strange fact that every race produces a class of men who are willing to belittle their own people for the smiles or cash of the oppressor. We have hundreds of the "good nigger" class here in the United States, who glory in doing all they can to injure the Afro-American people, provided they can get a jimcrow office in some alleged Christian organization or the cash of the white man. Many would sell their souls to have some cheap Caucasian refer to them as "good niggers." J. E. B. Cunningham, deputy attorney general of Pennsylvania, in asking for a change of venue in the cases of seven defendants yet to be tried on murder charges growing out of the lynching of Zach Walker near Coatsville, Pa., last August, declared that "there is a deep-seated purpose on the part of Chester county not to convict a white man for the murder of a Negro."

That it pays to advertise in newspapers and that the bigger the advertisement the better the result, are twin conclusions drawn by the Rev.

The minister advertised his sermon for last Sunday in a local newspaper, taking space larger than the space taken by the theater management in advertising theatrical attractions on that day. His crowd was larger than those at the play. He will keep up the publicity campaign. And a great many others would do well to get wise to the fact that it pays to advertise. The white people of this country are having great times over the alleged indecency of some of their recently inaugurated dances, know as the "Turkey Trot," the "Grizzly Bear," "Bunny Hug," etc, and their papers are exploiting them in great shape. Now comes a new one, the "Wiggle Wiggle," which must be awful, since it caused eight detectives to blush when they saw it danced in a restaurant a few nights ago. The Afro-American, who is generally believed to be an imitator of the white man's vices rather than virtues, hasn't caught onto these objectionable dances yet. Universal suffrage for the clitizens of the District of Columbia was proposed in a bill introduced in Congress by Representative Berger of Wisconsin. The people of the District were disfranchised many years ago because of the large population of intelligent Afro-Americans, the white people being willing to deprive themselves of the right to vote, provided the colored brother did not exercise the privilege.

This money they receive in bills or coins. The person legally responsible for it is the secretary of the treasury of the United States, who is charged with making all of Uncle Sam's money. But, getting down to real facts, it is somebody else who bosses all the money—Miss Margaret V. Kelly, Uncle Sam's highest paid womaan official. She gets $5,000 a year. She is assistant director of the mint. Actually the secretary of the treasury has little to do with our coin. Miss Kelly attends to that. There are but four persons between her and the secretary of the treasury, and in their absence she runs things. Miss Kelly is a native of New Hampshire, a producer of Boston educational institutions. As assistant director of the mint Miss Kelly holds such a high official position in the treasury department that it can be truly said that there has never been her equal in the service. THE passing of great baronial houses in politics is stimulated by the last elections. Another blow has been delivered to the practice in several instances of handing the senatorial toga from father to son. State Senator Arthur P. Gorman, Democrat, of Maryland, was only running for governor to be sure, but it was generally recognized that had he been elected he would soon have become a formidable candidate for the United States senate, where his father of the same name served for many years. The late Senator Gorman started his only son upon a political career by reason of his influence with the state machine, and undoubtedly looked ahead to the day when the son would become a senator. The Gormans are related to the Davises and Elkines, of West Virginia, a neighboring state. All three families made considerable money in the same ventures, but not all their money for the late Senator Gorman died a millionaire, the late Senator S. B. Elkins, Republican, died a multi-millionaire, and ex-Senator Henry Gassaway Davis, cousin of Gorman and father-in-law of Elkins, is the richest of them all and close to 90 years old. Young Davis Elkins got into the United States state a few days last spring on a Gubernatorial appointment, prior to the assembling of the legislature. TENTATIVE design for the Perry memorial to be erected in 1913 at Put-in-Bay, Ohio, in memory of the one hundredth anniversary of Commodore Perry's battle on Lake Erie has been selected here by the joint board, composed of the state boards of nine states which are to participate in the erection of the memorial. The architect has been employed and preparations begun for a celebration which is to last from July 4, 1913, to October 1 of the same year and is to be participated in by almost every city in the Great Lakes. J. Friedlander of New York was selected for architect, his suggestion for the memorial being accepted as the most satisfactory of 54 submitted. It will be subject to modification, but in $1,250, $1,000 and $750 each were the main will be erected as proposed by Mr. Friedlander. Premiums of "FROM the final reports submitted by inspectors covering the arrests for the fiscal year it has been ascertained that the promoters of fraudulent schemes who have been put out of business during the past year have obtained approximately $77,000,000 from the public." "This is the astonishing statement made in the annual report of R. S. Sharp, chief postoffice inspector. It will probably be incredible to the average person that there are enough "easy marks" in the United States to contribute $77,000,000 to operators of "get-rich-quick" projects, but, according to the chief inspector, this amount does not represent nearly all that went into the pockets of swindlers. The $77,000,000 is the profits of those who have been caught, and does not take in those who are still operating. "These fraudulent schemes," said Chief Inspector Sharp, "cover a wide field and are of endless variety, from the simplest business transaction to a gigantic project involving the sale of worthless stock in fake mining companies and fictitious institutions existing only on paper or in the minds of the promoters. "The result of the year's work has developed the fact that these fraud manipulators are a distinct class of criminals, some moving in the highest social and business circles, but near- Fifteen years ago, fresh from the Boston schools, Miss Kelly tacked a civil service examination. She passed and fourteen years ago entered the service of the mint bureau as a stenographer. Since that time she has been successively private secretary to the director, adjuster of accounts, examiner, assistant director, and now, when the director is absent from Washington, she signs herself "acting director." To see her some day acting secretary of the treasury of the United States is no stretch of the imagination, for, if the secretary and the two assistant secretaries, the comptroller of the currency and the treasurer of the United States were to be absent themselves at the same time, and Miss Kelly were then acting director of the mint, it would be "Margaret V. Kelly, Acting Secretary, Treasury Department." While there are 1,400 employees in the mint service and the responsibilities of the management are great, Miss Kelly held her own as acting director for the last few months. She is an expert in the manufacture of coins, knowing every detail of the manufacture of the pennies, nickels and silver and gold coins that are turned out to the value of millions of dollars annually. The salary that Miss Kelly receives, $3,000 a year, is large pay as government salaries go, for Uncle Sam does not believe in paying too well for any service rendered, no matter how valuable. Last elections in Maine dashed high hopes for another family succession in the senate. The Maine voters understood pretty well that if Col. Fred Hale had not slipped up on his ambition to get into congress from the First district he would speedily have gone into training for the senate, and had Maine stayed Republican the organization, of which his father, now ex-Senator Hale, was head, would have had a toga waiting for him. Similarly, over in Vermont, where for a season the late Senator Redfield Proctor held the state as in the hollow of his hand, all the plans had been laid for a senatorial succession from father to son. It proceeded as far as the election of the son to be governor of Vermont, and ex-Gov. Fletcher Proctor in a quiet way became a senatorial candidate; but in spite of the son's excellent qualities the idea of the succession was not hospitably received in rock-bound Republican Vermont and was gradually abandoned. awarded to the second, third and fourth designs, according to their merit as seen by the board. The memorial is to consist of a plain shaft 330 feet high, erected near the shore of Lake Erie, at a point off which the battle was fought. There is to be a terrace or plaza leading down to the water's edge and on one side will be erected the historical museum, while another is to a memorial building to commemorate the 100 years of peace. The estimated cost of the memorial is $500,000, which is being raised by the various state commissions. As part of the celebration the Niagara, the old flagship of Commodore Perry, which is sunk in Erie harbor, will be raised and made seaworthy. It will then be taken to each of the more prominent of the lake cities during next summer for a stay of a few days in each one. It will be escorted from city to city by vessels of the naval militia and such escort of motor boats and other craft as can be mustered into a fleet. This part of the celebration is expected to start immediately after the Fourth of July next year and last until into the fall. The committee on celebration held a meeting and this plan was outlined and adopted.

IMAGESENT BY WIRE Recent French Invention That Opens Great Possibilities. Photographs Can Be Sent by Telegraph With Great Accuracy and Some Speed Whenever Necessary Apparatus Exists. Paris.—It has been possible for some time to send photographs by wire with great accuracy and some speed, wherever the necessary apparatus exists. Such transmission has for a year or so formed part of the regular Paris service of an enterprising London journal. Suppose, however, that a reporter finds himself at a country telegraph station and desires to send to his paper a picture of some kind in connection with his story—portrait, or the photograph of some building or locality. He is evidently no better off than he would have been a century ago. A recent process, however, the invention of a French engineer named Mortier, would make it possible for him to send his picture over a single wire, with the aid of the ordinary telegraphic instruments—or rather, it would enable him to telegraph data from which the picture could be built up at the receiving station. This process is described by R. Bounin in La Nature, where we read: "Mortier's process requires neither costly and delicate apparatus nor any peculiar installation, nor a special wire. It will work anywhere, using under normal conditions the existing telegraphic plant of the smallest localities and without the least interference with its ordinary administration. "What was necessary to obtain this result? First, to take up in a new form one of the original conceptions of Charles Cros, about 1869—the translation of images into a series of numbers, then to give to the symbolic Elements That May Combine to Form the Human Face. numerical text a form that will make it transmissible by all telegraphs, with or without wires. Finally, to effect a typographic reconstruction of the image. } "The first thing to do is to cut the picture up into tiny squares, each one of which has the tone of the part of the image in which it is situated which tone is represented by a conventional figure serving for its telegraphic transmission. But this process, which has the inconvenience of being slow and uncertain, has been happily replaced by Mr. Mortier by the following, which may be called automatic: "The picture to be transmitted is first printed in an enlarged form susceptible of easy analysis. This analytic print has two valuable properties —first, it is naturally cut up by a grillage of fine lines; secondly, the squares do not appear as more or less gray or transparent elements whose tone cannot be evaluated numerically, nor as groups of points whose light value can be stated in numbers only after a laborious measurement, but rather as black silhouettes against a white ground or vice versa, of forms so diversified as to embrace an extended scale of shades and so striking as to be identified at sight. "These expressive figures arise spontaneously in the course of the manipulations, simple enough, that turn out the analytic proof. By what artifices has it been possible so to discipline the actinic force of the light that it shall express its own tonalities in characters more discernible than figures? The zoned cellular transparency, a simple sheet that has been placed in the printing frame between the original negative and the sensitive paper, before the printing of the analytic proof, operates this miracle by itself alone. At first sight this transparent sheet shows a simple marking in squares, but under the microscope the appearance of the network gives place to an arrangement of square cells of complex structure which reproduce exactly the typical outlines of the symbolic silhouettes of the preceding illustration. "After the preparation of the print, the analysis of it amounts to no more than the simple reading of a page and the jotting down of the figures in order." Starving Russians Sell Children. London.—A doctor in Orenburg reports terrific suffering among peasantry in southeastern Russia. He says starving peasants on the River Ural, not having received any assistance, are selling their children to Khirgese nomads.
