Bruce has invented a syste which ig independent of the config uration of the country. Instead of the Morse key contacts, which would no withstand the heavy currents neces sary for lighting, he uses a specially improved key worked by carbon con tacts. For military purposes he ad vises the operation of balloons of var nished cambrie, such, in fact, as now are used by Great Britain, Italy an¢ Belgium. Gold-beaters’ skin also is ¢ material much in vogue. It isso light that an 18-inch balloon constryctec of it and filled with coal gas will lifl itself. On the other hand, it would require a cambric balloon seven feet in diameter to lift itself. Mr. Bruce believes that electric balloon signal ing soou will be extensively applied ty sclentiffe exploration iy ‘arete and antarctic expeditions. For that pur pose he recommends a balloon sev feet in diameter, whieh would lift 500 feat of cable, with a cubic capacity 0} 150 feet. The filling of this woul necessitate the taking out of a stee tube of compressed hydrogen about cight feet long. He finds it good prac tice to put the lamps inside the bal loon, This causes a loss of illuminat ing power, but makes the signaldng clearer. Whey incandescent lamps are flashed the filament remains hot fora moment. In the open this is vis. ible and connects the flashes, whereas with the lamps inside the balloon, the afterglow is not seen, In foggy weather, {he lamps, of course, have tc be outside, but then the fog acts as would the goldbeaters’ skin envelope and obyiates the confusion caused by the afterglow ston Transoript.
