It is the turbine -steamer which is do - log all this, and that the turbine has come to stay is sufficiently indi- cated in the facts that it has al - many been fitted to many ships of war and passenger -steamers, and that now, at last, the Cunard Company is considering the advisability of put- ting there into Trans -atlantic ves- sels, and with this object in view a commission is about to begin a full inquiry into the system. SAVING IN 00AL. Already a big firm of engineers has offered to fit on hoard the huge Con- arders which are just about to be built turbine -engines which will • de- velop 75,000 indicated horse -power on a coal consumption of only 3,365 Lous, as against 6,884 tons required by the use of reciprocating engines. These turbines would reduce the At- lantic passage to 1001 hours, or 22 less than at present. This, however, is considered by the most competent authorities to be considerably withihi vhat is practi- table at the present moment. It is preferred to advance gradually and surely in matters of this kind, which 'will revolutionize • existing systems; nut there is really no doubt what- SVCr that a vessel could lae built straight away which would reduce tbe Atlantic passanga to between three and three and a half days, which would take three or four days off the passage to the Cape, five or • six on that to Hong _Kong, a week or more to Australia, and generally effect a further shrinkage of the world the results of which would be of such a far-reaching character that as yet they can hardly be imagined wit)i a n3r degree or accuracy. In f TAT A TURBINE IS. The average persoie who has little ce no acquai et am ce • with mechanical. 0,gindering !natters has still the •NWPr, foor others will be elle to connult themselves so far us to say that it it is a new appliance of steam - !power, whilst four will declare it to the a new power aleogether—some- !thing ou the lines of a petroleum-en- Lgine smell as Is esuoliy fitted to the motor -ear. The word ' turbine" sounds as if it stood for a kind of :oil or spirit, hence tbe confusion 111 . the public mind. A turbine would be described, bluntly, in a small dietionary as a 'horizontal water -wheel- and a. water- wheel such as drives the machinery of some mills in ea:entry districts and which is familiar to everybody, is really nothing but a witter-turbine. The steam -turbine, which is enemeed in upsetting all preconceived ideas about ocean voe-ages, is just the same in princ.ipIe, save that steam takes the place of water, and that it is force of 'impact alone, and not fierce combined with weight—as in the case of the water—which makes the wheel go round. In the middle of the ship there is a big drum placed, which will revolve on II central axle, whence the motive -power is applied direct to the propeller. 1.1us drum is enclosed with a cylin- drical case, and on the outside of the drum and on the inside of the case, facing and nearly touching each other, are rows of tbousancls of lit- tle projecting blades, The blades on the drum are so shaped slantingly that if you were able to blow hard enough at them a relary impulse would be applied to the drum, and it would move round. The steam is let into the cylinder through a hole at the side direct from the boiler, and, acting upon the movable blades causes the drum to revolve at a very rapid rate. HOW -A TURBInTE ACTS. The fixed blades on the .inside of the cylinder, which almost touch tb.e others, slant in the opposite di- rection, arid they are there for the purpose of securing the efficiency of the turbine, and making the steam act upon it in the right way. 'When the steam first enters the cylinder it meets a ring of these fixed blades, by whicli it is defleeted so that it strikes the adjoining ring of moving blades at the proper angle for imparting the rotary • impulse. Mum the steam leaves thtne blades it has naturally been deflected, and the second . ring of fixed blades is interposed, these directing the steam on to the second ring of moving blades. Precisely the same process is carried out 15;ltli the many succeeding rings of guide and moving blades, until the steam final- ly makes its etnape at "the exhaust - pass age That IS a ,erenotrite explauation of the Most part, arise from its excess of merit. In. the first place, the full advant- age of the turbine is only derived when it is working 'under full pees - sue and on a large scale.

But the ocean giants are not let out for experi- relents, and it is the way of the world that early trials must be made on comparatively small things. 34 KNOTS 1,14n Ram.

Meerut to nelhi that a number of the men of the 3r4 Native Cavalry were to be punished for refusing te bite their cartridges. It may be remembered that it WAS tile supposed faet of the eartridges being greased with lard which was the immediate eause of the outbreak of the Indian Mutiny. Air. Todd, who was in charge, at the telegraph office at Delbi„ started for Meerut early oa the Monday morning to ascertain tile muse of a, sudden breakdown of the wire. He met the mutineers, and was killed. At the Delhi office were left two boys named. Breudish and Pitting - ton. About eleven o'e]osk I e'vvlor tiring b^gan in the city, just outside the wills of which the telcgraPh office lay. Then a wounded British officer came by in a carriage. Batt the boys remained at their posts tele- graphing the news of events through to Lahore by way of Umballa, which was the only line remaining open. At two in 'the after000n DOW' was taken by the autatincers from Meernt. and'all the Europeaus Were maesacred. Brendish sent the news through, and ended with the words, "AND NOW I AN OFF." It was this message which enabled General Lawrence at Lahore to dis- arm the Sepoys there before they heard the news of the capture of Del- hi. If this precaution had not been token, these regiments which eere U;U1inQtO to the '.kl not certainly have risen, and the a rebel- lion would have spread ell through the Perijob.

When Lord Itosehory heard of the French order, he inquired of France what facilities would ho given for victualling our sidps of war off the tilavoloi ports. 'the French adMirel replied that the order applied to ships of war as well as merchant nesnels, and that • no Linnet was leat Hail our Government acquieseed, it Is almost certain that the Slaws^ netives would have risen. all white people would have been killed, and ono of our most valuable markets lost to us far ever. Iestead, Lord Ito:where telegraphed immediately to Briagkon that the Linnet was on no excount to leave. The French ad- miral eeento that Britain ineent nest!. explained matters away by saying that he had not intended to order our ship to leave; lie had merely desired that she would change her potion. STeentime our a overnment devot ed all its energies towards inducing Si- am to yield to certain of the French demands, aucl by August lst elle did so, and THE CRISIS WAS OVER. Other countries besides our own have prated largely by the use of the telegraph wire. It is said that a telegram gained for Russia her long coveted Pacific harbor, Port Ar- thur. When Russia grabbed the place a whole British fleet was promptly oh the spot, and Lord Salisbury sent a strong communica- tion to the Russian Government on the subject of "the open door." At that very moment the Russian states- man Mouravieff is alleged to have received a wire from a correspondent in England, announcing that Queen Victoria had declared that she would never sign another declaration of war. Armed with this knowledge, he promptly refused to give up the town. His bluff paid, for the Brit- ish ships were withdrawn, and Port Arthur abandoned to Russia, and is now closed to all but, Russian and Chinese ships. Another Far Eastern telegram, a brutal one it has been eonsidered, has since been said to have been the means of saving Manchuria to the Russians. It was that which led to the horrible massacres at Blagovest- chensk, in which many hundreds of Ohinese lost their lives. The Russian general Gribsky, who was in command at Blagovestchensk, wired to the Russian go-vernOr of the province cif Eharbarovsk, asking .what Was to be done. The answer came: "In. War, burn and deStroy." It has since come out that the in: cident which led to this exchange of wires was that the Cameox stopped a. Russian •steamer on the river and fired on it, killing several of the crew, and the Shiest:me say that, had they not •acted promptly, the rebel- lion would have spread like wildfire all over the country. PROPERTY OF GREAT VALUE has often been saved by wire. For instance, when Johannesburg was taken from the Boers by our troops, a telegram sent lpy Colonel Macken- zie, :the military governor, stopped the payment of a certain cheque on the French Bank ef South Africa, 'and thereby saved $200,000 to the British owners of the money. On another occasion a shoal of herrings was seen off the island of Stronsay by an officer of the Fishery Board. He at once Wired particul- ars to every station in Orkney, with the result that 108 boats went out, end caught herriogs, which sold for More recently a wireless wire was the means of saving one of the most valuable sidles in the world from serious danger, it not from actual destruction, The ICalser T1111 SUNDAY SET1100,14 INTERNATIONAL 1.,/iss02(y DEC. 13, Text of tes LessonT. ii-ugs 141, eg, 63, Golden.
