Although it has been a good deal spoken of during the present South African campaign and is generally looked upon as one pf the mechanical marvels of the nineteenth century, the fundamental idea of using the sun's rays for writing is as old as the Roman empire itseif. Every student of the classics will remember how the old Roman soldiers used their shields for flashing back Information to the rear 'or from one wring of an army to another. The heliograph is practically the same system of sun flashing reduced to a scientific basis so that the message may he transmitted a distance of from five to even 100 miles when the circumstances are favorable. The military value of the helio-graphic method of transmitting information may be readily imagined. Its first advantage is its extreme simplicity.

Colby, of the British royal engineers, devised a more adequate system- for transmitting messages by tun flashes. His method of doing this was by nailing a certain number of pieces of bright tin on poles and exposing them to the sun's rays.

It will be interesting to note how men killed each other in the past when firearms -were not modern or did not exist, and when the opportunity to kill in. battle was much greater than it is at the present time. Edward III. and Philip VI. tilted with each other at Crecy Aug.

26, 1346, and the killed and wounded and prisoners amounted to 42,000 men. The English, although victorious, lost 12,000. This was right royal fighting, and would have given war correspondents remarkable material for bloody dispatches. At Hohen- llnden Dec. 3, 1800, the French loss was approximately 9,000, while the Austrlans in killed and wounded lost 8,000, and 12,000 prisoners were taken.

Thus the killed and wounded of that one day equaled the total losses in the Transvaal war of both sides in 120 days.
