Why Lead Is So Heavy. Although lead is the softest metal in general use. it is very denseâ€" that is. its particles are very compactly united. and there is no room for air to cirt-u- late in between these particles. Most apparently solid substances are pene- trated by more or less air. and this. of course. affects the weight in propor- tion to the bulk. A piece of wood is lighter than a piece of lead of exactly equal bulk because the little particles which make up the piece of wood are not very close together, and it contains a lot of aim-Boston Herald.

She Ls Recruiting More Soidiers and Sailors Proportionately to Her Population Than Any Other Sec- tion of the Empireâ€"Twenty Miles of Ice Barred Passage of Her Second Contingent, The departure a few weeks ago of the first company of 250 men of Newfoundland’s second contingent for the British forces was accompan- ied by a unique circumstance prob- ably unknown in the military history of any country. The transport was unable to reach within 20 miles of St. John's owing to ice floes blockad- ing the harbor, and the detachment had- to be embarked on the sealing steamer Neptune off St. John’s, which took twelve hours to force her way through the floe‘s until she reached the Dominion and put the men aboard, and then she spent all next day cutting a channel for the liner through the ice until she was able to reach open water and pro- ceed on her voyage, ceed on her voyage, When the war broke out New- foundland undertool to raise a 1.1111- tary contingent of 500 men and to raise to 1,000 the Cotonial Naval Re- serve already in existence and fixed at a maximum of 600 by the Admir- alty. The 500 men for 1:1 nd mice were soon over-e1 listed, and 0who the first Canadian ( ontlngent crossed in October, adxantage was taken of the opportunity to despatch their men at the same time and so avail of the com oy, and accordingly the bat- talion, 540 strong ,left St. J01’ns in the large sealing steamer Florizel, joined the convoy off Cape Race, and in due course reached Plymouth. In the meantime the patriotic spirit of the young men of the colony demanded opportunities for further enlistment, and this was strengthen- ed by general popular sentiment with the idea that a full battalion of a thousand might he enlisted so that the Newfoundland force might go to the front as a unit. and the colony ‘ain whatever credit might result from its vor k, as, failing the enlist- ment of a thousand men, the contin- gent would be broken up and lose its identity by being merged with other fo1ces in the Old Country Very soon another 500 men v. ere enrolled and he training of these men pushed for- wa rd as rapidly as possible. Of course, it must berernexnbered that Newfoundland suffered from the dia'vback of liming no military force 1» hatex er, no t1ained ofiicers or men, and no equipment that could be util- ized, except some discarded Biitish army r1 'ilos utilized for t1ain.ng cadet brigades.

A turther trouble was that in. midm’inter, with the, coast ico- blockadcd, liners are disinclined to, venture near the Newfoundland sea- board, and. indeed, the Allan liners abandoned the service entirely dur- ing February, Mat ch and Apr i.l However, the White Star Liner Do- minion undertook to C'll at St. John s on her v03 age from Philadel- phia, and in due course move up oft’ St. John's. The martial ardor of the peOple is being stimulated to still further efforts, and the decision has just been reached, in view of the number offering. to enlist another 250 men, which will provide for a full com- pany to be held as a reserve at the base in England, in addition to the battalion 1,080 strong. Mr. W. D, Reid, president of the Reid Newfoundland Company, the great corporation which controls the local transportation by land and sea, through its trains and steamboats, has made a personal gift to the regi- ment of two machine guns, an essen- tial part of the equipment of a full battalion, and an expert from Mont- real will train the section of 20 men which will Operate these two guns when in the field. This splendid gift is very appreciatively received byrthe people of the colony, as it is an ad- dition to a gift of $5,000 in cash made by Mr, Reid’s company in the shape of one day’s pay each, and also the free transportation by his trains and steamers of all volunteers for the military and naval forces. Including the second company of the second contingent, which will probably cross with the second Cana- dian contingent, and. which will mean a thousand soldiers from New- foundland in the Old Country, and with a thousand natal reservists from Newfoundland also across there, which number will have been sent forward by the same time (including 100 assigned to therCanadian war- ship.Nlobe. at the opening of hostili- ties), Newfoundland will then have in England 2,000 men, or the equiva- lent, on a population basis of 64,000 from Canada, which number will not be made up from first and second Canadian contingents. In other words, Newtonnland will then have a larger force, prOportionately, in England than any of the other self- governing dependencies of the Em- pire.
