BATTLE PRACTICE
WIRELESLY-CONTROLLED TARGET. (Rec. 9.5 p.m.) Malta, May 25. A feature of the naval exercises was the shelling of the old battleship Centurian, which was wirelessly controlled. It had been for several days attacked by shells of all weights and calibres, but without a man on board she dodges, alters her speed and course and puts up smoke screens.—Australian Press Association.
