the TORPEDO STATION.


At Seal Cove, on the back side of Great
Diamond island, the government is erecting
a torpedo station. This is to be both
storage house and an operating station
for torpedoes. When completed it will
have nothing to attract attention, but
will be very strong fortification in
case of attack, and even then it can hardly.
be reached by shell, for it is protected in
the rear by a very steep bank, 80 or 40 feet
high. covered with thick growth of TIM
ber, and its death dealing instruments are
for the purpose of keeping vessels from
coming near the city so that vessels can not
yet at the front harbor. II will present
very peaceful appearance to the unpracticed
eve. being turfed over and hardly distin-
guishable from the rest of the land.
Under the supervision of Mr.. Sealy, the
excavations have been going on since the
frost left the ground, and at present have
reached a depth of about % feet. The ex-
cavation is all solid rock, and every morsel
has required blast to loosen it. At pres
ent, about % men are employed. pier
about 100 feet long has been built, at which
the materials necessary for the construction
of the station are handled.
The station itself will consist of case
mate 10 feet long by IL feet wide, and
about l2 feet high, in which III be placed
the instruments necessary for firing the
torpedoes, and complete telegraph outfit
| for learning the position of vessels from
observers who will be stationed at some dis
tance. Running to this point from
the water is long gallery about
four feet wide, through which will run
the cable. l2-foot stairway leads
up at the rear of the casemate to the
open air above. The walls and floor are
| to be of thick concrete, and an arched roof
is to be made of about four feet of concrete
| on which is to be placed about 10 or 10 feet
of earth and fine stones. ventilafing
shaft leads up from the centre of the case
| mate
This station is to be used more as an
operating station than for storage for the
deadly torpedoes. Torpcdoes will be placed
at known distances all over the harbOr, and
by means of the telegraph outfit the station
will be kept informed of the course, speed
and position of vessels entering the bay,
and when the vessel is in the right position
the torpedoes can be fired from Diamond
| island, although the gunner cannot see the
| vessel Another station is to be built simi-
| lar to this one at Diamond Cove, and al
ready the ground has been, clcared.-Port-

Way II Was Frozen.

RitnwoNp, July 3o.-(Special. Ken
nebec lee firms are having some difficulty
with buyers in the South in regard to the
quality of last winters harvest. 1t is said
that ice that forms under an extremely low
temperature does not stand up like that
which j. made under more moderate atnos-
pheric conditions. Experience has shown
that ice having the best staying qualities Is
harvested nearest to whore the water Is
warmed by an inflow from adjacent brooks
and inlets, and results obtained by artificial
producers of the product 20 to confirm this
theory
1t often happens that ice that is cut at a
,crtain point proves unsatisfactory and
quickly willis wh,u exposed TO the sun
shile ice cut at the same time and at an
,iier place within half mile or 50 Of the
former gives the best of satisfaction.
Tte same trouble that now confronts zee
dealers was txperlenced by them IN lsa5'
rt.e, say they DO not mind the loss OF ice
that accrues but the fact that they are hkeiy
