FIVE KILLED..
Trolley-Car Thrown Over = High Bank
ut Columbia, Pa.

Trolley-Car Thrown Over = High Bank
ut Columbia, Pa.
Columbia, Pa, Aug. 1O.-A frightful
trolley accident occurred at ten o'clock
Sunday evening on the Columbia &
Donegal Electric railway at point one
mile outside of this city. A crowded
car was returning from Chickie's park
when a gear wheel broke and the car
was thrown over 2O-foot embankment,
falling into creek. Five passengers
were killed outright and two score in
jured, many of them very seriously.
Following is the list of killed: Chief
Burgess H. II. Heiges, of Columbia;
Adam Foehlinger, motorman, Column
bia; James Ludlow, Seagirt, N. j.;
Henry Smith, Columbia; William Tink-
erson, Columbia. Twenty-Five injured
passengers, many of whom are expected
to die, were brought to Columbia hos
pital. A full list is not obtainable.

BIG LAND SWlNDLE.

Pittsburgh Residents Arc Out About
100000 or More.
Pittsburgh, Pa, Aug. 10. So A land
swindle, by which residents Of Pitts
burgh lost 100000, and perhaps more,
has come to light. Requisition papers
for the arrest of J. F. Van Smith, one
of the principals in the fraudulent
transaction, have been issued by Judge
Porter. Van Smith has been located
in Alexandria, Va.
Not only has the 500, 900 been lost, but
over 100 people who bought land from
Van Smith, and built homes for them
selves, are without title to their proper
ty, and are liable to be dispossessed.
The swindle was bold in conception and
in execution. Forged and fraudulent
deeds and certificates for western land,
it is charged, were exchanged for good
Allegheny county land, and the latter
was sold or mortgaged for cash.

COFFIN AND COUCH.

Luxury That Robs . Funeral of Much Of
Its Gloom.
A new style of coffin has been invent
ed for millionaires and extremely
wealthy people which does not bear the
slightest resemblance to a coffin. To
all appearances it is a luxurious couch.
The idea of the new casket is to re-
move from funeral all the repelling or
discomforting features Of death. In
stead of the body being uncasily
tramped within the casket it is remem'
bercd by friends and family as though
in graceful and natural sleep.
In mechanical construction, says the
New York Journal, it is as nearly per"
feet as can be made. The sides, the
ends and the corners are fitted with sill
YER hinges to drop to a perpendicular,
and virtually show the coffin turned in.
side out. This inside exhibits q couch
Of exquisite design and the most per-
feet workmanship, massive, substantial
and elegant. It has q soft spring bed

tary journal says, will be supplied by
war dogs, which have been most admir-
ably trained for seeking the wounded
and carrying dispatches. At the COM
mand Seek" accompanied by ges-
ture indicating the direction in which
the dogs are to search, they will start
off without allowing themselves to be
disturbed by any surrounding circum-
stances. They will find the men who
figured as wounded with unfailing GER
tainty, take piece of their clothing
cap, helmet or piece of cloth torn of
and bring this back to the ambulance
men, whom they then conduct to the
spot. In the dispatch service the dogs
fulfill their duty with admirable speed
and certainty. They carry the dis
patches in small box affixed to their

DIVING TORPEDO BOAT.
Description Of One Recently In
vented by j. P. Holland.
Ihould 1t Provo . Success, tho United
States Will Probably Purchase the
Exclusive Right to tho Csc
Of the Invention.

While aeronauts, such as Chanute,
langley, Maxim and others, are work.
hg together to solve the mysteries OF
mechanical fight another body of SCI
.ntists and engineers is trying to
.athom the science of submarine navi-
CATION. Every year one or more sub
marine boats are laid out on paper, and
some of them are actually built. A
lew of the many models and diving
GOATS" have been tested and found
practicable.
The latest candidate for govern
mental favor is the submarine torpedo
ooat designed by j. P. Holland, who has
oeen working ON submarine navigation
Tor quarter of century.
In 1887 he proved to the satisfaction
If the navy department of the United
States that his scheme was feasible, and
;o-day boat is being built after the
Holland design.
The vessel, says the Chicago Record,
s cigar-shaped, and is so feet long. Its
largest diameter is II feet, and it will
1ave triple expansion engines capable
IF developing 1900 horse power. Steam,
electricity and compressed air will be
used in the boat. The compressed air
will he for the use of the crew when
the vessel is submerged and for the
automobile torpedoes.
The electric current will be used for
power when the stored steam is used up
during a submerged period of naviga~
ton and for light. The smokestack is
vi the telescope order. When the YES
sci is above water, or awash"-that is,
partially submerged, the smokestack
will be "housed" and the opening her.
metically sealed.
When the smokestack is completely
housed the residual pressure of the
steam will drive the engines, for when
water under pressure is heated it gives
off steam for considerable length of
time. When this source of power gives
out the boat will fall back on the stor-
age batteries and electric motors.
When the vessel is floating on the sur
face, with it's hull well above the wa
ter, it makes 1871 knots an hour; when
The Worthington advance. [volume] (Worthington, Minn.) 1874-1908, 1896-08-13

it is awash the speed will be 1914 knots
an hour, and 6h knots an hour when
submerged.
The boat will be propelled by triple
expansion engines, working triple
screws. The submergion is made in
Two ways-by means of horizontal rud-
lers, which will cause the boat to dive
when they are inclined, and also by
screws, revolving in q horizontal plane
at the bow and stern.
Resting on top of the smooth, cigar
shaped hull is an armored superstruc-
ture, which includes a. coming tower.
From the center of this superstructure
rise the smokestack and air tube, both
Of them telescope.
The boat will be able to sink 10 feet
below the surface of the water, and
the specifications require that when
diving it shall reach q level of 20 feet
below the surface in one minute, and
when at rest it must be able to dive
to that depth within 30 seconds.
If the boat is moving forward the in
clination of the horizontal rudders at
the stern will cause it to dip and dive,
Just as the old "Peacemaker" did.
If boat is floating motionless on the
wuter it can be submerged by the hori-
zontal screws at the bow and stern. If
these screw-propellers are worked in
one or the other direction the vessel
will sink, and can be maintained at any
level or can be sent to the surface rapid
ly or slowly, as the commander desires.
In actual practice the boat will ap-
proach the war ship it intends to blow
out of the water with only its smoke
stack and coming tower above the
water, until it gets sufficiently close for
the man in the coming tower to see the
ship.
Then the smokestack will be drawn
into the vessel, the cover will be clapped
on and sealed and the vessel will dive
to the required depth. It has been
found that a boat cannot we'll be steered
from a coming tower under wuter.
Tor this reason the Holland boat is
provided with tube which will pro-
iect up above the surface of the water
when the vessel is submerged.
This tube will carry an inclined mir
ror, q prism which will reflect down
into the coming tower an image of
everything within the range of the
glass, and thus the commander of the
vessel will be able to watch the war
ship and guide his own boat.
The boat will carry five automobile
torpedoes, and provision is made for
the escape of the crew in case of acct
dent. The crew will he provided with
buoyant diving suits or helmets, and
method of opening the hatch is de-
v;sed, so that the men can escape in
their diving suits if the boat is injured
SO that it will not rise to the surface.
