watch the torpedo as IL grows under
this process until it has all been Joined
together and is turned over tnthe fin-
ishers, who go all over Its. surface, rub
bing and filing and polishing it until it
glistens like a mirror and offers the
least possible resistance to passing
through the water.
MAKING A RECORD FOR EACH TOR
PEDO.
The finished torpedo goes next to the
storeroom, where it is placed, in COM
pany with dozens of s fellows. in
wooden racks ranged one above an
other. Throughout its career it is
handled with the greatest care, but so
far it is harmless. The bronze head is
practice head, and carries only the
ballast needed to give it the proper
weight.
The VIE head, with its charge of
gun and cotton, is not to be put on un-
til the actual need for the topedo's SER
vice shall arise.
Next in order comes the testing.
For this work the Bliss Company has
secured the use of Peconis Bay, at Sag
Harbor, L. l. Here is anchored an
old fashioned wooden vessel fitted with
torpedo tubes, and here the torpedo
makes its first trip in the water. A
course is laid out 1000 yards in length,
and the torpedo is sent over this course
many times under conditions as varied
as possible, and is tried in every posi-.
BILE way. After each trial some slight
adjustment is made until the thing is
in as perfect working order as it can
attain. Then, in the presence of naval
officers, it is fired five times in success
sion from the tube, each time with an
identical charge, and its performance
on each trip is carefully noted by means
of accurate instruments. These rec
ords are taken by mechanism placed
inside the hollow practice head which
sets down the speed, horizontal aud
vertical variation, and other useful
data relating to the projectile. As fast
as these records are made they are
transferred to the notebooks of the of
fcers for future reference.
STUDYING THE ToRPEDo's HABITS.
If the torpedo's performance is salts
factory, it goes next to the govern
men'S torpedo station at Newport, r.
L. There it is tested again in several
practice runs, and its record on each
run is carefully preserved and at
tached to it. A torpedo is like a living
person-it has it little habits and pecui-
iarities, and as far as possible, these
are found out beforehand, so that when
it comes to be fred the men in charge
may make allowance for its idiosyn-
crasies.
The torpedo remains at Newport un-
til it is needed. When a call for its
services is received the practice head
is removed. In ita place is put the
deadly "war head," carrying 200
pounds of gun cotton, carefully guard
ed against premature explosion, but
primed to scatter an enemy in atoms.
Thence it is taken on board the war;
ship ready for its final jourDey-the
completed thunderbolt ready to be
launched-.he mightiest and most per-
feet engine of destruction ever devised
by the ingenuity of man.

A Costly Flag.

The costliest flag in New Yolk, and
probably in the United States, can be
seen in the window of a roadway
jeweler. 1t represents an outlay of
SIS 900. This flag is made of diamonds,
rubies and sapphires. 1t is very small
for its worth-oDly seven by four
inches-but it looks big to the people
who stop to size it up. 1t has thirteen
stripes and fUrty.twO stars. The
white stripes are of small diamoLds,
SOC of them. The red stripes, of course,
are of rubie the same in number and
size as the diamonds, but for the blue
field are about 300 sapphires, with
fOriy-two diamonds for stars.
