WATER-TUBE BOILERS IN THE NAVY

The armored cruiser Crlstoba Colon. which
Is reported to be on her way to Havana at the
present time. has n displacement Of nearly
1000 tons and engines capable OF developing
from 1000 to 1900 horsepower. Not only
Is she new vessel, but she has also been
equipped, both for lighting and navigation. in
the most modern fashion. When. shortly after
her keel was laid (n September, 1880, Spain
negotiated for the purchase of the ship from
Italy the buyer stipulated that watertub, boil
ers should be substituted for boilers Of the old
shell type. which had been contracted for in the
first place Thus another nation making pre-
tensions to naval power was committed to the
use on n large vessel Of kind OF steam gen
orator that until recently had been employed
only on launches, torpedo boats and their de-
stroyers.
SO long as the adaptabty Of this type Of
boiler to naval purposes was open to question
1t was good policy to confine any experiments
made Herewith to comparatively small craft.
But II was not easy to see why. II 1t proved
success in the more limited field it should not
also give satisfaction when tried on a larger
scale. 1t was long ago demonstrated that much
less water and much less metal were required
to develop given amount of power II the
water was put inside the tube and the fire on
the outside Not only was a great saving eff
fected in the weight Of the boiler. but also in
the space 1t occupied; highly important con-
sideratlon in naval practice, because, by in
creasng the fuel storage Of vessel, 1t enabled
her to cruise for longer period without re-
coang The harm done by an enemy's shot
in piercing this kind Of boiler. 1t was soon
perceived. was localized and diminished. The
ability to get up steam more quickly when only
a small quantity OF water must be heated than
when large one is brought to the boiling
point was also apparent from the outset. And,
though this is an advantage which is Of more
value to torpedo boats than to cruisers, yet It
is not to he despsed even by those who handle
the larger craft One cannot but wonder there
fore at the slow Roadway which this type of
boiler has made in the favor Of naval experts
Commodore Melville, Chief Engineer Of the
United States Navy. has been credited with
progressive disposition In this matter; but the
limited number Of large vessels on which he
could experiment has compelled him to pursue
a rather conservative course thus far. Great
Britain. perhaps has been more favorably sit
uated for making practical tests than any other
nation. She has gone further, at any rate The
only two battleships in the world which have
engines that can develop $4,000 horsepower
are hers, and Brassey In THE Naval Annual
for 1897, remarked: The trials of the two
big cruisers Powerful and Terrible have fully
established the success Of the (water-tube)
boilers placed In them. 20 much so that the
"Belleville type may be said, for the present.
"to have definitely taken the place Of the re-
'turn-tub boiler for the purposes Of the feet"
The influence Of such examples on the other
navies Of the world Is sure to be great.

ITO Be Free"
Afloat our flag is flying
On the sea.
A naughty foes defying
Liberty
At the threshold of our land,
Where small but valiant band
Makes bold, determined stand
To be free.
Heroic hearts are beating
On the sea,
Defiant lips repeating
Liberty"
Not for vengeance arm the strong,
But to succor those whom wrong
Has oppressed and scourged so long
To be free.
The tyrant's bonds to sunder
On the sea
The cannon boom and thunder
"Liberty!''
And flaming fire shall glow,
And the blood in streams shall flow
Men will suffer death and woe
To be free.
Freedoms banner Is unfurled
On the sea
And proclaims to all the world
Libertyi
May our wills with thine accordi
To thy glory be 1t, Lord.
To unsheath the deadly sword
To be free.
