1t must be pretty plain to those who
have intelllgently followed the opera
tons of the army that the most difficult
thing about war is not the fighting, but
the feeding Of the fighters. The feed
ers really have harder work than tho
fighters, and yet they hardly ever arc
mentioned or even thought Of by the
great public who are spectators Of the
game Of war.

EXTENDING TROLLEY LINES
Nearly 60 Miles of Tracks Being Laid
in Connecticut.

New Haven, Conn, April 18-Trol1ey
lines in this state representing either
new trolley roads or extensions of eX-
listing systems and actually under con-
structiOn or with right of way largely
purchased, comprise between so and go
miles of new road, of which about one
half, directly or Indirectly, parallels
steam lines. 1t will add about Is per
cent to the existing mileage of the
state.
The third-rail route between New
Britain and Bristol though temporarily
affected by a strike of workmen, is
pushing through rapidly. If it proves
successful in operation, officers of the
New Haven company intimate that
further extension to Waterbury will
quickly follow, though the plan will
probably require a new power house at
that city. The funds for the new line
are obtained, presumptive1y, from the
sum paid the New England in the ad-
justments for the Boston terminal. OF
that sum the New England is under
stood to have a considerable amount on
hand to use in the various improve
ments now in progress or projected.
The plan for suburban service by
composite car on the Philadelphia,
Reading & New England out of Hart
ford will, when carried out, afford some
interesting comparisons in economizing
with the third-rail system.

WORK FOR WOMEN.
DR.. Van Reypen Suggests That They
Furnish Delicacies for the
Sick Sailors

Washington. April 18-Secretary
Long has received a letter from women
in New York city, among them Mrs.
Wa1worth Regent of the Daughters of
the American Revolution, and Mrs.
Russell Sage, undertaking to raise sub
ScriptionS for another ambulance ship
for the navy.
This splendid offer has been referred
to Surgeon General Van Reypen, who
says the Solace is adequate for all
emergencies at present anticipated, but
ton for ameliOrating the condition of
the sick and wounded, and points out
that the patriotic women of the country
can assist in noble work for which the
government has made no provision and
probably can make none.
The Solace will perhaps do much more
good in the next few months for Amer
lean sailors and others who are sick
aboard ships and as a consequence of
to those who are injured in battle. 1t
is Surgeon General Reypen's intention,
when the Solace starts for Key West
in about two weeks, to fill her large cold
storage compartment with fresh beef.
spring chickens and other delicacies
which are practically unknown at Key
West.
The Solace will distribute these as
long as they last to the sick men of the
80 ships gathered there. Many of these
invalid seamen will be taken aboard
the Solace until they recuperate, the
ships mission of mercy not being post
poned until fighting occurs
This supply of good food must be OBJ
tanned through charitable contributions
of money, and the more money availa-
BILE the greater relief will be afforded.

FACTS ABOUT TORPEDOES
In All Cases the Controlling Agent IS
= Electricitv

Torpedoes are divided into two general
classes, stationary and movable. The for
mer consist of the buoyant and under
ground mine, while the latter class is sub
divided into the automobile and dirigible.
These terms have been narrowed until
now the fixed class is generally known as
the submarine mine, while the word tor
pedo is applied to the movable class, says
a writer in Golfers Weekly.
The buoyant mines are exploded in con-
tact with very close to the bottom or
sides of vessel under water while the
lance. All mines are divided into other
classes, which depend for their nomencla-
ture as to whether or not they are under
the control of the operator. In all cases
the controlling agent is electricity. The
depth of water in a harbor has much to
do with the form of torpedo used, and in
channels where there is less than 80 feet
on the bottom, has the shape of a segment
of a sphere with fiat bottom. The cleo
trical apparatus is attached to a buoy, an
chored to the case and submerged four
feet The explosive charge is generally
about 250 pounds of dynamite wet gun
cotton. The buyoant mine is hollow
sphere, constructed of steel having ring
site hole for loading and inserting the
electrical apparatus. Over this is fitted
cap for attaching the mooring chain and
cable. 1t is generally submerged about
four feet below low water. and the ex-
plosive charge is 100 pounds of dynamite
