that many engineers do not hesitate 70
describe II as one Of the leading inven-
tons Of the century, which rs destined 10
revolutionize marine propulsion and in
augurate complete change in the ship
building and shipping trades--a change
that may not improbably be as great I'm
its way as the substitution Of steam for
sail shipping.
For speed there IS certainly nothing
aloat that can touch the Turbinia.
The tremendous impression that this lit
tie craft made az the great naval review
last year is sil fresh in the public
memory. but she has since improved
upon this; and on some OF tho private
runs she has latterly taken off the Tyne
she has easily attained So knots. and the
Turbinia is only small experimental
launch Of 100 feet in length and weigh
ing 4j IL tons, all told. With a longer
ana q bigger vessel. It Is reasonable to
assume that a greater speed still can be
attained. and Mr. Parsons himself en-
tertains no doubt that a vessel can be
built to steam at 40 knots As the de-
str0ycrs this new company Is now build
ing are twice the length and six times the
weight Of The Turbinia, and will have
engines OF five times the Turbinia's
horse power. it will be interesting 10
note by how>much they will exceed the
Turbinias speed. As a matter Of fact,
the two destroyers now building are
guaranteed 10 produce a minimum speed
Of So knots; but as they will embody
many improvements which Mr. Parsons
has been able to evolve during his ex-
periences with the Turb.nia, and are
10 be much larger and more powerful,
We understand that there are reasonable
expectations Of attaining 20 knots

NEWS NOTES
FOR WHEELMEN

There is az last chance for some street
improvements In this city. The Street
Committee has appointed a sub commit
tee 10 meet the cyclists and have a talk
so that some plans can be made and
when Improvements 10 certain streets are
ordered the needs OF wheelmen will have
some recognition.
They are going to commence putting IN
some sooth cutters on each side OF the
Boulevard in front OF the lake and II Is
hoped that this small improvement will
lead TO better roads.
on account OF the reckless riding and
driving on the Boulevard and west Broad
street the Board OF Governors OF tho
Richmond League OF Wheelmen are going
10 ask permission 10 have some signs pue
up. Ride and Drive TO the Right" SO
that some stop may be put 10 the reckless
racing on both sides OF the Boulevard so
that those who go out for pleasure may
do so with some degree OF safety. Many
ladies have given up going out to tho
lake as 1t is really dangerous 10 ride
there, as so many ride with utter disre-
gard to the common rules Of the road

The city OF Springfield. Mass. Is per-
haps the hrst In the country TO provide
bicycle storage rooms In the public
schools. In remodeling two OF the prin-
clpal buildings recently. the school COM
missioners had a room sixteen feet wide
by thirty long set apart and a long row
OF holders placed on each side, says Side
paths. In the case OF each there is an
entrance TO the bicycle rooms on each
side, ono for the boys and one for tho
girls. The idea Is a good one and might
well be followed In other cities. Taking
into consideration the number OF pupils
who ride their bicycles TO school nova
days. II seems strange that such provls-
Ion for the storage Of machines has not
been generally made. Almost every
school building has space In It's basement
where the bicycles are stacked against
one another in an out-of-the-way corner,
but the simple matter Of providing a
rack TO keep them from being injured
has been curiously neglected II IL

sized towns might asiiats with sdyan-

turing vibration such as is experienced
In an Atlantic greyhound. and still more
In the presont-day torpedo destroyer.
And. finally. it needs TO be said IN
order 10 remove q common misappre-
hension. that the steam turbine can be
stopped and reversed with even greater
facility than the twin-screw engine. The
inventor has worked al this problem for
wears. and he has succeeded so wei that
the Turbinla can be handled at will with
absolute precision. She can DO brought
to a standstill within forty seconds, for
one Of the propellors on the center shaft
Is used solely for reversing, and can be
set in operation by the reversing gear
even before steam IS shut or on the
driving propelers. and, Furthermore,
having three shafts. by shutting off steam
on one shaft and keeping the other at
work while using the reversing propeller,
she can be quickly turned and handled
In any direction while going at fun speed.
