A Long Trolley Ride.

One may now travel by trolley car in
eastern Massachusetts very long dis
tances in continuous directions. The
longest continuous trip that NAV he
made is that between New Bedford
Mass, and Nashua, N Fl. This route
takes one from the holiday shores Of
Buzzard's Bay to Mount Hope Bav al
Fall River, thence to Taunton alons
the right bank of the beautiful Tam
ton river the greater part of the way
and thence to Boston by way of Brock.
ton and Quincy. From Boston to Low.
ell there is choice of several routes
as far as Reading, by way of Lynn, Of
Maiden, of Medford and Winchester
or of Cambridge and Winchester. Al
Lowell the Merrimac river is crossed
to the left bank, and a return to the
right bank is made not far from
Nashua. There are also continuous
trolley car connections between Bos.
ton and Newburyport, the latter city
being reached by pleasant routes along
the Merrimac through the Whittier
country by way of Lowell, Lawrence
and Haverhill.-Harper's Magazine.

OFFICERS WHO ARE FAMOUS INVENTORS.

little or nothing. Nearly every i'm
proyement has been invented by its
naval officers. One instance Of naval
officer who received compensation for
an invention was that of Chief Con-
structor Wilson, now retired, to whom
the Navy Department paid s1o,00o for
an air port hinge. But most of the
work of naval officers brain have been
given ito the government free.
How much the inventive faculty Of
its keen-minded officers has meant to
the Navy Department is illustrated
IN the case of Lieutenant Frank f.
Fletcher, now on duty in the ordinance
bureau. 1t was said at a hearing be-
fore a committee of the Senate last
winter, on a bill to give naval inven-
tors compensation. that gun mount
of Mr.. Fletcher's had saved the gov
eminent more than 100000. All rap

gun-mount and the Worlds Fair Com

This mechanism is used for handling

guns. The army has also recently
adopted it. These plugs were formerly

Lieutenant Very, late Of the navy,
devised set of signals which are now
in use, not only in our navies, but in
all the navies of the world. Lieuten-
ant Herbert o. Dunn invented a stock

some naval vessels. Lieutenants Van
Duzer and Mason were the inventors
of an ingenious electric steering gear.
Lieutenant Fiske and Lieutenant Luz

Just before the war with Spain be-
gan Secretary Long recommended to
Congress an appropriation to build
big powder factory for making smoke
less powder At the same time he an
nounced that a satisfactory smokeless
powder had been made after many
years of experiment, and that this
powder was superior to the smokeless
uowders made abroad. Lieutenant j
b. Bernadou showed special aptitude
for this work and capacity for the solu-
ton OF the problems involved in the
prosecution of the experimental work
of this nature" said the report of the
inspector in charge of the torpedo sta
ton at Newport. This Lieutenant Ber-
nadou is now at Key West recovering
from wounds received while in COM
mand of the Wilslow at Cardenas. l.
was In fact Lieutenant Bernadou and
Commander G. A. Montgomery who
invented the smokeless powder just
adopted by the Navy Department. The
navy is particularly proud Of this
achievement. Foreign governments
possess a smokeless powder, but 1t
contains nitro-glycerine, which makes
it unreliable and dangerous, and
besides develops high heat
which soon ruins gun. All
countries have been working for the
ideal smokeless powder containing no
nitro-glycerine, and we are the first
to get it, AS in many other matters,
our Navy Department stayed behind
Europe in the adoption Of a smoke
less powder until we had one that was
perfect.
Lieutenant B. A. Fiske, prolific in
ventor in electrical devices, made some
| years ago a range finder for automat-
ically finding distances at sea. 1t is
one of the most useful contriyances on
| shipboard, and is worth an immense
sum TO the navy. Another of Lieut..
| Fiske's inventions was the stadimeter

The American navy has supplied
hundreds of the inventions which have
played important parts in the develop
ment of the modern navy The first
essential step the introduction of the
ironclad and the monitor, was Ameri-
can born. Another initial advance
quite as important In its way was the
construction of the modern high-power
rifles, requiring in their design high
order Of mathematical ability and an
intimate knowledge of the characters
tics Of modern steel. All guns in the
navy have been designed by Professor
Philip r. Alger, a former graduate of
Annapolis, who has since been trans
ferred to the corps OF the professors
OF mathematics in the navy, and who
is the highest authority on ordinance
matters in this country, IL not in the
world. Professor Alger received a di-
ploma from the Worlds Fair Commits
sion for his system OF gun construction,
now In use in the navy.
In order to make these guns efficient,
methods had to be devised for handling
them on board ship; opening and clos
ing the breach for loading, mounting
them on carriages for sighting and
training, protecting them with armor,
supplying them with powder and shell,
developing smokeless powder for their
use, designing primers, fuses, telescope
sights and hundred little accessories
used in connection with their services.
1t was also essential to provide the
necessary appliances for using the mod
ern automobile torpedoes to be fired
from our ships and torpedo boats; ap-
paratus for signaling orders from the
coming tower to the guns and to ev-
cry part of the ship, for measuring
| the distance of the enemy, for counter
mining harbors and clearing channels
and many other devices more or less d.
rectly connected with the ships as a
| fighting machine.

navies the government have had to pay
