SPEEDY TORPEDO BOATS.
Record of the Hal Lung VIII PrOba-
bly, lie Broken by n New
EngIisl Font.

Since the celebrated Turbinia has
been robbed of her laureIs as the fast
est boat afloat by the English-huilt Hal
Lung, constructed for the Chinese gov
arnment the Englishm, n are banking
their hopes on the new boat NOW under
construction of the Turbinia type.
The Chinese boat is credited with
having made run Of 1s% knots
at an average speed of over 35
knots an hour. The highest speed
ealized during the run was 36.7 knots,
,r 1926 miles, per hour. The best run
II the Turbinia for mile is 35 knots, so
hat the Hal Lung has a substantial
cad
The most remarkable feature of this
ooat, next to her speed, is the fact that
she is fittedwith reciprocating engines.
At the time the Turbinia made her phe-
1omenal speed il was popularity sup
posed that il was due to her new form
of motor. In great part, no doubt, it
was, but there is reason 10 believe that
the excellent steam-raising qualities of
her rboilercontributedin no little degree
to the result. Relatively considered,
the performance Of the Turbinia was
more meritorious. for the reason that
she is only 40-torcraft, while the Schi-
chau boat is of $50 tons displacement,
or 4Ia times larger. The new and en-
larged Turbinias will be full-sized tor
pedo boats, and for this reason il is like
ly that they will surpass the Hal Lung
by a considerable margin of speed. Just
what the excess will be is a matter
which is exciting much speculation in
naval quarters.-Scientii American.

is TO find that New Orleans is further

opened this southern city will be only
4,047 miles from her western sister;
