A SELF-PRoPELLING BOAT.

In the Christmas number of Pear
sons some interesting particulars are
furnished by Herbert c. Fyfe of craft
that propels itself, and to which the
inventor, Mr.. Linden of the zoologi-
cal station at Naples, has given the
designation CT the Autonaut. WITH
out the help of engines, or steam, or
electricity, or man power" this curl
ous vessel makes Roadway against
wind and wave at speed, it seems, of
from three to four miles an hour.
Singularly enough, too, the rougher
the sea the faster she moves-the ex-
PLANTATION being that she is propelled
by the action of the waves. The Sc
cret of her propulsion lies in a couple
of pieces of apparatus, not unlike
gridirons. fixed, one at the bow and
the other at the stern, about level
with the keel. These strips of steel
are what the ingenious inventor calls
"feathering fms" and it is stated that
he was led to his discovery by closely
observing the motion of fishes fins,
especially the dolphin's tail. In the
case of the Autonaut these so-ealled
fins" are moved by the waves in one
and rebound back of their
own elasticity. Hence, it is explained

AIRSHIP FOR WAR DEPARTMENT
Governments Practical Encourage
ment to Prof. Langley.

The war Experiments recent appro-
priation to Prof. Langley for the con-
struction of a man-carrying airship
for military purposes has reminded
many interested persons of the scores
of extravagant schemes which have
been Matched out by heat of the boil
ing Yankee brain since gossip first
learned that our military authorities
yearned for an aerial as we'll as ma
rine navy. The notion has been we'll
nigh universal among latter-day fly
ing machine enthusiasts thatAthe first
airship to be launched for practical
purposes would be vessel of war, but
these genuises have disagreed as to
whether the pioneer aerial war ship
should be based upon the principle of
the purely mechanical aerodrome of
the dirigible elongated balloon, of the
captive kite, of the rocket or of the
soaring apparatus. During practically
every congress of recent years some
good-natured legislator has been
leased into introducing a bill appro-
priating money for flying machine of
some sort but needless is it to state
that no such bill has ever made en-
couraging progress along the congress
sional gauntlet.
The decision of the war department
authorities to perfect the mechanical
aerodrome was not reached without
considerable controversy as to the
relative merits of this principle and
those of the dirigible balloon being
ndustriously experimental necessarily
accentuates Yankee originality and
ambition to show the world more of
our ability to walk as victors in paths
unbeaten. The balloon will doubtless
remain as a valuable accessory to our
signal corps, but it has long been rec
ognized that, although an important
vehicle of defense in some emergen-
cies, and an all-seeing factor in aerial
espionage, it is, nevertheless, in con-
tinual peril, presenting a conspicuous
target to the enemy and moving but
slowly across the heavens The first
use of an aerodrome would not be to
take part in actual battle, perhaps,
so much as to serve as vehicle of
communication. One might be guided
over hostile territory, upon which it
might drop high explosives, destroy
ing Notifications, arsenals, vessels of
war, bridges or other means of com
munication. A machine based upon
Prof Langley's aerodrome would be
very much less likely to be hit by
gun aimed from the earth than would
a balloon, on account of it's much
smaller size, combined with its ex-
IRENE speed, which some aerodyna-
mists prophesy will one day reach as
much as 200 miles an hour. Owing to
the small area exposed by the light
frame and vital parts, it will be very
difficult to hit, and if struck the
chances are that a projectile would
pass through one of the thin cover
ings of the wings without SCATTERING
any other part. 1t is believed that an
aerodrome will carry guns heavier
than a Maxim repeater, which weighs
about go or 20 pounds. Washington
