SPEED OF SHIPS.
Methods of Men~urinG 1.-THE Use of
the Log.

Methods of Measuring It-Thc Use OF
The Log.
Glow do you ascertain the speed of
shipl" is a question frequently adj
dressed to naval men, and an explana-
ton will therefore probably be of in
terest to many readers. There are sew
eral methods, says Army and Navy Il
lustrated, the commonest and most an
Gent being by the use of the ''log. -
This instrument consists of three parts
the logship, the line and the marks.
The logship is a piece of wood about
half an inch thick and shaped like a
quadrant, with piece of lead let in
round the circular edge to make it float
perpendicularly in the water. 1t is hung
by lines at each angle, the three lines
being Joined together about two feet
from the logship. Two of the lines are
securely fixed to the ship and the
other has bone peg at the end, which,
being pushed into a hole in the ship,
temporarily fastens it there. From the
point of juncture of the three lines a
sufficient length is measured, generally
about 100 feet, to take the logship well
clear of the ships wash. This is called
the ''stray line and is marked with a
piece of bunting. From the bunting is
measured AZ feet 3 inches and the line
marked here with a piece of leather.
Then another Al feet inches is meas
ured off and marked with two knots,
then another space the same length
and marked with three knots, and so on
as far as seven knots. Half way between
each batch of knots one single knot is
made. The log line is then ready for
use.
The space between the knots is found
from the simple little rule OF three sum
As 3, 600 seconds (number of seconds in
an hour), rs seconds Qength of sand
glass;, 6,0S0 feet (number of feet in
nautical mile), length of like required
works out to AZ feet inches.
To use the log four persons are re-
quired-two men to hold the reel on
which the line is wound, the quarter
master to hold the glass and the mid
shipman of the watch to heave the log
The last named puts the peg firmly in
the logship and then gathers three or
four coils of line in his hand, sufficient
to admit of the logship being thrown
well clear of the ship. He asks, CLEAR |
glass, quartermaster? Clear glass, |
sirf' comes the reply, and overheard !
goes the loSsnlp and line, the reel rapidly |
revolving. Presently the MILDLY feels the |
piece of bunting passing through his
hand, and he gives the order, Turn -
The quartermaster turns the glass and !
watches the sand, while one ''reeler''
holds well over his head, so as to give
the line fair play. When the sand has
run out, "StopI' cries the quartermas-
ter. The midshipman grasps the line,
assisted by the other ''reeler" and looks
for the nearest knot, finding a single one
close to his hand. Then the line is haul
I'd in, and four knots appear, which sig
Nifty that the ship is going AZ knots
through the water. The jerk of the line
lraws the peg from the logship. which
now floats on its fat side and is easily
hauled in. When ship is going over
our knots, a IA second glass is used,
;he speed being double that shown by
;he knots on the line.

on Saturday and Sunday morning. and
even on the last mentioned date. Julia
English did not even then show any
of the symptoms Of plague, her pulse
still being slow and normal.
At about s o'clock Sunday night, an
other message over the wire came for
the doctor to hurry down to Kahului.
and DR.. Armitage got down as soon as
possible in answer to the call. On
his arrival 1t is said Miss English
greeted him with Good by doctor,
am going, I have pneumonia in the
lungs" She failed rapidly and in less
than twenty minutes after DR.. Ar
mitage got there she died. The doctor
said this was one of the most peculiar
cases he ever came across. There were
no outward symptoms 10 Indicate that
she had plague, although 1t has been
generally known to the friends Of de-
ceased that she had been suffering at
times with hemorrhage, and although
DR.. Armitage had been attending the
deceased for three years past. he
was never made aware of that fact
either by the deceased or by any Of her
relatives.
The remains of Julia English were
taken over to the morgue at the Kahu-
lui pest house and enclosed in coffin
and at 10 o'clock on Monday night, the
26th, the coffin containing her earthly
remains was put on the funeral pyre
made for the purpose and reduced to

KaIihi Fire Record.

A hogshead of water, spraying
pump and a garden hose constitute the
apparatus for extinguishing fires now
in the hands of the Kalihi detention
camp fire department and 1t may really
be said Of this fire apparatus that per-
haps there is none other that would
prove so efficient in the matter of al
lowing the flames of burning buildings
to have their own way. This mighty
fire eXtinguisher was taken to the place
near WilcoX's poi factory, Kalihi, early
Sunday morning to protect shack
near by from the flames of the rice
plantation buildings in which Kee
Mung, recent plague victim, is known
to have resided while sick.
1t was shortly after Z o'clock that
the torch was applied and, within the
space of half hour the two buildings
and outhouses were no more. The work
was very well done, whole case of
kerosene oil being used to start the
fire. j. d. McVeigh was in charge
and Chas. Clark acted as foreman.
Everything about the premises indi-
Gated hurried rounding up Of the
Cinnamon. Tools and plants were
found scattered all about. A fine mesh
fishing net, worth great deal OF
money, was removed to place of safe
ty. Bunches Of rice plants which the
Cinnamon intended planting, were
found on the edges of the rice field.
The house in Kalihi in which Lee
Ling lived, will also be destroyed by
the fire department of the nalihi de.
| tention camp.
