As the heavy metallic torpedo boat

The passengers are seated in cock
pit. entirely open at the top and sides,
and yet not drop OF water comes
within foot or eighteen inches Of the

the inventor, L. A. Carpenter Of Beach

pointed boat throws the water aside.
or, to use Mr. Carpenters own words,
Plunges Into a Tank of Water.
"the speed OF the boat as it enters the
water is about fifty feet second, or
thirty miles an hour. which enables
the boat to travel its own length in
one quarter Of second. This takes
them through that part Of the tank
In which they are totally submerged
a distance of thirty feet, in less than
one-half second.

five feet, gives the water but about
