New Arrangement of Stars in the Flag
"A HISTORICAL AND SYMMETRICAL PLAN
TO BE LAID BEFORE CONGRESS.
esSS2o

For years the lack Of symmetry and
historical significance in the arrange
ment Of the stars on the blue field of
our national flag has been a subject
Of comment among observing patriots.
Fourteen years ago j. r. S~tahlnecker
Of Silverton, Col, commenced working
out the idea, but never arrived at a
satisfactory solution until recently,
when a design was evolved, and the
question Of it's adoption will be
brought before congress.
1t a a work requiring more
thought and study than at first ap-
pears. With a given number of stars
to get a design that would commem-
crate the greatest number of events
In the history of the country and
yet secure a symmetrical and artis-
tic effect, was the task Mr.. Stahlneck-
er set for himself.
The center group of thirteen stars
represents in his flag the thirteen
original states at the close of the
Revolution, or at the time of the adop-
ton of the constitution. The outer
circle Of twenty-three stars represents
the states admitted between that time
and the close of the civil war. The
great seal of the United States is
represented by the center group of
thirteen and the encircling wreath of
twenty-three.
It is intended that these three great

From the idea of putting a man in
side it to that Of placing a man out
side it, the transition was easy; and
1t then became a problem to give him
a safe shelter, of locomotion,
OF submerging and of discharging the
projectile.
To accomplish these essentials he
has devised a c~igar-shaped boat of
bronze plates, about ten feet long,
three feet deep and five feet wide.
Beneath this is suspended the White
head torpedo in a frame and it is pro-
PEELED by compressed air when the
operator has approached near the
mark.
When in the boat the operator lies
on a cradle astride of Its support.
Padded prongs on the cradle curve
over his shoulders and hold him in
place, providing also a purchase for
his arms when operating the lever in
front Of him.
He wears a waistcoat made Of two
thicknesses of alright material, to
which is attached a small mouth tube
by which it is inflated. 1t serves as
a padding for the body while the op'
orator is in the boat and also Is a life
preserver in al emergency.

One man with a deadly torpedo
Coating about beneath the surface of
he water.
The torpedo charged SO that it will
blow a great warship to distinctions;
the man provided with means by
which to discharge his dangerous
weapon In a way to do the most
harm.
Such is the latest Of all torpedo
boats-a one-man affair, not larger
than a large fish, and yet as effective
IN its purposes, If the theory of its
inventor is correct, as n of the Hol-
land submarine boats.
The man who has perfected this
offensive and invisible destroyer is
Thomas j. Moriarity, for many years
the mechanical expert in the employ
Of the United States government at
the torpedo station at Newport.
Mr.. Moriarity was long ago i'm.
pressed with the idea that the only
way by which to make the action of
the torpedo actually certain was to
put an experienced operator inside it;
for, while it's automatic machinery
operates with almost human intelli'
Sence, there Is no certainty that it
Will on long ranges do exactly what is
required of it.

A Calcium Carbide Lamp Traps Vine
yard Pests.
For several years past the vineyards
in the important wine growing dis
trict of Beaujolais have suffered great
ly from the attacks of numerous flying
insects, the most important of which
is known as the pyralid. Last year,
says the Electrical Review of London,
a series Of experiments was carried
out in one Of the large vineyards to
see if the insects could be caught by
bright lights burning at night. An
apparatus was constructed, consisting
of an acetylene generator holding
about six ounces of calcium carbide.
Over this was a circular metal dish
over this at a height of about eight
inches a single acetylene jet giving a
small, bright light at about ten candle
power. This light the carbide was suf-
ficient to keep burning for six or eight
hours. In a basin a layer of water was
placed, and on top Of this a layer of
kerosene or some other cheap oil, of
which about two fluid ounces were re-
CURED. These machines were set up
about $50 yards apart and were set
in motion at dusk. preferably on dark
nights. On The first night n lamp
caught 1900 pyralids and 21S moths
OF other kinds. During July the lamps
averaged 5000 insects per lamp per
night. The expense of the lamps is
reported to have been two cents per
night each, or about two and a half
cents per night per acre. 1t is said
that this method Of catching noxious
insects is eficacious than any
method which has been tried before

Air is admitted through the real
mast and circulates throughout the
boat. This air tube is, however. auto
matically closed when the boat is be-
meath the surface Of the water, and
the coming tower is completely ov-
cred by e a Of a hydrostatic piston,
open to the water at the bottom of
the boat, the pressure of the water at
the increased depth forcing up the pis-
ton, which %actuates a lever to force
a valve over the air tube opening,
thus preventing the entry of water
through it.
The same motion of the piston op-
crates levers connected to a valve in
the compressed air tank in the bot
tom of the boat, opening it and thus
allowing a fine stream of air to issue
therefrom into the boat, and supply
ing the operator with fresh air. AS
the boat again reaches the surface the
pressure on the hydrostatic piston is
released because there is less depth
of water and the air tube is again
opened and the air tank valve closed.
The torpedo is fired by compressed
air, but on leaving it's casing the pro
polling mechanism of the p~rojectile is
set in motion, and it starts off under
it's own power for the mark.
