New Naval WEAPON.


Admiral Makaroff of the Russian
navy, has invented an instrument
which, it is said, will play great part
In any future submarine warfare The
instrument Is known as a radioson,
and several successful tests have al
ready been made with it at Cronstadt.
BY connecting it with the military tele-
phone the approach of torpedoes to
Cronstadt was clearly heard by an of
ficer in the war department at St.
Petersburg.
The main function of the instrument
consists in pointing out the exact loca-
tion and registering the speed of tor
pedoes, and experts claim that moth
ing can prevent it from doing this
work properly. 1t will reveal they
say, the presence of the enemy just
as well during the most stormy night
as during a calm day, and it will also,
if desired, destroy the torpedoes either
automatically or at the will of an Of
ficial, who may be several miles away.
The news of this invention has
caused sensation in naval circles in
Europe, and 1t is hoped that further
tests will soon be made with it

Balloon voxaaea Over Oceans.

La Nature gives an illustrated ac-
count of the latest methods for con-
trolling the flight of balloons in sea
voyages. In order to prevent the bal
loon from being depressed by a
shower of rain it's top terminates in
q cone. Instead of trailing single
rope there is system composed OF a
trailer floating at the end of long
rope behind the balloon and a balance
weight hanging in the water by a
shorter, nearly vertical. rope, the re-
sistance of the latter body being ne
cessarily less than that of the former.
The sea itself furnishes an inexhausti-
BILE supply of ballast and this can be
drawn up to a cylindrical reservoir,
suspended above the balance weight,
suction hose being used for filling
the reservoir. Two deviators are en-
ployed for directing the course of the
balloon, one of which serves for an
giles of about 800, the other for an
giles as great-it is said as 7O0 or
so.

POPULAR SCIENCE

paratus which may answer the pur-
pose fully as well as a new boat, and
at far less cost. 1t Is nothing less
than gasoline motor so arranged
that it can be secured to the rear end
of small boat, with the fuel and
electric batteries stored in casing
which answers as a seat for the per-
son controlling the motor and steering
the boat. The motor casing is cut
away in the picture to show the meth
cd of mounting the propeller shaft and
connecting the motor.
or course this boat is not intended
to compete with the high-speed and
higher-priced craft which the modern
boat builder is now able to produce,
but it is intended for cruises or fish
ing trips about the rivers and lakes
of the country. To place the mechan-
ism in position on boat it is only
necessary to store away the batteries
and gasoline reservoir beneath the
seat and suspend the motor casing
over the stern by the hooks and
clamps provided for the purpose. The
inventor is Irwin r. Miller OF St
Paul, MINI.

Improving Steamship Screws.

A phenomenon known as "cavita-
tion" has lately come to be recognized
as one of the most important causes of
loss of efficiency in the driving screws
of steamships. When the velocity of
the screw is Increased above a certain
limit a cavity is formed in the water
inside which the screw revolves, and
further increase of power then
causes no increase of the ships speed
Mathematical investigation tested by
practical experiments, has shown that
cavitation can be avoided by preserv-
ing a certain ratio between the re-
sistance and the propelling surface
concerned. Upon this principle the
speed of some vessels has been great
ly increased by simply changing their
driving screws.

Aluminium Wires.

One of the growing uses of alumni
mum is as substitute for copper wire
in the transmission of electric power
over long distances. Alloyed with one
and one-half per cent of copper, it is
thus used in transmitting $4,000 horse
power from the Snoqualmie Falls to
the cities of Tacoma and Seattle, a
distance of more than forty miles. This
alloy is at the same time SO light and
so strong that spans of $50 feet are
safely made. thereby effecting a great
saving in the number of poles needed
on the line. But this applies only to
bare conductors. Where insulated ca
bles are required, the increased diam
eter of the aluminium conductor in
wolves increased cost and where lead
is used fer insulation the gain of
weight obtained in bare aluminium ca
hles is cancelled.

The transmitter and receiver are ar

SO that they may be readily connect
ed to the locknut strip of terminal

desired, the mere attaching of the
clips giving the necessary call to the

Mexican Substitutes for Cotton.

The attempt to utilize two native
delicate f1bres as substitute for cot
ton in many of its uses seems to be
progressing, says Modern Mexico. The
plants produce cotton of two class
es; the smaller one gives cof-
fee-colored seed and grows and null
tiplies without special care all the year
round; its fibre is thicker than that
of the common cotton. The seed of
the other plant is of a light blue color;
this plant requires special cultivation
and irrigation, without which it will
give one crop in the year; the fibre
is finer than the other, and as fine as
the finest cotton. Hilario Cuevas of
San Luis Soyatlan, in the Mexican
State of Jalisco, who first expert
mented with these two plants is dis
tributing seeds all over the hot lands,
for which it is most suited.

AUTOMOBILES CARRY MAIL.
Their Efficiency demonstrated by
Trials Made in Michiuan.

A series of extensive experiments
with the automobile in the free rural
mail delivery service, which has just
been completed in Lenawee county.
Michigan, seems to remove whatever
doubt has existed as to the practical
bility of adopting motor vehicles on
routes which defy the horse.
These tests extended over period
of one month and the routes covered
varied in length from ten miles to
twenty-nine miles. The weather was
at times very bad, the snow was often
from six to eight inches deep and
much ice was encountered.
Yet, notwithstanding such adverse
conditions. the report of Postmaster
Priddy, who supervised the tests.
shows that on the twenty-nine mile
route the time required to make 125
stops for delivery and fifty-nine pick
ups" during which approximately 500
pieces of mail matter were handled
was less than four hours or about one
half that occupied by the carrier with
his horse. The amount of fuel con
sumed was only nominal.

toward the automobile heretofore had

Simple Fountain Pen.

The fountain pen here illustrated by
drawing from the Scientific Ameri-

ducing an effective yet inexpensive
instrument, which could be readily
filled with ink, and which, when in
inverted position in the pocket, would
prevent leakage of the ink The pen
consists of an ink holding barrel
pointed at one end and provided at
the other with a bulb. into which ca
pillary tube projects. This tube forms
an opening in the pen, through which
air can enter the chamber when the
pen q in use and permit an even
flow of the writing fluid through the
small opening at the writing point. To
fill the pen the point is inserted into
the ink. and suction is applied to
the opposite end of the barrel To
