Superintendent.

Washington, Oct. 8.-Col. A L. Mills,
superintendent of the United States
military academy, in his annual report
says that the health of the cadets and
the command generally throughout the
year has been very good, influenza be-
ing the only prevalent disease. The
efforts inaugurated last year to com
bat malarial fever by destroying mos
quitoes has been continued without re-
taxation and with excellent results.
No cases of this fever have occurred
SO far this summer.
"The discipline of the cadets says
Col. Mills, "as manifested in their
conduct and at drill and in military
exercises and attention to duty is sat
isfactory. There has been no relaxa-
ton of the efforts made to enforce the
regulations concerning hazing, and il
is a pleasure to state that no depart
ures worthy of notice from the spirit
of these regulations have occurred
during the past summer"

SUBMARINE VESSEL.
The Shark Arose and Rammed the Tor.
pedo Boat DahIgren.

New York. Oct. 8.-The submarine
torpedo boat Shark during trial at
Greenport, L. l., Wednesday, rammed
the torpedo boat Dahlgren. which with
her crew of seven men, barely escaped
sinking. Junior Lieut. G. A. Nelson
took the Shark out for a trial and
steamed out into the middle of the bay
making several quick dives. When
she reached the opposite shore she
headed back for a long spin under wa
ter. The boat poked her nose under
the surface and dived down So feet.
It was planned to run three and one
half miles an hour. Those on shore
who figured when she would rise We're
becoming alarmed when she did not
appear, when suddenly she rose less
than 20 feet from the Dahlgren, which
was lying at the dock.
Lieut.. Nelson signalled to reverse
her engines but her Roadway was too
strong and she crashed into the port
side of the Dahlgren, lying at the pier
Water Immediately rushed into the
Dahlgren and she settled alarmingly.
The sailors rushed for a collision mat,
a large piece of water-tight canvas,
which was placed over the gap where
the water was rushing in. The steam
pump was set to working and after
half an hours hard work, got control
of the water.
An examination showed that hole
four feet long had been torn through
the plates just aft of the engine ROOM
The only mark on the Shark was the
tearing of the paint from her ram-like
bow. Lieut. Nelson said afterward
that the strong ebb tide made the
Shark momentarily uncomfortable.
He had figured to run to the surface
a short distance from the Dahlgren
and prove the Sharks ability to run
close to an enemy and then back quick
ly away

1T is A TOTAL WRECK.
Trial of Prof. Laneley's Airship Was
Failure.

Whitewater, Va, Oct. 8.-The 60 foot
of years of exhaustive study in the
efforts Of Prof Samuel F. Langley, sec
rotary of the Smithsonian institute, TO
solve the problem of mechanical flight
in midair, was launched Wednesday
and the experiment carefully planned
and delayed for months proved a COM
plete failure
The launching took place at u: Is
o'clock Wednesday afternoon from the
superstructure of the house boat moor
ed in the Potomac river two miles
from this place. Fifteen minutes be-
fore that everything was cleared for
action. Prof. Manley was clad in his
aeronautical suit of white duck trou-
sers and cork lined jacket. Secretary
Langley, who has visited the scene Of
the test but infrequently since the
hOuseboat carrying his device and his
assistants was taken to Whitewater,
did not witness the failure of his ma
chine Wednesday, but remained in
Washington where he awaited the re-
suit. When all was ready Prof. Man
ley took his place in the navigator's
car which was situated close to the
gasoline motor. This motor was well
below the principal surface of the ma
chine. 1t was of the explosion type,
weighed 200 pounds and was designed
to generate approximately % horse
power. Long rods connected it with
the propellers whose blades were
about three feet long. The framework
Of Prof. Manley's car was covered with
canvas. Prof. Manley started the mo-
tor, which worked well, the revolu-
tons reaching 1900 a minute The
big machine moved easily along the ~
foot track, in the launching apparatus
mile breeze was blowing and for mo-
ment the machine stood up well. but
it's failure was Immediately apparent.
1t turned gradually downward. The
declination was so positive that Prof.
Manley saw at glance that but few
movements Of the second hand of the
stop watch he wore on his left knee
would be recorded before both he and
the scientific ship would be founder
ing in the waters of the Potomac.
Just before the machine struck the
water he shut off his motor, which had
worked admirably at the outset. The
machine disappeared beneath the
waves, but only momentarily The
machine is a total wreck.

INCREASES LIBRARY LEVY.
Dubuque Council Grants Request o.
Library Trustsss.


Special to Times Republican.
Dubuque, Oct. 2.-The tax levy for
the Carnegie Stout library will be In
creased this year from one-fourth %
one-third OF mill. This was decided
upon at meeting of the committee of
the whole last night at which the me1n-
bers of the board OF trustees Of tho "
hrary were present and also Senator
Allison, who briefly addressed the al
dermen upholding the request Of .thAs
board and advoca ting the cosnmittoo3
recommending the increased assess-
ment.
The income from the one fourth mill
levy which is in effect at present Is
about $4,000 while from the increased
levy 1t will be a little over $1,000.
The board ask the increase on the
grounds that the present income Of the
institution is not enough to maintain
It, The council. a. its meeting when
the tax was first voted for the sup
port OF the library included in the
levy that they would maintain the in-s
stitution. The trustees hold that the
present income is not sufficient and
ask that they be granted an increase.
For instance one of the arguments set
forth is that at present there are ten
times as many people using the Ii
brary as there were the old institution
yet there are not twice as many vol-
umes in the present building to sup
ply the people with.
