THE EXPERIMENTAL STATION.
SITE Is SELECTED ACROSS
THE SEVERN.
Work For Experimenters For The
Naval Laboratory AT The
Naval Academy.

Attention is called to experimental
work preparatory TO the designing OF
machinery for vessels, and Admiral
Rae has this to say of the experiment
station to be established at the Naval
Academy.
1t having been found impracticable
TO erect the. building for this purpose
experimenting within the limits OF
the Naval Academy grounds. the board
appointed to select a site chose an
admirable one across the Severn river,
at a distance of only half a mile from
the Santee wharf, where the building
can be erected within 200 yards of
the dredged 30-foot channel, and with
very little dredging water enough can
be obtained TO allow q battleship to
approach within 80 feet of the struc-
ture.
TIE advantages of having the build
ing close to deep water are numerous
and obvious. Vessels of all kinds and
descriptions will always be required
at the Naval Aeademysfor the instruc-
ton of the midshipmen. During the
intervals when they are not needed for
purposes of instruction, they can
readily be moored alongside the ex-
pertinent buildingkand series of tests
made Of any new machines that might
be installed on board These tests,
being made on machines installed in
the ships and worked under service
conditions, would be of far greater
value in many cases than similar tests
made at the builders works.
On shore close to this site hill
about go feet high rises abruptly, form
ing an excellent location for a fresh
water reservoir. which can be filled
from wells. No less than four wells
have been sunk at random in this vi.
cinity, and at depth of from 10 to
| 80 feet good, fresh water has been
| found in every case Back from the
shore the land rises in every direction,
and will form well drained site fol
the erection of such dwellings as may
| be needed in future for officers and
employees.
1t is the desire of the bureau to start
as soon as possible with tests of tur.
bine machinery, using the fund ap
propriated by the last Congress fol
| the purpose, and erecting temporary
sheds on a part of the ground selected
| for the experiment, station. or else
making use of some available building
within the limits of the Naval Acad
envy. Specifications for a marine tur
bine engine suitable for the tests have
been drawn up, and circular letter
ON the subject addressed to every prob
able bidder. 1t is expected that al
least one suitable engine will be OF
tanned at an early date. Work of use
| full invention and improvements will
furnish constant employment for Q
number of experimenters, and repay
many times over the money expended
| by decreasing the cost of maintenance
of the fleet and increasing its eff
cheney. This naval laboratory will
keep on constant duty at the Nava
| Academy a considerable force of engi
neer officers.
Admiral Rae calls attention to al
| exhaustive report upon liquid fuel fol
| warships, and makes a plea for an as
sistant chief of the Bureau of Steam
Engineering. so that it may always
have an engineer officer on duty as di
recting head

THE POWER OF STEAM.
Many May See But 1t Takes Genius to
Realize.

When James Watt saw the steam
causing the kettle lid to jump up and
down he said There must be power in
that steam that 1t can lift such a
weight"
There was.
Millions prior to him had seen the
same phenomenon and regarded 1t as
an unexplained mystery.
Recent scientific research has put its
finger on the cause" OF Dandruff, Fall
ing Hair, and consequent Badness, and
has unearthed a tiny germ which eats
the life from the roots of human hair.
Newbro's Herpicide destroys this
germ and consequently restores the
hair to its natural state.
