RIDERS TUBULAR BOAT.
Motor Whirh May Drive Steamships
$50 Miles m Hour.

Herbert e. Rider. the ~well-known in
ventor, who was identified with the pre-
vailing underground trolley system. re-
Gently has perfected the nod Of a boat
motor which he believes will eventually
drive steamships at the rate of 100 or
100 miles an hour. This new motor con-
sists of a pipe running through the vessei
lengthwise below the water line and open
at both ends. Attached to the pipe about
o%ne-third from the after end is a cylinder
of the same diameter as the pipe and
about three times as long. The bottom
of this cylinder is attached to the main
pipe by a pipe curving toward the stern.
The cylinder. in operation, is charged with
gas ~vaporized from kerosene. When ex-
rloded by a sparker the force is exerted
through the pipe at the stern of the boat,
giving a tremendous kick, at the same
time causing a vacuum at the forward
end of the main pipe into which the wat
er rushes. This results in what the in.
ventor calls a continuous water cable.
An 1S-foot model of a boat Is to be ex-
hibited at the tSportsmaa's show. 1t has
three cylinders. two for driving and one
for reversing. The explosions can be reg
ulated al VI an automobile.

REFORMS FOR LIFE INSURANCE.

port to Legislature.
In a merciless and thorough arraign-
ment the insurance Investigating commit
tee of the New York Legislature review
ed the situation it has uncovered. After
making a number of recommendations for
reform the committee in its long-expect-
ed report summarizes the sensational
testimony it brought out and showed how
matters could be rcmedied.
Absolute prohibition Of campaign con-
tributions. strict regulation of all life in
suranCe Investments, limitation of new

policy holder in the election of company
offiCers-thesc are Il few of the proposed
cures.
Lobbying is denounced as pernicious
and needless in plain terms, and the Leg
islature is told that it owes it to itself
TO stop the practice. AS to campaign
contributions. the report says:
The frank admission that moneys
have been obtained for use in State cam
paigns in the expectation that candidates
thus aided would supper the interests of
the companies has exposed both those
who solicited the contributions and those
who made them to severe and just con-
dcmnation. The committee recommends
the passage of an uncQuivoca1 and dras-
tic measure to remedy this evil"
Matters demanding the consideration Of
the Legislature for the purpose of REM
edying ks ing evils and of establishing
more securely the business of life insur-
ance in this State are grouped under the
following heads:
!. Organization of life insurance cor
porations,
