in contact with a great surface of wa ter, the forward movement of the boat is smooth
 The inner boat, being carried by the outer boat, does not come in con. tact with the water, and can offer no resistance to it's speed or momentum.
 The inner boat is similar in con. struction and size to the outer. and constitutes the living apartments and affording place to carry all the neces. sary appliances according to the usage of the boat.
 At suitable distance from each end of the inner boat two turrets are constructed that rise at right angles to the inner boat to a distance of a foot voluble hull. So that when running awash only very small portion of the boat is exposed to view, and no vital parts.
 The rear turrets constitute a pilot house and also afford an open. ing for ingress and egress to the inner boat, the pilot house being telescoped in the turret and closed with water. tight fastenings when boat is sub- merged.
 "The lower ends of the turreta are made flat and thin, and extend down. ward to poip' sufficient to hold a solid iron keel. which allows the re. voluble hull to turn between it and the inner boat. This keel steadies the boat latterly and adds stability to the inner boat, being rigidly connected at both ends.
 If in the rapid rotation of the outer shell the inner boat may have any in. clination to deviate from a level, by working the hydroplanes of the 5ne side adverse to those of the other their action on the water will easily and effectively arrest such deviatioIs
 From both ends af the inner boat there Is conical prov extending and coming to point which makes a most formidable weapon and can effectively be used in ramming other vessels. In these prows and in front of the for ward turret and rear of the rear tur. ret are torpedo tubes, using com. pressed air force.
 While the boat has been recom- mended for war purposes, its greatest service to mankind will be as a life preserver.
 All parts and appliances of this boat are made and put together from the inside, so that the boat can be re- paired at sea as well as in dry dock"

 He paused, and as the doctor nodded. the other brother continued: 1: We have came to you, doctor, to see if, with your hypnotic power, you have any way of-of-"
 He paused in turn and looked help lessiy at William.
 Let me tell you the facts, doctor, ' said the elder brother. "A private detective agency received a call over the phone yesterday from my father, so they claim there. He wished man sent to him at once on business, though he didn't say what business, and neither we nor they have the slightest notion of what it could be. One of their men, Draper, went right up. This was at ten o'clock yester- day morning. When he got there he found my father and Everett sitting in chairs facing each other, both of them with bullet-holes in their heads. as if somebody standing near the door had fired the two shots. Father was dead, but Everett was only stunned. He soon came to himself, but most unaccountably refused to say who did the shooting. He not only would not tell the officials-he would not even tell us when We called on him and begged him to do so. His only answer to our questions was, 1 cannot speak-please, if you love me don't ask me. If you were in my place you would do as l am doing. On that subject that is all he would say, but from certain insights he has given us into fathers business. the cautions he has advised regarding cer- tain securities, and other matters of that nature, We fancied we had struck lead which if properly worked out might result in something definite. . He looked at his brother, who was eying him doggedly. and paused.
 Why don't you tell him all?" said Henry, red in the face
 Well, went on William, then. ''our brothers reticence caused us-Henry and me-to be suspected, and but for the fact that We proved an absolute alibi, by the clerks in our office, we, ourselves. would have been arrested as the-the-''

 He approached with hushed breath and touched the shoulder of the figure nearest to him, shaking it slightly. Then he jumped to the desk telephone, sammoning the police It's William Marsh and his son." he cried over the wire, and they're both dead. Hurry up' There's pistol here. and they're shot. And I'm alone with the bodies hurry up!"
 The detective had just discovered that the safe looked as if it had been r1fied and that the watch chain of the younger victim had been broken near the buttonhole of the vest, when the door opened and a police lieutenant and patrolman came in. followed by the medical examiner. While the po- liceman, after searching the bodies with their eyes. began an inventory of the office. the doctor gave the older victim one glance and then bent over the younger.
 In fact the young man soon sighed and moved slightly. as a result of the physicians attentions. and presently was able to talk. Then the lieutenant asked him:

4 NOVEL SUBMARINE.
NEW TYPE OF UNDER WATER CRAFT INVENTED BY NEGRO.
Problem Solved If Principles Wort Out as Well as in Trial-Eoat Wi' Be of Great Service as
 Life Preserver.

Denver-Robert Lincoln, a negro in. Ventor of this city, has perfected an entirely new type of suhmarine craft, which is to be brought to the atten- ton of the War department by num- Der of capitalists who have become in- terested in the invention. If lincoln s principles work out as we'll in the trial boat asl they do in the model, there is no dpubt that he has kolved the problem of under water IAviga- tioil. He gives the following 5etails concerning his unique craft:
 My invention will not only Wroye an improvement in submarine nSFiga. tion, but will introduce new md&e of propulsion. which may be appli0 to all water craft, whether running or beneath the surface of the water, the inventor says.
 It can be steered or controlled With as much ease and safety in rougJ as in calm seas. Observation can be taken as accurately while the boat is wholly submerged as when on the Sur face by system of mirrors and re- fracted rays, only exposing an eight inch pipe to yiewl
 "The boat is agile, swift aqd durable. It will stand the pressure of the water at any depth. By the appli cation of hydroplA mes, keel, and tu| rets, we are able to do away with thu propeller and its ponderous machinery absolutely necessary to get speed from the style now in vogue.
