ana safely. 1t WelHnoo IN WORKING Or
der and not including the tender from
80 to 1875 tons and had a tractive pow
or OF from $4,000 to 10000 pounds.
The period covering the last five
years has seen the introduction upon
our railways of new type OF loco
motive, modified from that Of French
designer. Mallet, and according to
Moodys Magazine it bids fair to be-
come standard on lines of heavy traf-
&c and steep grades.
The Mallet locomotive has an
enormous boiler, mounted on two
sets of engines, each with Its own
cylinders and driving wheels. Each
engine is complete in itself and Of APP
proximately the size and dimensions
of standard Consolidation.
1t possesses two points of advant-
age, namely, its ease and flexibflity
in taking curves and its greater pow
er. The former Is attained by arrang-
ing one set of engines with it's frame
hinged or pfvoted so that It may ad-
just itself to the curvature of the
track. The latter Is obvious. since
two engines are moro powerful than
one If enough steam Is supplied for
both.
Steam from the boiler enters the
steam chests and does its work in one
set Of cylinders, and when exhausting
from these does not pun out of the
stack directly into the air, but passes
through pipe having flexible Joint
into the steam chests OF the second
set of cylinders. finally passing
through suitable exhaust passages to
the smokegtack and thus to the at
mosphere.
One Of the engines. the second one
Just mentioned that receives the ex-
haust steam from the first, or high
pressure cylinders, is mounted on a
frame that can turn or swivel indie
pendently Of the rest Of the structure
The steam pipes leading to and from
this set Of cylinders are made with
flexible joints In ordert.to permit such
motion. This is the feature that makes
1t possible to operate, such long To-
connective, since q rigid wheel base Of
from 80 to 60 feet is out Of the cues
ton on q crooked road.
The length being greater than that
Of q standard locomotive, is draw
back. because turntables must be re-
built to accommodate these new mon
sters, as the engine alone is almost as
long as an engine and tender together
that were standard many years ago.
In addition to this. the men run
ming them md that It Is dif1cult to get
an unobstructed view Of the track
ahead on account of the great length
of the boiler. This was the case in
running through tunnels and snow
sheds where the smoke and gases
hang low and make seeing ahead a
very uncertain matter with an Or
dinaTy locomotive. 49,
On those portions Of the Southern
Pacific where oil is used as locomotive
fuel this difaculty is overcome by run
ming the new Mallet compounds back
ward, SO that the cab is at the head
end In running, thus giving the engi-
neer the best possible view in front
of him. The tender Is coupled to the
smokestack end of the engine, whore
the cowcatcher is usually placed. and
the oil is piped from the tender to
burners in the f1rebox.
The tractive force Of the Mallet To-
comotives varies from 10000 to 1867
900 pounds, equal to that of two Con-
solicitations of the largest type. They
have been built for eight of our rail

Mllllonths Of a Second.

In experiments with high-power ex-

i.ts have employed chronoscopes
which registered the velocity OF the

It is possible with this apparatus to

AND THEY ARE ONLY THREE.
Warrant Officer With a Crouch Reads
Between the Lines.

1t does seem singular how few
people there are who read the items
in the newspapers carefully. This is
noticeable when the readers have a
kick to make.
A communication has reached this
office taking exception to the state
ment that "over one hundred warrant
officers were to be transferred, etc.
| etc. The article referred to did
not read thus. as reference to our
files will show. The wording was
that orders had been received here
detaching "a large number of warrant
officers, and further on the reading
was zone hundred in all were ex-
pected to leave the Naval Academy. "
Had the gentleman, who seems to
have a crouch, read carefully, he
would have saved himself an express
sion of ill-feeling toward this paper.
However, for knowing a great deal
more about the ins and outs of naval
affairs than this paper, it is indebted
for the following:
A few evenings ago you published
an article to the effect that over one
hundred warrant officers were 10 be
transferred from this station. To be-
gin with there are just three warrant
officers on duty at this station, they
are not II rsnsferred in the WY you
mention, Lat travel on orders issued
by the Secretary of the Nay land
published daily in the Ne ' York
Herald) paying their own ira sporta-
tion and being paid mileage o1 COM
pletion of travel ordered.
The warrant officers are COM
posed of the following: Twenty-three
pharmacists (who do not. as a rule,
go to seal, siXty-five boatswains, one
and sometimes two on each battl q
ship and armored cruiser, sixty-six
gunners, two on each battleship and
armored cruiser, forty-nine carpen-
ters, one on each ship, the later ships
carrying two.
Il just mention this to show you
that there would be a good many ships
shy of warrant officers if, as you pub
lish, there were over one hundred on
duty at this station at the present
time. 1t is wonder to me that a
newspaper published in a naval town
should be as ignorant on naval mat
ter as The Evening Capital.
There is no use of you asking for
a name in connection with this, as
the writer does not desire it publish
ed"
1t is not hard to guess which of the
three warrant officers at this station
at this time is afflicted with the
worst ingrowing case of crouch.
Among all those whom our friend
where. oh where, are the
warrant machinists. These are not
in his list. Evidently
someone else besides the Capital does
not know his navy.

WORKING FOR REGATTA
Severn Boat Clubs 0Iting NyXt Thurs.
day Promises To Be Interesting All
Through

With most of the arrangements
completed by the regatta committee
and the crews working hard, there is
every indication of bowling success
when the Severn Boat Club holds its
annual outing and races on the Spa
next Thursday.
There will be two races between
the club fours "a senior and a junior
contest. Reich and Murphy will !
captain the two senior fours, which
will be for handsome bronze medals.
Each man in the winning four will
be awarded one of these trophies,
which are in the shape of Maltese
Cross, bearing on one side the in
scription -Four Dared Shell Race,
1910" and the monogram s. B. c."
on one side and the winners name
engraved on the other side.
There is now some talk of pitting
the winners of the Junior four
against the winner of the senior
contest and possibly having a con-
ISOLATION race between the losers.
The canoe contests and jousting
stunts will also bring in plenty of
sport for the spectators.

NO LIGHTS ON STREETS
Cause Broken Finger To Automobile
Driver

Digging sewers on streets neces-
states piles of material left over
night, and also bitches left where
work is unfinished. A city ordinance
requires all such distractions to be
lighted at night.
For some unknown reason this
has not been done of late and work
on sewers on st. Johns street and
on West street has caused several
accidents of a more or less serious
nature. Last night, while Mr.. X.
II. Lake was driving his automo-
bile out West street, not observing
one of these bitches, he accidentally
drove his machine into it. as there
was no light to guard the obstruc-
tion.
In righting his machine, Mr.
lake sustained a broken finger. The
city should look into the matter of
covering work and lighting it at
night.

TAKING PASTEUR CURE
Little Ruth Martin Bitten By Rabid Dog

About three weeks ago little Ruth
Martin, the small daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Edward Martin, Prince
George street was bitten by pet dog
in the neighbohood A few days ago
the dog died and its head was sent to
the Pasteur Institute, Baltimore, for
analysis. 1t was found the dog had
been afflicted with the worst case of
rabies.
Before it died the dog bit half
dozen other dogs in the neighborhood,
four of which the dog catcher. John
Fisher, killed. Upon the suggestion
of DR.. Kierle, in charge of the Pas
teur Institute, Baltimore. Ruth. the
little daughter of Captain c. Edward
Martin, was sent to Baltimore this
morning, her aunt, Mrs. John w.
Martin, president of the Board of
Managers of the Annapolis Emer-
gency Hospital, accompanying her.
The child will begin the Pasteur
treatment today. The dog that bit
her had the worst case of rabies.

STATEMENT ERRONEOUS
No National Change In Policy OF
Navy Department Toward
Naval Academy
CAPT. BOWYEP SUSTAINED
Wisdom OF Permitting Discipline Officers
To Control Situation

Concerning the present situation
between the administration at th'
Naval Academy and the authorities oi
the Navy Department, about which
much has been written lately, the
Army and Navy Register has this to
| say:
"Some intimation has been given
in the newspapers of a change in the
policy of the Navy Department in
the matter of Naval Academy admin
istration, and it has been stated in
Washington dispatches that the Sec
retary of the Navy will not hereafter
sustain the superintendent of the in
stitution at Annapolis in recommen-
dations affecting the dismissal of
midshipmen, as has been the practice
during this administration. There is
no warrant for any such statement.
''The story appears to be founded
upon the refusal of the Navy Depart
ment to approve the recommendation
of the academic board for the drop
ping of some six or seven midshipmen
of the class of 1908, who were found
deficient in the examination for ap-
pointment to the grade of ensign
and who, now by departmental ac-
tion. have been held over for another
year. The other instance in which
the Navy Department did not stand
back of the Annapolis recommenda-
tion was the>case of the senior mid
shipman, who compelled pie eating
contest and who was recommended
for trial by court martial for hazing.
THE naval authorities refused to
include that particular act as coming
within the category of hazing. Be-
yond this the Navy Department has
fully sustained the superintendent of
the Naval Academy and the aca-
demic board and is likely to do so.
1t is very grave question whether
the Navy Department had any legal
right to turn down the academic
board in the case of the midship-
men who were recommended to be
dropped. Certainly the law seems
to be sufficiently explicit on the
subject. 1t has been religiously
observed since its enactment in
1862, previous to which time a
board of officers passed on the quail
ifications of the midshipmen.
1.-The naval authorities have en-
countered no trouble since they have
made a practice of standing back of
the academic authorities ia matters
pertaining to discipline. Any other
policy has proved disastrous to the
peace of mind of the Secretary of the
Navy, because it established prece-
dents which influential people were
continually invoking in aid of their
young friends at Annapolis. 1t be-
came much easier to say that the au-
thorities at Annapolis had final au-
thority, and there have been abun-
dant evidences of the wisdom of per-
mitting the officers, responsible for
the maintenance of discipline among
midshipmen, to control that situa-
tion.

i'll at his home on College Green.
DR.. Cecil is suffering from what is
thought to be an attack of malaral

ident of the college has not been in
robust health, but kept up and was
actively engaged in attending the
duties in the absence of President
Fell, who is abroad.
Some few days ago, however, Dr.
Cecil was obliged to give up and is
now confined to his bed 1t is feared
that he will not be able to attend to
his duties. or be out for some few
