NEW GREEK FIRE MARVEL
OF NAVAL EXPERIMENTS
Water or Chemicals Fail to Extin'
guish Death Dealer

BERLIN May 4.A short time ago. as we
learn naval circles, says the Boreen Courier
the emperor witnessed demonstrations with
terrible means Of warfare which is likely to
be of great Importance in future naval battles.
1t is a new kind of so-called Greek fire that
has been invented by German officer. 1t
differs from the old Greek fire in that 1t
is not employed in the incendary shells by
which ships were once upon time de-
stroyed, but is poured out on the water and
directed against hostile vessels. The fluid
which occasions this fire. and the compost
ton of which will not be disclosed, is Of
such a kind that it floats on the water, ana
II is impossible to extinguish the flames,
In experiments at which the emperor was
present and which took place in the Tegel
and White Lakes, all kinds of extinguishing
materials were used to destroy this new
Greek fire. but neither water nor any chemical
means had the slightest success. Similar
means based upon the same principle, We're
used by the English and Spaniards in FORMER
times, and by the Japnese in the last sre1t
Fluid which can be directed" over the sur
face of the water over the distances which
SEPARATE hostile fleets in modern naval battles
is certainly a wonderful discovery. 1t is
interesting in this connection, that something
which otherwise answers TO the description OF
the Borsen Courier was publicly exhibited as
a pyrotechnic display last summer on the
White Lake, which is in the northern suburb
of Berlin.

Canine Sticks to Post Despite

Kip, a bulldog belonging to DR.. F. l..
Lewis, leave its post when the doctor s
barn at 1898 Denivon avenue, s. W.,
was badly damaged by the fire last
night
A short time before the fire started
Isaac Jones, an employe of the doctor,
found the animal running about the
yard, and chased it back into the barn.
While the family was at supper Mrs:
Lewis looked out of the window and
discovered flames on the roof of the
barn. She called her husband and an
alarm was sent in.
DR.. Lewis with Jones hurried to the
barn, hauled out the auto and then led
out the horses. The dog growled onni-
nously, and the smoke pouring into the
room drove the would-be rescuers out.
The firemen then tried their streams of
liquid persuasion, but Kip only lodged
and ducked and growled.
Long after the fire was extinguished
and the firemen had gone away some

the back porch, and opening the door
found Tbedraggled dog. Kip had
decided that the back porch offered bet
