SHIPS THAT WILL NOT SINK.
Invention That Promises to Revolu-
tiOnize Naval Warfare.

II all that is claimed for the idea
proves correct there will be a revOiu-
ton in the work of ship-saving in the
near future. Indeed, it promises TO
revolutionize naval warfare, for it is
claimed for this new invention that
ships can be kept af1oat even after be-
ing rammed- In fact, they can be
made practically unsuitable. The in
vention is the outcome of an idea for
forcing water out of a ship by COM
pressed air, thus permitting the holes
to be repaired from within. The idea
is very simple one, and was suggest
ed to Commodore Marsh, of the battle
ship North Carolina, lying off New
neer engaged in the construction of the
New York railway tubes under the
Hudson river
All the experiments made proved en-
tirely successful The seacocks were
opened up on the Carolina and water
was permitted to fill one of the water
tight compartments. Compressed air
at a pressure of II pounds to the square
inch was then forced into the com
partnent through a small opening III
back into the river. simultaneously
with the 12-pound pressure into the
Water-lOgged compartment compressed
air at Z pounds pressure was driven
into all the surrounding compartments
and 3-pound pressure into the next
series of compartments. this being nee
essary to prevent the pressure on the
original compartment buckling the
sides and the deck.
Commander Marsh is most enthusf-
astic regarding the idea He points out
that the invention now enables them to
do repairs to the hull below water line
from the inside, either after collision
or during a naval battle Ships" he
says. ARE now for the first time prac-
tfcally unsuitable, for the water-tfght
compartments alone will not keen a
ship af1oat indefinitely. There is al
ways leak somewhere. All that is
necessary he continues. lis to install
a system Of pipes and gauges and at
tach them to the compressed air plant.
Every warship already has such a
plant for the purpose of blowing off
poisonous and explosive gases, which
can be utilized for driving out the
water. The whole cost for a battleship
is about 80 pounds. How is that for
low insurance premium against the
sinking of a batt1eship worth 1000 600
pounds ?''-London Chronicle.

Ex-Governor Bailey Speaks.
The big crowd prepared to go.
They were called back by President

and sent the regular forces of the

AFTER looking over the events of the
past, declared Bailey in a loud tone,

The psychology of insurgency pre-

Impotence, we destroy system and

Friends of free government since the

Woven who bear children and re-
