AGE OF ICEBERGS UNKNOWN
One Of the Mysteries Of the Sea
There Is Little Probability Of
Being Solved.

The age OF an iceberg is problemat-
ic. The berg that sank the Titanic
may have been forming on the coast
of Greenland when Columbus crossed
the sea, or even before that Then
again it may have been reared by the
elements since Peary's first expedi-
ton to the pole, but probably 1t ante
dated steamships by many years. In
1871, great berg appeared OF ST.
Johns y. F. Its pinnacle was fully
100 feet above the sea, and its base
formed glittering island in the mid
die of which, imbedded between two
hills of ice, were two ships side by
side. The masts were gone, but other
wise the upper works seemed to be
intact. Scattered about the decks
were various objects that might have
been the frozen bodies OF the crews.
All were covered with snow. Several
old sailors approached the berg as
near as they dared to and scanned
the ships through powerful glasses,
but could not see any name or any
thing to indicate their nationality or
business on the seas. There were no
signs Of life aboard them-nothing but
the motionless masses under their
white coverings. They were believed
to be part of Sir John Franklins ex-
pedition, and were seen at the mouth
of the harbor almost stationary for
several days. Then one morning the
berg was gone, and the ultimate fate
OF the derelicts it carried is still one
OF the mysteries of the sea.

PLAN A PERPETUAL CALENDAR
All Nations to Unite In Working Out
an Idea Long In Minds Of
Many.

A conference of all nations will be
held next summer at Geneva, Switzer-
land. to discuss suggestions for an in
ternational perpetual calendar. At that
time Leroy s. Boyd will present his
calendar, which has Is months OF %
days each. making q total of 364 days
in the year. The 365th day is not in
cluded in any month. but will precede
the first day of January and will be
called New Years day. A similar ar
rangement is made for leap years. The
S66th day Is not counted in any month.
but follows the last day Of December
and is called Leap Year day. The adj
ditional month is called Solaris. and
comes between June and July. AS an
illustration. the year 1916 is used, be-
cause. according to the present calen-
dar the first day OF that year will be-
gin on Saturday, which would become
New Years day under the perpetual
calendar. That would make the fol-
lowing day. Sunday, be known as Jan.
/, 1916. Every month would have the
same number OF days and every month
and every week would begin on Sun
day and end on Saturday. That would
: make the same date in each month
fall on the same day Of the week.
Such perpetual calendar would make
1t unnecessary to have a printed cal
endar for every month, because the
days OF each month are identical with
those Of the first month. One OF the
benefits expected to result from a per
petual calendar is that 1t will facili-
tate business calculations. Under the
new system a month will mean ex
actly % days and not 30 or 81 days
as at present.

He is old. he has worked for a living,
He has never gone back on a friend,
He has had very little for giving,
He has had very little to spend;
He has never cut up any capers,
He always has lived with HIS wife
He seldom Is named In the papers
And yet he's contented with life.
He has never bought Holsters and oysters.
He has never bought quarts OF cham
payne,
Nor mixed with the party that ROSTERS.
Nor stayed out at night 10 raise Cain
Why, his years have been totally quiet
And free from all stress and all strife.
He never with red pain ran riot
And yet he's oontented with life.
His face has the happiest wrinkles.
Its ruddiness comes from good health:
His eyes have the merriest wrinkles
That are not from run got by stealth.
His cheek bears a smile-gotten dimple,
He sometimes eats pie with knife.
His tastes are remarkably simple
And yet he's contented with life
He jumbles his tense and his grammar.
He often says had saw" and ''ain't."
He speaks OF a play as a "drammer.''
The clothing he wears IL quite quaint:
He has led the humdrummest existence
The kind that with dullness is rife
He barely has earned subsistence,
And yet he's contented with life.
Why. he's on good terms with HIS neigh
bors.
He doesn't know pictures or books,
He gets small reward from his labors,
He doesn't care much for his looks
Some places they'd say he looked funny,
Gle doesn't look so to his wife,
He thinks you can't buy Joy with money
And yet he's contented with life.

There is certain public man In
Washington long noted for his quaint
wit One day last winter, when the
sidewalks were quite slippery by rea-
son OF a fall Of sleet that morning.
this Official and his wife were proceed

picking their way. Just ahead of them
was little foreigner, a member of
one OF the legations, who was having
just as much difficulty as they in
keeping on his feet. Finally the lit
tie fellow slipped and fell, but not
with sufficient force to injure him.
His dignity. however, received a fright
full shock, for he sprawled over the
pavement in the most ludicrous way.
The lady could not restrain a smile,
perceiving which the irate foreigner,
as soon as he had picked himself up,
rushed forward ind presented the off,
cial with his card.
The recipient looked the card over
very carefully. BEG pardon" said
he. "but why am thus favored?"

The American gently handed back

cessity, since the fighing in he future
is likely to be at great distances.
Also, 1t has been found by experiment
with models that the protuberance
forward, such as distinguishes the bow
of the New York, gives the ship less
resistance in the water.
Another notable feature which dis.
tinguishes the New York from the
present dreadnaughts is the size of
the urre guns. Ten IA inch guns are
to be mounted instead OF the former
IL inch guns, giving considerable adj
vantage in fighting quality over the
older battleships. The New York will
also be fitted with four submerged
torpedo tubes and will carry a second
airy battery of twenty-one 5 inch rap
id-fire guns and ten small guns for
boat service and saluting purposes.
The New York and Texas win be the
first ships in the world to carry IA
inch guns. Some of the older battle
ships, of the class of the Oregon, Illi-
nois and Alabama. have 13-inch guns,
but all of the rest of the American bat
tleships are fitted with the 12-inch guns
The biggest guns now afioat in the
British Navy are the 1875 inch rifles
carried by the largest battleships.
The New York will be protected
with armor in plenty. not only over
her vitals but even the ordinary ex-
posed ends of the ship. The main
armor belt will be about eight feet
wide, with an average thickness of
twelve inches. Each turret will be
clothed in armor of more than a foot
in thickness and will be supplied with
ammunition by electrical hoists from
the magazines and shellrooms below.
The number and size of the guns in
the secondary battery are obut double
those on the battleships of decade
ago. 1t is those guns that must be re-
lied upon for very quick work In meet
ing the attacks Of the torpedo boats
and fast cruisers. Close subdivision
and strong bulkheads will form addi-
tional protection against mine and
| torpedo explosions.
Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1912-11-02

The grim looking plain ram now usu-
ally seen ia il hattieship il missing
from the New York, which has a bow
that looks not unlike the moro graceful
lines Of merchantmen.
Naval BATTLES with fourteen inch guns
are not likely to come 20 quarters close
enough TO allow Of any ramming, any
way, and the experts have figured out
that swelling bow gives q ship less
resistance ia the water than ram
bow.
Apart from its ten fonrteen-nch. A
aaliber rifles as they officially ,leslg-
aate these big guns the New York
will be long way from dcfenseless
even without this set OF the biggest
guns afioat
There are In addition two twenty
sne-inch submerged torpedo tubes on
each side OF the hull. twenty-one i've
inch rapid fire guns, -four three-pounder
saluting guns. two one-ponnder semi.
automatic guns for boats. two three-

or Gaynor and many other invited
guests.
The gigantic battleship slid down
the tallow-greased ways with the
lightness of frail lifeboat. AS the
big flag bedecked hull started towards
the water. Miss Elsie Calder, daugh-
ter of Representative William III. Cal
der. of Brooklyn, broke gayly berib-
boned bottle of wine against the steel
PROV and spoke words that gave the
vessel its name. Miss Calder was at
tended by Miss Kathleen Fitzgerald.
daughter of Representative John j.
Fitzgerald, as maid of honor.
The initial plunge Of the giant ship
inc the waters of the East river was
the signal for a deafening roar from
factory and ship whistles, intermingl-
ed with the enthusiastic cheers from
the throats of 100000 spectators. AS
it was hemmed in by a dozen navy
tugs and gradually towed to her moor
ing near Cob dock.
The battleship New York and her
sister ship the Texas, now nearing
completion at Newport News. will be
larger and more powerful than any
warships now afoat 1t was deemed
appropriate that theee exemplars Of
the highes skill of the shipwright and
naval design should bear he names
of two warships which covered them
selves with glory during the Spanish
American war.
The New York when in commission
will be manned by sixty three officers
and will have crew OF more than
1000 men. She is sos feet long. 90
feet SIS inches beam, SO that she will
have almost Is feet to spare in pass
ing through the anama Canal locks.
With all her stores aboard the New
York will displace about $4,000 tons,
or 100 Otons more than the largest
vessel now flying the American flag
One OF the features which attract.
ed the attention of the spectators
at the launching was the peculiarly
shaped swelling at the bow of the
New York The older ships were Mt
ted with a regular ram bow While
the general ram shape has been re
tanned in the New York. ii Is not SO
accontiated as in the older ships. The
change in design was made on the
| theory that the ram Is not a real ne
