SPEED OF SHIPS.
Influence of the Depth of Water and
the Dragging From Below.

Influence of the Depth of Water and
the Dragging From Below.
On first thought the seas depth
seems of small Importance if the ship
finds depth enough to give her an easy
draught- II she can run free appar-
emily IT makes little difference whether
she has six feet or COO feet between
her keel and the bottom. Such an in
ference is erroneous, however, for the
depth exercises an important influence.
The British cruisers Blake ard Blen-
helm were expected TO run twenty-one
knots, but actually ran two knots less
in shallow water. They ran again
under the same power. but the depth
was between 135 and 165 feet, and
their speed was twenty-five knots-one
knot over the maximum calculation.
The difference in speed is attributed
to the influence OF the wave of trans
lation" displaced by the ship as she
moves forward, which acts as brake.
The nearer the ships keel to the bot
tom the stronger the friction. A ship
drawing twenty -seven feet Of water
(say a ship of 1900 tounage) feels
that friction over a depth Of $50 feet.
According to some calculations. the
dragging influence ceases TO be felt at
q depth equal to ten and one-half times
the draft If the ship stands high out of
the water.
A curious feature of the matter is
that the speed OF the ship is as i'm
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1912-05-04

portant an element as the depth or the
waterfall is to say. the influence Of
the depth on the ships speed is more
or less powerful in proportion as the
speed Is great. A ship increases her
speed more easily over deep water;
but, on the other hand, the faster a
ship runs the more depth of water she
needs to prevent the hindrance caused
by the dragging influence of the fric-
ton which is always felt when the
ships keel senses bottom. Running
ten knots an hour, ship must have
between twenty-six and twenty-seven
feet of depth or she is dragged from
below. II running twenty knots she
needs depth of 1o4 to 1o5 feet, and
when running thirty knots she feels
the drag over a depth Of nearly S24
feet.-Harper's Weekly.

will result in their capture. The other
men who escaped are Jim Sulli-

to inflict bodily injury. Anderson was
sentenced a short time ago to go days

PASSING OF BILLIONS.
The Tardstfek For Measuring Space Is

The Yardstiek For Measuring Space L.
One Light Year.
If you were asked the distance from
San Francisco to London you would
not say so many inches, but would give
it in miles. If asked the distance from
the earth to the sun the answer would
be In millions Of miles. If asked the
distance to the nearest star the answer
would not be in millions or billions,
but trillions of miles, Even this reply
would be too long. Twenty-Five mil
lion million miles twenty-five trillion)
are too many words, so it is shortened
to light years. The yardstick for
space is not billions or trillions, but
one light year.
This il the difference traversed In
one sidereal year, 1,55S 149 seconds,
by light moving with its sets and fixed
specific speed of 1888 miles per sec
ond. Distances traversed by space
energy, given by time as In minutes,
hours or days, would soon run into
cumbersome trillions, so that the time
interval used in physics, mathematics,

Say one second. Then while you are
speaking radiant energy has trayersed
a distance nearly equal to a line long
enough to reach around the equator of
the earth eight times.
Twenty-Five thousand billions, the
distance of the nearest known star, is
condensed in 4.26 light years. This is
the passing Of miles, for the mile in
space is about equal to the one-mil-
lonth part Of the thickness of a spid-
er's thread in comparison with the
length Of the room you are in.
Draw a scale with the distance in be-
tween the earth and sun equal to three
inches, then the distance Of the near.
est star would be thirteen miles. Space
traversed by miles per minute would
be almost without meaning, for to 20
out to the nearest star sun at one mile
per minute would require 47,52S, OOC
