COLOR BLINDNESS in NAVY.
Hard To Determine-Its Origin.

The origin Of color blindness - a
times hard to determine. 1t has al
ways been a factor in marine disas-
tiers, and Passed Assistant Surgeon
G. b. Tribble, u. s. ~, suggests
certain tests to determine its exist
ence in individual cases. He says
1.-THE question of the origin 81
color blindness has frequently arisen
In the case Of man taken into the
service and passing successfully when
examined each enlistment, and in the
case Of midshipmen, each year, and
then who tails, for example, on COM
ing up for re.enlistment or promo
ton, il would seem that either ac
quired color blindness is m IRE common
than supposed, or that there has been
an error in the tests, unless the con-
dition is temporary.
"The existence of other than tenn
porary color defect with the posses
sion of normal vision would indicate
eongenital color blindne SIS, and the
mere fact of its late discovery would
not mean that it only recently occur
red, it would mean a previous failure
10 diagnose 1t.
DR.. Tribble says that, no matter
what theory of color vision is accept
ed, for practical purposes in the SER
vice the following requirements are
imperative l. That there be no
confusion between red and green
lights. 2. That red be not confused
with white. 3. That green be not
confused with white. 4. Thst the
red rays from the extreme red end of
the spectrum be perceived. g., no
shortening of the red end of the spec
trum. These rays are the most pene-
trating and are seen first.
5. That those be rejected who are
unable to distinguish red, green and
white at normal distance or who are
unable to distinguish, red. green and
white when the illumination is re-
duced. This would exclude those
with deft ctive central color percep-
ton and those with insensitive reti-
mas.

NEW ISLAND IN THE ATLANTIC.
Land Discovered" About I6 Miles
East Of Sable Island.

A new island he's been found in the
Atlantic near Sable Island, according
to the reports made to the Marine
Department at Halifax and commune
Gated by them to headquarters at OF
iowa.
The information comes from Cap
tain Anderson, OF the Gloucester fish
ing schooner Lizzie Griffin. He re-
ports the new land sixteen miles east
of Sable Island. When Captain John
son, Superintendent of Lights, heard
of the discovery, he interviewed
Captain Anderson, who informed him
that the report was quite correct !;
that it was dry bar and stood about
ten feet above high water.
Captain Anderson has cruised
around Sable Island for many years
and he is positive that the land he
reports is new. Captain johnson says
he has no reason to doubG the state
ment. Captain Blakeney, the super
intendent of Sable Island, was in
structed TO report on it, and he will
do this as soon as the weather moder-
ates sufficiently TO make IL possible.
The former superintendent of
Sable Island says the newly formed
land may be sand spot on the ex-
IRENE end of the bank. According
to Captain Anderson, the island is
about seventy miles from Whitehead,
the nearest point of land on the main
land. 1t is in the track of ocean ves-
sells.

Cleaning Basin Of Fountain.

Workmen employed by the Annap-
oils Water Company have been en-
gagged the past few days thoroughly
cleansing the basin of Southgate Me-
mortal Fountain, in front of the Fed
eral Building, preparatory to placing
a tile bottom therein.
The City Council, at recent meet
ing, at the request of officials of the
company, turned the fountain over
to the custody of the company. off,
cials agreeing to see that it is prop
erly cared for, and suggesting the
placing of a white tile or cement
basin therein.
This improvement, ii is pointed
out, will serve to demonstrate the
clearness of the city's water supply.

NAVY'S OIL SUPPLY
Should be Protected for Oil Burning
BatlIeships.

Unless this government takes
steps shortly TO protect the Navy
Department, in its sources of supply
for oil, intended for fuel for naval
ships, there will be serious in
reference with the development of
the oil-burning vessel.
During Mr.. Taft's administration
action was taken TO exercise control
over certain sources of oil supply in
Southern California, and this privilege
was sagaciously sought in view Of
the prospect, which has now become
a realization that battleships must
be placed on an exclusively oil-burn-
ing basis.
1t is imaginable that the govern
ment may find itself in the power of
monopoly and dependent entirely
upon sources of supply where the
prices have increased as they are in
ereasing to a point which will make
the cost Of fuel a prodigious item OF
exense. 1t is to avoid this excessive
rate that the suggestion was made
some time ago that the Navy Depart
ment undertake to regulate the oil
supply so far az it would have any
relation to the fuel for battleships,
which are now to burn oil instead of
coal.
The English governme mt, according
to the latest advices, has plan for
not only controlling the sources of oil
supply for its battleships, but of pro-
ducing and refining it, and this would
seem to be necessary TO greater ex-
tent than has ever existed in relation
to coal, if there is to be any uninter-
rupted supply of the material which
is an indispensable factor in naval
onerations.

BELNAP CRIT|C|SES
ROADS EQUIPMENT
Inspector of Safety Appliances
Urges That Carriers Make
Semi-AnnuaI Reports.

Hiram W Belnap- chief inspector Of
safety appliances, today called the at
tention of the Interstate Commerce
Commission to an apparent increase in
the number of defects in the freight
equipment and locomotives of the rail-
roads and strongly recommended that
the commission take action which will
require carriers to report semi-annuaily
the progress made in the equipment of
their rolling stocks.
According to Belnap, of the freight
and passenger cars and locomotives in
spected during the last fiscal year, more
than 81 per cent per 1000 are defective.
Coupling mechanism. aIr-brakes. hand
brakes. hand holds, and safety railings
arc mentioned as the most prolific
cause of defects
In many instances our inspectors
have found that the only test made of
the efficiency of the train brakes is one
ing through the train line says Mr..
Belnap. Under such a system of In
spection the train crew has no means
of knowing the actual condition of the
air brakes Such practices can not be
too severely condamned.'
Thorough inspection. both by the rail-
road employees and the federal inspec-
tors, is earnestly recommended.
Included with Mr. Belnap's statement
the last fiscal year the total number of
casualties on steam roads was $50, l23 of
which l05S5 We're killed and 1895 in
