Observation-Disclosures
FISH and THE HAWK
BY CLARENCE WlLBERFoRcE.

For weeks the beleaguered city had
held out against the artillery of its
enemies. Night and day the cannon
Numbered, but, though the forts were
ruins and the countryside plowed
field, the defenders had repealed every
assault, until those without were in
despair
If the warships within the port could
be destroyed, the city must fall. But
they were hidden from artillery range
by high, protecting bluff. and from
torpedo boats by stout boom which
closed the harbor Within that sane
tuary their mighty guns made sue
cessful assault impossible.
Then 1t was that the enemy sent in
their submarines, to creep beneath the
booms and explode torpedoes against
the vessels sides. But the pass was
narrow, and the searchlights played
all night, so that the moment that the
periscope appeared upon the surface
Of the waves, hundred guns belched
forth destruction, aud the submarines
never came back
The besiegers were In despair. And
1t was then that a new device was
tried
A submarine without a periscope!
Why not? 1t was not necessary to see
ones entrance. One could feel it. The
warships we're damned together in

rine, creeping like blind mole I'm.
der the boom, could not fail to hit
her objective.
The enemy tried it. They sent the
North Pole" beneath the boom at
night, and five minutes after she had
left the line of the blockading ships,
the Queen Dorothy went up into the
air in a mass of twisted iron and
steel
The North Pole having accom-.
plished her task, put out to sea again
for fresh torpedoes This had been
only trial attack. There were eight
submarines, and each of them ought
to account for two battleships. BY
the next morning the defenders fleet
would be scrap-iron, and the town
would be at the mercy of the besieg.

1t was then that the defending gen.
