TO GIVE SUMMER COURSES.
Success of Past Season Augurs In
crease in Scope of Work.

The medical school of the George
Washington University probably will
give summer courses in many branches
Of its work next summer. AS an ex-
pertinent the regular college course in
bacteriology was given during the past
summer under the direction of DR..
Oscar B. Hunter member of the facul-
ty. and it's success was so marked that
the scope of the work undoubtedly will
be enlarged next summer.
The medical school summer courses
are the forerunner of a permanent
summer school that probably will be
established at George Washington next
summer There is big demand on the
part of students for such courses. and
the board of trustees now is giving
consideration to the project.

Water on a Hot Stove.

1t is impossible to throw few drops
of water on redhot stove. The wa
ter can never touch the stove at ALL
What is seen is few drops rolling
rapidly over the surface. gradually
getting smaller until they disappear.
If the drops are on perfectly level
place one can see under them to the
other side of the room. thus proving
that they are not in contact with the
stove itself.
What actually happens Is that the
bottom of the drop changes at once to
steam or vapor on coming close to the
hot surface. and this vapor Is supplied
by the drop as 1t gradually goes away.
So the drop rests on cushion of va
por until 1t is entirely dissipated. This
state Of water is known as the spheroi-
dial state and is Of interest simply on
account Of its popularity and seeming
~ paradoxical behavior.

Singing While n Danger.


Though there is no. definite rule laid
down in the British naval regulations.
yet it has become an unwritteni one
for the officers to instruct their men
to sing when they are In great dan
ger. as, for instance. when their ship
has been mined or torpedoed and is
sinking.
A popular song. as a rule. is ordered
to be sung because most Of the sailors
know it. and collective singing puts
more heart in them and helps them
to hang on as long as possible till help
comes.
Some years ago some sailors from
the Vernon were blown up in Ports
mouth harbor. It was In the middle
of January and an icy blizzard made
things worse than usual. The lieuten-
ant in command. who was swimming
In the water. yelled out to his men.
who were also battling for their lives.
"Sing Bill Bailey and probably that
once popular song was never sung un-
der stranger conditions. 1t is said
that the lieutenant swan round and
punched the heads Of those who were
not singing.-Pearson's.

Work Of q submarins

The submarine inventor. Simon Lake.
says in the Century Magazine that this
formidable weapon Of naval warfare
can be means Of charts work its way
on the bottom through the cables Of
mines or under nets or booms until It
reaches the vicinity Of the enemy's an
chorage. Moreover: eff the enemy has
its torpedo nets out. the submarine can
creep up near the vessel. send diver
out and attach a bottom mine under
her. to be electrically exploded after
the submarine has moved safe dis
lance away. If desired. mine can be
attached to the bottom Of the surface
vessel and exploded hours later by
clockwork mechanism. In this manner
mines can be placed under several
ships. and all can be blown up stimuli
taneously at given hour. when the
submarine may be miles away"

cation of both eases is in progress
the result of which will presently
be communicated to the embassy.
The investigation can, il neces-

ternatiOnal call on the interna-
tional commission of inquiry as
provided by article 3 of the
Hague agreement of Oct. Is,
1907.
When sinking the British
steamer Falaba, the commander
of the German submarine had the
intention Of allowing the paSsen-
gers and crew a full opportunity
for a safe escape. Only when
the master did not obey the or
der TO heaye-to, but fled and
summoned help by rocket signals
did the German commander or
der the crew and passengers by
signals and megaphone to leave
the ship within 10 minutes. He
actually allowed them % minutes
time and fired the torpedo only
when suspicious craft We're has
