XZMHEN the present war began
n n d nearly a year ago II was
AAB known that there would be
Wv trouble on the sea as well as
on land and one of the subjects of
discussion was the usefulness Of the
torpedo in naval warfare. Much diff
ference Of opinion existed even among
those who had followed the develop
ment of this means Of defense. and up
until the sinking of the Lusitania the
torpedo may be said to have been
almost a disappointment TO those who
had been enthusiastic over its efn-
cheney as an engine of destruction.
Even when the warning went forth
that Germany would sink that beau
tiful Cunarder few believed that II
could be done, but when It did happen
It brought to the notice OF the whole
world what a terrible menace TO sea
going traffic this hidden agency could
be. which without warning and un-
seen could hurl its deadly weapons

vessels, sending. them with their hu-
man freight to watery grave.
The Automobile Torpedo.
The type used during the present
war is known as the automobile tor
pedo-a locomotive mine carried in a
steel body propelled by its own ma
chinery and directed in its course by
means of a gyroscope. The cost of
each one varies from three thousand
to five thousand dollars. They are
usually from fourteen TO twenty-one
feet long and weigh half ton or more.
The body is cigar shaped. made of
steel, and. consists Of four sections
firmly screwed together. The war
head is about one-eighth OF the length
Of the frame and contains the explosive
charge of from two hundred to three
hundred pounds Of gun cotton which
explodes on impact by means of the
appliances fitted into the snout OF the

When a celebrated portrait painter
once pronounced her one OF the three
most beautiful girls in America he
symbolized character rather than per
fection OF feature, for TO the average
person Miss Clark Is merely sweety
girlish with very beautiful eyes. Per-
haps that Is one reason why she has
always lacked feminine enemies. But
her mind Is that OF a trained thinker,
a close student OF political matters and
she has a very ready wit About three
