hay is concerned, for the piles are
nearer them, but the Germans claim
the record for patrols wiped out or
dispersed.
One of the lines of defense lies In
.Pinsk itself. One street Is one long
trench ready for instant occupancy,
and the houses that line the streets
are barricaded with sand bags and
earthworks. The street, as we'll as the
entire town, is constantly %patrolled.
and It would molly be q matter Of min
utes in case of an attack before the
whole section would swarm with men.
Though the methods of defense to
the south and north Of Pinsk, and
the city itself very considerably, the
machine gun plays an important part
everywhere. Every supporting point
in the long chain. both in the dunes
and IN the swamps, has at least one
Of these deadly weapons. And so close
together are the supporting points
that the whole section may be said
to consist OF a machine gun front.
Artillery plays probably a less i'm:
portant part in the Pinsk section
than anywhere else along any other
front. The Russian guns thus. far

have never been able to reach Ptnsk
and DO my damage All shells dred
thus far have fallen short. The Ger
mans, on the lothershand need their
artillery only for defensive turposess
sfnceF4tis only a waste OF ammunition
to try to destroy Russian positions
across the swamp when no follow.up
attack with infantry is possible. 1t
Is only once n awhile, therefore, that
the roar OF guns is heard. 0ftener 1t
is the nervous ciatter of machine guns
firing at Russian scouting patrol.
The German defense incorporates
one featurs that is as beautiful and
spectacular as It is useful-the fam.
ing rockets and searchiights that are
used on dark nights to illuminate the
swamps in search of approaching foes.
It 3 worth the trip from Berlin
to see the vast. dark areas suddenly
transformed into a blaze Of lights as
rockets mount from all of the block
houses in the rough semi.circle, while
powerful lights sweep every inch OF
ground for miles around.
Pnsk Is squalid to a degree abso-
lutely unknown in America or In any
western European states. With the eX-
ception Of a few buildings along the
Pima waterfront. its structures are all
one story Pm height and OF old, tum-
b1e.down wooden construction. Its bus
mess has from time immortal been
confined practically to the timber
which floats down to It on the Pima,
the Strumen and the Jass1olda rivers.
In the spring and early summer the
water rises and mandates part OF the
town. Just how serious the spring ana.
summer OF 1916 is going to be for the
German troops is a question that is
giving those in command some worry.
Towering above the dfrty,one story
shacks, stands three enormous tmpos.
ing churches-a Russian cathedral, a
Catholic edi1ce and a synagogue.
OF the sixty thousand human beings
found in Pinsk when the Germans
moved in, fifteen thousand were mis-
cradle refugees from farther vest
Poles and Jews who had been driven
from their homss ahead of the retreat
ing Russian armies and then abandon
ed to the care of the Germans when
food became scarce.
This horde presented a problsm that
has only partially been solved by send
ing back westward some thousands OF
refugees, part TO their old homes and
part to abandoned farms which they
can cultivate and utilize for the time
being, and BY doing so help to solve
the food problem in Poland and Rus

A NEW INVENTION.

A coming tower for submarines that can be foated up to the surface when the boat is submerged, and that can be used as a means of escape in case of accident, is the object of patent recently issued to Carl Kaempfer of West Hoboken.
 The coming tower is in the nature of a buoy, the main part of which is normal housed within the hull of the submarine, but having a part project ing sufficiently above the hull to pro- vide a means for an observer sta toned therein to view in all direc- tions over the surface.
 The buoy-like coming tower fits with air-tight valves into the hull, and is held down by a wire cable at it's base. This cable winds about the capstan and can be paid out when it is desired to let the apparatus float to the surface and wound in when it is desired to haul it back Trap doors make it possible to enter or leave the coming tower, and this has telephonic connection with the body of the sub marine.
