Danger When Emerains.

There are no submarines built that
can descend to Il depth greater than
$50 feet Consequently there Is very
little resting on the bottom once they
start on cruise far out to sea.
A submarine that wishes to dodge
vessels afioat may sink and remain
beneath the water until 1t figures that
all danger - past Her commander
will know when he has descended
about eighty feet, and he will remain
there. He has delicate Instruments

that convey to him the throb of II

pass to some other portion OF the sea
and there take his chances OF being
discovered when coming up.
When the submarine has poked her
| periscope above water and those on
board have noted the sea IL clear she
can rise. She remains at the cruising
depth while searching for her prey or

Early in the great war the world
was astounded by the London official
news that three British scout cruisers
Aboukir, Hogue and Cressy--had been
sunk by torpedoes. Later, a wave Of
wonder spread over the civilized world
when Berlin announced that all three
sinkings were the work of one subma-
rine, the U-9, says the New York
World.
From that period Of the war right
up to the present time the operations
of undersea fighters have held the in
terest of every follower of the gigantic
events.
Where will they lead? How does
Germany keep it up? Why doesn't
England get after the Germans? These
are questions asked continually. 9th

summaries are for information regard
ing them. What actually happens when

the usual distance between the SUBJ

she ON the surface when making the

| In the first place, no submarine can

Torpedoes rush through the water al
rate of from twenty-eight TO forty
knots an hour. The average speed fig

miles an hour. AS the torpedo speeds

much as lie can, his coming tower ant
