Submarines and Speed.

The size Of the submarine must bo
limited by its ability to maneuver, and
to maneuver quickly. In quick sub.
mergence lies the only hope OF safety
for the submarine attacked on the
surface. 1t is figured that boat built
to make twenty-five knots on the sur
face would, through its great size, take
nearly ten minutes to submerge. A de-
stroyer travelling at thirty knots
would cover something like six miles
in that length Of time, which simply
means that the commander Of such a
submarine, caught on the surface by
torpedo boat or destroyer any
where within a radius Of six miles,
might just as well surrender his ship,
for ii he did not he could not escape
ramming and sinking.-San FranciscO

Man aid Civilization,

The marvellous progress Of the last
fifty years has lulled US into sense
of self confidence and security as re-
CARDS our racial progress, says DR.. Eu.
gene Lyman Fisk In the Scientific
Monthly. DR.. Fisk believes that 'civ-
ilization" has not improved mankind.
He writes:
II do not think We have any evi.
dence that man as an organism. wheth-
er in regard to his physical or mental
capacities, now presents a higher aver
age type than characterized the ma.
tions OF antiquity. Indeed, SO far as his
physical structure is concerned. there
is much evidence to the contrary, and
think we may be assured that the
great minds Of antiquity would have
made equally good use Of present day
knowledge if they were with us today
aud in a position to utilize it."

TRAIN KILLS HERD OF cows.
Fifteen Head Of Fine Milk Cattle Be.
Ioing to Henry langei Near
Templeton Are Killed

MANNING. Sept Monday night
Henry Langel, east of Manning. lost
fifteen head of milch cows when a
fast train crashed into his herd that
had strayed onto the railroad right
of way.
Every COW in the herd was killed.
One, however, was able to walk but
had to be killed later
The accident happened just north.
east of the intersection of the north
road to Templeton and the railroad.
and it is a wonder that the rain was
not ditched. The cows were all good
ones, and the loss will be greater than
$500. AS the cows were on the rail
road tracks, Mr. Langel probably will
not claim damages from the railroad
company.
The cows were walking single file
along the tracks and the train Knock
