" EFFECTIVE TORPEDOES. Th Improvement Most Ndd Now In Naval Warfare. The next great improvement lo na val warfare will be on tue Hues of ways and means of repeating what the Romans did waya uud meana of charging upon and grappling wltb the mighty war vewwla of an enemy to Ink them wltb the abort a word of high explosives. There la no cue thing so much need ed In naval warfare at the present time as a more efficient means of reaching battleships and cruisers with a sufficient quantity of high explosives for their destruction. In other words, there la a more imperative demand for Improvements In torpedoes and tor pedo boats than In any other branch of the naval service. The effective range of the modern high power gun la now about five miles, and it la the range of the guns that determines the distance between the lines of battle of modern fleets, and the fleet wltb guns of the longest range has the opposing fleet at Its mercy. A little while ago the automobile torpedo was thought to be a valuable adjunct to the armament of the mod ern battleship, but the range of the guns has now been so Increased that such torpedoes become a useless In cum bra nee because of the shortness of their range, notwithstanding the fact that their manufacturers have done everything possible to perfect them and to Increaso their sieed and range. Their range Is necessarily lim ited to that attulnable by the charge of compressed air they are capable of carrying. During the past few years the pres sure of the air has been Increased from 1,800 pounds to the square Inch to 2,250 pounds to the square Inch and the weight of air from 00 pounds to 130 In the eighteen Inch tonedo, and still the maximum range of the eighteen Inch torpedo Is only from 8,000 to 8.500 yards, practically about one-third of the rnn? of tbo blgb power guns which determine the distance apart of the lines of battle, and the maximum rate of speed of thle torpedo Is about 85 knots. Hudson Maxim In Metropoli tan Magazine. Newsstand at 8ea For some time past the stewards on the ocean liners have added to their earnings by laying In a stock of period icals and books and retailing them to passengers, but the regular news deni er has only Just arrived. On such Blilpn as the I.uBltunla and her sister nhlp It Is quite a pleasant shock on the second day out to como across the news deal er's stall nt the entrance of the barber shop or some other as natural pluce. Tbo papers, It Is true, do not bear the mornlug'8 date, but the magnslncfl are of the latest Ihhuo and the novels the latoBt from the publishing houses. The stall Is entirely now, and wbother It has come to stay or not depends upon whether It pnys. The rent 1b high, and besides paying for tbo privilege the denier must also "pay bid passage. Popular Mechunlcs, Eel ae Thick ae Cat. The aquarium now has a sea mon ster, a spotted mo ray, whKil Is ti for midable name for a species of eel. It Is eight feet long, as Inrgo lu dlu meter as a fat cat and resembles au enor mous eel, except that Its bead, wltb a mouth like an undershot bulldog. Is crowned with a rnlge of spikes. It came from llermudn. Often the morny haa been taken for a sea sorent by green fishermen, as It lives near the surface nnd often lies with Its bend on the rocks, seeking birds' eggs nnd crabs. Bunerln ten dent Morgan snys this nioray Is not extraordinarily large, as they jfrmv to fifteen feet and often swim wltb heads elevated above the sea. New York World.
