Constrootsd of Boiler Iron end Crude ; In Design, She Was Operstsd Against the Federal Ship Housstsnle With Disastrous Rssults. It Is a fact that a submersible boat did actual service lu th war between the states and was perhaps t be Oral practical submarine used In actual warfare Tbo boot was built In Mobil In 1804 by two meu named Hundley and Me Cllntock, It was of boiler Iron, sharp at hotb ends and was about thirty fset long. Ave or all feet lu beam and five or sit feet deep. It was profiled by a screw, the shaft of which ran borl aontally along the bold, almost from stem to stern and was turned by eight men. wbo sat four oo each aide of the shaft'. ' Tbe only hatchway, placed well for ward, was two feet In diameter, and It waa cloned by an Iron cap that worked on a binge and was airtight. In tbe rorward part or tbe cap there was a clear glass bullaeye, through which tbe pilot could see. The boat bad water tight coiu(tartmenta, by filling or empty ing which K could sink or rise. A bal last of Iron rails was pluced outside tbe bull, and by ineaus of keys they could be detached so that the boat could rise Instantly If neccsaary. Besides a rudder, the boot bad side paddles, or fins, which could be used to guide It op or down through tbo wa ter. , . ,. The boat could go perhaps four knot an hour. It could remain submerged for half an hour or an bour without aerlou liu-onveulctu'e to lt crew, uud oix e It remulued as long a two hours nnder water without actual Injury to them. A lloatliit: torpedo was fastened to the bout by n Hue Ki fwt long, ami tbe inventor proiHwvd that the bout should dlv? . heiieuth the keel uf the enemy V vihhi and baul the torpedo after her The trlggera or aetiftltive prltnera or (lie torpedo would preaa agaiuxl the Mhlp'a bottom, explode the torH-iln win!

On the even lug llxed for the exedltlou the crew bad embarked, and the bout wus sub merged until only tbe combings of her hatch were above water. Lieutenant Tayne was standing In tbe bajebway when tbe swell of a passing steamer rolled over tbe boat- and it sank In stantly with her eight men. Lieutenant Payne sprang out of the hatchway as the boat sank, and he atoue was saved. In a few days she was raised, and again Tnyne volunteered and with him eight more men. Tbe embarkation for the second attempt waa made at Fort Sumter, and, as before, all being made ready, Payne, standing at hla post In tbo hatchway, gave orders to cast off, when the boat careened and sank in atnntly. Payne sprang out, two of the men followed him, and the other six went down with the boat and per ished. Agntn the boat was raised, and her owner, Captain Hundley, took her for an experimental trip to Stone river, where, after going through her usual evolutions, she dived into deep water and disappeared. After a week's search she wus found at an angle of forty degrees, her nose driven luto the deep, soft mud of the bottom. . ' Her crew of nine men were stand ing, sitting or lying about In her hold, asphyxiated. Hundley hnd died at his post with a candle In ono band, while with the other bo had been vainly try ing to unclamp the hatch. Tbe angle at which the boat bad gone down bad Jammed the keys so that the men could not cast off the Iron ballast that held tbera down. Again the ill fated vqrsoI was prepar ed for action, and volunteers were called for. Lieutenant Dixon of the Twenty-Orat Alnbnma volunteered and eight men with him, v The ship tlouaatonlc was 'selected for attack ami on a (pilot night the brave crew set out from Charleston. I.lcitteimnl DI.xou guided tbe boat ilratutit to the nouxittoulc, and the ex 1'tvloti tore open the alilp'a aide, so dial Khe'weiit down with all her crew lu two jnlnutea The torpedo 'vt'aael never returned, and whether ahe wetil down with her enemy or drifted out to eu was long unknown. Many years after.

Building War Vesesls. . One of the most difficult problem In building a battleship Is to secure satis factory ventilation. She is a very com plicated creature, made np of so many steel boxes, large and small, for the accommodation of officers, men, coal, ammunition and stores, dotted here and there with so many steel ladders, automatic lifts, steel bulkheads and witer tight doors, varied here and there by miles of electric wires belonging to lights, telephones, bells and motors, to say nothing of the endless mileage of pipes tor flooding, draining, pumping, fresh water, fresh air or compreased air and speaking tubes, First In Importance comes the venti lating of the boiler and engine rooms. When yon begin to think of gangs of coal black demons working away in the bowels of the ship at a tempera ture of 120 degrees; when, too, you commence to realise that unless the furnaces receive their required draft the speed of the battleship drops to be low that of her sisters In tbe squad ron, you appreciate tbe Importance of the steam driven fans to the furnaces and boiler rooms. ?Tlio supply of air comes down through inrge water tight trunks, which are continued right np to the weather deck, armored gratings being provided at the protective deck. For ventilating engine rooms large electric fnna are employed., So, too. the coal bunkers nave to be ventilated. Owing to tbe gas which tbe coal gives off. This gas when mixed with air forms an explosive, so In onler to pre vent the possibility of Injury to men or ship supply aud exhaust pipes are Otted In such a manner as to cause a current of air-Pearson's Weekly Location notices, Courier offics.
