H ow does u submarine attack? How
does It locate the vessel it wishes to
torpedo and how does it proceed about
the business o f sending such vessel to
the bottom? Here Is the way the com­
mander o f Uncle Sam’s submarine flo­
tilla tells it:
“ A submarine w ill come to the sur
face at 5,000 or G.000 yards from the
vessel It is uttackiug—far enough so
the enemy is not supposed to see the
periscope. It stays up long enough to
get the enemy’s course, then goes down
and sets its course to intercept the en
emy’s ship.
“ The vessel must be coming more o:
less toward the submarine, otherwise
the submarine, with its low submerged
spe«‘d. cannot catch it.
“ The officers o f the submarine will
know the revolutions o f tbe approach
ing ship and will use the gyrocompass
with which to work out Its exact posi
tion. They will know just when to
come up to be within range.
“ When the submarine comes up It
will show the periscope us little as pos
slble, take quick aim and lire its first
torpedo. I f It wants to remain then
out o f curiosity to see the effect it enu
But if it does not it goes right down
again.
“ It stays a short time tinder water,
turns the enp bringing new torpedoes
up into tbe tubes and then comes up
for a second shot i f necessary.’’—Fitts

Proverbial Philosophy.
I don’t know, writes u correspond
en t whether the absurdity o f some of
our proverbs when used as a means of
comparison occurs to pe«>ple when they
quote them. For instance, “ As drunk
as a lord.” Any one who looks into a
metropolitan police court when the
night charges are being dealt with will
see that intcmierance is not the ex
elusive privilege o f j>eers o f the realm.
“ As dead as Queen Anne.” Why Queen
Anne? Why not Queen Eliza I>eth t>r
