MEMORIAL DAY, Saturday is May 30, When the Soldiers Heneath the Sod, Will be Kspeolally Hoaored, Saturday is Memorial Day, the day set apart by the National Government on which to especially honor the de parted heroes of the various wars en- gaged in by the United States. Ob- served with a proper spirit, these ser- vices are of a religious character, and as such they will live so long as the Nation exiata. The rank and file of the veterans of the Civil war, which began almost a half century ago, is being rapidly re duced. When disease makes no claim, time decimates The present genera- tion is dealing kindly with the men who went to the front in defense of the eountry’s existence. Not only is the velerau beneath the sod honored, but the living soldier is given wany advantages under the present form of government, and congress is pouring millions of dollars from the nations treasury to repay as best it can the bravery of its sons, Memorial Day is a National Holiday, and every citizen of this Greatest Na- tion on all the earth should give at Jeast a portion of his or her time to ex- press in a public way the great and good service rendered by the men, who, in the flower of life, were willing to sacrifice their lives that this nation might be preserved.

Method by Which the Submerged Gong Is Operated and the Apparatus by Whioh the Sound Is Picked Up Miles Away-—Port and Starboard Lights. To those who go down to the sea In ships probably no discovery in recent times has been of more importance or tends more to save life than that of the possibility of signaling from ship to ship and from ship to shore by sound, writes Bidney F. Walker in the London Mail. It literally, when fully developed, will enable steamers to “hear” thelr way under all conditions of weather and particularly In fog just as well as they now see thelr way on clear nights by the ald of the lights that each ship carries and those dis tributed rogud the coast of every ciy- {lized country. The apparatus hinges upon the fact that water is a good conduct or of sound The readiest example of this of which the writer is aware Is to be found usually at mineral baths. There 1s nearly always pumping going on in connection with the baths, but under ordinary conditions the pump is heard. WI undressing, for In- stance, td" enter the bath one can very rarely hear the pump, but immediately one Is in the bath if one places one's head under water the pump Is almost painfully evident, and an engineer pr easily count the strokes had he f watch at hand For signaling purposes a bell Is em- ployed. Immersed some distance under the wat and inclosed In a chamber, the hammer worked by com- pressed alr operated from the surface. The sound of the strokes on the bell Is transmitted to a distance of several miles and can be heard by suitable ap. paratus. The hearing apparatus con- sixts of a microphone, a modification of that we use every time we speak to the telephone, Inclosed In a cha inside the ship and connected with the bridge by vires the usual way. The microphone chamber Is filled with a special Hguid which the inventors have found to answer the best, and there are, as at present ar- ranged, chamber and one micro phone Ih bow below the water line.

Nelther of the lights can be seen astern or for some distance toward the bows, the limit being what saflors call two points abaft the beam, a Nitle astern of her middie point, so that when approaching a ship from astern to lights are vigible to the ap- proaching ship, but her full lights are visible from the ship approached. When two ships are approaching each other from opposite directions end on, each ship will see the other's two or three lights and can easily steer to keep out of each other's way. There is a imple rule for this, and Incldental- iy It may be mentioned that the dan- gor Is ‘east In this case, provided that both ships are properly handled. The danger of collision arises principally from shins crossing each other, and for this algo there are simple rules gov. erped iy what is called the rule of the road.
