j Thrr are Ttcd in a Lurj Tank t tTatli

I At the Washington Navy Yard Is a
tank in which models of new battle
j ships are tested. Congress authorized
I it a little over a year ago, after long
! coaxing. Before that nobody kntw
just how new tships would act until
; they had. been built and tried. Then
: of course, it was too late to icu.f-dy
at:y of the rau.ts. This is the Urges:
of its kind in the world.
The great value of such a tank was
recently Eoown in sclcclnis nnxifia
for the five new battleships soon to
be built. These will be the iiiont
powerful warships in the country, and
the navy department wishes tliem to
have the greatest possib ie speed,
with the least engine effort Two
models, one representing a warship
420 feet long and weighing 14, ISO tons,
the other a vessel 435 feet long and
weighing 14,6!M tons, were tested in
the tank. It was found that it
require 21.000 horse power to drive
the first at nineteen knots an hour,
and nly 19,000-horse power to propel
the longer and heavier boat at the
same gpeed. The new battleships will,
of course, be built after the latter
modeL The gain in the length of
cruise each of the new ships can make
is alone worth the cost of the tank.
This experiment and another, with
nine models of a gunboat, proved that
the speed of a vessel depends on its
length and weight, or displacement,
and that changes In shape, beam or
draught make little difference. The
gunboat models tested represented
vessels varying in beam from 24 to 48
feet and In draught from 21 to 10.5
feet, but all of the same length and
tonage. The resistance of the water
to each of these models was practi
cally the same. The tank is nearly
500 feet long and 40 feet wide. The
models are each 20 feet long, made of
white pine, and towed by an over
head carriage which travels length
wise of the tank. Each model is
tested live times at different speeds
and angles. Different Instruments
show the time made, distance covered
ana resistance met each trip.
Making the models Is Interesting
work. Paper cross sections of th hull
of a given ship are made with an In
strument called an eldograph. From
these are made wooden sections to
which are tacked wooden strops. The
wood Is planed off until an exact
model of the ship It obtained. Tola
former-model and a pine block are
then put in the model cutting ma
chine, A roller rolls over the former
model, and a aaw moving with it cuts
an exact duplicate model out of the
block. The new model I measured to
m If it la correct, ha IU outer sur
face finished like a shlp'a hull, is bal
laated to the right weight and I lift
ed Into place In th tank by aa lee
trie eras.
Rev. Dr. Oanigan, vice rector of the
University of vVshlnon, has been
appointed by the pope bishop of Bloux
City. He will probably be consecrated
on May 4 at Springfield, Mass.

property of Queen Victoria, who had
it made Into a brooch, which wag
