A Submarine
By F. A. M1TCHEL
There was a time when warfare, Its
appurtenances, its novelties, indeed,
everything pertaining to It. was public
property. The Japanese changed all
that, making everything secret. Since
the Uusso-Jnpanese fight the war cor
respondent has had a hard time of It,
ami many otllcers are pledged not to
reveal what occurs in the line of their
duty. When 1 was assigned to the
command of a submarine 1 was obliged
to mttke pledges that-prevent my giv
ing certain iwiuts connected with this
story.
Before 1 was ordered to attempt to
bluw up au enemy's ship I was given
time to get used to my submarine.
This did not tnke long, though at first
I confess sinking down under water
made m-j creep a bit. When I had had
a couple of weeks of it 1 was ordered
on several attempts that were all fail
ures. The diiliculty in handling a sub
marine Is that when beneath the sur
face you can't see anything aud when
above it, if you are near an enemy's
ship, yon are llabl? b> get knocked out
by a shot.
1 was ordered one afternoon to go
for a cruiser. The time 1 chose was
between daylight and dark, my object
beinjr to steal upon her J,fi within a
few hundred :yards,.get niy bearings,
duck, lessen the distance between me
and her and fi.i-e my; torpedo. •.
The wMtliec favored the attempt. It
being a nmrky evening, with jast
eniuigh liglit lor me to see a big ship
and hot enough for her to see all of
my boat there was above water—the
periscope. I gave the order to-lower
the horizontal rudder, and we went
down, intending to make a curve I
bad figured out. comiug up uear the
cruiser amidships. Everything looked
well for success, and. having complet
ed the first half of the arc, I gave tho
order for a gradual elevation of the
rudder.
WUHt Was my nnrror iu UUU Uim m.>
boat did not obey ft! I. knew at once
that my attempt would be a failure,
and I knew furthermore that !. my
crew and the submarine were in dan
ger of coin-,' to the bottom and stay
in? there Unfortunately when 1 save
the order to stop tier, to keep.from (jo
ins any lontr. the engineer lost his
head and, turning the wrong handle,
put on power instead -of taking it off.
This gave us so much momentum that
before we could tnke any measures to
right our diwtlop we were scraping
bottom
There .was pot h lug for U but to let
the water out of the tanks in order to
rise straight up to the surface. What
I feared -occurred. We were under so
much pressure that the pump was not
able to overcome it. This indicated
another dancer—if the pumps could
not overcome the outride pressure we
would not !>e able lo lift the.cap of the
IHM'iscoj*.. which in r.i.»e »ve couidu't
get the bo it to tile .surface meant that
we wacJd i: t bo a!>'e to escape through'
tlte conning 1 >wpr
I sprang to the hand pump i didn't
need to give air order to the crew, for
they knew as well as I thai.this was
our only hope, and a very thin hope,
because it was harllly to be expected
that we could do what a mechanical
force could not do Knowing that our
ltr<«5 daueodod UOuli our success, we
worked with tuat superhuman power
that is given to man when some great
object la to be achieved. .
All In rain we worked'till we found
that our efforts were growing lees;
then one after another In quick aucces
aion abandoned the effort
Not a man of us but saw certain
death ahead. We conld not make the
rudder work, and neither of the pumpe
was sufficiently powerful to expel the
water from the tanks. The most fear
ful part of It was that we must die a
lingering death.
Our chief thought was of those we
would tea re behind us, and, thinking
that the boat might eventually be re
covered, some of the men »et about
writing letters to leave tn her, bidding
loved ones pood by and telling them of
our last momenta In the flesh. 1, know
ing that it would be some time before
death would come to um, thought only
of a possible means of escape. The
only hope was that when it became
evident that we had sunk and could
not rise an effort would be made to
save us.' But how could wreckers
work within a few hundred feet of an
enemy's guns?
Suddenly a thought struck me. De
siring to have as much depth room as
possible. 1 had consulted the almanac
and found that the floodtlde corre
sponded with the hour of approaching
darkness We had gone under at high
tide, the difference between flood and
ebb being sixteen feet. In other words,
we had sixteen feet more of water
pressure on us than we would have at
the ebb. I electrified the crew by tell
ing them the situation. Here was a
hope If our engine could empty the
tanks at low tide we would be saved.
That was a long six hours. In four
hours we made a trial, but without
success. In five hours we tried again.
There seemed to be occasional rises of,
say, a foot or two. In another half
hotn-we tried It again and could feel
ourselves rising, but very slowly. How
ever, as she pressure above lessened
we went up tuore rapidly till we reach
ed the surface.
Shall I ever forget that first sight of
the upper world?
Two days later 1 tried again and
blew up the cruiser and 400 men.
HOW SPEECH CHANGES.
English Words Ara Now Vary Differ
ent From What They Used to B».
A striking characteristic of the Eng
lish language ls» the ability its words
possess of passing from one part of
speech into another, in the course of
its history English has been largely
stripped of the endings which once
characterized different parts of speech.
Our Infinitives no longer end In en,
the representative of an early itn. We
do not say tellen. still less tellan. but
simply tell. Our nouns have discarded
the a or e or a In which many of them
terminated originally. Dropa has be
come "drop," ende has become "sod.''
wudu has become "wood."
In consequence of the disappearance
of the terminations, words have been
reduced to their root form Hcncethey
pass with little difficulty from one part
of speech Into another This was not
so once.
Let us take our old. familiar gram
maticfll friend Ion- as an Illustration
In Initio it is fticnre. as a verb: as a
noun it Is amor Oqe lu consequence
cannot lie used for the other. Such j
transition difference of termination i
completely prevents. So in our earliest j
English speech the noun love was lofu, j
the verb was luflnn Here ngnln one j
could not be used for.the other.
But when the substantive ending was j
dropped from lufu snd the verbal end
lng from lutlun the root luf alone re
malned. Thai has given the word love

HER IDEALS CHANGED.
Wie 8aw ■ Vary Large Light After She
Wat Happily Married.
There waa a girl who was quite sure
that when It cainc her turn to marry
she could not live in a bouse any
smaller than her father's. "Love In a
cottage" was not bcr Idea. Cupid, she
thought, needed plenty of room to flap
hla wings and to practice his archery;
he could uot pine in a birdcage. So
she must hare an Immense library
with a fireplace that would take a six
foot log; there must be n drawing room
with parquetry flooring and thick nigs
iliiiLng about on It; the dining room
must be able to hold a large table with
an imposing bowl of flowers. SUe vis
uailzed herself ruling a salon, hostess
to a brilliant coterie of people wlio
would help her social ambition and her
husband's business.
A school friend of hrrs came to see
her a year and n half after she had
married and fouii'l her In a little frame
house on a side street, ridiculously
happy with her husband and her baby
The back yard was Just about big
enough to hold a whirling clothes
frume and a uarrow flower bed against
the fence; the piazza was as snug as a
sailor's hammock; the largest room
was about the size of the vestibule of
the bride's girlhood home.
"1 know what you're thinking,"
laughed the proud little housekeeper to
her guest. "You're wondering how I
conld make tip my mind to live in this
tiny piano box. But I've made a dls
covery. I've fonnd that It isn't the size
of the house that matters; It's the size
of the heart, and the biggest hearts can
live In the littlest bouses."—rhiladel
