known as the "gubmarine sentry." It is a
simple and inexpensive one. It consists of two plece
of ordinary board about three feet long screwed together at sight angles and sharpened at one end, and weighs about fifteen pounds. A catch and bar ste attached to the sharpened end. When this car trivanca is suspended at a Certain angla from a wire hanging from a ship in motion, it plunges toward the boltam and there follows the course of the ship at the depth fixed by the length of the wire let out The length of the wire is, of course, determined by whatever number of fathoms the shipmaster wishes to find in his sailing course. If he la near shore or wants to keep in water of twenty fathoms depth, the "sentry" is lowered to that depth and as long as the desired twenty fathoms are there, the "sentry" gives no sign. But as soon as the depth decreases to under the twenty fathoms, and the bar at the sharpened end of the "sentry" touches the butt an, a spring is released which unbitches the "sentry " from its position on the wire and perniita it to rise to the rung automatically on deck, giving an intimation which cannot fail to be heard that there is danger ahead. It is said that the "rubrating sentry has been tested under almost all conditions of navigation, and has been found to work with uniformly good results. There was at first a fear that it would impede too greatly the speed of the vessel to make its use generally available, but this fear was found to be practically groundless.
