MYSTERY “TOWER” SAILS. CROWDS ON THE SHORE ENJOY A "COMIC BIGHT

SHORTHAM, September 18th. If the "Q" ship was the mystery ship of the war, what symbor shall be allotted to the weird contrivance that was towed out of Shoreham Harbour this morning!

The first of the two mystery towers" that have been building for many months on the eastern arm of the harbour might well have been named H.M.S. Cnbelievable if there had been any launching ceremony. Such a vessel never put out to sea before There were fourteen feet of her below the surface, bus, above water were her on bior, until the flag-wagging midgets on her top most platform were 170ft, above the strainin men an, the lowest, as they stamped in heavy unison with the great tow ropes.

TASK FOR SIX TUGS,

to

It took his tugs to tow the tower Portamonth, where it was due oarly this morning. Thousands of people watched the monster from the sea front at Brighton.

These two mystery towers" have been an open secres, for eighteen months. They vers first mentioned publicly in the Day Express in connection with a proposal to use them, and others like them, for the a Channel bridge from

construction of

Dover to Calaia.

The proposal was put forward by Mr. John Neale, an engineer, and the inventor of the system on which the towers wore constructed.

The mily remaining secret is the nature of the military operation in which they ware to have been employed. Most students of warfare, however, have a pretty shrewd idea of the idea anderlying the invention.

The towers" are of great hoight; the could be sunk upright in the middle of the Thames off Woolwich and would still loom sufficiently above high water to carry a railway bridge

They can best be described as a magnified wedding cake-omitting the cupids ! Each octagona) tier forms a deep platform at the foot of the next tier, around which four men at least can march abreast.

post of "Rear-Admiral nt Bombay" has been created on the East Indies Station. The first occupant of the appointment is Rear-Admiral Henry L.

The weather was a first exceedingly bad but was exceedingly good later. There was n rain in the lower levels, but occasional snow showers higher up. Considerable difficulty was experimeed when returning owing to the depth of new snows on the Eastern Bik kim aide. Snows probably fell in bad wen ther is the third week of September. Both were greatly impressed by the peak. The coolies from Darjeeling were found very satisfactory and there was no trouble or accident during the journey
