A Marvelous Time Measurer,

As illustrating the triumphs of mod- ern science in the construction of in- struments of precision The Scientific American instances a chronograph for recording infinitesimal intervals of time, such as a millionth of a second or less, which is stated to have been used to record autographically the compres- sion by a blow of a cylindrical piece of copper. In one case a 83 pound weight fell 15 inches and produced a perma- pent compression of .1658 inch in a copper cylinder, the time consumed in producing this compression being -0030317 of a second. The machine produces by means of photography a curve showing the precise progress of this compression. The, chronograph whi eaches such remarkable results con of a rotating cylinder, witha surface velocity of 100 feet a second, on which is photographed a pencil of light, which is passed through a hole in the end of a rapidly vibrating tuniv.g fork. The delicacy of this instrument is far greater than that of the ordinary tuning fork chronograph recording ona sur- face blackened by smoke.

DEADLY £EA SNAKES

~—_—_ ii -

Not only do various reptiles and other queer creatures abound in the forests and swamps of the Philippines, but the surrounding water of these interesting islands team with veritable sea serpents. These strange creatures, which pass their entire existence in the water, pos- sess deadly fangs, They are a great menace to the fishermen, who are con- stantly exposed to their attacks. Technically speaking, science has named the group the Hydrophide. They differ from the terrestrial snakes ouly in the possession of a flat, paddle- like tail. These reptiles inhabit the tropical seas of the old world and occa- siovally attain a length of 8 feet. Dr. Rudolph Weber, professor of drawing in Princeton university, observed large numbers of these creatures while on a steamer bound for Sumatra. Dr. Weber was in charge of a scientific expedition and naturally took special notice of them. He says that when the vessel was some 50 miles off the coast myriads of sea snakes could be seen swimming about as far as the eye could reach. They kept upon the surface, and several distinct specios were recognized among them.

During calm weatber these reptiles may be seen sunning themselves upon the surface of the sea, remiaining mo- tionless except for a slight undulation caused by the movement of the water. When alarmed, the agile reptiles dive like arrows, leaving a train of bubble¢ behind them. Some especies are extreme- ly brilliant in coloration, being bright yellow, banded with black, while others are tinted with delicate shades of green.

The food of sea snakes cousists entire- ly of fishes. Frequently fishes armed with long sharp spines fall victims to their appetites. Among these are the apogous and siluroids, which are fur- ished with spines three and five inches long. But these do not embarrass the voracious reptile in the least. The vic- tim is first killed by the snake’s poison, after which it is swallowed head first. The spines, naturally pointing toward the tail of the victim, and being relaxed in death, ars compressed against the body ef the fish as deg)utition proceeds. While ja search of their prey, sea snakes sometimes venture a short dis- tance up the mouth of large rivers.

Dr. Weber records an instance where be was fishing in one of the rivers on the east coast of Sumatra. He was using a dragnet and had cornered a number of medium sized fish. As the net was being brought in, two large sea snakes suddenly made their appearance inside. They showed no signs of uneasiness at capture, but were hurriedly gobbling down the cornered fishes. Nor did they cease operations unti] the last fish had disappeared, when the tormidable crea- tures made their escape.

Being air breathers, the sea snakes lead a similar existence to the whale. Scientists have expressed much intere.t as to how long they can remain uudcer water. ftrofessor R. P. Wiffield of the American Museum of Natural Ilistory, while dragging for corals, saw a large sea snake lying motionless amony some coral growths, some eight feet below the surface. It showed no signs of fear and remained in the same position far half an hour. The venom of these rep- tiles is even more deadly than that of the cobra. The fangs are very short, avd consequently donot penetrate so ceop as the fangs of most serpents, but ouly it scratch rom them is necessary to produce gerious results. Owing to their great shyness accidents are very rare. When eornered, they snap upon a victim, Ax the eyes are adapted only dor ude in the water they strike blindly when brought into the air, although li, 8 for Anys whon removed from

their native glemenf,

men’s nets have beeii S##$ te zoological gardens. The London gifdete ever went so far as to builé a special fan! for their accommodation. But théesé captured specimus either die en route cra short time after being placed in captivity. Seeking a dark corner of their tank, they refuse all food and ul- timately starve to death. Around the numerous volcanic islands of the Malay- an archipelago these reptiles are par- ticularly numerous. Frequent eruptions oceur among these islands, which are

. hardly more than the body of the vol-

cano. During the time of an eruption tho few people residing near by take to the water in their boats to escape the rain of ashes and mud. , it is generally a case of jumping from the frying pan into the fire, how- sver, At such times the sea becomes ancomfortably warm from its close proximity to the burning mountain, and the sea snakes swim wildly about for escape. They endeavor to climb over the gunwales of the refugees’ beats, while they twine their bodies in great masses about the forward chains. When about to lay their eggs, these serpents approach the shore. The eggs are laid above high water mark and left to batch by the beat of the sun. Many creatures prey upon the young reptiles. Among their enemies are sharks and other large fishes, while the adults; in spite of their death dealing fangs, fal) victims to sea eagles and large guils. After the great typhoons, which-are common in the Philippines and their vicinity, many of these crea- tures may be found along the beach, where they have been caet up during the storm’ and killed by the violent

pounding’ of the wayvea—New York Times
