Hardly had the old ruins been cleaned up, shortly after the fire, contract by the owner to rebuild the gargae. Instead of the former frame and tin building a handsome brick and steel building was erected and in record time. The building is of red brick one storey high and with the cellar, which\was believed by a coroner's jury to have been the place where the actual explosion occurred, filled in and no more a death trap." There are cement floors throughout and a built up roof of gravel and tar. There is hardly any prospect of a like dis- aster ever occurring at this place again. Jack Hately who formerly operat- ed the garage will operate it now that it is completed. 4 PARALYSIS CLAIMS ANOTHER VICTIM IN TP.

Plans have been laid for a very active season.

Bi TREASURE HUNT BACKED BY BRAINS To Begin During Summer of 1931--Well Financed and Organized New York.--The world's greatest hunt for sunken treasure is sched- uled to begin during the summer of 1931. Its leader says that it is Pound to be successful. For this will be no ill-organized excursion of adventurers to desert isles, where the more or less mythical treas- ures of the pirate kings are sup- posed to be buried. It will be a commercial proposition, headed by hard-boiled business men, mechan- ically as near perfect as possible, well. financed, and designed, not for a sudden flood of fortune. But to.return a profit on the investment, writes John F. Croggswell in Pop- ular Mechanics Magazine, However, it will not be lacking in adventure and thrills, To Simon Lake--the man who invented the level-keel submarine and made it a workable machine of war, the man who leaves submerged submarines walk in our gardens, floats to the surface along a buoyed line, if he 80 desires, and descends again and enters the craft waiting for him far beneath the surface; the man who has always demonstrated his inven- tions personally, no matter what the seeming risk--to this man the ven- ture spells romance and the culmin- tion of long years of experimenta- tion Is Experienced His belief is well founded on ex- perience, for he is no amateur sub- marine treasure hunter, But the bigger wrecks must wait until he has added to that experience by bringing lesser fortunes to the sur- face. Already he has done just this with twenty cargoes. And many more await him. In fact, the floor of the ocean is literally carpeted with wrecks. The coal alone on the bottom of Long Island sound, in the aggregate makes up a treasure of no mean dj- mensions; it is worth more than $2,000,000. Nearly twenty years ago, the submarine man started evolving the best means of recover- ing coal from the bottom of the ocean. Nothing could be more ro- mantic than the success of his first veuture, Cargo Submarine He constructed a cargo subma- rine without machinery; it was simply a steel shell with flood val- ves and hatches. In his private sub- marne, the "Defender," he went to the bottom beside the hulk of a sunk en coal barge. He donned a diving suit and stepped out of the escape hatch on to the bottom of the sound. Over a telephone, he direct- ed the submerging of the cargo sub- marine, With it in place beside the coal barge, he climbed to the deck of the "Defender," upon which was mounted a six-inch centrifugal puis. The intake tube was buried in the coal and the discharge pipe was placed in the hatch of the car- go boat. In exactly nine minutes, fifteen tons of coal wag pumped from the hulk and deposited in the cargo craft. Then the hatch was clamped down and air pump- ed from the surface into the car- rier, expelling the water, In a few minutes, it bobbed to the surface and the first valuable 'cargo ever re- covered by submarine was towed in triumph to the home dock. Submarine Tube Simon Lake's submarine tube for use in recovering cargoes is rather a simple device. It consists of a long, telescopic tube, of sufficient diameter to allow easy passage of a man's body. One end of the tube is swiveled to the cargo-recovery ves- sel, so that it can be lowered or raised at will. Through it, the wreckers literally walk downstairs to the bottom of the sea. By teles- coping, the tube can be varied in length from (fifty feet to 200 feet and more. On the end designed for submergence. to the bottom there is a large chamber, fitted with water tanks like a submarine by flooding or emptying which the chamber and tube are caused to sink to the bottom or rise to the surface, The operator, descending through the tube enters the operating room of the chamber. Aquascopes allow him to survey the outside surround- ings. In dark waters, he can switch on powerful lights to aid his yision, The room is fitted with apparatus for directing the change of position of the tube and for handling, start- ing and stopping pumps, derricks and grab buckets. tlantic City iis always fin season' There's never a dull Soment at Atlantic City... all.year-roun is Vaationaime!
