The controllable forpedo which bears his "name has given switnesé to his' abilily, nd his present invention is the result of 'years of study and labor. The single | rail which he 'uses is laid flat on the earth much like a present railroad track. His 'experimental car was six feel long and eighteen inches wide, capable of carrying 140.pounds.. Four. wheels, {wo at each end of the car, all of them, of urse, running tandem, were used. +1 With electric power the car ran smooth: «f ly and easily at varying rates of speed. 1 With the car loaded heavily on one side, tthe tendency was for it to not only keep its balance, but lean slightly in the other "direction. Sharp curvag could be turned and on them the car inclined a little dn- ward, instead of outward as ordinary *.cars would. % These wonders were accomplished by the usé of the gyroscope for steadying purposes. The gyroscope, which every _ 8choolboy knows as a special kind of + 0p, has heretofors been useful in deli- cate. scientific experiments, and it has recently been suggested as an instru- ment which would steady ships during sforms at sea. Mr, Brennan has pro- = i vided two gyroscopes, their wheels or ("discs ih the vertical plane and their i axes of rotation horizontal. For his + model car they were so light they could be 'lifted out and held in one hand. The two areyconnecled so that any angular.
