Novel Anchors.

The British steamer Bawnmore now
discharging coal at Mission No 2, has a
novelty aboard in the shape Of a astockless
anchor. In fact, she has two of them, and
they are hauled up 'chock block" to
the hawse holes in way to make a sailor
feel like kicking himself for all the risks
he has run in the way of eating and
fishing anchors in years gone by. The
anchor has no stock and no fukes. II
consists of a heavy semicircular mass OF
metal fastened directly to the chain and
furnished with two attachments very
similar to the old time fukes, but twisted
like the fanges of screw propeller. The
anchor can be let go and grounded inside
of 10 seconds and hoisted in less than half
minute. 1t will take hold of the hard
est bottom, and the anchors, starboard
and port, viii keep ship in position in
the worst weather.-San Francisco Call
