SIX NEW GUNBOATs.
The Innovations Involved In Their
Construction and Armament.

WASHINGTON, p. C., July 2.-Secre-
tary Herbert has called for proposals
for the construction OF the six light
draught composite gunboats which Con-
gress authorized at a cost not exceeding
$4,000 each, exclusive OF armament.
Four OF these vessels are to lie equipped
with considerable eail-power. in addition
to steam, the other two having masis for
military purposes only.
The great innovation involved In these
vessels. as far as the American navy
ia concerned, lies in the fact that while
their frames and general construction will
be of steel, their hulls are 10 be sheathed
with wood and copper. The essenual
reasons for this method OF construction
are that the vessels will be largely indie
pendent Of docking facilities and econo-
mical in the use Of fuel. Docking ex-
penses and the cost OF fuel are ordinarily
two very large items.
The character of the service for which
these gunboats are particularly designed,
requires that they be exposed 10 mus
kerry fire, and the housing of the major
part of the battery by an unbroken deck,
besides adding materially 10 the stiffness
and strength OF the vessels. gives admi-
rable protection to the gun crews wnen
In action.
The necessarily exposed position OF the
bow and stern guns Is justified only by
their arc of fire. and possible usefulness
in "A running action: while for the river
service, for which these boats are par
ticularly fitted, the disposition of the gun
deck battery is all that could be desired.
The vessels with sails have single
screws. the steam propeller boats have
twin screws. and differ In many ways.
The ornaments. being identical In both
types. will consist Of six finch. four six
FOUNDER. and two one-pounder guns, all
rnpid-firinE.

The Magicians' defeat may be ascribed
10 several causes. First of ALL Lloyd's
work In the box: he tad an ofI-day. and
the CLANS took full advantage OF It. He
was banged all over the lot, with a regu-
larity that became monotonous before
the game was half over Tate led his

Sherer dropped ~ ball-something he

BAD JUDGMENT.
Then again-and worst OF all-Cava-
naugh was guilty of an error OF judg-
ment IL was In the ninth inning, and
each one OF the bases was occupied by a
Norfolk player. one man was out, the
score was tie. and Roanoke had had
their last whack al the ball. Cote sent
a grounder To Cavanaugh. and. instead OF
throwing home TO catch Tate. which be
had ample time TO do. "Cavy' threw the
ball to Padden, who was playing Off Sc
cond. OF course, Tate trotted home with
the winning run.
Norfolk was not the only side to hit
the ball. The Magicians also took a
hand in the sport, and banged Mr.. Herr I

this respect with two singles. a double
and a triple, the last one being made

SHOT HIMSELF IN THE HEAD.
Only witness an Ex-Detective, Who
IL Arrested.

WASHINGTON. ID. c., July ia. F..
Wells, white man, q years old, shot
himself In the head with q revolver about
I o'clock this evening. and will very likely
die. The only witness to the deed was
William c. EdlIn, an ex-detective.
Wells was wanted by the local police
for the larceny of a horse and buggy,
and Edln says he followed him TO his
room In order TO arrest him. Wells, when
he found himself confronted by the ex-
detective. pulled out his revolver. Edlin
says. and deliberately shot himself In
order to escape arrest.
Edln has been arrested, and Will be
held to await the result Of Wells's injury.
The wounded man is still unconscious.
The theory on which the exidetective Is
held is that he may have done the shoot
ing. but Edlins account OF the matter is
generally believed, and he Will probably
be released.
