A NEW OCEAN FLYER.
Ship Which Is Expected to Cross
 In Two Days.
English Inventor Confident That His Vessel, the You're Truly, VIII Accomplish This Feat t-
 Hts PeouIiaritiea.

From Southampton to New York i'll two days is the latest dream of fast ocean transportation. The suggestion sounds idle, but John Richard Hudson the Sheffield inventor, says it can be done, and proposes building a boat to be called Yours Truly to prove his con tention.
 Where such obsolete greyhounds as the Deutschland and the Kaiser Will helm der Crosse have but two propel- lers each, Yours Truly will have 14, seven on each side, with about 60 feet between each set
 Where the old steamers have the shaft horizontal the Hudson's will en- ter the side at long slant forward, inward, and upward at an angle of about 30 degrees. The old-fashioned boats dig a great hole in the water like deep railway cutting, but Yours Truly will be compelled, by it's set of propellers, to rise in the water ten or IS feet, according to the speed, and as a result the inventor claims it skins and shoots forward as fast as he likes, all the great power being converted into speed, and not in wasted churning or driving thousands of tons of water away for miles.
 When Yours Truly wants to stop, the propellers, being reversed, drag it back into deep water. The inventor claims the boat will not roll or cap size. The motive power is to be cleo tricity.

NOgaleS County Seat.

The election has past and among the questions settled is that of the location of the. seat of government for Santa Cruz county, Nogales having won by a very handsome majority. In the con- test the people of Patagonia made | gallant fight, and for some weeks kept their opponents guessing. But it was not in the vote for them to win out and the county seat Is permanently located at Nogalss. This was known by mid night of Tuesday.
 At that hour returns were in from six of the ten precincts in the county, viz: Nogalss, Calabasas, Tubac, Crit tenden (Patagonia), Harshaw, Wash ington Camp and Lochiel. In those six precincts the aggregate vote upon county seat was 2sl, for Nogalss against ls3 for Patagonia, giving Nogales a majority of a4. The other four pre- cincts had total registration of tfty- one, Admitting that they had cast their full registered vote, which was improbable, and admitting, likewise improbable, that their vote was solidly for Patagonia, tho majority would still be forty-three.
