cussion for some years. The completion
OF the first battleship to which the sys-
tenn has been applied and the trials 10
which they have been subjected. have de-
monstrated only the mechanical practi-
cability of the system OF mounting. 1t
has been recognized from the commence
ment of the discussion that there are
grave disadvantages in this system of
mounting. There is nothing in the eX-
perience with the two vessels recently
completed tending either to show how
they may be removed, or to determine
the extent of their effect upon the yes
sells in which this system is employed
The decision in the case of the recent
vessels has been reached in practic Il
ly the same way as the decision relative
to the first vessels to which the system
was applied and is based upon the same
although the navy now possesses the
means of determining practically, at any
rate, a portion of the points at issue.
Admiral Hichborn deals at some length
with the question of Sheathing, and says:
1t IS practical impossib.lity to
prevent such fouling that In a short TINE
after docking the speed is sensibly redu-
ced and after the lapse of a very few
months her speed capabilities cut down %
per cent to nearly so per cent; except
by providing her with a wood sheathe1
and coppered bottom. The process is an
old one. Its practicability and freedom

There are available at the present

c. F. Disuer and T. A Mills estab-
lished a tandem century record yesterday
over the St Paul-Tonka course. The
start was made at the checking station
at the corner OF st. Peter and Seventh
streets at exactly a. m. The first fifty
miles was completed in two hours and
thirty-eight minutes. and the full CEN
fury in six hours thirty eight minutes
and forty seconds. This latter figure,
after passing the investigation of the
Century Road club road record commit
tee and receiving it's approval, will stand
as the state tandem record over the
'TOnk8 century course. An accident, ne
cessitating the removal of the front
wheel Of the tandem, occurred on the
second trip. when near Minnetonka Mills,
and delayed the riders near.y twenty min
utes. Otherwise the ride was made with
out any OF the usual unfortunate delays
which have been the general rule on such
trips heretofore. This is the first tandem
100-mile record ever established in Miti-
nesOta and is remarkab bic from the fact
that neither rider has had much ex-
perience in tandem riding. Hereafter

cOuntered before, this little canine
seemed as fresh as at the start. AS Nc

He las since adopted the dog as his
