LIPTON'S YACHT IS BADLY
OUTSAILED.
The Old Shamrock Beats Her BY Five
dent over the outlook.

WEYMOUTH, May lathe Sham
rock / today outsailed Sir Thomas Lip
tons new boat by five minutes and
of about twenty miles. The only pos
sible disadvantage to the challenger
was in the fact that she used her old
mainsail which sits worse since its
salt water bath of Thursday. There
was no discoverable holding back of
the challenger, although once or twice
she pointed such a course as left the
suspicion that the steersman was not
taking advantage of every chance.
The weather conditions all favored a
fair trial, with the wind fresh and
steady, the course clear of all obstruc-
tons and no tides of any consequence.
There is no doubt the result of to-
days trial was distinctly disappointing
to those who had pinned their faith to
the new challenger, especially as he

Wild SMALL POX RUMOR
DIR. COFER SAYS HAS BEEN FEW
CASES.
Statement in Board of Health that
There We're, 1000 in San Francisco
Proves Incorrect.

Last week at a meeting of the board
OF health the statement was made by
one of he members that smallpox eX-
listed to an alarming extent in San
Francisco. There were alleged to be
1000 cases of the disease in that city,
which the board of health and news
papers of San Francisco were suppress
sing from the knowledge of he public
1t was decided to inquire OF Dr. Cofer
the head of the local federal quarantine
office the extent to which the disease
existed in San Francisco.
According TO DR.. Golfer the report OF
there being such a large number of
cases in san Francisco was untrue and
evidently was nothing but a wild ru-
NOR AS matter of fact, there has
been comparatively little smallpox in
san Francisco, From period begin
ming in February and ending April 20
/ there We're but 50 cases. This is taken
from the official bulletins sent out by
the Marine Service under date of May
3rd, which is the latest date of that
publication obtainable
Dr. Golfer does not think that there
need be any great cause for alarm over
the smallpox in San l. francisco but he
still believes that if the disease should
gain an entrance here it will be from
that quarter.

LAUNCHING OF THE OHIO
GIANT OF THE NAVY ALL
READY.
Bigger, More Powerful and Faster
Than the Oregon and Built by Her
Builders at San Francisco.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 1S.-On the
turn of the tide just after noon today
the Ohio will leave the cradle in which
she has been resting and will take her
place among floating things, where she
will fly her flag with the proudest in
the navy.
The time set for the launching is
1926. or just as the highest tide of the
month reaches it's full depth and hest
tates a moment before it runs back
again into the ocean. At that moment
the ship will go, for tide waits not
reven for battleships, and the depth that
will carry the huge hull clear of the
mud is as fleeing as a sunset sky,
though sure as the sun.
1t is almost a certainly that the
President will be there, for Mrs. Nc
Kmley has rallied so satisfactorily that
he will feel free to take the necessary
time unless another unfortunte turn
should hold him at the bedside of his
wife. The launching is what he came
West to see, but if anything should
keep him from it he will at least be at
the works in time to greet the workmen
for he has said that he will make every
effort to meet the men who build the
best ships of the navy
| The reception to the workmen will be
held at II o'clock, and at that time
| they VIII present the gold plate they
have had engraved as a souvenir of the
Presidents visit to the works. IL was
at first Thought to send it TO him in de-
! fault of his presence. but as it is now
/ practically certain that the President
will be at the reception al least tho
plate can be presented as originally
| intended.
All the world has heard of the Ore
gen, which has been aptly called the
bulldog of the United States navy
! No vessel they have ever built do the
Scots take as much pride in. In COM
pairing the Ohio with her some idea of
the formers dimensions will be gained.
Oregon-Length, 34S feet beam, 6S
feet 3 inches; depth of hold, "a feet;
displacement, 10000 tons; speed, 10
knots.
ohio-Length, 3SS feet beam, 70 feet
3 inches; depth of hold, % feet 8
inches; displacement IL, 500 tons;
speed, is knots.
The speed of the Ohio was to have
been l6 knots, but under an agreement
with her builders she is TO make Is
knots or better on her trial trip.

In United States.

SAN FRANCISCO. May 15.-Tne
launching of the steamship Alaskan
built by the Union Iron Works. was
successfully accomplished shortly after
o'clock last evening. Miss Frances L..
Hopkins, pressed the button that lib
Grated the great ship from the ways,
and shattered the bottle of California
champagne christening her Alaskan"
captain James Dickle, superintendent
OF the occasion expressed himself as
satisfied in every way with the manner
in which the Alaskan took her initial
dip into the briny."
There were about 100 persons present
al the launching, and as the huge bulk
at the launching moved majestically
down the cradle great enthusiasm pre-
vailed.
George Scott, speaking for the COM
pany, said THE successful launching
of the Alaskan Is a matter of great
satisfaction to the Union Iron Works.
She is the largest steamship built for
treighting purposes ever launched in
the United States. Her keel was laid
seven months ago, and the work upon
her has progressed without a hitch
for the American Hawaiian Steamship
Company of New York, and is intended
for use as a freight carrier between
New Jrk. San Francisco, and the Ha-
Wafian islands"
The general dimensions of the Alas
kan are as follows Length over all,
46S feet inches breadth, 81 feet; depth
81 feet. The engines are to be twin
screw quadruple and there are to be
three single boilers with Howden sys-
tenn of forced draft.

A. B Cook Honored

The state association OF farmers
clubs which closed Its annual session in
the capitol building at Lansing Thurs
day evening elected A. b. Cook, of this
county, president of the association for
the coming year. There was a pretty
little contest between Mr. Cooks sup
porters ana the friends of Representa-
tive Waterbury, of Oakland, but the
Shiawassee man won out in spite of the
fact that his opponent was one of the
strongest promoters of an oleomar.
garine bill that pleased the most of the
farmers in the last legislature. Mr.
Cooks address to the association the
day before had already been character
Ized as the most important of the day
and his popularity with the associa
tion was unmstakeable Mr.. Cook
had served one term as secretary of
the state association and his uncle,
Mr.. Il. j. Cook, also of this county,
has served as its president. The
choice of Mr.. A, b. Cook at this
time is therefore both great compli
ment to himself and an honor to the
county. IL may be said however in
passing that it is deserved compliment
as Mr.. Cook is both one of the bes,
farmers OF the county and one of the
best known and best liked.
