Gustafson=Jo Johnson.

MT. Nels. Johnson and Miss Aina Gustafson, two popular young people of Douglas Island, were married on Wednesday evening, Oct. 9th, at the M. E. Church, Rev. Holmberg officiating.
 After the ceremony the couple and their friends partook of an excellent wedding supper prepared by Mrs. Pog- nant. They were treated to the custom ary serenade by the small boys, to which the groom responded magnifi- gently.
 The groom is one of the sterling young men of. Douglas Island, who by industry and attention to business has won the esteem of his fellows. The bride is a very popular young lady who has lots of friends and admirers. They will begin housekeeping in the cottage formerly occupied by MT. and Mrs. P. Noren.

New Cart House.

For long time it has been source of trouble to the Douglas Fire Depart ment to properly dry the fire hose after a fire. In pleasant weather the incline on Second street has served admirably, but when it was raining or freezing some other means had to be provided, and this was at all times difficult. Many night, the hose company has spent dragging wet hose from one place to another to get it near a stove. In addition to this, the constant dampness will in time destroy the hose entirely.
 This is all to be remedied.
 Mir. A. Murray, who is president of the organization,got tired of waiting for something to turn up and made prop osition to the department that if the material was furnished he would erect a suitable building for containing the cart and drying the hose, without cost to the department.
 MT. James, the saw mill man, made some rock bottom prices on lumber and lot has been secured near the M. E. Church on Second street. Numer- ous other donations have been made, which will lessen the cost of the build ing and we expect shortly to see first class hose team organized.

Miss Katherine Spiers was a pleasant caller at the News office, yesterday. She is very anxious to open up the city schools again. She and Prof. Holt have worked very hard to overcome the diff faculties that have presented them selves this fall in great numbers. The oyercrowded condition of the rooms and the lack of text books is enough to take the heart out of any teacher. But still Miss Katherine was not discourag- ed, having experienced the same ob- stacles in years past. Having lost so much time it will be impossible to do all that was planned. However, when school again opens, work will be push ed as rapidly as possible.

THE NEW WARSHIP MAINE.
FEATURES OF THE MONSTER SEA
FIGHTER WHICH WILL BE
LAUNCHED on JULY %.

Philadelphia, July 20 (SpeciaD.-Two hundred
Eorkmen placing beneath the hull OF The
tremendous battleship Maine the broad
timber ways on which the vessel will glide into
the Delaware at noon July %. Just at pres
ent however, the big fighter looks ready for
anything but launching, for she is surrounded
by q network Of slzids and stays and perfect
forest of braces, while the hull itself, with
plate left out here and there. looks like
patchwork quilt
But the launching date will find all ready, and
with coat of paint of uniform color and the
removal of all bracing the vessel will stand
out as perhaps the finest example OF naval ar
chitecture yet designed for the new American
navy. Probably Captain Sigsbee, if his health
permits and as many of the crew of the i'll
fated first Maine can be gathered will see
this gigantic successor Of an unlucky craft take
her first dip.
Within few days Senators Hale and Frye
will select some fair daughter Of the Pine Tree
State to the ship, and it is more than
likely that the bottle viii be filled with Ameri-
can wine for this huge craft is purely Ameri-
can institution.
Practically she is to be the pioneer of type
of battleships for the world to follow for her
designs, submitted by Charles II. Cramp, presi-
dent of the company engaged in her construc-
tion. call for an 1S-knot ship. Despite the ire
mendous power to be centralized in her, the hull
clearly shows that the speed element is not TO
be neglected. True. she has the awful ram
power Of the typical battleship, but the run
fore and aft is clean the lines of a racing
yacht, and so cleverly is the carried out
that she looks scarcely two-thirds Of her meas
ured breadth.
She will mount the most powerful battery
ever placed on a battleship in this country, #
not in the world. -Four high power Pinch guns
Will be mounted in pairs in the two turrets fore
and aft, and sixteen of the new navy 6-inch
guns will flank her broadsides This gives a
concentration of four twelves and eight skies on
any object that appears on her beam: and as If
this were not sufficient. she has tremendous
battery OF six. three and one Founders and ma
chine guns.
1t has required nearly two years to build the
hull and another year will elapse ere she Is
ready TO take the sea. She will cost S2,SS5,Oo
and will carry crew OF $40 men. AT a cruising
speed Of ten knots she will have steaming
radius OF about twelve thousand miles on her
normal coal supply.
