The New RattIeshlp Maine.

The battleship Maine, which was
launched at the Cramp ship yard in
Philadelphia Saturday in the presence
of thousands of people. is nearly twice
as large and powerful as the historical
battleship Maine which was blown up
in Havana harbor February Is, 1888
with a loss of 266 persons. The state
of Maine was represented at the
launching by Gov. Hill and members
of his staff, and Rear Admirals Brad
ford, Melville, Wilcutt, and others rep
resenting the navy department. The
ship was christened by Miss Mary
Preble Anderson of Portland, a de-
scendant of the Preble family which
added fame to our naval history.
The new Maine is a battleship of
1890 tons, 3SS feet long. 70 feet 2
inches broad and drawing 251a feet
of water. She will have engines of
10000 indicated horse power, capable
of driving the ship through the water
at the rate of IS knots an hour by the
aid of her twin propellers; she will
carry 1000 tons of coal, and 551 Off
GERS and men.
The Maine is heavily armored, and
for offense will carry - 6-inch rifles
in turrets, 16 6-inch rapid fire guns,
10 in broadside, the others in bar
bettes fore and aft, S-inch and 8
6-pounder rapid-fire guns, besides 8
smaller rifles; she will have two sub
marine torpedo tubes.
The difference between the Maine
launched IL years ago, a second class
battleship Of 6,6S2 tons, and the Maine
launched Saturday, is typical of the
progress of our navy, always growing,
larger, better armored and better
armed.

BRATrLEeoRo MAN WON.
Eddie Quinn Put "kid" Bean, Feather
weight Champion Of Canada, Out Of
the Game In the Sixth Round.


About IS men of sporting proclivi-
ties gathered in Grange hall Tuesday
evening in attendance upon the ath-
letic carnival of which w. B. Mettey
was the chief promoter, and although
all the events were not given and even
those that were came rather slow, the
crowd was amply repaid for its price
of admission by the go" between Ed
die Quinn of Brattleboro and kid"
Bean, featherweight champion of
Canada. The bout was to have lasted
Is rounds, but the local man proved
himself the superior, and was given
the decision in the sixth round after
some of the hottest kind of sparring.
The evenings program opened with
buck and wing dancing by George
Gonyer, and baton swinging by Eddie
Gonyer, after which came a wrestling
match between w. A. Belden of this
village and Freeman, a colored lad,
who is employed in West BrattlebOro
In the first round of this contest
neither man secured a fall, but Belden
threw his opponent neatly at the be-
ginning of the second and thus won
the decision, the third round ending
in a manner similar to the first.
The local boxers who were to figure
in exhibitions did not show up and
consequently the principal bout was
next in order Both men were warmly
applauded as they took their positions
in their respective corners, but the
Brattleboro man seemed slightly the
favorite. The referee, James Burns
of Bellows Falls, announced before the
first round that Bean, who generally
fights at 1875 pounds, had not had suffi-
cient time to get in condition and
would come into the ring weighing
144 pounds. From the minute the
gong sounded in first round until the
Canadian was unable to respond in the
sixth 1t was evident that Quinn was in
better condition than his opponent
At the end of every round Bean seem
| ed badly used up for want of breath
and he utilized every chance to gain
time when down, while Quinn on the
other hand appeared to be sparrine
well within himself. The blows by the
Brattleboro man on which Bean was
counted out were loudly cheered, and
a crowd of admirers rushed to the
stage to congratulate him when he
was given the decision.
