END OF WORLD DID NOT
COME AS PREDICTED

ABERDEEN. o., Sept. 2O.-Having
failed to receive any manifestations
up to noon today that account of this
wicked world was to come up for
final settlement, Miss Nettie Camp
bell of this place has had her faith
in dreams rudely shattered, though
the shattering process did not jar her
nearly so much as would have been
the case had her dreams come true.
On Friday night. January 3, Miss
Campbell dreamed that the world
would be entirely consumed by fire
today. Miss Campbell at that time
did not think much of the dream, but
when she dreamed the same thing
over on the succeeding Saturday, Sun
day and Monday nights. the repetition
caused no little comment and the
passing of the day without dire ca.
tastrophe resulted in feeling Of re
lief in some circles and particularly
among the colored population.

DESMO|NES
LAUNCHED

BOSTON, Mass, Sept. 2O.-There
was launched today from the ways at
the big plant of the Fore River Ship
and Engine company at Quincy, the
largest war vessel built in Massachus-
etts since the early days of the
American navy-the steel cruiser
Des Moines, a sister ship to the Den
yer. The launching was in many
respects the most notable that has
ever taken place in this vicinity: it
was. moreover, one of the most beau
tiful and imposing. There was some
thing curiously inspiring in the scene

headlong down the creased ways. the
iuttering of thousands of handket
chiefs and the cheers from thousands
of throats. the music, the ceremony
The available space about the ways
was packed with enthusiastic human
ity. Work was suspended in the
yard and thousands of brawny work
men mingled with the great crowd.
On the christening stand was a dis
tinguished party from Iowa, includ-
ing Governor A. b. Cummins and his
staff. other state officials and repre-
sentative citizens of Des Moines. The
national capital was represented by
high officials of the navy department.
1t was shortly after IL o'clock when

severed the cord and the big ship
started on its journey down the ways.
1t was an instant after the ship began
to move that Miss Elsie McComber of
Des Moines flung the christening bot
tie against the ships prov. In less
time than it takes to tell it the ship
was riding gracefully on the bosom
of the river. AS she was swung
around and anchored in full view of
the assembled crowds, a mighty cheer
went up from thousands of throats
and simultaneously there was deaf
eing roar from the whistles of tugs
and other craft in the vicinity.
The cruiser Des Moines is similar
in design to the Cleveland, the Ia
coma, the Chattanooga, and the Den
yer. Her total length on the water
line is 292 feet; length over all 30S
