Rear Admiral Fighting Bob Evans
We're found to be in the way. Dis
patches from the metropolis say that
the supervisor of the harbor of New
York called on Admiral Evans and
served Il formal notice on him that
the ships were taking up too much
DON in the river, and were seriously
interfering with navigation. While il
was admitted ON the United States
vessels that they were well out in the
usual channel taken by steamers, they
could not anchor further inshore ON
account of the shallowness of the
water.
There is probably no place in the
world where the great white and buif
ships of the American navy show off
TO better advantage than in the North
River. The dozen warriors strung a
long ut anchor at intervals of about
400 yards stretching from the foot of
Riverside Drive at 72nd Street to
Grants Tomb Mt 125th Street and :

burg had his British armored flyers in
the New York port they were given

York people could not be inhospitablc
to these fleets on account of the inter
national aspects of things, but when
the American ships arrived, waiting
their turn to go to the repair docks,
they were ordered to move away and
give the tug boats and scows engaged
in the Hudson River trade a chance to
pass.
During the short stay of the fleet in
New York the battleship Illinois in
dragging at anchor suddenly ripped
open a Standard oil pipe line laid a
cross the bed of the river. This line
it seems was not charted and no one
in authority seemed to know just how
or when it got there, but nevertheless
the Standard Oil Company had been
pumping thousands of gallons into
New York City through if every day
for years. When the Illinois fouled the
pipe line the officers on board the ship
could not imagine what the anchor
had taken hold of until the surface of
the river became n shining mass.
bright with the hues of petroleum.
Before the pipe line could be repaired

EXCLUSIVE WEDDING SERVICE.
The wedding. which occurred at
London in May. was a very quiet ar
fair. only II invitations being sent
out for the ceremony. The bride made
the loveliest picture, standing. as IL
appeared. in a bed Of lilies and roses
near the chancel. A work OF art, in
deed, was her wedding gown, for it
was made of the most expensive silk
obtainable, adorned with rare old lace.
Among the many wedding presents,
the most notable was the Sancy dia-

mond, given by Mr.. Astor to his
daughter-in-law, which later on is to be
reset and worn on her presentation ut
court. This historic gem belonged to
Charles the Bold, the Duke of Bur
gundy, and fetched 100000 at the sale
of the Demidoff collection in 1860.
1t was secured by MIR. Astor some
years ago from Il millionaire parsee,
Sir c. Jeejeebhay, for $1,000. Mr..
Astor also gave II of the finest tiaras

the many treasures he has added
thereto, including a magnificent suite
of old Chipperne furniture, and some

from Versailles, and once the property

southeast 500 miles to Bassorah, at
the mouth of the Euphrates and near
the Persian coast. He was undecided
whether he would travel by land or

RACED TIE STEAM CARS.

1t was given its first long-distance
trial Oh April l4th, when il left Omaha
as the second section of train No. |,
known rs the Overland Limited.
The motor car gained ON No. | to such
extent that ut Fremont, 16 miles from
Omaha, the motor car was held ON the
block six minutes. Owing to n
heavy wind and meeting trains from
this time ON, No. Is schedule was not
maintained; however, the total time
of the motor ear from Omaha TO
Grand Island, 1886 miles, was :
hours and II minutes, with delays
amounting tC 10 minutes on account
I'll orders, meeting trains, etc. The
actual running time for the 1886
miles was / hours 30 minutes. or 81
miles per hour. There was no delay
whatever on account of the motor car,
and the machinery was in almost con
slant motion from Omaha to Grand
Island. On the return trip April 10
the actual running time was / hours
10 minutes, or 1868 miles per hour.
From Elkhorn TO South Omaha, Il
distance of 24.3 miles was covered in
81 minutes, or II miles per hour.
\ maximum speed of So miles per
hour was attained ON this trip.
Railroad officials Witnessing the
machines trial trip expressed much
qualification. Some of the officials
go even so far as to predict that the
gasolene motor will ultimately revo-
~iutionize interurban railroad trans
portatiOn.
SCHEME OF VENTILATION.
This machine has several new ar
rangements. the most conspicuous of
which is the ventilation of the ears.
The windows are round, similar TO
port holes ON steamships, and are air,
water and dust proof. The cars have
entrance in the middle instead Of at
the end.
The new method OF ventilation fair
~ well avoids the close and sometimes
foul atmospheric conditions so often
encountered in electric and other trans
p|ortation ears, sufficiently so rs to
predict complete success in this di-
rection, The vibration and noise of
the engine were largely eliminated
and mechanism of the car worked
splendidly on Ibis trial run.
The cars will accommodate sixty
passengers each, with comfort. They
have every modern convenience, and

NEV RAIL AUTOMOBILES
Each Machne Runs Independently by

The craze of autoists to build pal

has caused railroad corporations to
dabble in the novelty of motor vehicle

cars that patents have been applied for

Iish Estate a Wedding Present.
A "Gibson Girl is the talk of all
England, for she has married a young
man of that country who is heir to an
estate of than S~400,00O,O0O.
The bride is none other than Mrs.
Waldorf Astor, and n sister-in-law OF
Charles Dana Gibson, the celebrated
American artist.
Mrs. AstOr is one of five sisters, all
natives of Virginia and belonging to
Il family numbered among the F.F.V's.,
standing high in the aristocracy of the
South. She was a Miss Mamie Lang
horne and later the wife of Bobby
Shaw, from whom she was divorced.
All of the Langhorne sisters are re-
nlarkable beauties, paying particular
attention to every detail of face and
figure. A Virginia lady who knew
them in their girlhood days stated that
their rules of living We're something
like this: Breakfast early and exercise
briSkly for an hOur or two. Have a
luncheon and exercise again, this time
riding. Luncheon again and then Il
long. vigorous tramp or a cross country
ride to hounds, just for the pleasure
of it, then Il hearty supper, then Il long
walk in the southern twilight, and then
bed"
SPLENDID WOMAN RIDER.
With a strong horse beneath her, and
the pack in full cry, to see Mamie
Langhorne riding to hounds was a
sight for men and gods. In the day

Nothing daunted this young Virginian
in the way OF ditch or fence, hill or
hollow, and at 16 she was famed as
the most intrepid and brilliant horse
woman In her native State.
