DROWNED IN
THE HARbOR
J. ]. Brister, Colored, is
Knocked from a Light
er of Lumber.

j. j. Brister, colored bayman, was
drowned in the bay yesterday after
noon. Unsuccessful efforts were
made to recover the body Brister
was one of a gang of men employed
in loading lumber from a lighter on
the German steamer Flora Mcneil,
consigned to H. Bars & Co.
The steamer had just arrived in
port, and force of men went out
and commenced work at noon loading
the cargo. The third sling of lum-
Der was being hoisted to the steamer
when it swung partly around strik-
ing Brister, knocking him from the
lighter into the water. He never
rose to the surface. and it is believed
that he was SO badly injured that he
was unable to swim, and that when
he came up it was either under the
lighter or steamer.
The workmen made every effort
to recover the body, and ceased work
for the afternoon to search for the
remains.

ON
RESERVATION
Col. Grants Permission to
Play Sunday Games
At the Fort.

Permission to play on the diamond
at Fort Barrancas on Sunday has
been granted the City League by Col.
Steward, commanding the artillery
district, and next Sunday the games
will be resumed at that place. This
news was received Sunday, when a
request was made that one of the
City League teams go to Barrancas
and play a game with the Twentieth
Company. On account of the short
notice and tAe rain which fell after
wards the game was nor played, but
announcement was made that COM
mencing with next Sunday all games
on the Sabbath will be played at
Fort Barraneas.
When the games were called on at
Fort Barrancas several weeks since
1t was not because of an order having
been issued for them to cease, but
because of the fact that the officers
of the league had received an init
nation that if a game was played 1T
would result in an order stopping the
game.
PLAYED on Naval Reservation.
For the past three weeks the Sun
day games have been played on
diamond near Warrington on the Ia
val reservation, but as the grounds
at Barrancas are much more desir-
able the change will be welcomed by
the players of the various teams OF
the league. The usual Friday after
noon games will be played on the
Palmetto Beach diamond.
No games werA ~Inv-d sunday be
tween the teams on account of the
downpour of rain.

The latest improvement in the con-
struction of the cargo carriers OF the
Great Lakes has been made recently
by G. W. Maytham, a well-known
boatman of Buffalo, n. Y. His plan
consists of adapting the lines of the
hopper car to the construction OF
boats and the great advantage claimed
for this is that it can be unlCad5d
with much more facility and more
rapiuIty than any of the types of boat
at present in use The kind of con-
struction which is at present in FAVOR
consists of making the interior of the
boat of one long compartment into
which the ore or grain is dumped and
subsequently removed by means OF
great scoop like shovels. Below the
floor of the nold are placed the tanks
for water ballast By the new con-
struction the bottom of the tanks are
four feet lower than the older types,
and by means of the sloping bottoms
provision is made between hoppers
for the accommodation of the ballast.
The entire vessel is a series of hop
pers six and three-quarter feet long,
fore and aft, and about AZ feet wide {;
the width of the vessel being about
55 feet. Each hopper is divided from
the next one by a bulkhead rising to
the deck The inventor claims that
in addition to the other advantages
the new vessel will be much safer
He said: Run a vessel into the side
of one of the present carriers and
the hold is laid open and may fill FROM
end to end at once. Puncture the
side of the new vessel and only one
hopper will be laid open. The water
ballast is confined by bulkheads anc
cannot slosh about in rough weather
and the whole vessel will be made
sitter by the system of trussS which
is the basis of the new idea. A com
pany has been formed and patents
have been taken out in all the leading
countries of the world. The building
of such a craft will be commenced
at an early date, and 1t is hoped t.
have her in operation of the begin
| ming of the next season.
