CLAIMS FASTEST BOAT
Says New Engine Will Rev
olutionize Navigation;
100 Miles Per Hour.

London, Sept. 16. a. m.-The Tribune
prints a statement that the British ad-
miralty is now considering a new form
of marine engine, which the inventor,
f. Mailman, claims will revolutionize
the navigation of the whole world. 1t
resembles the turbine with important
differences. 1t is claimed that it could
drive a torpedo boat 100 miles an hour.
The Cunard line steamer Mauritania
will leave its builders yards at Wall
send on Monday for it's first speed
trials off the Tyne, after which it will
return for it's final fittings and fur
nishings. 1t is 100 feet long, COM
pared with the Lusitanias 7S7 feet 1t
will have accommodation for $50 first
class, 500 second class and !, 400 third
class passengers. Its crew will num-
Der $780, making it's total complement
$3.50. It's gross tonnage is $4,000. It's
maximum draft will be 371a feet.
G. b. Hunter, the shipbuilder, whose
firm built the Mauritania, writes that
the era of steamers larger than that
vessel cannot arrive for some time
Docks must be enlarged, and harbors
deepened, involving long work, before
the next step forward is taken in shiI
construction.

Knltter's Romance.

Romance may certainly figure in
many of the knitted waistcoats and
gorgeous stockings worn by our under
graduates today, but these have not
so romantic an origin as the first of
these articles produced in this coun-
try. says the London Chronicle, For
tradition has It that William Lee. who
in the sixteenth century invented the
knitting frame on which both stock
ings and waistcoats We're produced
mechanically, was driven to this piece
of ingenuity by the cruel foutlng of
the lady he loved. who happened to be
a stocking knitter.
Enraged at his failure to make an
impression on her heart, he sought to
make 1t on her purse by killing her
means of livelihood; and one is glad
to read that all stocking makers COM
bined to Illustrate his cruel purpose.
with the result that he fed with his
invention to France, where he finally
died of a broken heart, whether for
love of his lady or of his spoiled in
yenton. tradition does not say.

BREAKS ALL RECORDS

All records were broken for plung-
ing in gambling games. Sunday morn
ing in Tonapah. Nevada. when Abe
Brown, part owner of the Tonapah
club, the famous gambling resort OF
southern Nevada, lost 100000 in
one setting. While Brown gambled
away 100000 in less than "a
hours. he is actually loser of but
$500. 900, as he is one-third owner
in the game in which he lost his for
tune and one-third of his loss is his
winnings as part proprietor.
The Tonapah gambling club is
owned by Brown. Kennedy and Geo,
Wingfeld. the millionaire mine own
er of Goldfeld. Thursday night
Brown started to play faro in his
house and in a short time lost more
than 5000. He wanted the limit
taken off the game. but the dealers
could not agree to this without the
consent of the other two partners
in the game. Accordingly, George
Wingfield was called up at Goldfeld
and the situation explained to him.
Wingfleld told the manager of the
house to raise the limit to $4,000.
The regulation limit is $50.
Brown started into bet $4,000 on a
single card. Luck was with him at
first and in a short time he was near
ly 100000 ahead of the game. but
fortune suddenly switched to the
other side of the faro layout and
Brown lost heavily. According to the
best reports the battle of dollars wag-
ed for twenty hours and finally
Brown had 100000 in markers
standing against him in the layout
drawer.
Brown was as cool as cucumber
after he had lost his fortune. He rose
from the table went to the bar where
he took drink and bidding his
friends good night, went off to bed.
Kennedy. the part owner, Wingheld
and Brown. in the gambling games,
came over from Goldfeld yesterday
morning to arrange for the settle
ment of Browns debt. While not
known positively. it is generally re-
ported that Brown gave 1000
shares of the famous Mohawk mine
and some other stock to liquidate his
100000 stock of markers. The.
price at which the Mohawk stock was
taken over is said to be s17.
Brown amassed his fortune
through gambling Gamblers here
say that his loss is the greatest ever
known at faro bank It is said that
Joe Letter once lost $4,000 at faro
at one setting and John w Gates
lost S15O.00O at one sitting at faro.
Browns loss doubles that of Gates
and undoubtedly the banner loss OF
them all.

peeially in the region Immediately
tributary to Dawson. The construc

The building OF roads in this imme-
dlate region has reached total of
Just about 800 miles. not including
the White Horse trail. which is in
tended only for winter use and is not
a firstclass carriage road.
Stage lines are maintained on sew
eral of these roads, but they are open
for the free use of vehicles of all
kinds and are in constant use.
They greatly facilitate not only the
regular travel between Dawson and
the creeks and between principal
points on the different streams, but
they assist greatly the movement of
heavy machinery and afford a distinct
economy in the working Of properties.
The roads will not be less appre-
ciated now that a railroad is being

This railroad has now been con
structed as far as Grand Forks and
