ANCHORS FOR BATTLESHIPS.
Those Recently Made Heavy Enough
\ to Hold Largest Vessels.

"If some of the sea worthless could
rome to earth and get a look at the
anchors which were recently turned
out in the Charlestown navy yard
they would not believe their eye
sight" said H. NJ. Knight, of Boston.
"Battleships nowadays carry four
anchors. These have been cast here
tofore, but they were liable to break
at the wrong time.
They were so big, however, that
It seemed there was no other way TO
make them. Finally it was decided
to try and forge an anchor Of the
size needed at the Charlestown navy
yard. Accordingly five men were set
at work on an anchor which was to
weigh 1860 pounds. The men
worked on the anchor a month and
then turned out one that stood all the
tests and was accepted. Now they
are making those anchors in the yard
in sets of fours for shipment wher-
ever they are needed.
These anchors will hold the larg-
est battleships afoat unless they are
caught in a hurricane. They are i'm
mense affairs. They are fifteen feet
long, from crown TO shackle, and
about nine and a half feet across
from point to point. The palms at
the arm ends, which get the grip on
the bottom, are thirty-two inches
wide. Several sets have been shipped
to the Pacific Coast to go on battle
ships at the stations on that coast. "

The opening Of this century
brought Nevada a rich return OF pros

Southern Pacific Railway crossed the
State with its main line, and other
roads threw spurs into 1t. The

even more plenteously than in the
days when the famous Comstock lode
fed It,
But though Nevadas treasure CAV,

thousands of miners rich, though il
built railways, constructed telegraph
systems and started factories. the re-
gion that was the source OF all these
beneficences hardly gained anything
from them. The output Of the mines

York. IL promoted public utilities

day of June. nineteen hundred and

the creation of the Reclamation Ser

first unit of the great Truckee-Car-

Senate Summary.

WASHINGTON, April 1O.-The bill
to provide for the taking of the next
census passed by the senate today
In the form which, it is understood,
will meet the views of the president re-
garding the appointments for census
work under regulations by the civil
service commission. Efforts by some
senators to allow these appointments
to be made upon recommendation of
senators and representatives without
examination received but slight sup
port.
In a speech Mr.. Bailey said it was
that if the bill as passed did
not provide for appointments under
the civil service the president would
veto it and added that if any such
threat" were made it would stir up
severe criticism Of the president.
