MORE OCEAN HTANS
Germany to Produce a New 3d.
OOO-Ton Steamship.
The 45,ooo-Ton Liners of the White
Star Line, Now Being Built, to Be
Eclipsed-How the Struggle
Goes Forward.

Hamburg.-Much is heard today
about the race for naval supremacy.
But the race is no less keen in the
commercial contest and just now most
of the great steamship lines are pre-
pairing fresh giants for the ocean strug-
gle. Here again the rivalry is between
the Germans and the British, both be-
ing eager to hold the blue ribbon of
Atlantic transport, the chief shipping
route in all the world.
When the Lusitania and Mauretanfa
relegated the German Deutschland to
a subordinate place as an ocean flyer
the challenge was renewed, and today
on both sides of the North sea there is
a strenuous endeavor to create new
records in tonnage and speed. The
White Star line is well advanced with
the construction of two new monsters,
the Olympic and the Titanic, the Ham
burg-American line answers with a
still bigger vessel, the Hansa, to the
great delight of the kaiser, and now
the Cunard line gives hints of plans
far beyond anything yet designed
The Boston route must be consid-
cred first, because the latest ship to
take the water is the Franconia, a new
twin-screw vessel of the Cunard fleet,
which will be the largest liner that
has ever entered Boston harbor. 1t is
just 20 years since the first Cunarder,
the Britannia, opened up that route, and
though the Franconia is far below the
Mauretania in speed and tonnage, it
demonstrates well enough the ship
ping advance that has been made in
the span of a single human life.
For the Britannia was 2o7 feet long
its tonnage was L ,154, speed eight and

chinese eusInes Honesty.

With due respect for others, the
Chinaman is perhaps the most honor
able and upright business man in the
world today. His business principles
are founded entirely upon honesty,
and he adheres to his policy with
insistencyof a leech- The chase after
dollars stops II he has to resort to a
low trick to get them OF course, a
little thing like telling a faIsehood
occasionally does not bother him SO
much; but when it comes to plotting
and scheming to defraud some one
the task becomes distasteful The

foresight. he is much their superior

Bauduy Ends Own Life.
Then came the fourth and last chap
ter of the career of Louis c. Bauduy
| when, one week after his young wife
| had tried to kill herself he went to a
| hotel at Mamaroneck, N Y, and, reg
| istering under an assumed name, shot
himself in the head.
| For a time his identity remained a
mystery, as he had tried to erase all
| telltale marks from his clothing, but
Identification was made by sister.
When the news of her husbands
death was taken to Mrs. Bauduy she
tried to kill herself once more by
leaping from window, and was bare
ly restrained from so doing.
And so ended the career of Louis
Bauduy The mystery surrounding it,
the strange series of circumstances
| which made these three beautiful
girls, who had become his wives, at
tempt to end their lives, will never
really be cleared up.
No more will the mystery of the
mans last hours be explained, nor the
precise reasons for his ending it all
by taking his own life. Perhaps when
he went to the little country hotel he
was wondering if it were true that he
was a living prototype of the unfor-
tunate hero of De Maspassant's mys-
terry. He had learned of his wife's at
tempt at death in the meantime. Did
this third tragedy in his married life
| cause him to realize that there was
something about him which haunted
women to suicide? Who knows? I'm

with himself, the rest of the world
can only guess at what takes place in
his mind.
But Louis Bauduy, whatever his rea

passed through his unhappy mind

have been governed by the law of co
incidence, or may simply have worked
out some strange law. He ended 9
