OLD VESSEL NOW A CHURCH
Place of Worship and Home for Sail ors on the Pacific Coast Near
 San Pedro.

It would be difficult to find a great CT oddity in church architecture than the Seamans Bethel, on Rattlesnake island, close to the port of San Pedro, off the coast of California. It is the decayed and weather beaten hulk of an old ship that used to ply the salt seas. Becoming unseaworthy it was beached. made fast with cables and transformed into church.
 The Seaman's Bethel is a mission church that come into San Pedro har bor and of the fishermen of Rattle snake island All the machinery and seagoing fixtures have been removed from the old hulk and the rooms amid. ships that used to open into the en- zine room have been combined into the assembly hall
 The after deck has been boarded in and transformed into reading room Tables and chairs, with many books, magazines and newspapers, give the place homelike appearance, and here the sailors of the Seven Seas. with human derelicts from many lands, congregate in the afternoons and evenings to find out what is going on in the great world.
 Really the Seaman's Bethel is q sort of institutional church. The aft, CT part of the hold has been fitted up as gymnasium. Here also is bowl ing alley and in another corner are bathtubs and water heater. Auoth- CT part of the hold is fitted up with hunks, where the sailor who finds hin'- self broke" between voyages is made welcome to spend the night-or as many nights as he pleases.

Mir. William A. Radford will answer questions and give advice FREE OF COST on all subjects pertaining to the subject of building for the readers of this paper. On account of his wide expe- rience as Editor. Author and Manufac- turer. he is, without doubt, the highest authority all these subjects Address all inquiries 10 William A. Radford, No. la4 Fifth Ave. Chicago. III. and only enclose two-cent stamp for reply.
 Architects are applying themselves aseiduously to the problem of sun plying the demand for moderate cost homes. In all parts of the country more houses of what might be called the middle class are being built than other styles. The designs show orig inality and in every case there is evident the effort to make housekeep- ing easier, in fact, a pleasure. Too often 1t is found that interior con venience is sacrificed to exterior orna- mentation. Many times more effort is given to mere show than to utility and convenience.
 The days of the old parlor are past. The old p3rlor was room shut off from all the other rooms and it was opened only when the minister called, when sister got married, or when the sewing society met. It was room iealously protected against invasion by the youngsters of the household. and if one of the boys ventured across the dead line at the doorway there WAS nothing short of a tragedy.
 But the people have outgrown this Now, if a parlor exists it is lived in just like suy other part of the house. The houses built now, even if they are supplied with parlor, are intended to be lived in all over This is a sign that proves the home, always the bull wark of civilization, is growing still nearer to the hearts of the people. It is the surest indication of the sta bility of uur institutions. Even the summer tourist who travels the coun- try over ip search of pleasure, and wis its all the resorts, when he comes to

REAL SPORT FOR FISHERMEN
of the Port of Vera Cruz Sharks Are Harpooned-Rut Up Good
 Fight.

The shark fishing season is on here now and furnishes quite pastime for those addicted to such dangerous sports. The sharks seem to be bolder than usual, very large ones coming into the bay, while generally they keep out toward the entrance.
 Yesterday quite a large one was caught from one of the piers. It measured over two meters in length and caused quite an exciting battle before the fishermen got the second harpoon into it. This morning an other much larger one was caught by some fishermen in boat. It was only subdued after a hard struggle and finally lowed alongside the sea wall and hoisted out with derrick. The animal was near three meters long and was still alive after being hoistad out onto the dock ard it slashod around at a lively rate, causing the crowd that had gathered to see it to scatter in all directions to avoid it's enormous tail. After being killed the animals liver was removed and 1t measured more than three feet in length. This furnishes a very fine transparent oil that Is used for many purposes.
