Her Lines Are Pleasing
Of unusual design for a passenger
steamer is the liner Wilhelmina.
The new vessel is a product Of the
plant of the Newport News Shiphuild
ing and Drvdock Company and was built
for the Matson Navigation Company
for service to the Hawaiian Islands,
carrying both freight and passengers.
In design she is rather novel, the ma
chinery being located aft in the manner
of the oil tank or lumber carrying
steamer, instead of being amidships of
the vessel This arrangement gives un-
usual space for passenger accommodate
lions amidships and also large free
holds underneath. Whether she is the
pioneer of a fleet of similar liners in
the future. remains to be seen. There
are numerous features in her design
which viii appeal to steamship owners
and her success may lead TO other con
structions along the same line.
$4,000 Miles Without Stop.
The Wilhelmina left Newport News
December for San Francisco burning
oil for fuel and she made the voyage
some 1900 miles. without a stop max
ing the record time Of forty-three days.
The following description of her APP
pears in the current Nautical Gazette:
The steamer is 45I feet in length over
ALL 49, feet length on the waterliue, 81
feet nodded beam and SO feet inches
depth. nodded to upper deck. As will
be observed from the photograph ac-
complaining. she carries three pole
masts. There are two complete steel
decks in the hull and also an orlop deck
in the forward hold. In the hold there
is complete double bottom and deep
tank amidships. arranged to carry fuel
oil or water ballast for boiler fuel. etc
The space between the double bottom
and orlop deck in No. l hold is ar
ranged to carry fuel oil or cargo. Above
the bridge deck amidships. are two
tiers of steel houses containing extern
sive accommodation for passengers and
the captain : quarters and above these
in teak house are located the wheel
house and deck officers quarters.
The hull is Subdivided into compart-
ments by seven watertight bulkheads.
all extending TO the upper deck All
hulkheadS in the accommodation aft are
steel. as are also the machinery castings.
which extend from the main deck to a
full deck height above the bridge deck.
The double bottom is built of cellular
type. with floor plates on each frame, a
continuous vertical keel and two inter
coastal lougitudinals on each side The
vertical keel is SO inches deep through
ont oil tight in all oil carving spaces
and Watertight elsewhere.

ter had it not been for the mishap the
night the steamer was pulling out of
San Francisco bay. That was on Feb
ruary TO- Captain Matson wanted some
photographs taken of the vessel as she
was leaving the harbor on her initial
run to Honolulu and while holding her
off the Lombard street wharf the tide
ran out and the vessel was swung upon
the mudbanks there, where she held
until half past nine o clock that night
before being pulled off by tugs.
The time is good and Captain johnson
says she can do much better, and the
ran smoothly all the way down, and
even in the rough weather encountered
table racks were not used. AS an oil
burner she is fine success. Her smoke
stack, set we'll aft, does not detract
from her appearance at all, the cab
ms being built around il so that she
is not so much Of an oddity as the
Lurline.

TEAM MAKES GRAND FINISH.
Winds Up the Season with Twentieth
Victory.

Skowhegan beat Starks at the An
son fair grounds Thursday by the
overwhelming score of Is to l. and
wound up the baseball season with a
record that Is almost remarkable. Out
OF total of twenty-four games,
Skowhegan won all but four. scoring
one hundred and eighty-eight runs to
their opponents one hundred and
eight The games lost were to Mad
ison two CT and 5-8), Oakland one
(5-8,) and Bingham, one, (3-S). Madi-
son was the one inyincible,
for both Oakland and BingA
ham were beaten in the other two
games of the series. Strong finishing
has been a characteristic OF the team
the season through several games be-
ing won in the last two innings, and
one each with Athens and Solon In
the tenth.
The High school team was the first
victim on the list, losing three
straight (17-8, 1914 and 9-4). Show
hegan also won from the following:
Athens Ga, 4-0; Solon (6-5) Hart
land Q1-D; Waterville Q1-O; Vas
salboro (9-8, 6-5, 7-6); Oakland al,
7-3); Bingham (7-5. 3-2); Good VIII
OILS. 7-5); and All-Star GA. 11-2)
Throughout the season Dore pitch
ed all but four games. and Turcotte
caught all but one. Lewis pitched
against Athens and Solon one game
each, and Lacasce against Good VIII
and the All-Star. Baker caught
Lewis in the game against Athens
and this was the only case of import
ed talent throughout.
Although Madison was the only op-
ponent to escape defeat by Skowhe-
gan, Starks had beaten them 80 the
first day of the Madison fair. Perhaps
Morris had gone stale At any rate
the boys fell on his curves for nine
teen base hits including four two
baggers. and made the game all but q
farce. Meantime Dore allowed but
three hits, struck out thirteen, and
received such good support that only
one Starks runner crossed the plate.
Other features were the good batting
by Hurley, Goulette and Hunter.
