A hydroplane skins the surface OF

The drawing shows the important
features of hydroplane construction.
First, the steps forming the bottom,
according to the theory of the hydro
plane, permit air to enter under the
bottom. reducing displacement and
skin traction. two OF the chief speed
retarders, which naval architects have

Ordinarily these steps would create
suction. which would more than on

two-inch pipes, leading from the In.

shown. supplying additional air to

the natural action Of the water around
the steps.

~ PAUL HALE HEusKE.

. Well, II LOOK the WOEi0 Cuainplohs
and all their advantages Of home lot
and intact condition to do II.
DO what?
why, win series from our beloved
Tigers, OF course.
Yes, the Tiges have at last lost a
series They have been playing since
April IL. A glance at the calendar
convinces US that this Is June 10.
And the Tigers have been all this time
dropping series, though they have
met every team In the American
league, most OF them twice and some
: OF them three times!
Some record. that! Something TO
be proud OF, despite the general dis
appointment experienced here yester-
day when the extras proclaimed the
3 defeat OF the, Tigers In the deciding
game at Philadelphia, by the score
OF to 4.
II the Tigers don't lose another
series before August 10, we shall not
shed a single tear over their standing
An the pennant race, whatever II may
be. No Indeed! So long as the other
teams win shoulder a neyer-winning
handicap, one can rely on the Tigers
to do enough winning In those long
periods In which they don't lose, to es-
tablish themselves in the van, calm,
majestic and naughty.
AS q matter of fact, the Tigers have
been sorely crippled for the past three
weeks. They are worse crippled right
now, the hospital list having been In
creased yesterday by the addition OF
stanage who Is likely TO be out or II
for q week or SO on account OF the
collision which took place between his
meat hand and the ball, coming at an
abiique angle of hostile bat. II Is
very likely that Oscars absence is
likely to cost the Tigers several
games. In fact. II Is easy TO reason
that 1t lost them chance to win the
combat OF yesterday, In the extra
innings into which Oscar might have
prolonged It.

FRUIT PROSPECTS ARE GOOD.
Better Than Last year, Says Secretary
of Horticultural Board.

The secretary of the state board OF
horticulture has issued a statement in
which he declares that the prospects
for a good crop of cherries, grapes
blackberries, raspberries, apples, pears
and peaches are better than they were
last year or in 1909 in spite of the long
continued dry weather In his state
ment the secretary says.
1.-The dry weather is to be regretted
generally, but as a matter OF fact
there are several things connected
with 1t favorable to a good apple crop.
Hot, dry weather is hard on all the
diseases that shorten fruit crops in
Kansas. Unless It becomes very pro-
tracted it does not hurt the tree fruit
much. I have heard of very few ap-
pies dropping off because of the dry
weather IT is also to be noted that
in 1900 and 1901, two very dry years,
