KEEL OF The BIGGEST
WARSHIP PUT DOWN.
Work Started on the New York--Will
Be Finished In 1o14

With the young grandson Of the late
Rear Admiral Sampson driving the
first bolt, the keel of the superdread
nought New York. to be the biggest Of
Uncle Sans fighting craft, was laid in
the Brooklyn navy yard. Simple cere-
monies marked the beginning of the
work of constructing the great ship,
which is to bear the name Of the EN-
pire State, heretofore borne by cruis-
er. 1t is expected that the New York
will be completed by the summer Of
1914.
The new peace preserver' is to be
constructed on the same ways on
which the battleships Connecticut and
been built.
The first of the great steel plates was
lifted and placed in position by a crane
When four keel plates had been laid
eight small boys stepped forward and
drove in the first bolts, all of nickel.
The honor of putting in the very first
one fell to W. T. Cfuverfus, Jr., the
five-year-old son of Lieutenant Com
mander Cluverius and a grandson of
the late Admiral Sampson, whose flag
ship in the naval operations of San
tiago in the Spanish war was the
cruiser New York.
The New York will have length Of
573 feet, breadth of 95 feet inches,
a total displacement of $1,000 tons and
engines Of 2S,O00 horsepower. Her
major armament will consist OF ten
fourteen-inch guns. She will be one of
the first vessels of the navy to be arm
ed with fourteen inch rifles.
With a displacement Of 5000 tons
more than that OF the Florida, the New
York when launched will be the big
gest and most powerful fighting ship
ever constructed for the United States
navy. She and her sister ship, the
Texas, will be larger in every way
than the Florida, which, it is expected,
will soon be ready to go into commits
sion at the Brooklyn yard.

WORKING ON 16 INCH GUNS.
Naval Experts Prepare For Coming of
the Forty Thousand Ton Warship.

tnS FOFty nouSanO OF w WdrSnlp.
AS soon as some other nation begins
TO arm its warships with fourteen inch
guns, the caliber of the rifles which
will compose the main battery of the
newest designed Dreadnoughts Of the
American navy, the United States will
seriously consider the sixteen inch gun
for battleships. The largest gun on
foreign vessels today is the 1876 inch,
adopted by Great Britain and Russia.
The problem Of a sixteen inch gun
is already being worked out in connec,
ton with imaginary $4,000 and 10000
ton battleships, so as to be prepared
TO take an advanced step whenever
foreign competition warrants 1t. For
rifles of that caliber a warship must
necessarily have displacement of az
least $1,000 tons to resist the terrific
recoil. These plans demonstrate, it is
said, how materially is the evolution
in naval construction and ordnance in
one country controlled by the progress
of others.
With the size and strength of war
ships growing from year to year in
this worldwide endeavor to excel ma
val experts are beginning to wonder
when and where the climax will be
reached. With the 10000 and 27,OOO
ton ships building the navy depart
ment is planning to make the dis
placement Of the two battleships au.
thorized by the last naval act 2S,500
tons. That is certainly not the end,
for it is believed that the next Dread
noughts will be at least 10000 tons.

CAT CAME BACK.

Made Trip of a Hundred Miles 5e-
tween illinois Cities In Eight Days.
The old adage about the cat coming
back has been exemplified by a four
month-old Maltese kitten owned by
Edward Giffel of Carlyle, Ill. The
kitten Travelled more than a hundred
miles in eight days, reaching its ma
tive home, which establishes a record.
Mr.. and Mrs. Giffel formerly made
their home nine miles north of Bridge
port, more than a hundred miles
east Of Carlyle. A few weeks ago
they removed to Carlyle. Giffel took
the kitten along. The cat was dis
satisfied and finally mysteriously dis
appeared. Giffel received a telegram
in answer to a letter of inquiry from
the kittens old home announcing its
safe arrival there.

NEW CANCER CURE.
Burning the Affected Tissues Is Latest
Hope, Physicians Say.


Members of the American Electro
therapeutic association, at their con-
vention held in Philadelphia, witnessed
an operation which, it is declared, will
make possible a certain cancer cure if
performed in time.
The method was entirely new, and
the operation was witnessed by fifty
or more physicians The theory is to
burn the tissues affected and thus pre-
vent the further spread of the disease
A strong electric current through steel
needles dipped in zinc was employed.
The zinc undergoes chemical change
when the electric current is applied
and emits a chemical that destroys the
parts to which it is applied. This
leaves nothing but burn to be cured.
