WHOSE who nave charge CT amateur

L are determined that the United
states shall make better showing IN
the long distance running events at ~
Olympic Games In Berlin in 1916. IN
order to develop the natives IN this style
OF racing. James l.. Sullivan. secretary
OF the \. a. u. has given n silver belt
which will be awarded the best runner
developed before that time.
II was during conversation between
Sullivan and Sparrow Robertson. the
old-time runner. that II was decided to
offer this trophy 10 decide the champion
runner. The two athletic promoters
commented on the dandy fields OF Ions
distance barriers that took part In long
distance runs in the late '7o's. and they
bewalled the lack Of star men In this
country at present.
Foreign countries proved SO muoh SUI

since been trying TO think up some plans
whereby the Y. 5. 4. would be as pro

As vet the method Of scoring whereby
| the premier runner may be selected has
not been determined. but this hucf
is sure: II will be offered In competition
as often as the club that possesses i

of the guns at their main batteries
were the New York and Texas de-
signed to be the most formidable bat
tleships ever built. Up to the pres
ent time the 13-inch gun, which has
not been used on any of the newer
ships. of the navy, has been the limit
in calibre of naval guns. The New
York and Texas, however, will each
carry ten 1-4-inch guns, mounted two
to turret, and so arranged that all Of
them can be fired in broadside, or
forward, or aft, at the same time.
The arrangement of three turrets
aft and two forward of the bridge is
the work of the Naval Construction
Corps of the United States navy. Great
Britain has followed this design in
her new dreadnoughts, and this is con.
sidered one of the highest compliments
ever paid American designers and con.
structors.
The New York's engines will be OF
$4,000 horsepower, 5000 more than
those of the Florida. If the expecta
tons of her designers are fulfilled she
will be able to maintain a speed of q
knots an hour or better. The engines
are triple expansion, four cylinder re
ciprocating engines.

and there will be strong bulkheads as
an additional protection against mines
and torpedo explosions.
The New York and the Texas will
be Of the same type as the dread
noughts Oklahoma and Nevada, which
have been authorized by congress.
The two last-named, however, will be
about ten feet longer and 500 tons
greater displacement than the New
York and the Texas.
The launching of big battleship is
an important event in itself, but in the
case of the New York the ceremony
will be more notable because the Navy
Department will have demonstrated
that it is fully equipped and compe-
tent enough to construct the largest
battleships in it's own shipyards with
out assistance from private concerns.
True, the progress in the construc-
ton of the New York has not been so
rapid as that on her sister ship Texas,
now nearing completion at Newport
News, but the fault has not been with
the officials or workmen a: the Brook
Ign navy yard. After the keel of the
New York was laid down the work on
the ship was stopped for a while by
Secretary Meyer until it could be as
certained that the S6,000,000 provided
by congress would be sufficient to Gov
er the expense.

ship Take the Water.
National News Association)


WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-The Uni
ted States battleship New York is to
be launched at the Brooklyn navy
yard next week, and President Taft,
Secretary of the Navy, Meyer, Cover
nor Dix, Mayor Gaynor and many 9TH
'er notables are expected to be on hand
to watch the most powerful vessel in
the United States navy take her first
plunge into the water.
The New York and her sister ship,
the Texas, are each 1000 tons heavier
than any other warship that has ever
been launched in this country. The
New York is GIG tons heavier than
the battleship Florida, the last war
ship constructed at the Brooklyn navy
yard and which was the biggest ship
of its class afloat at the time Of her
completion only two years ago.
The battleship New York was au-
thorized by congresssin 1910. At first
bids were asked for, but later these
were rejected and it was decided to
build the vessel HI the Government
yard at Brooklyn.
The keel, was laid on September II,
1911, and board hoisted near the ship
grew says: "U. S. S. New York, Bat
tleship No. "a, Length, 573 feet;
breadth 90 fest. 25s inches; displace-

vessel has grown steadily and when
she takes the water she will be nearly
20 per cent completed. Early next fall
she is to be. completed and ready to
take her place as one of the five units
in the first division of the Atlantic
Fleet, Of which she will probably be
the flagship.

LACE is USED ON
BLOUSES AND GOWNS

Lace is lavishly used on blouses and
gowns. sometimes the whole of the for
mer being made of the lace. White Irish,
as always may make a whole blouse;
many of the new models SHOW comblna-
lions of two or three kinds. Much of this
lace is imitation, but it has a dainty ap-
pearance.
Lace stocks and jabots in ecru color
are taking the place of white in many
instances.
When real lace is used on gown 1t Is
often used as a stole, fiat down the BACK
and front, leaving the satin of the gown
revealed under the arms and all down
the sides of the skirt This stole may
be emphasized by border Of black velvet
ribbon.
Gold lace is favored for evening wear
in the form of tunic or fichu, mounted
upon chiffon or some similar soft and
delicate support. There may be ssuch a
striking combination as an orange-col-
ored gown draped with a purple tunfc
and Boosting brilliant corsage band OF

SARTORIAL HINTS.
By Elizabeth Lee.

To change an evening gown into day
dress is an old story, but to convert an
afternoon frock into one suitable for
formal evening wear is something of
novelty.
But it is quite possible now since the
lines of the new models are SO simple.
and an ultra fashionable model / saw
recently gave me an idea how it could
be done, modifying the effest in the
process. of course. to srAt ths7Needs of
ordinary MORALS.
For instance, simple princess dress.
plainly made y black silk or sadn, is
not an unusual part of the wardrobe
of an elderly woman. and this will serve
as the background. The yoke will prob
ably be transparent and small, round or
V shape.
This may be removed or not. If white,
or something rather handsome, it may
remain should a high neck be desired.
If the sleeves are long and close-fit-
ting there is no reason for changing,
because long sleeves are quite as fash
ionable as short ones.
The next step is to add a train in the
back, also a panel in the front. Both
can be detachable The former may
knees. according as the wearer is tall
or short. 1t goes without saying the
latter should choose the longer length
Strips of black lace form the train and
panel which suggests a use for an old
black lace shawl or a couple of long
lace scarfs.
The lace should be laid on thin silk
black or white, as preferred. Surprising
black is chosen, then it will not be nee
essary to line the front panel presuming
the gown is black.
The train starts from the shoulders
perfectly plain and fiat and the panel
from the bust. A bit of jet holds the
panel loosely at the waist line whence
it falls straight.
Broad bands of black velvet start from
the top of the panel and cross the Shout
ders strap fashion, running down the
sides of the train as an outline to the
very edge, looping itself now and again
in its descent.
The train lying upon the floor about
eighteen inches or more Is square across
the end, which measures about fifteen
inches.
A bit of good white lace turning back
over the velvet shoulder straps would be
an agreeable addition.
A slender chain supporting pretty
ornament might adorn a plump neck,
which will probably be also short, while
the more slender woman will find some
thing softer more becoming. / should
suggest crushed strand of white tulle
passed through bars in dog-colar fash
ion. This is the prettiest dressing for
the neck inclined to thinnesS ever de-
vised. 1t has all the merit of the dog
collar without it's general harshness.
When the evening is over the work OF
ripping will be very slight and the deco
rations can be laid away until next time
AS women grow older they do not &c
out in the evenings as much as formerly
and so do not keep formal evening gowns
on hand. To this class the above may
be useful hint.
