BIGGEST WAR SHIP IN WORLD
JUE WI YAT,

flagship at the battle of Manila, added
to her bulk.
If Congress permits them to be built,
the new ships will present some unusual
features. Possibly they will have 15-inch
guns, s for each hip, which will be
by far the most powerful ordnance afloat
in any way. Some effort will be made to
provide light armor protection far be-
low the water line to guard against the
projectiles of the new cannon torpedo,
and it is even suggested that part OF
the weight carrying capacity OF the
vast hull be given up to deck armor
thick enough to resist bombs dropped
from aeroplanes.

the course Of the saw, which turned
across the back of his neck, inflicting
another severe cut. Medical assistance
was Immediately given and the young

carefully removed from the wound and

ticket "scalping" soon probably will be
a thing of the past in Chicago. Mana
gers Of. nine downtown theaters de-
cided last night to accept the city coun-
ellis proposition to reduce their license
fees from $1,000 to $500 year. on con-
dition they would not take back from
hotel ticket stands any tickets sold to
them. Heretofore, it is said, the Gus
tom of scalpers has been to take the
most desirable seats, and if they failed
to sell them return them just before
the curtain went up. Without permits
sion to return tickets it is thought he
purchase of "scalpers" will be great
