PEARL HARB0R A GIBRALTAR
New Naval Base Being Built by u, S,
Will Be lmpregnabIe When

Washington. - By midsummer or
early fall it is expected that the work
Of constructing the approaches to
Pearl Harbor will be completed and
then the United States will have in
the Pacific national defense as i'm
portant and as impregnable as that of
Great Britain at Gibraltar, says the
Christian Science Monitor. When
completed the work will have cost
about $10,0O0,0O0.
The channel leading into the har.
Dor has already been cut to a depth
81 thirty feet below low tide and will
thus pass some Of the cruisers of the
Pacific station. But the cutting is to
The Caldwell watchman. (Columbia, La.) 1885-1946, 1912-05-24

corSinue until there will be enough
water to float the greatest Of the
dreadnoughts.
Pearl Harbor is to be the most
strongly fortified naval base in the
Pacific, if not in the world. The har-
Dor is landlocked and is distant from
Honolulu twelve miles. When the
channels to the east, the middle and
the west locks have been dredged, the
harbor will be large enough to float
the combined navies of the world.
The work of construction has been
under way more than twelve years
and it was fastened materially after
the Spanish war, and the occupation
by the United States of the Philip
pine Islands.
Hidden forts and disappearing guns
of the latest pattern are to protect the
new harbor. The guns will use smoke
less powder so as to render their dis
covery by an enemy more unlikely
than otherwise would be the case.
The most of the expense in con-
nection with this great undertaking
has been for the cutting of chan
mel through one side of coral reef
so that vessels can get to deep wateS
inside the harbor. The coral is Of the
hardest character and, therefore, the
work has been slow. But the re-
suits will be permanent and there will
be no need of dredging to keep the
channel open. More than 100000
cubic yards of coral reef have been
excavated to open the approaches to
the inner harbor.
The solid character Of the coral reef
will afford fine foundation for the
craving deck. The drydock has been
planned on large scale. Il is 720
feet long, 10 feet wide and fifty-five
feet deep, large enough In every way
for any battleship.
Hawaii has the advantage over the
Philippines as a naval base because It
Is nearer the American coast and con-
sequently American ships can get to
coaling stations in comparatively
short time In the event of war.

Ankle Sprained.

The natives of Sherrard were treat
ed to classy wrestling match last
night when George Nicholson, Rock Is
lands Greek demon, put Yusiff Hus-
sane, the weighty Turk grappler, out
Of commission and thereby won VIC
tory. HuFsane had won the first fall
in 81 minutes with a half nelson and
body hold. Nicholson, learning that
the Turks weight advantage and the
power of his upper body would make
upper body holds useless, worked on
the Turks legs during the second fall.
He secured one of his famous toe
holds, twisted the Turks toes and had
him yelling for mercy after IA minutes
of work. It was one continual scream
which Hussane emitted, but he hated
to give up.
FINALLY WELLS "'NUF."
Gus Papas was the referee of the
contest and he waited for Hussane
to say, "nuf' Finally, after standing
the torture for about a minute, Yusiff
gave the distress signal and Topped
| over. That second fall was enough
for him and he never came back for
the finish. He claimed that his ankle
was sprained, and accordingto Nichol-
son, it is no wonder, for all of the de-
mons power was put into the match.
Nicholson showed his prowess as a
wrestler by throwing the man who out
weighs him some 20 pounds.
