the huge vessel has grown steadily AMI
when she takes theswater she will be
nearly 10 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 prob
ably be the flagship.
Not only in size but in the caliber
OF the guns at their main batteries were
the New York and Texas designed to
be the most formidable battleships ever
built. Up to the present time the IA
fnchg gun. which has not been used on
any Of the newer ships of the navy, has
been the limit in caliber of naval guns
The New York and Texas, however, will
each carry 14-inch guns, mounted two
to turret, and SO arranged that all of
them can be fired in a 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 considered
one Of the highest compliments ever
paid American designers and construc-
tors.
Engines Are Powerful.
The New York's engines will be of
$4,000 horsepower, 5000 more than those
OF the Florida. II the expecta tons of
her designers are fulfilled she will be
able to maintain speed of 81 knots an
hour or better. The engines are triple
expansion, four cylinder reciprocating
engines.
The armor of the new battleship will
be of sufficient thickness for defense
against torpedo boat attacks, and there
will be strong bulkheads as an addi-
tional protection against mines and tor
pedo explosions.
The New York and the Texas will be
Of the same type Of dreadnoughts Okla
homa and Nevada. which have been
authorized by congress. The two last
named. however. will be about 10 feet
longer and Of 500 tons greater displace-
ment than the New York and the Texas.
The launching OF big battleship IL
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 competent
enough to construct the largest battle
ships In Its own shipyards without az.
sistance from private concerns. True.
the progress in the construction of the

HANDSOME
HOTEL FOR BOISE

A five story hotel, containing 100
guest rooms, modern in every. particu-

Tenth and Grove streets, which was
recently purchased from Roscoe Smith
by l.. p. Kieldson for $4,000. Mr..
Kieldson has had preliminary plans
drawn for the new hotel and will start
construction work the first of the year.
The building is to be SOx122, built of
brick with stone facings and will have
a modern cafe in connection.
The old frame building which now
stands on the corner is soon to be
moved away to make room for the mod :

of guest rooms, is to be the largest

in the new building will be equipped
