sTRANGEST or SHIP FREAKS
British Inventor Must at Least Be
Credited With the Possession Of
Much Imagination.

Since that memorable day long ago
when our rude f%Orefathers first ven
tured nfloat In their dugOut canoes
many very curious ships have been
built. Perhaps the most extraordinary
Of all these freaks was the steamer
ConnectOr, which was launched In
British waters in 1863.
The C~Onnector was built In three
sections, each of which was, so to
speak, a ship Of itself. The bow or
forward section, which was fitted up In
the usual way, was jointed to the mid
ship section by means Of a huge holt
In such a manner that, as the ship
pitched, 1t could rise or fall quite In
of the other two sections.
Thus, as the ship met the waves a
kind of wriggle ran along the hull.
First the bow section rose, then the
midship section followed suit, and
finally the stern section wriggled up
ward.
The craft passed safely through
some very severe trials. and v e ven
tured out In heavy weather. The idea
was to build up ships in sections like
trains, SO that any particular section
could be dropped at the various ports
Of call.

things be. She jumped up. "Oh, stop
1t" She rushed out of the tent, fol-
lowed by a strange bitter smile that
brought age to the face Of Gerty Har-
din.
In her wi tent. lines found excuse
for her lack Of s%elf-control. She did
not like the color Of scandal; she
hated smudge. Gerry had said the
whole camp knew 1t; knew why the
Mexican woman was In camp! She
did not trust Gerry In anything else;
why should she trust her In that? She
would forget Gerty's gossip.
But she remembered 1t wildly that
week as she washed her own khakis;
as she bent over the ironing board In
Gerty's sweltering "kitchenette." She
thought Of 1t as she returned Rick
ards bow In the mess tent the next
morning; each time they met she
thought Of 1t. And 1t was In her mind
when she met Sonora MaldonadO by

wide curve to avoid having to speak

his face. A dramatic scene. that, he

did not like to have women in camp.

sit down.
II wanted to speak to you about

Richard resigned himself to a long
argument. 1t was three o'clock when
Hardin let him turf in.
When he was getting ready for bed
he remembered the melodramatic
scene Hardin had entered upon. He
stared cOmprehendingly at the screen

din'S coarse sneer-the MaldOnadO,
breathing fast, her hand over her
heart. "Of course he'll think-goOd

her. How they had oil been trying to
