mick had no wealth. but as Mrs. Barney
put It, "he looked like a young Greek

not care. She kept right on and got
married.

"She always does do things differently"
They recalled many other interesting
things that Mrs. Barney had done. Her
advocacy of trousers for women OF fash.

ligion OF BAHIA or Babism, as 1t is more
generally called; the residence she built
on fashionable Sheridan Circle, Washing

Roman house: the sarcophagus on the
lawn that once held the mummy Of An
Egyptian princess, and so many other In.

SHIP BUILDING In
AMERICA ON DECLINE
America Drops to Second Place in
Building Program for This Year.

American shipyards today are furth-
err behind the British yards in the to-
tai amount of tonnage under co1struc-
ton than they were before the war,
says a statement issued by Ll0yds
Register of Shipping. This does not
mean that American shipbuilding is
returning to pre-war. times, but It
indicates how sharp the decline has
been from the maximum production
figure attained by the country during
the war.
Even on the present reduced scale of
output, however, the tonnage building
in American yards represents an in
crease of 1907 percent over the total
being constructed just prior to the
war, while the British gain in the same
period has been only 1i6 percent.
The great advance of American ship
building over the pre-war status of the
industry, the subsequent sharp decline
and the source Of British 5hipbuilding
may be shown by the following figures
giving in gross tons the totals under
construction for the two countries at
the date named. The peak Of The
American output was reached IN the
quarter ending March 81, 1919.
Compared with the pre-war figures,
American shipyards are now building
1924, 900 gross tons more and British
yards 100000 tons At the maximum
of the American effort, however, the
gain over the 1914 figure was in ex-
cess Of 100000 tons, so that the
present figure marks decline of near
~ two and half million tons.
Returns made by Lloyd's Register for
the quarter ended September 30. how
ever. indicate that in some respects
American shipyards still lead the
world The chief demand at present
is for tanker tonnage and in this type
of construction the United States is
building more than double Great Brit
tain and all the rest Of the world put
