CRUISERS SPEED
IS GREAT ASSET
American Vessels Also Have
Big Fuel Capacity

Washington, Feb. IS LPl--With
speed equalling the average of the
fast passenger trains, a horsepower
equal to that of the Leviathan. and
4 length as great as the height of
the Washington monument and 245
feet greater than the height of the
Statue of Liberty, the light cruisers
of the American navy now on duty
in Nicaraguan and Chinese waters
are among the principal assets Of the
United States fleet.
One of the cruisers, the Memphis
is typical of her sister ships. The
Memphis was commissioned in 1925,
after being built at a cost of ap-
proximately 11,000,0 900. 1t is $50
feet long, with SIS foot beam and
displacement Of about 5000 tons. Its
100000 horsepower oil burning en-
gines have developed a speed of 80
knots, or nearly 40 statute miles an
hour. The vessel could cruise on her
maximum fuel capacity half way
around the world.
in addition to battery Of . six
inch guns in easements, with a
twin siX-inch gun mounted forward
and another aft, the Memphis car
ries four anti-aircraft guns, six tor
pedo tubes, mine-laying equipment,
two airplanes which may be cata-
pulled into the air at speed of 60
miles an hour, and equipment for

Poor Chinese Widow
Becomes Rich RealtOr

San Francisco, Feb. rs (UP)-
Built by little Chinese widow, who
made a fortune from a few dollars
invested in a country store in
Nevada mining town, Americas first
Chinese apartment hotels, a luXur-
ious tive-story structure. housing
many Of San Franciscos Chinese
millionaire merchants and traders,
has been opened here.
In marked contrast to pagoda-
rooted structures in San Franchises
picturesque Chinatown, the apart
ment is situated on fashionable Mob
hill. away from the Chinese quarter.
There is nothing about the exterior
to distinguish it from surrounding
elegant structures. But the inside
presents a unique blending of ORR
entail beauty and occidental comfort.
Showers, breakfast hooks, icing
svstems-all the modern occidental
equipment is there. But mingled with
this and presenting a new idea in
modern interior ornamentatlon, are
Chinese candelabra. tapestries. por-
celains, sandalwood incense burners,
Iotus leaf color and decoration
schemes, to lend an oriental atmos-
phere.
The hosiery promises a new era
in Chinese living conditions here, for
if it proves a success more will be
built.
Mrs. C. F. Long. proprietress of
the apartment hotel, by dint Of her
thrift and energy, made her fortune
as country store keeper in McDer-
mitt, New, after having been left a
widow with several small children
is years ago.

MANNISH HATS IN
DISCARD AGAIN
Flower Bedecked Creations
Popular With Women

New York, Feb. Is (UP)-Fickie
Dame Fashion forsakes the mannish
trend in millinery for feminine
trimmings of feathers and flowers as
spring approaches. Flowers, which
have been entirely foresaken by the
milliners, are again pronounced the
last word in trimming. Feathers, al
SO, are flying high.
Felt hats worn by fashionists re-
turning from Paris use either largo
single flowers of velvet georgette or
small clusters OF flowers as trim
mlngs Of medium brims and turbans.
where the brim is narrow or me-
dunn the large chrysanthemum, two
toned rose or cluster of violets is
placed at the side back with petals
extending over the brim. Wider
brims even use the -brim flow
er trim. Small turbans have large
petaled flowers at the side front or
clusters of small flowers over the
ears. Black felt shapes trimmed in
white chrysanthemus or violets are
popular. Navy blue felts trimmed in
white are also favored since the
vogue for navy is gaining in popu-
larity daily.
Feather flowers are sponsored this
season although they failed to meet
with much success last spring
Feather flowers are prettiest when in
harmonizing color with the hat.
Somehow feathers carried out in
Hover colorings are not as effective
as feathers carried out in solid cos
tune tones. Shades of greer. violet
and purple are important millinery
trims at present.
Instead of the flower shoulder cor
sage we occasionally see a feather
corsage worn on the shoulder OF the
evening gown. A popular devotee of
the opera wore a huge spray of
cocque feathers on the shoulder of
a white chiffon gown beaded in black
crystals. An emerald green chiffon
gown seen the same evening had q
shoulder corsage of green-dycd os-
trich in shaded tones. Feather flow
ers IN small clusters are worn on the
lapel of the street costume OCCASION
ally,although one must admit that ar
titcial flowers are more effective for
day wear.
The afternoon or evening gown
that is without a corsage seems rath-
er lacking in trimming unless it uses
the popular velvet bow trimming to
replace the floral decoration.
