The British Dreadnought battleship Colossus has been launched at Greenock, nine months after her keel was laid. She is the largest bat tlcshlp yet launched In this country and la unique In her appearance. She has two sister ships the Her cules building on the Tyne. which Is to be launched soon, and the Orion, which will be launched nt Portsmouth In July or August. The fourth ship Is the armored cruiser TJ mi. which will aliio be launched In August at Devenport. She Is the first British Dreadnought to he built upon the American prin ciple. In the others the five turrets, with two guns in each, are placed In the form of a cross, the one being at each extremity, and one between the Intersection of the arms at the foot. It Is, therefore, only possible to fire four of the turrets eight guns on either broadside. The American ships, on the other hand, all have their big gun turrets mounted on the center line of the ship, and by placing two turrets one forward and one aft at a higher level than the others, a fore and aft fire of four guns Is secured, while the full armament can be brought to bear on either broadside.. That Is the syBtem adopted by the British Admiralty In the case, of Ihe Colossus and her sisters. It Is said that Rockemorganheim is sad; he sees no way to corral and capitalize the comet for his enrichment. SOM'TION IXUND FOR HAT PROBLEM I'arls. From the fashionable resort of Aex-Ios-Bains seems to have come a final solution of the perplexed the atre hat question. It Is very simple. The ladles are separated Into two classes those who wear hats and those who do not. Hatless ladles go to the right; hat-wearing ladles -to ihe left. There the latter enjoy trying to see tin." stage over the mountainous peaks of flowers and feathers of birds of their own kind. This really seems to he a brilliant Idea and It Is whis pered that no less a personage than PiVrpont Morgan who frequents Alx Is responsible for It Ranch House Burned.' Word was received here this after noon that a house belonging to Dr. Cllso, the optician, and situated near Vansycle, was destroyed by fire this morning, together with all the furni ture.

On 8iling Vessel. Instead of the usual routine work on a steamer paint washing and so forth the work on a sailing ship varies widely. It may be making or shorten ing sail, bending or unbending due or heavy weather canvas, squaring in or bracing tip the yards, tucking or wear ing ulilp. and. no (mi iter what the la bor, one always had the satisfaction of seeing the result. The speed ami sail ing Molalities of a vessel were things that could be discussed with interest as well as the length of passage. In bud weather, when excitement ran high aud cursing was considered quite in order, struggling up aloft with wet or frozen canvas one hand for the ship and the other for yourself ou a dark, dirty night put a man on bis met tle, and should the foresail be handled or the main topsail settled and the cry of "Splice the main brace!" be heard well, one felt at peace with the world. In the tropics catching sharks, har pooning dolphins and porpoises, sing ing, dancing, telling yarns and read lug over old love letters are diversions not easily forgotten by those who hare experienced them. Being becalmed in the tropics on a beautiful moonlight night brought home to one the beau ties and wonders of nature aud the ex istence of a God with whom one felt in closer touch on such nights as those.

As au Instance of the "marrying In haste" principle that obtains in some American cities an Knulisli lady who visited Chicago relates how her maid, who accompanied her. quickly became imbued with the desire to become Mrs. Somebody.

SPOKANE WOMEN MAY GET MARBLE CHAPTER HOUSE The following story from the Wo man's National Daily will, be of in terest to the local members of the American Woman's league: Spokane, Wash. Spokane Chapter of the American Woman's league will have the most unique quarters In the world. If the plans now, under way meet with the approval of the execu tive officers of the national assocla tlon. A. H. Jarman, president of the Washington Marble company. has sent a letter to Mrs. John P. Davles. treasurer of the local organization, of fering to furnish, free of charge, to the chapter sufficient Grecian Swyros marble, which has a commercial val ue of $30 a cubic foot, In saw blocks at the quarries for exterior and in terior construction. Mr. Jarman, who came recently from San Jose, Cal., and W. H. Bol leau. recording teller of the Traders' National bank of Spokane discovered the rare marble ledges 10 days ago while on an exploration tour in Ste vens county, 15 miles northeast of Colvllle, Wash., 20 varieties, ranging from deep purple to pure white, being brought tothe surface. The Iden tity of the. specimens was established by marble experts In Spokane wliere several specimens were cut and pol ished. "We want the Spokane chapter to have the distinction of owning - the finest home on the continent, as the work the national organization Is do 'ng through the local bodies Is of val ue and Importance. "Our quarries have never produced, but we expect to begin active opera tions within the next Tew months. The first 20 or 30 feet in all quarries, known as surface marble. Is unfit for exterior use. As our company will take prid" In the erection of the Spo kane chapter house, it requires sev eral months to open the particular vein of the marble selected to fur nish strictly first-class material.
