C. and Moores and Fries- sel of U. of O., the latter of whom was going, he said, to beat Wil liams in the 100, ran the race un der Multnomah colors. Greenhaw led off with a beautiful run finish ing with a lead of about 30 feet, ana ivioores took it up ior tne sec- ond quarter, and lost all that Greenhaw had won but about a yard. Then came Friesell, who was so slaw in comparison with the man he went against that it looked like the race was to go to Washing ton's team. With a yard the start . Friesell ran so badly that he finish ed with the Washington man full 5o feet in the lead. Williams fol lowed Friesell, and in addition to having so poor a start, he was : against one of the best men in the Washington team. Of course the old O. A. C. reliable closed up the gap and naished with a good lead Mrs. T.T. Vincent is in King's Valley for a two weeks' visit with her eon.

Construction of the laigestand most powerful battleship in the world is soon to begio at the Ports month dockvard. It is planned to build the vs el from the laying of the keel plates to the hoisting of the pennant in a period of lb months. Thirty to 36 months is the average time at present devoted to the build ing of battle ships of smaller size Tnis rapidity is calculated to result iu a g-eut eccn my, but, neverthe less, the cost 10 estimated tt nearly $lo,o jo.ooo. Sj heavily will this vessel be armed that she will be equal to any two battleships now afloat, and her striking power at -uob a range as that at which the engagement opened in the battle of he Sea of Japan will be as great as any three battleships of the ordina ry type. The displacement will be about 18,iioo tons. The Dreadnaught as the tattleship will be called, will mount 12 12-inch guns of the Utftt yf.e, throwing three 850-pouni sliells every tvo minutes. Tte vessel will be driven by turbines, and will b able to steam at up wards of 20 kiots an hour. She will carry no si-condary armament. The eliminaticn of the six-inch guns, borne by practically all tne battle ships of the world hitbeito, Is one of the main lessons deduced from the long-range actions which have been fought in the far east. The essential feature of a battle ship in modern conditior s, it is now realized, must be the ability to de liver ttuoning blows at a distance of five or six miles, and this the Dreadnaught, with her dozen great guns, will Da able.to do with terri ble effsct. No battle ehip has hith erto mounted more than four of these weapons. Good for Stomach Trouble end 1 Constipation.
