The newest und perhaps the might

about to begin her trlaU, and this
photograph of her was taken as she
went under Diooklyn bridge on her
uny to tho New York navy yards to be
prepared for her trial trips. The
Nevada carries ten 14-lnch guns, and
no othor battleship In the world is
arranged with throe ot such enormous
guns in ono turret. The Nevada' has
two such turrots, one forward and the
other aft. The three guns to each
turret are 14-Inch and 4 5 -calibre.
Thoso guns will be fired in salvos of
three guns each. There are two other
turrets on the Nevada, one forward
and ono aft, and arranged to the rear
ot the three gun, turrets and rising
above them. These turrets each have
two 14-Inch guns,
Besldos the four turrets with their
ten, 14-inch guns, the new dread
nought fairly bristles with 5-inch
guns, which compose her secondary
battery. There are twenty-one guns
ot tho 5-inch type and they protrude
from every conceivable part of the
monster. Not only is the Nevada pre
pared with guns to make her a worthy
antagonist ot any fighting ship afloat,
but she is also armored to such per
fection that it would take mighty
shells to reach her vitals. The main
armor belt that protects her engines

steel. The two big turrets that house
tlio three 14-Inch guns are protected
by walls of steel 19 Inches la thick
ness. The two other main turrets are
protected with 16-inch armor plate.
Tho hull lines of tfae Nevada are as
clear cut as a cameo.. There is a
greater slieerness to her bow than any
battleship-constructed, and her stern
ulso lias extremely sheer lines. The
upper structure of tho Nevada Is se-
jvero to tne extreme, one nas mu
basket musts and but one runnel set
just aft of tho main mast. Just for
ward of the navigating bridge is a
round steel bouse, for all the world
like a gas tank in its severity ot lines.
This is the fire control room, and it is
built on more roomy lines than has
ever before been attempted.' A score
ot men could move about In the tire
control room without impeding the
efficiency ot each other.
The Nevada is a sister ship to the
Oklahoma, now under construction by
the New York Shipbuilding company,
and like her is an oil burner. 8he la

indicated horsepower ot 24,800. The
government contract calls for a speed
