TO LAUNCH GREAT FiGHTiriG VESSEL . u President and' Distinguished i Guests to See Big Battle- - ship Take ,the Water.
(National News Association) - WASHINGTON, Oct. 25. The United States battleship New York is to be launched afc the Brooklyn navy yard next week, and President Taft, Secretary of the Navy, Meyer, Governor Dix, Mayor Gaynor and many oth'er notables are expected to be on hand to watch the most powerful vessel ija the United States navy take her first plunge into the water. The New York and her sister ship, the Texas, are each 2,000 tons heavier than any other warship that has ever been launched in this country. The New York is 6,176 tons heavier than i the battleship Florida, the last warship constructed at the Brooklyn navy yard and which" Vas the biggest ship of its class afloat at the time of her completion only two years ago. The battleship New York was authorized by congressiin 1910. At first bids were asked for but later these were rejected, and ? it was decided to build the jYesael fit the Government yard afc'Brdoklyn. , ' The keel' was laid on September 11, '1911, and a board hoisted near Che ship grew says:tsU.

The Girl Recovered From Consumption. The makers of Eckman's Alterative, which is doing so much good for Con
sumptives, are continually in receipt j
of wonderful reports of recoveries brought about solely through the use of this medicine. These reports are always at the command of any one
interested, and many of the writers j
In their gratitude have suggested that like sufferers write direct and learn what it did for them. Here is one specimen: 421 Second Ave., Aurora, 111. "Gentlemen: Pardon me for not writing sooner, but I wanted to see if I would stay cured. I can now truthfully say that I am perfectly well. I wish to express my heartfelt thanks. I have no pain, no cough, no night Bweata, no hay fever. Since a child of itwa years, I have been ailing with long trouble, which grew worse as I grw:;older. At the age of fourteen, the doctor said if I could not be sent south I would surely die of Consumption. Every winter I would be sure to have either Bronchitis, Pleur
isy, or Pneumonia. I had Typhoid Pneumonia one time. I had catarrh of the stomach and bowels and had Hay Fever for the last few years; but have not anything of the kind this year. "I will answer all letters sent to me, asking a history of my case, from anyone suffering with lung trouble." (Sworn affidavit) ETTA PLATH. (Fve years later reports still well.) Eckman's Alterative is effective in Bronchitis, Asthman, Hay Fever, Throat and Lung Troubles and in upbuilding the system. Does not contain poisons, opiates or habit-forming drugs. For sale by leading druggists. Ask for booklet telling of recoveries, and write to Eckman's Laboratory, Philadelphia, Pa., for additional evidence. (Advertisement)

fense against torpedo boat attacks, and there will be strong bulkheads as an additional protection against mines and torpedo explosions. The New York and the Texas will be of the same type as the dreadnoughts Oklahoma and Nevada, which have been authorized by congress. The two last-named, however, will be about ten feet longer and 500 tons greater displacement than the New York and the Texas. The launching of a big battleship is an important event in itself, but in the case of the New York the ceremony will be more notable because the Navy Department will have demonstrated
that it is fully equipped and competent enough to construct the largest battleships in its own shipyards without assistance from private concerns. True, the progress in the construction of the New York has not been so
rapid as that on her sister ship Texas, now nearing completion at Newport News, but the fault has not been with the officials or workmen at the Brooklyn navy yard. After the keel of the New York was laid down the work on the ship was stopped for a while by Secretary Meyer until it could be ascertained that the $6,000,000 provided by congress would be sufficient to cover the expense.

of the guns at their main batteries were the New York and Texas designed to be the most formidable battleships ever built. Up to the pres
ent time the 13-inch gun, which has not been used on any of the newer ships, of the navy, has been the limit in calibre of naval guns. The New York and Texas, however, will each carry ten 1-4-inch guns, mounted two to a turret, and so arranged that all of them can be fired in a broadside, or forward, or aft, at the same time. The arrangement of three turrets aft and two forward of the bridge is the work of the Naval Construction Corps of the United States navy. Great Britain has followed this design in her new dreadnoughts, and this is considered one of the highest compliments ever paid American designers and constructors. The New York's engines will be of 28,000 horse-power, 3,000 more than those of the Florida. If the expectations of her designers are fulfilled she will be able to maintain a speed of 21 knots an hour or better. The engines are triple expansion, four cylinder reciprocating engines. The armor of the new battleship will be of sufficient thickness for de-

It Is simply wonderful bow Zemo goes after dandruff. You rub a little of it in with tips of the fingers. It gets right down into the glands, stimulates them, stops the rich, and makes the head feel fine. No, it isn't sticky! Zemo is a fine, clear, vanishing liquid. You don't have to even wash your hands after using Zemo. And what a wonder it is for eczema, rash, pimples and all skin afflictions. A 25-cent trial bottle at Quigley's drug stores is guaranteed to stop any skin irritation. Zemo is prepared by E. W. Rose
Medicine Co., St. Louis, Mo., and is regularly Eold by druggists at $1 a bottle. But to prove what it will do at trifling expense, Zemo is now put up in ?5-cent trial bottles. (Advertisement)
Every Fifth Baby Die. "When the boll weevil Is discovered in the south we turn the covernment scientists loose upon It and authorize them to spend heaps of the taxpayers' money in the hope of defending our national cotton crop against its ravages; yet our national baby crop, which amounts to about 2,500.000 little souls every year, we leave to take care of Itself! And. as the first fruits of this monstrous policy, one baby in every five dies before It is twelve months old. Ladles' Home Journal.
UI1CLE SAM WILL BE REPRESENTED The Aero Club of America Sends Its Contestants to Meet in Germany. (National Sews Association) STUTTGART, Germany. Oct. 25. The Aero Club of America will be represented by the "Uncle Sam" and the "Kansas City II." in the international
baloon contest that starts here tomor
row. Captain H. E. Honeywell, of St. Ixmis, pilot of the "Uncle Sam" and Roy F. Donaldson, his aid, have ex
pressed the opinion that the United
States has as good a chance to carry off the trophy as any of the European nations, and John Watts, pilot of the "Kansas City II." and G. E. Quizenberry, his aid, expressed themselves with equal optimism. These two American baloons are the ones that won the American elimination race, which started from Kansas City on July 29. Unusually large inducements were made for the contestants in this year's race. Besides the trophy, prizes have been offered amounting to $7,500, about double the sum put up last year. Ther6 will be a first prize cZ z,000;
second of 11.700 and five others rang
ing from $1,500 to $250. In addition
the admission fees will be divided among the pilots.
The winner mill receive numerous gifts not yet announced. The baloons were taken from the German frontier to Stuttgart free of freight charges. and insurance against fire and theft while they are in Germany, has also been furnished. Each contestant will be furnished with gas free of charge, and with an interpreter at his entire disposition. The program of banquets, receptions and other festivities in honor of the balloonist is an elaborate one.
