Bi:rtlKI-: a listinsuisho.l ;athorin of representative citizens of tli' Slate le:iriii ifs name, the battloshiji Iowa, the host tighter in this or any other navy, was launched at Cramps' shipyard in Philadelphia Saturday. A fair daughter of the llaw keye State, Miss Mary Lord Drake, christened the vessel, while the rest f the honors were Imriie hy her f .it her. Jov. V. M. Drake. Miss Drako is a typical Iowa irl and a youn lady of ra. e and dignity. Since the dec(iOV. F. m. ti:akk. tion of her father to the otlice of (hvernor sho has oct-upicl the position of 'first lady of the State" in a manner that has gained for her the esteem of all who ha vi- ini't her. Nearly H'0 persons attended from Washington. The party included Vice LAUNCH OF THE President and Mrs. Stevenson. Secretary and Miss Herbert and Mrs. Micou, Secretary and Miss Morton. Attorney (Jeneral and Mrs. Harmon, the naval committees from both houses of Congress, the Iowa and Alabama Congressional delegations, Maj. (Jen. Miles and staff, the chiefs of the naval bureaus and other army and naval officers. Most of the excursionists were accompanied by the ladies of their families. The Iowa is intended solely for lighting purposes and is the fourth battleship built for the new I'nited States navy. It has been constructed with the idea of sea purposes and is to be far superior to the brag ships of the Knglish and French navies. It is not easy to comprehend the potential power of this mighty lighting machine. Imagine, if you can, a monster of white aspect. 0(10 feet long. 7- feet broad, sitting L'7 feet in the water, and weighing 11,410 tons. Down in the hold of this great craft an army of coal heavers and firemen will shovel fuel into thirty yawning, glaring mouths. The steam thus generated is used in almost innumerable ways. There will he no fewer than a hundred engines in the Iowa when she is finished, electrical and hydraulic, used for the purposes of raising anchors, taking on and discharging stores, bringing- ammunition from the magazines to the great guns, turning the turrets', swinging the rudder, discharging ashes MirtS ma r.v i.oun tUiAKi:. from the fireboxes!, lifting and lowering the tdiip'x boats, beating aud drying every ftook and cranny of the hull, illuuiinatiuk

If T thousands of elect rio lamps, and the great searchlights as well, freezing tons of ioe for dnily use of t Ik crew pumping cohl air into the tirerooins. where the stokers stand almost naked r.t their work those are only a few of the wellnigh limitless purKscs to which steam is put on a modern man-of-war and the energy of coal is used to facilitate the daily work. Cost $1,000,000. The Iowa has Keen built in an almost ineredihly short time, indicative of the facilities which this country is acquiring for turning out great battleships in short order. The contract for the Iowa was awarded only a little more than three years ago. and her keel was not laid till August, ls'.i.;. This s'aip cost the Covern nieiit for hull and engines alone a little more than $:;.imni.immi. and her guns and appurtenances will oust more than a million in addition. The Iowa has a thousand tons greater displacement than her prototypes, the Indiana, Massachusetts and Oregon, which are already recognized as among the greatest naval vessels alloat. Her length on the water line will be ."r.o foot; beam. 71' feet l'1! inches: .haft. ! feet ! inches; displacement. ll.ilO toils. Her guarantee! speed is to be 111 knots an hour. The main battery consists of four PJ-ineh and eight S-inch breech loading rit'es anl six 4-inch rapid-lire guns, and the secondary battery of lil raj. id-tire guns, four (Jailing guns and live torpedo tubes. Her sides will be protected by 1 l-in.-h armor. The Iowa is titled with a ram, and in a close engagement her commander will be able to drive her at a speed of about twenty statute miles per hour, with all BATTLESHIP IOWA. tlu mighty rush of II. 4P tons of steel, pushed by engines having 11.O0O horsepower, at the foe. It is almost impossible to estimate what would be the cffi-t of such a blow. Nothing that floats could stand against it. The Iowa, as the latest and finest example of American naval architecture and engineering, has attracted the attention of all the foreign experts and is already one of the most notable vessels in the world. HE WAS HOLMES' LAWYER. For lu professional Conduct Shoemaker Temporarily Disbarred. William A. Shoemaker, a brilliant young Philadelphia lawyer, who was if T. A W Y K II J. 1 H I : l A K Kit. senior counsel for the notorious Holmes on his trial last fall, has been .suspended from the privileges of the Pennsylvania courts for one year. He was found guilty of subornation .f perjury in that case and was sentenced Saturday. Shoemaker got a woman to sign a false allidavit to the effect that Pitezel. the man murdered by Holmes, had in her presence expressed an intention to commit suicide. The principal evidence furnished in the attempt of the prosecution at London to prove that the Transvaal prisoners had violated the foreign enlistment act related to the cutting of the telegraph wires. The examination was adjourned until April ÜS to give time for the arrival ia Ltii'luud of witnesses from SoiTtu Africa.

RECORD OF THE WEEK

INDIANA INCIDENTS TERSELY TOLD. Itcmnrkaldc Matrimonial Career ot Alexander Khiiiiea C. Miller's Heirs IHg; lip Two Cans Full of (ioldClcver Jail lirrakcrs Are Foiled. Has Hcen Married Nine Times. ' f all the remarkable matrimonial careers that of Alexander Khimes. who recently lived in Pulton township. Indiana, exceeds anything yet come to notice in this line. This gentleman, who a few months ago celebrated his 70th birthday, lias been married nine times, has been divorced from eight of his wives, and ha now petitioned the curt to untie the marital knot that binds him to his ninth spoue. The oft-repeated u e sAI.KX. KHIMKS. ti"ti. -Is marriage a failure':" can be more satisfactorily answered by him than by any other I ving person. The names of his various: spouses follow: Pmaline Candy. Marth;. Kobbins. Samantha llengal, Laiinia Straw. Anna Rowland, Sarah Overt ree, Kachel Magnum, to whom he was married twice; Stella lilooinhagen. Khinies now lives in llerrien County, Mich, and it is said contemplates another conquest when the courts shall set him at liberie His Treasure Diagram Correct. ('. Miller, a pioneer of Decatur, aged 7 years, died Friday night. He was known by his family and neighbors to be quite wealthy. In his vest pocket he carlied a small paper mi which was a diagram showing the location of the places in which he had placed his gold. The family, following the directions on the paper, brought to light .o.imm in gold that was hid in coffee essence cans. In some places there was only one JsjO gold piece in a can. The family took the money to town in a gripsack and placed it in the bank for safe keeping until the estate is settled. All Over the State. Fred Kaler, f Cl.-nw ..l. while attempting to board a moving train at Kushville. fell between the cars and was instantly killed. The coroner holds that Wesley Linville. found dead in the dynamo room of the American carbon factory, died of natural causes and not from a shock of electricity. John Milh r. who says that his mother. Mrs. Mary Pietz, of No. ion Fifty-first si reef, Chicago, is w orth about M M . was arrested at Terre Haute for passing three forged checks. He confessed that iie is tin- man who in the last two months parsed many forged checks in Indianapolis. He telegraphed to his mother to collie to his rescue. In the Curtis nun-dor case at Lafayette tit" State sprung a sensation by introducing a witness, pverett Moline. who is serving a jail senleiice for stealing paint, who swore that White had i-onfessed the murder of Mrs. Curtis to him. Mobile's statement covered every point of the -rime and the defense could not trip him in any way. White listened to the damaging evidence Without emotion. T. C. Crose has deeded a valuable lot to the Church of Christ of Marion upon curious conditions. If an organ or other musical instrument is us;m1 or kept on the promises, or if a church fair, festival r any form f e r.eriaiiiment unauthorized by the New Testament is held on the grounds, the property will pass to the control of those members of the church who oppose organs and i-iunvh fairs. Mr. Crose is a member of the church and is somewhat eccentric The property was accepted. A phenomenon that is puzzling physicians is the case of S. C. Pipper. of Milroy. Mr. Pippi r is SÖ years oh! a id has been blind for twelve years. He suddenly lost his sight while reading a newspaper and has never been able to distinguish day from night since. The other night during the regular family worship he prayed and asked that the Lord return his sight. He opened the Itible and his vision returned to him as suddenly as it had departed and he w as able io read several favorite passages. He has been a constant member of the Ilaptist Church since childhood. A double tragedy occurred on the farm of William Frost, seven miles north of Noblesville, Monday. .lames and Henry McCoy, brothers, have been living in the neighborhood for a year. Monday morning Henry left his home to haul some wood. When he returned he was met in the yard by James, who. w ithout a word, emptied the contents of a shotgun into his body. The murderer then killed himself with the same weapon. James and Henry were both feeble-minded, but were regarded as inoffensive and harmless. It was evident that Janus did the shooting, but the cause of the quarrel will never be known. Never before have hard times had such a depressing inllueiice upon the ship building industry of the great livers as during the present prostration. One of the fewyards which has been able to keep most of its men steadily at work is the great one of Capt. I'M Howard, in Jeffersoiiville. It has now been in operation for over sixty years, and most of the line boats that pi ud the river in ante bellum times were built there. Speaking of the dullness of limes. Capt. IM Howard remarked that there was almost absolutely no work in near sight, and there have never been so few U.ats built as just now. The yard, during its long existence, had never shut down, but there was no telling what might happen. What is true of the yai'ds at this point is true also of those at Mound City. Padueah, Cincinnati. Madison and Pittsburg. The only work w hich is offering now is in the way of repairs. C. J. Wood, aged '.to. and Miss Maggie 1 larger, aged IS. were married at Creensburg. It was Wood's sixth marriage, and he urged a reduction of the license fee, as he had been such a good customer, and he also said he might come again. The Chicago and Nashville limited train on the Chicago and Pastern Illinois road, dasied into an oil lank car at Hillsdale while running thirty-tiv. miles an hour, igniting the oil, and for a time it was thought the train would be burned. The passengers were badly shaken up. The engineer and fireman jumped to save Uieir Ii tu.
