CONSTRUCTED ON THE SAME WAYS Light Draft Boats for Coast and River Service. MODERN IMPROVEMENTS a oe The lacrch of the new light-draft gun- boats Nashville and Wilmington, which are being built for the navy by the Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company, takes place at Newport News, Va., tomor- row morning. The event will be remarka- ble as the first instance on record of the launch on the same day of two naval ves- sels of this size from a single set of ways. The vessels arc placed “tandem fashion,” one anead of the other, so that the ground ways on which the ship which is nearest the weter (the Nashville) is launched are prolonged under her consort, the Wilming- ton, so that the same set of ways serves for both ships. Although the vessels are to be launched cn the same day, there will be an intervai of an hour or so between the two launchings, however, since it ts necessary to recoat with tallow the launch- ing ways for the space occupied by the launch of tye Nashville before the Wil- mington can be allowed to follow her; and it will also be necessary to allow time to remove the shores and the keel blocks from under the Wilmington after the Nashville has been placed in the water. The arrangement of the versels in “‘tan- dem” on the same building slip is due to the fact that the works of the contractors are instailed for constructing chips of the largest size, and the slip on which these two vessels have been built is of sufficient length to accommodate a [0-foot ship, whereas the Nashville is only 233 feet 5 1-2 inches long over all, and the Wilmington 251 feet 10 inches long. The two vessels to be launched are built in accerdance with an act of Congress ap- proved March 3, 1893. Going From Washington. A large and distinguished party of offi- cials and social lights will leave here this evening on the specially chartered steamer Newport News to witness the launch. It will include Secretary Herbert, the Attor- ney General, Mrs. Harmor. and the Misses Harmon, Assistant Secretary and Mrs. McAdoo, Mr. and Mrs. Micou, Capt. and Mrs. W. T. Sampson, Paymaster General and Mrs. Stewart, Engineer-in-chief Mel- ville, Cnief Constructor and M Hich- born, Commodore and Mrs. McNair, Col. and Mrs. Heywood, Capt. and Mrs. Har- rington, Capt. and Mrs. Lemly, Lieut.

Hamilton, Mr. L. N. Finney, Mr. H. C. Snyder, Mr. Howell. The party from Delaware to ma trip from bere will include Mr. Gray the Senator), Mrs. Thompson, Miss Black, Miss Wilson, Miss Mclivain, Miss Draper and Represent~ ative J. S. Willis. ‘The party from Tennessce was to have been composed as follows: Mr. George B. Guild, mayor of Nashville; Miss Maria Guild, Miss Maria Reid, Miss Georgie Orr, Mr. Robert Orr and Masters Washington. : A Change of Program. A telegram was received at the Navy De- partment this morning from Mr. Orr at Nashville stating that William Guild, son of the mayor of Nashville, had been acci- dentally shot and killed there last evening. The sender of the telegram requested that the sad news be broken to the mayor, who, with his daughter, was en route to Wash- ington to join the party going to Newport News, where the young lady was to chris- ten the gunboat Nashville. The tel was forwarded at once to Harper's Ferry to catch the incoming train. As May: ia Guild are requested ile at once, the pians for the launch have been somewhat disar- ranged, and another young lady will be se- lected ‘to christen the Nashville, pos: Miss Georgia Orr of Nashville, who will be present. {son of Miss Anne Gray, Miss Cooper, The Nashville. The Nashville is a lignt-draft twin-screw gunboat, designed for generai cruising. In coast work her moderate draft of water will enable her.to enter many ports that most men-of-war are excluded from on ac- count of their greater draft. She is 220 feet long on the water line, 233 feet 5 1-2 inches long over all, with a maximum beam of 38 feet. At her normal draft of 11 feet her displacement is 1,371 tons. She is schooner rigged, with two pole masts, and has two smokepipes; her total coal bunker capacity Is 590 tons. In smal! vessels of this class previously built for the navy the hulls have been built with raised poop and forecastle, separated by an open space or “well.” On the Nash- ville, however, the upper deck extends flush and unbroken from bow to stern, thus af- fording mcst ample berthing and living quarters for the crew, and removing the objection often urged agairst small cruis- ers—that they are wet and unhabitable in bad weather. ‘Another important feature in the design of this vessel is the large amount of ,coal she can carry in proportion to her size, and the especial attention: given to providing her with machinery of the most economical character, so that she will be able to make long sea passages of equal lengths to those made by many lerze cruisers. To this end she has been provided with two special types of boilers. By this means the will be able to cr for long periods of time at a moderate cruising speed. using her economical boil- ers only, whilst still being able, if desired, to rapidly increase her speed to its extreme mit by starting fires under her remaining boilers. No attempt has been made to give her extreme speed, but that provided, four- teen to fifteen knots an hour, will be amply sufficient for the duties required of such a vessel. The main battery consists of cight four- inch, breech-loading, rapid-fire guns. Four of these guns are on the upper deck, the remainder on the gun deck. The axis of the upper deck guns being nineteen feet above the water line, a remarkable height for a vessel of this size, it should be possi- ble to use them in the roughest weather. There are also four six-pounder and two one-pounder rapid-fire guns and two Gatling guns, All the armor is made of nickel steel. There is one fixed torpedo tube mounted in the bow and one search light, placed just above the pilot house and forward of the foremast. The Wilmington, The Wilmington has been built for an en- tirely different character of service from that for which the Nashville is intended. i Although in every respect a perfectly sea-xoing vessel, the Wilmington and her sister ship, the Helena, whose launch will not take place for several weeks, are both designed especially for river ‘service. It is frequently necessary to send gunboats on foreign stations tong distances up rivers to afford protection to American citizens. pe able to do so, these vessels m: be of very light draft. ference of a foot only fn draft will mean the success or failure of such an ex- pedition. On the Asiatic station the paddle-wheel steamer Monocacy has for many years ren- dered invaluable assistance to American raissionaries and other citizens in China, at times going up Chinese rivers a thousand miles from the sea, and merely by her pres- | ence preventing riot and danger to foreign- | ers of every nationality. + All the special requirements for this serv- ice are well fulfilled in the Wilmington. She is 250 feet 8 3-4 inches long on the water line, and 251 feet 10 inches long over | Hungarians who were cruelly is not a secret remedy. It is simply the purest Norway Cod- liver Oil, the finest Hypophos- phites, and chemically pure Glyc- erine, all combined into a perfect — Emulsion so that it will never change or lose its integrity. This is the secret of Scott's Emulsion’s great success. It is the happy combination of these most valuable ingredients, materially increasing their po- tency; hence the great value of Scott’s Emulsion in wasting dis- eases. We think people should © know what they are taking into their stomachs. Dont be persuaded to accept a substitute ! ‘Scott & Bowne, N.Y. Ali Druggists. 50c. and $1 all, with a maximum beam of 40 feet. Ata draft of 9 feet her displacement 18 1,391 ions. In external appearance she will resemble a small battleship, as she has a large mill- y mast with two military tops, sim‘lar in all respects to the one on the battleship Iowa, and which serves to command the banks of a river or houses in any town where she may have to prevent rioting. A conning tower on the mast, just below the first military top, enables the ship to be maneuvered at a height of forty-five feet above the water line. The space available for quarters. of the crew is very large and affords berthing eapacity for many additional men besides her crew. To facilitate landing a large body of men, she has ships’ boats of an unusual size, her steam cutter and sailing launch being each thirty-three feet long, or as large as those supplied to the heaviest battleships. The machinery consists of triple expansion twin screw engines. The total coal bunker capacity is about 28) tons. In order to provide a free flow of water to the screw propellers, the after body of the vessel has been largely cut away and two rudders are provided, one ahead of the other, In the middle Iine of the vessel. This, to- gether with heavy br: are fitted just abaft the after ru her swing around with the current when turning in narrow channels, all give ber a very novel appearance. Her battery is the same as that of the Nashville, and her guns are protected in the same manner. She ‘is provi search Light, placed on her military mast, but she has no torpedo tubes. Having now served their apprenticeship in the construction of naval vessels, it will be more than probable that the Newport News company will secure at least one of the new battleships authorized by Congress, and perhaps some still larger vessels for & foreign navy, which their extensive plant w:ll enable them to build with remarkable rapidity. FAMILY TROUBLES. Geo, Taylor Has 1 Wife Who Objects to Threats. George Taylor, a colored man, who is a bricklayer by trade, and who has an in- eresting family, a wife and three children, .d of whisky that he has left the wife and little ones to look out for them- selves, and now the government is caring for him. AN the discussion about the es- tablishment of a whipping post for men who ill-treat their wives seems to have had no effect on him, for he nut to his wife's home, 1152 16th street, three days ago and made her seek a place of safety elsewhere, and yesterday when he appeared for trial on charges preferred against him by his wife he was se much uncer the influence of liquor that he was unable to make a con- nected statement. Several times during the trial he became so noisy ihat the court had to order the bailiff to restrain him. “How long have you been married?” Judge Miller asked the woman, who is more than convinced that marriage with her has been a complete failure. Her husband, she says, does not con- tribute to the support of her children or herself, and her brother rents the house for her. During the absence of her brother, she says, he comes there under the influence of liquor, chokes her and runs her out of the house He has made her leave the house is so fou when she was only partly dressed, and sezk + the protection of men on the street. “How long have you been separated?” Judge Miller asked “Two years,” she answered, “and he al- ways comes there and wents to know vhat Iam going to do. I tell him lL can’t do any- thing so long as he is a drunkard.” An addition to his assaulting her the other day, he safd he would kill her if she had him arrested.
