EDWARD

AND TO

immense proportions of these new liners HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS

Mr Talbot saya :—

"They will each be approximately 800 ft. in length, 88 ft. wide, by dft. deep. They will displaca 43,400 tons, and in order to obtain the minimum speed of 244 ots per hour, the gigantic turbines will develop Home 80,000 hores-power. If stood on end beside St. Paul's Cathedral they would tower to twice the height of that edifico. while if flosted beside it the top of the masts would almost reach to the dóme of the building."

The record spoed in knots per hour, at present bald by the German ships ** Deuts. ghland" and "Kaiser Wilhelm 11." at 23 6, will in their case he 25, and when they settle down to their work it is expected that their spoed will be nearer

20 than 25 knots. They have been named the "Mauritania" and "*Lusi- taoia."

The former is built at the Clyde Bank Works of Messrs John Brown & Co., the latter at the Wallsend shipyards of Messrs Swan, Hunter & Co. At Clyde Bank the work is uncovered, at Wallsend the ship is built in a covered shed. A fo other features of interest may be here

given :-

"The most important structural element

the double buttom, which is 5ft. 6in. in depth between the outer and inner shells. The rudder weighs 70 tons complete and has a stock 26in. in diameter. The total weight of the stern frame, brackets, and rudder is approximately 220 tona. In transporting the frame from the foundry at Darlington to the water's edge at Middles- brough the framo projected over the side of the special waggou to such an extent that three sets of rails were required. Portions of stations and signal posts had to be temporarily removed to permit the load to paas.

The first-class dining saloon extends the full width of the ship, 80ft., end is 125ft. long, and will seat 500 persons: -

The ship will have accommodation for 600 first-class, 500 second.class, and soine 1,200 third class passengers. The crew will number 800, so that with a full com plement the vessel will become a fosting hotel, carrying 3,000 souls. By the system of lifte pas-etigers will be able to reach any deck, quickly and easily.'

The anchoring cables have been subjected to a tension of over 370 tons, 90 per cent. in excess of the breaking strain imposed by

the British Admiralty, the greatest tensile strain ever applied to a cable.

American Insurance Companies.

Mr Haldeman, late manager of the Mutual Life Insurance Society of Now York, is now the joint-manager of the North British and Mercantile, and this British Company offers to take over the interests of the British policy-holders in the Mutual Life, which are estimated at nine millions sterling. The British Com- mittee of the Mutual Life supports the proposal; but the press in London advisos caution.

SCRATCH RACI

To morroir of tornison a seratch race will be contested by members of the Vistoria Recreativo Club, in which four boats will take part.

The race will be over the three quarter mild course at Yaumati and it is sotfested that a close struggle will be witnessed. Owing to the unfav urable weather training has had to be relinquished to a great extent but in this respect all crow have suffered alike, consequently they will go to the start in approximately the same condition. In enpsequence of lack of training a well rowed ra o is not to be expected Witchell's crow, as usual, is favourite, though there are many who are inclined to pin their faith to Lammert's four. J. Alves has a crow which will row well, but N. H. Alves' quartette does not appear to be anything formidable. All things being equal Lammert's crew should win, with Witchell's or J. Alver' second, There should be little to probably Alves choose between the first three hoats, bowoyer.

If more outside team entered the Water Polo Competition it would be better. Last year there were Fix teams-two from the R. G. A., one from the Yacht Club, and three from the V. R. C.

All vigour and activity left me. My appetite fall away, and I suffered from acute indigestion. The pains in my chist and sides grew more violent, until I was repelled by the sight of food,

Just at this time it occurred to me to try Dr Williams' Pink Pills. So I began taking them, and after seven pille I felt the pains shifting. I got rapidly better, and with one bottle all pain had disappeared. Then I could eat without discomfort. T elt bright and cheerful; new life came to mo, and I felt ten years younger. 1 Williams Pink Pills gave such strength and energy that I followed my occupation without any fear of breakdown. Now I am a healthy, vigorous man again, always ready for a hard day's work,' A

When your vital organs become weaken- ed they can be restored to healthy activity only by an increased supply of rich, pure blood. Dr Williams' Fink Pille feed the sfarved veins with good, rett blood, and fortify the whole nervous system. These pills have cured Anemia, Indigestion, Bile, Palpitations, Auenza, Eczema, Consumption, Kidney Disonae, Rheuma. tism, Lamb g, Sciatica, St. Vitus' Dance. Paralysis, Locemotor Ataxy, Ladies' Ailments. The Dr Williams' Medicine Co., Singapore, will send post free to any address six bottles for $7, or one bottle for $1.25 (Straits Currency).
