NEW CUP DEFENDER.
Some Features of ihr lierrenkoSi’ j
tautest Creation.
The latest candidate for cup defense
Louors is being ruslieu to completion in ; .
the yards of the Herreshoffs, at Bristol,
K. I- for launching April 15, says the
New York World. The latest informs- i
tioa shows that the boat is already
la frame, that she is a marvel of beau¬
ty la regard to lines und construction, i
that while Inf frames and ribs are
heavier than u*?ual the shell is lighter,
that the frames of nickel steel are
stronger than in any other racing boat
the Uerresboils Lave built, that the
shell is the lightest on record except
tiis»t of tue o*u ijctcrdcr i.„ fw „ h r «uiu ,.>,1 thu tL.it lu iw
mast of nickel steel plates is the strong
est spar that the Herreshoffs have ever
turned out.
Oue of the most notable features
about her is the generous use of Tobin
bronze. This strenuous metal is used
for the underbody of the boat. It eu
tirely covers the lead for the keel and
also the sheathing for the craft far
above the waterline.
So far as the mast is concerned the
details are explicit. What the engine
is to a steamboat the mast is to a sail
ing yacht. In this instance the mast
Itself seems so strongly imbedded in
tbe hull of the ship that it resembles
the .. roots . of , an oak , tree. It is . lid ,,,,
feet from stem to head. It is made of
plates of nickel steel 7.40 inch thick.
Its diameter Is 20 inches. It is strength
ened by ti n buib angled stiffeners made
of solid nickel steel 2 Vj inches by 2
Inches, the whole making a cylindrical
tube that a man of moderate girth
measurement could crawl through.
It is the strongest spar ever turned
out by the Herreshoffs. It must be
interesting to the mathematicians who ,
measure sail areas to know the dis- j
tance from the center of the mast to i
j the stern is 50 feet, that the distance
1 from the center of tile mast to the top
sail is SO feet 4 inches. The boom of j
the new craft is 111 feet long, four feet j
longer than Columbia's, it is stiffen strength- |
cned by ten flange plates to it. j
Great speed is being made In the con- j
struction of ;0 ciit. The riveters i
are only three days behind the layer ;
j out. so that the hull will be completed (
i by the first v.-eek in April. There is j
also one g: on the inside riveting up ,
tiie mast step. " The rushing
men are
things and working harder than they
ever worked before.
j ANTIQUITIES i !
IN A GARRET.
IIotv I,ons Forgotten Gifts to Vale
Wore I! ro unlit to l.islit.
While moving boxes in the garret of
i Peabody museum at Yale Dr. George
! Grant -McCurdy, curator of the an¬
thropological collections of the mu
s'-iim, recently discovered a large box
which was entirely unknown to the
catSldgne of the museum, says a New
Ilaven (Conn.) Special to the Philadel
piiia Press.
On opening the box it was found to
contain a collection of Flathead In¬
dian skulls collected by the late Pro¬
fessor O. C. Marsh. As this box was
being opened a smaller box was dis¬
covered on which was inscribed the
date “January, 1S58,” with a 111 em
orandum stating that the box contained
Egyptian antiquities and had been pro- :
sented to the museum by the Itev. Ly¬
man Coleman, Yale. 1S17.
It was found to contain the mummies ;
of a child, of some small animal, a
mummified left hand of a woman and
some other pieces which have not yet I
been identified. They will be restored
| at once and placed in the museum.

fifteen hundredweight lighter than
that of Shamrock II., while the whole
spur is eighteen hundredweight lighter
than the lower mast of Shamrock I.
The workmen declare that they do
not see how the steel shell is to with¬
stand the enormous strain of a high
wind, hut they admit that the desi gr.er
is apparently satisfied with the result,
since there is no talk of building an
extra spar for an emergency. The gaff
and boom are about tbe same weight
as previous spars.
Doom of Vera Cruz’s Buzzards.
The buzzards that have long infested

as ; winged scavengers are doomed. A
London firm is putting in a modern
sewer and water system. The birds
Lave become so numerous that they are
a pest. I he protection of the muniei

new drainage system is completed the
city will be rid of this pest, the num
bers of which have already been re¬
duced somewhat by catching the buz¬
zards and placing them, in wooden
cages to be taken to sea and drowned.
Hare Find In Esj-pt.
Charles H. s. Davis, the American
Egyptologist, who has expended con
slderable sums in exploration work
near Thebes, has found a splendid
chariot in the tomb of King Tbotbmes,
says a cable dispatch from Cairo to the
Chicago Tribune. The fittings of the j
chariot are of bronze, and the remain- ■
dor is of gilded wood. The chariot is
valued at $25,000.
