Where nine months ago was a morass.
.partly under water and covered with
Weeds and brush. Is now a modern ship
building plant, larger than any five
others In America combined, a plant
with fifty ways upon which fifty ships
can and will be built, simultaneously.
, Announcement that the tremendous
.Hog Island project was .virtually ac
complished was made today by George
'J. Baldwin, lce president of the Ameri
can International Corporation, parent of
the American International Shipbuilding
Corporation, which has built the huge
plant and wilt build the ships.
The announcement was made' coinci
dent with the laying of the thirty-first
keel at the plant the keel of the 7S00
'ton cargo ship Skeeton.
Nine months ago Hog Island's 900
.soft, muddy, sandy and brushy acres
lhad not even a dependable road through
Jthem. Now they are solid ground where
thirty thousand men hae worked for
nine months to make a shipyard and
,show that the United States has an
lefflclency of Its own when it gets started
Jand can do cen the seemingly inipos
(Bible when called upon.
1 Twenty Mllra of Itoailn
, The Island Is two miles long and oru
jwlde. It has more than twenty miles
,of good, serviceable roads. It lias seventy-five
miles of first-class lallroad
trackage and a railroad system of Its
,own, which Includes GOO freight cars,
fifty passenger coaches and twenty-five
locomotives all on an Island one mile
iby two.
J The Emergency Fleet Corporation of
the United States shipping beard under
cook the production of more than 6,000,
J000 tons' deadweight of merchant shlp
iPlng to meet war needs In the autumn
of 1917. Two and a quarter million
,tons we-e to be produced In the great
I Delaware IHver shipbuilding section and
jS5,000 tans were allotted to Hog Island
lnd the American International Ship
building Corporation, which at fhijt time
"Was existent only on paper,.
The Hog Island contract called for
completion of 120 ships within twenty
i two months after signing of the con
j tract last autumn fifty to be of 7500
,tons each and 400 feet long and sev
i enty to be of 8000 tons and 450 feet long.
' The last of these ships will be launched
j In July, next year.
I Water and Sewer Systems
I The plant has twenty acres of bulld
,' Inga shops, warehouses and adminls
f tratlon offices. The water supply sys-
tem, now complete, Is equal to that of
' the city of Minneapolis, a city of 300,000
I souls. The sewerage system Is equal to
J! the best in the, best communities of
J-0.000.
"J Electric power Is furnished by the
, Philadelphia Electric Company, which,
In order to supply the plant, has denied
.; power to others. It has just borrowed
i $10,000,000 from the United States
Shipping Board to put up two special
i plants to suply the Hog Island yard. It
J must provide current for the 600 motors,
, whose combined horsepower Is 28,00p.
( Thls'ls current that ordinarily supplies a
city of a quarter of a million popula
I tlon.
J The compressed air plant 15,000
J horsepower Is exceeded only by that of
j the Hand Mines in South Africa. The
I capacity of the Hog Island air plant- is
I 7,5,000 feet of air a minute.
The west basin, where the ships will
i be completed and outfitted twenty-eight
' at a time, has an eighteen-foot depth,
, which means dredging equal to that done
i on the Panama Canal. The berthing of
these ships calls for a dock 1800 feet
long and seven supplementing piers,
which are provided.

Rumored
'
. ,
Benny Kauff, the Giants' great out-
neicier. may yet get into the Delaware
River Shlpvard League. F. D. Bo.vnton,
manager of the New York Ship team, to-
day told of a rumor to the effect that
Kauff Is to be placed In one of the local
shipyards.
Benny played his last game with the
Giants last Saturday, and on Tuesday
was "sent by his draft board to Camp
Sherman, at Chllllcothe. O. So It Is
thought rather late now for anything
else, but It Is to be remembeied that
Joe Jackson, the White Sox outfielder,
got a transfer from his draft board,
and Is now starring on the Harlan Ship
team at Wilmington.
At any late, the rumor has stirred up
the shipyard fans, and there will un
doubtedly be a tussle among the eight
teams In the league for Kauff's serv- I
Ices. I'nless he has already been signed '
up, though, he could not be of much
use to any team this season. The ship
yard league season ends on August 10.
Under league rules no player signed up
after June 26 can be plaved until thirty
davs after his name has been officially
rcnnrl.H tn IVta tMRlrlnt rtf 1,a l.,mia '
But In a hot pennant race, where a
single game would decide the champion
ship, a player like Kauff might turn de
feat Into victory.
This plaers' rule Is not to be sus
pended In any ease, according to a spe
cial ruling passed at the regular league
meeting In the Wldener Building, this
cltv. Tuesday evenlncr. Manager Miller
of the Chester Shipbuilding Company's
nlna it'll a tt'aa i HalarQta tn li -.-. A 4 1 -. .
" " UV.H. ,,- t" ltC lill'dlUK,
apparently had In mind a man he was
anxious to piny at once,. Some of the
fans wonder If this was Kauff, but
Miller was not doing any of that kind
or taiidng. lie asKea for susnens on '
of the thirty-day rule In case he lost
any of his men by draft, discharge or
otherwise, and was flataly turned down.
Managers of the other teams were on
their feet In an Instant with a kick, ,
which was sustained by President Samp
son. Miller's team Is leading the league,
but only one game ahead of the New
Voik Ship boys. Either of these nines i
could use Kauff to great advantage.
These rivals have not yet met on the
diamond, and when they do clash on
July S at Camden the fans expect to see
a battle. The Harlan team, of Wilming
ton, was tied with New York for second
place until last Saturday, when the
Chester boys trimmed them, leaving
second place entirely to' the New York
aggregation.
Manager Miller is relying on Twining
to pitch his team to the pennant vic
tory. Twining lias won every game
thus far, but McGinley, one of the New
York's fllngers, has done the same io
the four games he has pitched. The
New Yorks Just lost Smith, one of their
"big three," but still have Barnard and
McUinley,
The fans think this game at Camden
will decide the merits of the two close
rivals, and rooters on both sides seem
full of confidence.

Florence Ea'lon Scores Another
Tri-
umpli Rifroletto at Matinee
The second nerformanco of "Madama
Butterfly" In the current opera festival
drew a large audience to the Academy
of Munlc-last evening. Two singers, not
heretofore heard heie In this most popu
Iar of Puccini's music dramas, sang the
leading roles. Florence Easton, although
physically not well suited to the part
of the little Japanese light o love, de
llvered the haunting measures of this
nart with thrilling tonal beauty Not
since Emmy Destlnn flr.-Jt sang Clo-CIo
San here has Its music been so ar-
tlstlcallv treated.
Francis Maclennan characterized the
American naval lieutenant sincerely, not
"operatlcally," and was easily enual to
the vocal demands of this rather un
j Kraciou, roie. As In last week's pre
sentation, Bouillez was the Sharpless
and Viola Robertson the handmaiden.
"Blgoletto" was the afternoon bill

CENE A rainy night, soldier paces
slowly back and forth doing sentry
duty; comes a change of guards; he Is
released from duty, his first thought Is
for a smoke: he reaches for his ciga
rettes, only to find that they are so
damp they will not burn. If only, before
he left, you had given him a-waterproof
cigarette case. They are khakt-cov-ered,
rubber-lined and hold thirty clga
jettes. The price Is fifty cents and for
the better ones, covered with khaki
silk moire, the price Is one dollar
It Is all very well to talk about merry
pillow covers, but what If you have no
pillows to dress In them? Why. then,
of course, you should see the display
I saw today of pillows and covers com

Have jnu a white toilet set for your
dresser or chiffonier? And is It com

but that Is because you have not seen
the quaint little flower pots of white to
match your set, holding rare artificial

one of these would look on either side
of the dressing table or bureau. They

may be had for fifty cents each.
