Another Ship Builder
Seek Local Site
Attractive Conditionsfor This
aa a private concern and he asks
for a site to accommodate a yard
for the building of schooners of
1000 tons each and four barges of
800 tons each. Hs states that he
wants a site for permenant use
and that the shipbiulding work pro
posed comes outside of the govern
ment requirements.
Mr. Gardner has come direct
fr$n Houston where he was advised
by Mr. C. N. Crowell, Gulf Coast
Manager of the U. S. Shipping
Board, that suitable» sites for his
purpose- could be found. He has
been assüred that the government
shipbuilding requirements will not
interfere with the building of
ships coming without the govern
ment timber requirements and that
much lumber is available for ships
ét the tonnage mentioned by Mr.
Gardner. The gentlemen from
Montreal says that he has received
encouragement from other mem
bers of the shipping board and that
his attention has been directed to
this section by men who have made
a study of conditions here.
Through government charts and
information already a matter of
record, Mr. Gardner comes here
conversant with the geodetic de
tails necessary* to his purpose. It
appears from his statements that it
only remains to find a site which
may be secured on attractive terms.
This matter is now being canvassed
by Secretary Palmer who has. the
details of shipbuilding sites in
hand and who will doubtless be
able to find for the gentlemen Jrom
Montreal something eminently sat
isfactory in every particular.
In speaking of the reports of this
section that had come to him, Mr.
Gardner said that the shipyard be
ing installed here by the Union
Bridge and Construction Company
«ras the source of a great deal of
Comment in shipbuilding ; circles.
Mr. Gardner has had a conversation
with members of the party headed
by Col. E. F. Stevens of the U. S
Shipping Board who visited this
dty a few days ago and he says
Jh at those gentlemen were strong in
their praise of the local government

OPERA HOUSE FRIDAY
"Somewhere in America"
Tom Drogan, a guerilla addicted
to gambling and drink, is the object
of a good mother'a devotion, ex
emplary of the love of moat moth
an for the wayward one. His a»
hr, Neil, is a sweet little girl, who,
more susceptible to her mother's
good teachings, has grown like
flower among weeds, with a great,
big affection for both, and an in
nocence that marks her apart en
tirely from her avrrovndiags.
One of Tom's drunken escapades
ee affects his mother, that in her
efforts to get him to their tenement
room, she is seised with heart trou
ble, which prove* fetal. Her dying
words, are to Nell to be patient
with Tom. He in the meantime, has
been sent by Nell for the doctor, end
* in his inebriated condition forgets
all about the ill mother, and is in
duced to go into a saloon and in
dulge further finally remembering
.hie errand and bringing thé physi
cian too late.
Tem brings Kid Hogan, another
guerilla, to the flat some days
ter to pay him à gimMtng debt: A
dispute leads to the shooting of Ho
gan through Che forearm,
la
and his
brother, a eheap ward politician and
a plain-clothes man in the police de
partment, hears the shot from the
street, meets Tom, as he tries to
get away, and is about to arrest
him, when Tom charges Hogan with
having tried to assault Nell. Al
though Hogan knows haiis innocent,
he realizes the gravity of the charge
her brother makes, to let Tom go—
he'll get even. Nell assents to the
charge her brother makes, to shield
him, and Hogan decides he will get
a woman associate of his, who lives
pi the next apartment to frame-up
the girl.
Hogan and two of his friends try
to shoot Tom from a roof, but miss
him. The girl, Mamie, then sets
about getting Nell in the toils^—
asks her to go with her to buy a
hat. On their way Mamie accosts
two men, and Hogan's brother, who
is conveniently near, arrests Nell,
making no attempt to catch the flee-
ing Mamie. Frank Roberts, Nell's
suitor, happens on the scene and
pilots here safely through the af-
fair.
Meanwhile, Tom has heard of the
framing-up of Nell and seeks Ho
gan, whom he knows is at the bot
tom of it. He finds him, with his
girl in a cheap dance hall, and there
their respective gangs engage in a
fight, in which several guerillas are
killed, while others make spectacu
lar getaways.
In this fraca^ Tom is rnortally
wounded while Hogan is killed. Tom
gets to their flat, just before. Frank
and Nell arrive from the station
house. Tom's dying words to Nell
are : "Don't let 'em get me, sis. Bar
the door." While the pursuing of
ficers are hammering the door in,
Tom drops the revolver, and Nell
picks it up crazed with the single
thought of protecting .her brother,
as she had promised her mother to
do.
Just as the officers break in the
door, Frank knocks her revolver up
as she fires. It is too late— the
brother is dead.
Do not fail to witness this thrill
ing picture at the Opera House to
morrow night.
