Tho "Sophie" visited Auckland some few years ago. RUDDER WITH DOOR IN IT. A rudder with a doorway into tho Interior is a striking feature of tho Cun&rd giant liner Aquifcania, which is shortly to be launched. The rudder hae just been placed in position," and is so large that a doorway h&6 been constructed in ths lower part to admit workmen so that they can remove the pin which connccts the rudder to the ship.. This oin is 4ft. in, length, and bigger than tho heaviest projectiJc nia-do for modern artillery. A special appliance had to. be constructed/in tho ship to lift it into position. When delivered at tho builder's yard tho rudder wao in three parts. After they had been connected and laid upon tho ground, the distance that had to be walked to posg round it was over 100 ft.

One of the loneeet passages ever mado by the well-known British ship Longdate was completed on May 10. Tho trip was from Cape Town to Newcastle, one that lias been done in 30 odd dare, and frequently in a little over 40 days, but the Lancdale. owing to adverse weather, was exactly 60 days in covering the distance.
