HONEST MXN AT THIGUNI.
/,
Englishman Ara Still Drawing Lm
sods from the Santiago Victory
Morality counts in fighting like
everything else. Your honest man is
a belter mao—in all things—than a
rogue According lo the tealimoLy
of one of the officers of the Spanish
flsat, ths crew of the Cristobal Colon
were mainly c>»'ivicl», taken out of
jail and l<>iusl»ty pat aboard the ship
just before she sailed from Spain Is
it to be supposed for one minute tbpl
men of thia elamp could stand up be
fore American sailors—sailors because
they love Jheir work and glory in their
country? Ahother Spanish officer is
authority for the statement that liquor
was plentifully served to all the crews
before the ships left Santiago harbor,
and that a great many of the men
were drank. Drunken convicts pittad
against sober, cool-headed American
freemen! Is it surprising that in
sixty minutes Oervera’s fleet was a
mass of twisted steel and iron, while
the American squadron bad passed
through its ordeal unscathed?
We have been finding explanations
for the marvelous "hitting qualities’’
of the American gunners, as demon
strated both at Manila and Santiago.
One, to me the simplest, has been
overlooked. There are very few
American naval commanders who have
hsd much experience in fleet work.
American squadrons have rarely con
sisted, since the close of the civil war
and until the commencement of pres
ent hostilities, of more than three or
four vessels, and these have generally
been scattered over the station.
There has been practically no op
portunity lor fleet evolutions, for the
intricate maneuvers which distinguish
European navies. In their place,
American commanders have devoted
their time to gun drill, to eub-caliber
and target practice, with the one end
in view of bringing their men to the
highest state of proficiency as gunners.
Probably in fleet tactical evolutions
the American admiral might be at a
disadvantage, but in gunnery be has
shown the world what be can do.
Another thing we have been taught
is the uselessness of the conning tows
er. It csnnot be ascertained that *
single commanding officer availed
himself of the protection of his armor
ed citadel. The epace is too narrow
to permit a captain to see everything
happening around him, and in action
the commander’s vision must not be
narrowed. Perhaps even a stronger
objection to the use ol the conning
tower is the implied reflection it con*
veys on the courage ol the command
ing officer. The men must stand in
open, the captain is safe behind bis
steel walls. The sight of the captain
standing on the bridge or pilot bouse,
seeing and seen by his msn, encourag
ing them by bis presence, sharing
with them the risks, ie an inspiration,
an incentive to greater deeds. Would
Nelson be the glorified figure of bisto
ry if he had been shot while telegraph
ing to the engine room from the cons
ning tower? Farragut laehed to the
rigging made even thelimidesta hero,
in comparative safety behind hie belt
ed walls the inspiration of his presence
would have been lost —London Chron

The readers of this paper will be pleas
ed to learn that there is at least one dread
ed disease that science has been able to
cure in all its stages and that is Catarrh.
Hall’s Catarrh Cure is the only positive
cure known to the medical fraternity.
Catarrh being a constitutional disease, re
quires a constitutional treatment. Hall’s
Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation or the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the cons
titution and assisting nature in doing its
work. The proprietors have so much
faith in its curative powers, that they offer
One Hundred Dollars tor any case that it
fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials.
