Walsh pointed to huge oval grommet
made of hemp rope and asked if any Of
the party knew what a ''jackass'' was
on board ship. The eX-naval man
said yes he had heard OF such things,
and wanted to know Of Mr.~-Walsh
which particular one he meant, the
marine officer or the greenest midship-
man. Mr.. Walsh scowled at this reply,
but proceeded to show the crowd what
q genuine jaclass is. For the benefit,
of those who may think that this is a
sly dig at Gunner Walsh himself, which
it is not by any means, it should be
said that a ships ''jackass" is a struct-
ure of hempen rope which takes the
place of the chain in the hawse holes
when the ship is at sea. But for the
jackass, who rears his stately rump to
the cresting waves, the water would
come in. the hawse holes in a heavy
sea and might sink the ship. This very
thing occurred at the dreadful hurri-
cane at Samoa q few years ago when
the flagship Trenton went down.
But it is not alone in modern naval
appliances that the exhibits on the bat
tie ship are interesting. Nearly all of
the treasures Of naval history taken
from museums at various naval yards
are on exhibit. There are pictures and
models of historical ships; portraits of
eminent heroes from Paul Jones down,
and hundreds Of interesting things
Which visitors love to ponder over. In
fact Capt. Haussig has under his COM
mand one of the most instructive feat
| ures Of the great exposition. He has,
too, what very few naval commanders
in command of a battle ship can boast
of, and that is absolute immunity from
any danger of collision. Since the
British disaster this fact has been
brought home to him in a comforting
! way. While it is true Capt: Taussig
| cannot maneuver his ship because she
| is cemented securely to the beach, it
| is equally true that no other vessel can
run into her. And so when Capt. Taus-
sig comes out of his magnificent cabin,
| and with spyglass in hand observes the
approach of the whalebach he is not at
all concerned. He doesn't care whether
the captain Of the Whaleback is ,obeying
orders or whether he isn't, he has, no
apprehension as to whether the steer
ing gear of either Of either vessel works
or whether it does not He is as Sc
renely placid as the statue of Lord
Nelson on a PEDESTAL. He knows that
if the Whalebatk should lose her rudder
even or in any other way become ul-
comfortable his own ship would be safe.
Long before the Whaleback could reach
her happy Prov would be in the air,

gers tumbling into the water There

the catastrophe that even newspaper
artists who sought to sketch the model
were regarded as sacrilegious :ntersop-
ers and carried off to Jail.
This feeling as to the model OF the
Victoria has somewhat subsidized, but
there are thousands Of other people
who are more and more anxious in the
light of the horrible details of the
catastrophe, to know what real bat
tie ship looks like, and so for the past
week or more the battle ship Illinois
has been one of the most sought after
of the exhibits of the fair. So much
has been written about the Illinois that
her construction and existence at the
fair is rather an old story, but the
crowd who throngs her decks and gang
ways hourly attest the deep interest
which is felt upon naval matters. The
ship is now under command of Lieut.
| Commander E. D. Taussig. Under him
are Lieut.. Poundstone, Ensign Blow
Passed Assistant Engineer Bennett,
Lieut.. Russell, of the United States
marine corps, and Gunner J. ]. Walsh,
| United States navy. Considering the
exacting and somewhat novel nature Of
their duties these officers are to be
commended for the patience, polite
ness and discrimination with which
| they perform them. During all the
open hours of the exposition they are
beset by people who have never seen
a ship nor the model Of one, who do
not know an anchor from an eye-bOlt,
or main truck from q keelplate;
nor do they know a copper kettle from
a harness cask. All day long these
officers are beset with foolish questions,
and not once is there any record of
their losing their patience or polite
| ness.
In view Of the publicity and the sup
| posed general knowledge Of the fact
that the battle ship Illinois is built upon
a brick foundation and is about as Sc
curely fastened to the bottom as the
| Inflated Victoria, it is surprising that
any considerable number Of intelligent
visitors to the worlds fair should con-
stantly beset Capt. Taussig with the
inquiry as to when his ship is going to
sail. The captain says scarcely an hour
in the day passes that some gentleman
from Kokomo OIL Oshkosh or st. Louis
does not ask when the ship is going to
move from her moorings and show hel
going capacity. Many affirm they

would have better idea of The battle
ship if they could see her under way
There is another class who have q very
hazy idea of the difference between a
ship of war and q passenger steamer,
and plenty of representatives Of this
class come aboard late in the afternoon,
tired and with empty lunch baskets
and toxic seats wherever they can find
them. They are expecting the ship to
sail. Pretty soon one Of the rigid mar
ines on board approaches and says they
must not obstruct the passageway
but we have our return tickets and
we want to go back to the city, Then
the rigid marine nearly falls over. He
stllffs his white cotton glove in his
mouth, presents arms to q naval dig
nitary who is just then coming on
board, and concludes for a moment to
enjoy the fun. Presently he observes
signs Of Impotence on the part Of the
gentlemen from Kokomo. and, as was
che case the other day, the latter be-
gan to abuse the steamship company
for It's dilatoriness. These worlds
fair people don't keep their promises
nohoW. Here, they said these boats
were going to run ~very ten minutes.
