DESIGNS OUR CRUISERS.
Philip Hichborn, Chief Constructor
Of the Nations Navy.
The Work He Has Already Accomplished
Entities Him to the Thanks of Every
Patriotic Citizen of the
United States.

The American people are proud Of
their warships and of the men who con-
struct, build and man them, writes the
Washington correspondent of the
Brooklyn Eagle. When the emperor of
Germany complimented our vessels at
Kiel the other day the heart of every
patriotic citizen of this country, wheth-
er he resided on the seaboard or in the
prairie cities of the far west, thrilled
with pride and satisfaction.
AS the head of that bureau whence
originated the designs for the vessels
of the white squadron the life, aims
and opinions of Philip Hichborn, chief
constructor of the United States navy,
must be of interest to all of us. In the
the people of the United States like
unpretentious, sincere and democratic
in his habits, he represents in his per-
son the best attributes of American cit
izenship.
Constructor Hichborn was born at
Charlestown, Mass, March 4, 1889, grad
uated from Boston high school in 1855
and was indentured to the government
at sixteen. By the direction of the
then secretary of the navy, Isaac Tou-
sey, he was especially instructed in the
theoretical work of ship designs and
calculations. He entered the service
as assistant naval constructor in 1869,
and six years later, after competitive
examination, he received his commits
sion as naval constructor. In July,
1898, Constructor Hichborn assumed his
present duties as head of the construc-
ton bureau and chief designer of our
war vessels. For the better part of
two years succeeding his appointment
he was surrounded by an unsettled at
mosphere, the heritage of the bureau
as an Office. This, however, he has
succeeded in clearing up.
To appreciate the work he has &C
complished in SO short a time it is only
necessary to remember that warship,

ing several cheap concerns have
started factories here with names
similar to that of the Old Reliable
Columbus Buggy company's, in or
der to furnish dealers with a cheap
article to mislead the public,
the Columbus Buggy company,
say they are selling Woodward &
Briggs more this year than they
ever sold in San Antonio before,
for 1t seems that San Antonio peo-
pie know and appreskate the differ
ence in good article and poor
one, and the best can always be
found with Woodward & Briggs.

beach is one OF the finest on the
coast. Upon this peninsula there
is the largest resort.hotel in the
world known as the "Hotel del
Coronado" The structure is simp-
ly immense and built in the
style OF the renaissance. | under
stand that the famous sugar king
Claus Spreckles is its chief owner,
and it is managed by E. s. Bah
cock. Spreckles, in fact, seems to
make that resort his headquarters
and his yacht was pointed out to
me, anchored in the bay. A
few years ago the peninsula was
apparently dry spot except dur
ing the winter rains, but now it is
a veritable paradise. The street
one mile long, leading to the hotel,
is lined with palms, and the park,
covering many acres, is a galaxy
of beauty. Semi-tropical flowers
revel in the sunshine, and crowds
OF pleasure-seekers enjoy the ocean
breeze mingled with the fragrance
from 80 many hectares. The city
in its architecture and general
layout is quite like any other
American city of the same sizie I;
the steets being in good condition,
partly owing to the nature OF the
soil, and the main streets have
asphaltum pavement. The city
government seems fair. A few
historic places are about the town,
among which there are two mis-
sions, an old fort, of which but a
few dobe's remain. Uncle Sam has
a'small company stationed here,
nothing to be compared with our
fine post at San Antonio, however.
At the entrance to the harbor
there is lighthouse and the gov
eminent is building jetties similar
to those at Galveston. L have not

with its great weight and modern APP
pliances, is the most difficult thing in
the world to construct, particularly
when there is SO much red tape, as
there always is in government work,
connected with it.
Congress appropriates and designates
in general terms the type, displace-
ment, cost and probable speed of the
crafts; and on the bureau of construc-
ton falls the burden of meeting those
exactions successfully. The approx
mate speed, size, number of guns being
determined, the lines or underwater
form settled, series of complex COM
putations establishes the amount of
power necessary to drive the vessel
through the water at the desired speed.
The weight OF boilers, engines and
appurtenances necessary to develop
that speed being found, each contrib
utive bureau in turn is required to
state Just what proportion of the whole
ship is needed within its particular
province. The result is a rough draft
of the proposed ship, which the bureau
of construction begins to modify, ma
ture and develop along those lines
where a margin of unassigned weight
admits. More coal room, thicker armor,
larger or more numerous guns and
possibly a greater speed results. As
regards strength, seaworthiness and
stability the chief constructor must
hold himself responsible. This single
ness of responsibility and uniform
adherence to the design so formulated
is good thing.
England and France, whom we fol-
low in many things connected with the
construction of our ships, have been
taught a wholesome and expensive les
son in that no number of men of equal
authority of varying experience and
purpose can design successful ship of
war; particularly if their efforts be
narrowed down to the aggrandizement
of their own department, oblivious to
the advantages of compromise.
Chief Constructor Philip Hichborn
considers our present navy, commits
stoned and constructing, merely as
nucleus of service many times great
HhlSh buS
cial interests of the country, as well as
