THE BATTLESHIP "

named the big naval baby. When
Miss Drake christened the ship, her
father stood beside her and near at
hand were the members of his staff and
party Of other distinguished Iowans.
Secretary Herbert Was There.
Secretary of the Navy Herbert was
there with prominent attaches OF his
Office, and SO were the chiefs of the diff
ferent naval bureaus in Washington.
and members of the house and senate
committee on naval affairs. Governor
Hastings represented Pennsylvania,
and Mayor Warwick, Philadelphia. A
mighty horde Of citizens saw the event.
It was shortly after l o'clock when the
last tie piece holding the monster to the
ways was knocked off, and the tremend-
Gus hull gave a preliminary quiver.
The commanding figure of Miss Drake,
standing on a little raised platform,
was drawn up. Under Henry Cramps
direction, she rested one shoulder
against the hull, and then as it begun
to glide away, she swung her right arm
and smashed the bottle square on the
vessels nose, at the same t me saying:
II christen thee Iowa"
= But nobody heard her, because at
that moment the factories and steam
boats let loose their ear-splitting whis-
ties and the multitude gave rent to it's
frenzied roar Of enthusiasm. And the
racket kept up until the Iowa had
gracefully courtesied to the tribute IN
midair, swung around and cast anchor.
Everybody on the bow platform shook
hands with everybody. else there, and
then went into the long mould left for
luncheon and more Fluctuations.
There was a long list of Iowa visitors
present, while from Washington cab
met officers, senators, representatives.
and their famil .es numbered hundreds.

We all know that the most danger
Gus fortune for the young is what Is
called good fortune. An undiscl-
plined boy is not likely to become a
respected man. There is nothing so
nearly fatal as to allowa child to have
his own wayin all things. The rod
may not be used, butit must be Ia
sight, and enforced obedience is the
popularity OF early training. lndecd,
the very verb to train means II stern
check to wanton impulse, and the
great responsibility d parents Is to
suppress scertain tenlencies and en-
courage othcrs. The wisdom OF faith
er and mother Is the providence OF
the child, and II the child fails to un-
derstand 1t, and grows rebellious
rather than submissive, or doubts the
love which is sometimes stern and In

of His Kingdom.

WASHINGTON, Oct 5.-Another
millionaire visitor from the fowery
kingdom, Yen Men, an imperial COM
missioner, arrived in Washington yes
terday. HIS visit here does not bring
him into contact with the state depart
ment, but he comes to make a semi
official inquiry into the commerce and
modern business methods of the United
States to be used for the benefit of
Chinese industries.
One of the most important features
of his mission is to get a report for the
emperor of China upon the condition of
the better class of his countrymen in
the United States. Most of them are
engaged in business, many conducting
branch houses of firms located in China
The commissioner will consult with
these American-Chinese merchants

between the two countries He will re-
main in the country several months,
during which he will visit the principal
ties His longest stay will be at San
Francisco, as the field for his spe al
work is greatest there He will visit
England after leaving this country, and
return to his native land by way of
India.
