compelled several days ago to reiinquIsh

disease OF the heart, and his friends express
great anxiety as to the outcome.
Lieut.. Commander Kelley is one Of the
most widely known of the comparatively
younger officers OF the Navy. He has done
considerable literary work. Several Of
his articles on guns and armor. which have e
appeared in the magazines from time to
time during the past dozen years, have
attracted wide attention, not only for the
thorough mannerinwhieh the author treated
his subjects, but also for the facile diction
displa yed.
Mr.. Kelley is nephew OF fthe late Barney
Williams. the eminent comedian and also
by marriage of the late W. j. Florence.
Before serving on the Texas he was execu
tive officer under his present commander
Capt Glass, of the cruiser Cincinnati.
