A contemporary. referring to the re-
naming OF the cruiser Amazonas, re-
Gently purchased from Bs,zil, and Civ
ing her the name OF New Orleans, says
that Secretary Long should have. per-
mftted the old name to stand out OF
courtesy to the country that sold us the
ship in time OF need This Is all right as
to sentiment. and doubtless few would
have objected. but the secretary was
obliged TO select an American name to
comply with the regulations OF the navy,
which require the names OF cruisers to
be for cities OF the United States. Bat
tleships are named, under the same reg
ulation, for states. and torpedo boats are
named for, naval commanders who have
won distinction in the service OF this
country. The only exception Is among
the batticships, the vessel being the

to take the place Of the historic Kcar-
sarge.

WHERE is GRAYP
A Santa Barbara Contractor Contracts
a Jag and Gets Lost

Daniel H. Gray, Santa Barbara con-
tractor, left his home last Friday, osten-
sibly to transact some business in this
city, but in reality to go on a bowling
spree AS he failed to communicate with
his wife, she became alarmed and came
on to Los Angeles herself to investigate.
When Gray left home he had $3.50 upon
his person and when he began to drink
he had no hesitancy in displaying his
Wad.
Mrs. Gray arrived yesterday and,
knowing her husbands failing, made
inquiries which located him at several
saloons during the early part of the
week. but all trace of him was lost after
Monday night, when he was seen at a
Spring street saloon in an intoxicated
condition, at about II o'clock.
SO far she has been unable to learn
where her husband meandered to when
he left that resort, and the poor woman
is racked by the Gear that he has met
with foul play. She has communicated
with the sheriff and police officers who
will try to discover the Whereabouts of
the festive Gray.
The missing man is 42 years of age, is
of medium height, weighs 1856 pounds and
wore a sandy moustache and a gray
suit of clothes when he left Santa Bar
bara.
