HoBsoN's YOUNG FRIEND

Roland Sawyer Gielow, a young "Jackey'
of sixteen, worshipped Lieutenant Hobson
and made a hero of him long years before
the Merrimac caused him to be world
famous.
Young Gielow is the son of Mrs Henry j.
Gielow, the dramatic reader who comes
from Greensboro, Ala, where her family
and lieutenant Hobson's family have been
friends for several generations.
When Hobson returned from Cuba he
went at once to visit his young friend on
the New Hampshire, and was so pleased
with his pluck in volunteering that he re-
quested Secretary Long to allow the boy
to accompany him back to Cuba. Roland
Gielow was, accordingly, detailed to go on
government pay to act as secretary to the
brave constructor.

Mrs C. B. Spencer, the president of the
Alabama w. c. T. u, talked most inter-
estingly upon the subject in which she is
so greatly interested.
For an explanation" she said, 'of the
protest In yesterdays papers concerning
the closing of saloons on the Sabbath, one
need look no further than the motto of the
Woman's Christian Temperance Union:
For God and Home and Native Land
IA few years ago. she continued, "dur-
ing the discussion in the United States
senate on the Sabbath closing of the
Worlds fair a Pennsylvania senator moved
that the appropriation of IS 900 be con-
ditioned on Sabbath closing, and In de-
Tense of his motion sent to the clerk what
he was pleased to call an old law book
marking the passage he wished to have
read. AS the clerk read from the Bible
the opening words of the fourth command
ment Remember the Sabbath day and
keep it holy the senate listened in rev.
erent silence Instinctively the senate and
the nation recognized Gods law as para
mount. ., at -
1.-THE most dangerous thing for any city
because 1t includes so many crimes-is the
spirit of lawlessness. By it our homes
are endangered constantly, and though
white ribbon women wear the badge of
peace, they cannot be Indifferent to any
moral issue; they may not seem a great
power in the community. But they will
not be false to conviction, though some be
antagonized. but will plead the right of
home protection, first, last and always.
There is little to hope from municipal
ity that cares less TO clean the street of
moral than physical filth.
Reforms that were once considered i'm
possible regarding enforcement of laws
have been thoroughly tested and right has
made might in some of the largest cities
of this country, notably the case of the
Louisiana lottery in New Orleans, and the
defeat of political ''rings' in many places.
Roosevelt" said Mrs. Spencer. "cheer-
ing his gallant, intrepid Rough Riders up
the barren slopes of San Juan is no more
striking picture of courage and fearless
than when he faced corruption and wicked
ness in high places as chief police COM
missioner in New York city,-and proved
that men are greater than measures by
bringing to pass that which the state leg
isature did not see its way clear to do"

sincerely regret her departure, and hope

THE VULCAN A SUCCESS.
IL Has Proved "a Valuable Repair shop
for the Fleet.

New York, Aug. S.-A special TO the
Tribune from Washington says: The re-
pair ship Vulcan is one of the naval
successes of the existing war. That so
wholly novel an adjunct to a modern
fleet should prove her worth at once
n so signally in the intricate science
of naval conflict is strong evidence not
only of the need which she has filled,
but of the vigilance and foresight Of
the engineer-in-chief of the navy with
whom her design originated and under
whose direction her plant has been in
stalled. In preparing for this exigency,
the navy, at the outset of the war, pur-
chased the steamer Chatham, renamed
her Vulcan and fitted her out at the
Boston navy yard. Ii may here be not
ed that the Vulcan is not the first repair
ship which the engineer-in-chief has
projected. That the Vulcan has fulfilled
the promise of her originator is shown
by the fact that for further service
our ships are not coming home except
to be docked. The great feet of Samp-
son lies in the land-locked Cuban mar
Dor with the Vulcan close at hand, pre-
pared in every essential way for the
duty which the navy department may
prescribe and this after many Of these
vessels had been months away from the
northern machine shop and nearly a
year from a dock. The character of the
work now being done by the repair shop
is shown to some extent In a letter from
one of her officers who, writing from
guantanamo bay, says in regard to this
vessel and it's utility:
Il can only say that we are busy
night and day. Our brass furnace is
going every day. there having been un-
expected calls for brass castings of all
kinds and sizes. 1t seemed tina every
vessel in the fleet-colliers, transports,
supply and warships-has either
a winch, a blower engine or a dynamo
broken down. New eccentric straps
and rods galore are required, with new
b~rasses, gun castings, etc. We have
supplied also an enormous supply of
stores TO the different ships.
we are busy all the time and there
is no vessel in the fleet but has had
something Ion to il. The torpedo
boats, small yachts and tugs required
the most work. 1t Will be seen from
this how the Vulcan fits one Of the
most imperative needs of modern war,
the maintenance of the fleet in being
SO that its massive warriors shall be,
as the originator said long ago. fit to lie
in a inc to be battleships after long
service as well as before. The problem
Of the repair ship is one of many which
the navy department has had to solve
in the e~xigencies Of war after a gener-
alton of peace. The department and the
nation are to be congratulated hi in
meeting these conditions they can COM
mand the services Of such men as the
engineer-in-chief Of the navy"

mittee, charged with the duties of the

BUSINESS Is DULL.
Everlasting Revolution Causes Trouble in
Central America.

~
San Francisco. Aug. S.-The Pacific
Mail steamship City of Panama arrived
to-day direct from La Libertad with a
cargo consisting principally of coffee. Ac-
cording to the member of the crew of
the vessel business in Central America is
exceedingly dull. Gold is very scarce and
the depreciation of the value of silver
has greatly reduced the wealth of the
population. Everything is purchased out
side and nothing to speak of is manu-
featured. Labor is paid in silver, but the
wages remain the same as when silver
was almost at a par with gold.
The everlasting revolution is causing
a great deal of trouble. as capital is
gradually being driven from the field, and
ii might easily thrive were the capitalists
afforded protection of property and stabil-
ity of values. However. Il is charged that
ambitious adventurers and malcontent>
are responsible for a good many stories
of revolutions that never take place.
Morales. in the matter of Guatemalan af-
fairs, is not looked upon as a serious
menace to the well being of the present
government.
