Promptly at 9:05 the brief ceremonies
began. This consisted Of the presenta-
ton to the Wisconsin of her colors,
which were received by Commodore
Watson.
About the 26th of October Mrs. NJ. H.
Mayberry. teacher of sewing connected
with the manual training department
of the Irving NJ. Scott School, suggest
ed that the children under her charge
make a set of colors for the battleship
Wisconsin. Her patriotic sentiments
were enthusiastically seconded by the
principal, Miss NJ. M. Murphy. and her
entire corps of assistants.
This work of love and patriotism was
begun on the 26th OF October of the
present year, 1898.
The flag and Union Jack are made in
accordance with the specifications and
rules of the Navy Department of the
United States Government. The flag is
q feet long by IA feet wide The Union
Jack is 10 feet 10 inches by feet 9

yards of bunting were used in the con-
struction of these colors.

where they have seen the mighty form
of the Wisconsin rising, as it were, out
of the sea The parents of many Of
them welded the hammers that sang
out the strokes that told of the mighty
work their strong and sinewy arms
have done for the nation.
The furled flag was suspended from
the bowsprit. Miss Margaret Duff,
Miss Jeanette Draper and Master
Frank Dixon, all pupils of the Irving
Scott School, held the cords that were
to release the colors. These pupils had
won this honor by their meritorious
work In presenting the colors Miss
Duff addressed Commodore Watson.
She said:
Hon. Commodore Watson, Repre-
sentatives of the Army and Navy, Hon.
Irving Nj. Scott and friends:
THE high honor of presenting the
colors to the great battleship Wiscon-
sin has been accorded to me by the
teachers and pupils of the Irving Scott
School.
THE high honor conferred is en-
hanced by the fact that this Is the only
occasion when pupils of our public
schools have made a flag with their
own little hands. gladdened by the

of vantage in the yards was quickly
seized upon by the crowd. : The small
boy climbed everything in sight and
balanced himself on its topmost pin
nacle at the risk of life and limb. The
frame work of the slip was black with
venturesome men and boys.
The police kept the crowd from the
stand on which was to take place the
ceremonies. This was gayly bedecked
with patriotic bunting. Shortly before
the arrival of the guests of honor the
Marine band from the receiving ship
Independence arrived and also a squad
of sailors and marines from the Wheel
ing. These were drawn up by their
officers in two lines on either side of the
Wisconsin's Prov to keep back the
crowd

tug Millen Griffith arrived with the
Wisconsin contingent and specially in
vited guests on board They were es-
corted TO the stand by Mr.. Scott.
First came Miss Elizabeth Stephen
son, with Senator ]. L. Mitchell The
fair sponsor wore a dream of a gown
a Partisan creation made especially for
the occasion. The skirt was of cadet
blue broadcloth. The shirt waist was
pink silk trimmed with duchesse lace,
while the jacket was of the same mate
rial as the skirt, trimmed with blue
satin facing The exquisite impression
of the gown was heightened in its ef-
feet by the high sable collar and the
black velvet hat, from which waved
graceful white and black plumes. Next
came Governor elect Gage and Mrs.
Gage, with their little daughter Lu-
ellie. She was perfect wonder of
childish beauty in a fluffy little dress Of
some soft blue material, while from un-
der her big white hat her wealth Of
golden curls fell gracefully over her
shoulders.
Following came Lieutenant Governor
Emil Bench of Wisconsin, with the fol-
lowing distinguished members of the
party from his State, among whom was

Yachts and Excursion Steamers
Gaily Bedeeked Carry Throngs
to the Launching.

The launching was witnessed from
afar by thousands Of spectators. The
shore line was sharply defined by
them, while the adjoining hillsides were
also the vantage point from which
great throngs viewed the moving spec
tacIe. Every class of seagoing craft
was represented in the bay about the
great shipbuilding yard, from which so
many notable fighting machines have
been sent forth to do battle under Old
Glory.
Anchored just off the iron works was
a jaunty yacht, the white sides and gay
bunting of which showed out in strong
relief against the dull, leaden sky. The
early morning was cold and cheerless,
and those viewing the launching from
the bay were all closely mutfied in furs
and overcoats.
The pleasure boats and those carry
ing exeursionists were early on the
scene, forming solid semi-circie about
the course over which the battieship
was 10 glide after leaving the ways on
which she was built. In addition TO the
Government boats in the vicinity all
the tugs and available steamers were
pressed into service. Dainty racing
skiffs scraped noses with stout tugs,
while launches, both steam and gaso-
line, fitted about lending life and ac-
ton 10 the color Scheme. The most
novel of all the craft was bicycle boat
built catamaran fashion and propelled
by two men,
There was but little delay. So soon
as the tide served and the launching
party were in their allotted places the
signal was given and the huge hulk
began to move. To the spectators on
the water this movement was scarcely
perceptible at first. Soon a shout went
up, only TO be swallowed in the Shrek
ing Of steam whistles, punctuated by
the booming of cannon. The guns OF
the Italian cruiser Etna and the Mari
eta belched forth a salute as q well
come to the latest of Uncle Sans fight
ing machines.
The Wisconsin went down into the
sunless sea as gracefully as swan.
She gained impetus as she advanced
and cut through the water like racing
yacht Usually the large boats cast up
a great wave, which tosses the pleasure
craft about and then breaks high on
the shore, dampening the enthusiasm
of the more venturesome spectators.
