Commodore George Dewey, in command
of our Asiatic squadron, is veteran who
needs no new service to give him place
in naval history. He was a lieutenant when
the civil war began having just been grad
uated from Annapolis, and he first came to
the front with the destruction of the old
Mississippi, which had served on stations
all over the globe bore Perry's pennant at
the opening of Japan to the world, and was
enshrned in the affections of many an Of
ficer who had sailed, her. The Mississippi
was destroyed in the river whose name she
bore and her loss was the result of gal
liant action. Captain Smith and his chief
subordinate Lieutenant Dewey, conducted
themselves with fine courage throughout,
and they were the last to leave the ship.
1T is in such trying moment" said Ad-
miral Porter, in commenting on this incl
dent, that men show of what metal they
are made, and in this instance the metal
was of the best Dewey was at both at
tacks on Fort Fisher. and since the war
he has seen distinguished service. In 1851
he was commissioned lieutenant com
mander, and in 1872 he received his commits
sion as commander. In 1884 he was raised
to the rank of captain, and served the
Navy Department in several posts, acquft-
ting himself well i'm all of them. In 1889 he
was commissioned as commodore, and at
that time he was placed in charge Of the
Bureau of Equipment and Recruiting.

BASS-TOW FEUD AGAIN
THE OLD QUARRELS BREAK OUT
WITH HOUSE AND BARN BURNING.
Columbus Preparing for "A Big Recep-
ton to the Grand Army EncamD-
ment Next Month.


Special to the indianapolis Journal.
BEDFORD, Ind, April 27.-There is a
probability of the Bass-Tow feud being re-
vived in this county. 1t was hoped that the
southern part of the county had been for
ever freed from the murderous attack and
frebrand assassins of those two opposing
factions. The death of Henry Tow from
an unknown assassin's hand and the con-
viction and sentence of Curt Bass, his SON
in-law, to the penitentiary it was thought
would put a check to hoStilities forever.
But such seems not to be the case. The
happenings of the past week show that
there is a new outbreak that will probably
result in further murders One night last
week the barn of Mrs. Henry Tow. in Spice
Valley township six miles southwest of this
city, was burned. Mrs. Tow, from fear of
repetition Of these outrages and perhaps
violence to herself, left her home going to
that of her son-in-law, Curt Bass, who lived
about eleven miles east of her. During all
the trouble a. few years ago between Bass
and Mrs. lows husband, Mrs. Tow sided
with Bass, her son-in-Iaw, against her hus-
band, Henry Tow, who was killed She re-
NAMED at the home of her daughter, Mrs.
Bass, and Monday evening returned to her
own home, Bass and his wife accompany
ing her, where they intended to remain for
a rev days in order TO protect her should
any further outbreaks occur. Tuesday Bass
learned that his own home had been de-
stroyed by fire the night after he left His
residence and everything he had inside was
a total loss. This is looked upon by dis
interested parties as a signal for the renew
al OF the old grudge. Since young Bass
sentence expired he has been leading a life
that was gratifying to his friends, working
hard, with the promise of becoming a good
and useful citizen

special to the Indianapolis Journal
COLUMBUS, Ind, April 27.-The execu-
tive board for the state encampment of the
tons has raised and appropriated $3.50 for
the general entertainment of it's guests from
May II to May 90 OF this amount 81 500 has
been set apart for donations. In that line
no town which has had the enca mpment has
come up to what Columbus proposes. The
scale of the preparations may be understood
when 1t is stated that Richmond made the
show it did with aA expenditure of $2,9S0
while Munce and South Bend expended
about $500 each. This large sum of money
has been subscribed in comparatively small
amounts by citizens generally A number
of citizens, among whom ARE Chairman +.

deVotlng a large part of their, time to per-
fsctfng the arrangements The public
schools will take a prominent part the day
of the parade. Twelve hundred of the pupils

airs. new feature will be a lecture by
Henry Watterson on Lincoln on Thursday
evening. One of the novelties of the Column

floating apparently unSustained, half a mile
high. These flags will be held in midair by

small wires which will be paid out by. a

posed line of march on Tuesday and APP
proved it. IT is not over mile and is on
