Sometime ago, Admiral Scliley asked
to be given sea duty, and last week he
was ordered to hold himself in readi-
ness to take commad of the South

ity there has been to comply with his

to his senior First came batch of
stories about the command being an
unimportant one. That is pure bosh.
No flag command is regarded in the
Navy as unimportant, and anyone OF
them may become at any time the
most important. It is always custom
ary before assigning officers of high
rank to any particular duty, to ascer-
tain their wishes, and there isn't any
reason for supposing that the custom
will be deviated from in this case.
Therefore, it may be taken for granted
that if the order is issued assigning
Admiral Schley to the command of
the South Atlantic Squadron, he has
no objection to assuming it.

Washington Fir Versus Steel Masts

The cup defender Columbia, as is
we'll known, has a mast of Washing
ton or Douglas fir, which, however,
was replaced in one of the preliminary
races by steel telescope mast, that
was broken and came near playing
havoc with the new yacht. The ac-
cident, fortunately not proving very
serious, has attracted much attention
both sides of the Atlantic, the
Timber Trade Journal of London,
England, referring to the incident as
follows:
"The misbap which befell the Yam
kee yacht Columbia in her recent trial
with the Defender in New York har-
Dor has again called into notice the
question of whether steel masts are
equal to wooden spars. For years
iron masts have successfully used in
square-rigged vessels on account Of
their cheapness rather than durability,
but for yachts, especially racing ones,
in our opinion they are mistake.
The immense strain of the large
spread of canvas necessary to insure
speed, aud which cannot be reduced
without considerable manipulation,
requires certain pliability in the
sustaining spars of q single-masted
vessel, on which the whole force of the
impress rests. The supports afforded
by the rigging are not enough in
themselves, and we doubt if the sailing
capabilities Of racer would be bene-
flied if they were, of that fixed nature.
Be that as it may, the likelihood Of
a similar catastrophe 10 that which
brought the Yankee yacht to grief in
her trial race the other day is mini
missed by the wooden spar, and mast
makers are not likely to suffer from
the substitution of steel spars in sail
ing craft. Our American friends are
always going in for something sensa-
tional, nor are their efforts in this di-
rection to be condemned We are all
anxious to find something new; and
improving on old methods has been
the cause of the worlds progress; but
the balancing point is sometimes over
stepped, and in yacht spars the scope
for invention is evidently limited
We hope the result of the experiment
which brought such disaster to the
Columbia will be the substitution o.
the steel mast by wooden one, al
everybody is anxious to see the com
petition for the queens cup between
the Shamrock and Columbia satisfac
torily carried out, and the possibility
of a similar mishap during the contes1
would be very lamentable in an inter
| national struggle for q much-covetet
trophy, on which SO much money hal
| been expended on both sides Of th'
Atlantic.

VALUABLE ADDITIONS
TO STANFORD MUSEUM
Art Collection and a Group of Fur
Seals Presented to the Uni
versitY.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY. July g.
The museum at Leland Stanford Jr. Uni
versity has Just received the first INSTALL
ment of the valuable art collection of the
Stanford home at Washington, D. c.,
which is being transferred to the insti-
tuition This collection was gathered
while the late Mr.. Stanford was United
States Senator from California. The first
carload has been unpacked and is now
being arranged under the direction OF
Samuel w. Charles, who is in charge OF
the museum. The greater part of the col
lection consists of paintings, of which
there are forty-seven. The most notable
of these is fine copy by Stearns Of the
are a few historical paintings, some
sketches of the Italian peasantry and a
series of Neapolitan views with which the
Stanford family was so familiar. There
statue Of a Moorish dancer.
In addition to the paintings, there is a
large collection of vases, ancient and
modern, from various European countries
and Japan, and a few pieces of rare stat
uary. some of which date back to the
early Egyptian dynasties.
Another valuable acquisition of the
museum which has just arrived is a series
of fur seals and q panther, presented by
President David Starr Jordan. During
DR. Jordan's last visit to the Pribilof
Islands as Seal Commissioner he collected
a number of skins Of the fur seals for
natural history purposes. On his return
he presented these to various educational
institutions, Stanford, Berkeley, BS)wn,
5Vassar and Minnesota universities being
among the lucky ones The Stanford col
lection consists of a whole family includ-
ing a noble bull seal; bachelor seal, a
cow and two pups, all mounted in lifelike
attitudes The stuffing and mounting
were done by w. +. Nolte, the San Fran.
cisco taxidermist. DR.. Jordan was pre-
. sented with the panther skin during his
recent trip to Yreka, and he gave it to
the university museum.
