THE ADMIEAL's CAREER.
He Gave Promise Early in Life of Be-
coming a Hero.

He Gave Promise Early in Life of Be-
coming a Hero.
George Dewey is a veteran among the
naval officers of the United States He re-
ceived his first experience under Admiral
Farragut, and aboard the old steam sloop
Mississippi, to which he was assigned for
duty April 10, 1861, eight days before Fort
Sumter was fired upon.
He is now 81 years old and native Of
Vermont. He was appointed to the naval
academy from that state in September, 1857.
When he was graduated four years later he
was sent aboard the steam frigate Wabash,
and went on a cruise in the Mediterranean.
He received his commission as lieutenant
when he was assigned to duty on the Mis-
sissippi, which joined the West Gulf squad
dren. When Farraguts fleet forced an en-
trance to the Mississippi Lieut.. Dewey was
in the thickest of the fray upon the old steam
sloop.
The most spirited fight in which the Mis-
sissippi ever took part occurred in March,
1863, when the fleet tried to pass by the con-
federate batteries at Port Hudson. Some
of the ships managed to pass up to the uar-
row part of the channel, where they were
fired upon by the shore batteries being
forced to retreat But the Mississippi did
not attempt to get up into the channel. 1t

smoke OF pattle- Inc sIoop 1ost It's bearings
and ran ashore. Before its officers were
aware of it it had struck directly under the
guns of battery which was one of abe
strongest of the Notifications. 1t was only
a brief breathing spell before 250 shots
struck the Mississippi and riddled it from
end to end. The obscurity made it possible
for its crew to take to their boats after set
ting it on fire.
Dewey got his first command in 1870, when
he performed. special service with the Mar
ragansett. He made surveys of the Pacific
coast until 1876, when he became light
house inspector, afterwards being the sec

DEWEY TRIUMPHAL ARCH.
The Grandest Piece OF Art Work Ever
COnceiXed In America

The Grandest Piece OF Art Work Ever
Conceived in America.
The contribution of the National ScuIp-
! ture society TO the Dewey celebration is the
most notable of all. 1t will consist of an
| arch and colonnade to be erected at Madison
square, free of cost, although the profess
sional services of the artists engaged in
the work represent an equivalent of from
$4,000 to 100000.
The arcn is to be supplemented by line
of columns, enriched with sculptures. The
arch itself Is similar in general design to the
great Roman memorial arches, particularly
, tie arcn of Titus. It's four great piers will
have bas-relief decorations. and at their
bases are to be large allegoricel groups, per-
sonifying Patriotism, War, The Return and
Peace. The finals of the columns, on either
side of the categorical groups mentioned, are
to be portrait figures, from eight to twelve
feet high, of famous American admirals and
naval officers. The committee of the ScuIp-
ture society wrote to Secretary of Navy
Long to suggest the names of eight heroes
who he thought would most fstingly rep
resent the navy. In reply he suggested John
Paul Jones, representing the war of the rev
olut;on; Decatur, HUI, Perry and Mac
Donough, representing the war Of 1912, and
Farragrt, Porter and Gushing, representing
the civil war.
The spandreIs over the main entrance, on
the north and south sides, are to have has
reliefs synbolizing the Atlantic and Pacific
oceans on one side and the North and East
rivers on the other, thus" to quote from
the committees report, ito emphasize New
York's position as the most important COM
mercial city of the country" The two key
stones of the arch are to be surmounted by
great American eagles, which will probably
be gilded.
Above the wings of the eagles shall, it is
suggested, be placed inscriptions, TO be
chosen by the celebration committee, IN rec
ignition of the services of Admiral Dewey.
a novel feature of the design is a quadriga
of sea horses, drawing ship, surrounding
the apex of the arch. At the prov of this
ship stands figure, symbolizirg Triumphal
Victory, with outstretched wings. This is
one of the most striking portions of the en-
tire structure.
The large surfaces above the minor arches
IN the west and east sides of the edince are
to be covered with designs in high relief, the
subjects of which have not yet been definite
ly chosen, but for which al.egories of The
Protection of Cur Country" and The Ad-
yaneement OF Civilization" are suggested.
As for the large sculptured groups TO be
placed at either end Of the colonnade, four

during the whole of the battle. As the Con-
cord swung past Manila it fired two shells at
the luuette battery. These were the only
shots fired toward the city. Our squadron
kept moving, the speed increased to eight
knots, to the Spanish feet at Cavite, six
miles distant. When the Olympia reached
a point about [, 800 yards from the Spanish
position it opened with its forward turret
guns, the only guns which could be brought
to bear.
"The Olympia kept up this fire until q
point was reached where our squadron could
turn and pass parallel to the Spaniards, at
distance of about 5000 yards. The Olympia
was some 20 minutes under fire from the
lunette battery, the feet at CaYite, and the
batteries on Sangley Point before it reached
position from which its fire could certainly
be effective.
CAS- the Olympia turned to run parallel to
the Spaniards at a distance of about 5000
yards (nearly two miles from the enemy
the Baltimore, following in its wake, opened
with its forward eight-inch guns, and the
ships following opened as tLey reached the
same point and could bring their guns to
bear.
'"The Raleigh was about 80 minutes under
fire before it could fire in return. Each of
the vessels of our squadron opened with all
guns, following the example of the Olympia,
as Lney came INTO poelClon TO 90 SO.
eve swept by the Spanish feet, heading
to the westward, until we passed them
and exchanged fire with the batteries on
Sangley Point, turning in succession, with
our heads to the northward, to avoid run
ming on the shoal in front of the latter bat
teries.
eve then steamed across the front of the
Spanish feet, heading eastward, turned with
our heads to the southwark, and repeated
the first maneuver of going to the westward,
passing five times in front of the Spaniards,
three times heading to the west and twice to
the east, at each turn gradually edging near
er to the Spanish vessels. On the last run
the Raleigh fired with its guns elevated to
l,400 yards, at which distance all of the sec
ondary battery was also brought into play.
During the second run to the westward
two explosions took place in the water about
500 yards to the northward of the Spanish
fleet. These explosions were supposed by all
hands, from the general appearance of them,
to be powerful mines
During the second run to the westward
the Spanish flagship, Reina Cristina, got
under way and steamed about the anchor
