The Pioneers.

The territorial pioneers of Mime
sofa must have been strong souled,
cheerful, lusty men and women if the
humor and good cheer which 500 of the
members of the association showed at
the Log Cabin at the state fair grounds
can be taken as a measure of their
spirit. The weather was quite against
them, but the meeting has never been
SO large and the day has never passed
off with so much satisfaction to every
one concerned as did the annual meet
ing of 1901.
The afternoon was given over to
jollity and merry-making. Dancing
was feature Of the afternoon, not by
the young people assembled but by
the real pioneers
The officers elected for the coming
year are: President, John S. Pillsbury,
Minneapolis: first vice president, E. w.
Durant, Saltwater; second vice presi-
dent, William Pitt Murray, st. Paul;
secretary, M. G. O'Connor, st. Paul.

CROWDS ATTEND LAUNCHING.
Attendance of President Adds to In
terest of the Occasion


San Francisco, May 2O-W When it be-
came generally known Saturday
morning, that the president was to at
tend the launching of the battleship
Ohio most of the population of San
Francisco and vicinity seemed to be
moving towards the Union iron works.
Although the time for the launching
was set for 1926 p. m. the people COM
menced to gather about the iron
works many hours before. Only few
were allowed to enter the inclosure
surrounding the ways, but thousands
of spectators clustered the bluffs over
looking the works. On the bay shore
on the farther side from the ship, of
the cove into which the Ohio glided,
stands had been erected and they were
black with people at an early hour.
On the bay the scene was most ami
mated. Every pleasure craft and
steamer, sail boat and row boat that
could be pressed into service, lowered
around the ship, and these were kept
back with difficulty by the patrol of
tugs. 1t was estimated that fully So
900 people saw the big battleship
plunge into the water

Francisco.

was construed by some Of the watch
ers on the outside to indicate a
change for the worse, but there were
no later and substantiating develop
ments to warrant the acceptance of
this theory. No one entered or left
the house after 11:15 O'clock, at
which hour Mr.. G. A. Moore, Of New
York, one of the presidents party,
left the house afer an hour spent
with the president.
At 8:45 a. m. Secretary Cortelyou
gave out the following statement:
"Drs. Hirschefelder, Gibbons and Cush-
ing met DR.. Rixey a eight a. M, and found
Mrs McKinley's condition decidedly i'm
proved since last evening"
Secretary of the Interior Hitchcock
stated Saturday morning that he
now considers Mrs. Mckinley out OF
danger.
Saturday morning, when it was
announced that President Mckinley
would attend the launching of the
Ohio, the mounted guard was seen
to draw up in front of the house
preparatory to his departure to the
Union iron works, there was feel
ing of great relief. The presidents
actions seemed to give more assur-
ance of Mrs. McKinley's improve
ment in health than any statement
from the doctors could have done.
NO Noisy Demonstration.
When the president left the Scott
house at $40, he walked briskly
down the stairs to his carriage. He
appeared to be in good spirits and
the careworn expression of his face.
which had been noticeable for the
past few days, had disappeared.
There was every temptation for the
crowd that waited around the pres
ident's temporary residence to cheer
when they saw the head of the ma
ton come out, but for fear of dis
turbing Mrs. Mckinley there were no
, noisy demonstrations; merely a re-
spectful lifting of hats as the pres
ident passed by.
In the carriage with him were

was presented with a beautiful
souvenir of the occasion which the
men had prepared for him as a gift.
The president made a few remarks,
but there was no other experimenting.
At the launching Miss Barker, niece
Of Mrs. Mckinley, pressed the button
which released the Ohio from it's
berth on shore and started the
vessel for the bar. AS the ship
|glided down the ways Miss Helen
Deshler smashed the bottle of
champagne which hung from its
bow and conferred upon the great
fighting machine the name which it is
hereafter to bear in the American
navy. Immediately after the launch
ing President Mckinley returned to
the side Of his suffering wife.
Picturesque Scene.
The scene on the bay during the
launching was picturesque in the ex-
IRENE. The. Slocum was gaily dec
grated and flew the presidents flag.
All the war vessels IN the harbor par
tlcipated in the naval parade, under
the escort of Rear Admiral Silas
Casey. The admiral's flagship, Wis
consin, was in the lead, with the Iowa
close behind. Then in order came the
cruisers Philadelphia and Adams, the
torpedo boat Farragut and the Nc
5Cullough. All the vessels of war were
decorated and the naval showing was
the most formidable ever seen on the
bay.
The Ohio Party.
The Ohio party boarded the steam
er Resolute and the United States
steamer Mcdowell conveyed Gen.
Shafter and his officers of the post
and their ladies to the scene of the
festivities. Barges without number,
loaded to their utmost capacity, We're
towed down the. bay by powerful
tugs, and in and out of the process
sion steamed the government tugs
Gov. Markham and Gov. Irwin, bear
ing Gov. Gage and his staff and other
state officers.
Many pleasure craft reinforced the
showing made by the vessels OF the
navy. The bay in the vicinity Of the
Union iron works was we'll policed
by the harbor commissioners. The
inside position was occupied by the
warships, the Slocum and the tug

Summer School For Teachers.

There is a growing demand through
out the State for teachers who are up
to-date. who can teach Physical Gull
ture, drawing, nature studies and kindred
branches. In fact, who have had some
special training to fl; them for the re-
sponsible and noble profession which
they have chosen. The time has come
when teachers must have some practical
knowledge of the subjects mentioned
above, or fall behind in the race for sue
cess. Realizing the truth OF the fore
going statements, and being conscious OF
the fact that many teachers have not
had the advantage of college educa-
ton. the Agricultural College has de-
termined to supply this want by organlr-
ing the Maryland Summer School. The
Sammer School has been organized solely
for the benefit oil the teachers OF Mary
land. and the cost of board and tuition
has been placed at such figure as will
simply detray incidental expenses, with
out any compensation whatever 10 the

The following unique lettering on the

A NEW ENGINEER CORPS.
Its Formation Is Advocated By High Rank
ing Naval Officers.

The foundation OF a new corps OF naval
engineers is believed 10 be in contempla-
ton. Examinations are now in progress
at all naval stations tor appointments OF
enlisted machinists to the rank of war
rant machinists. These places have com
missioned rank and carry a salary OF
81, 200. with gradual increase for service.
Fifty such officers are to be appointed
and for these places there are two hum
dred applicants.
Two-thirds otthe applicants came from
the Asiatic feet and the remainder are
from almost every ship in commission
and every shore station. The chance
for the enlisted man TO secure these prizes
with every possibility that out OF them
will grow in few years new engineer
corps with all the privileges and authority
given Naval Academy graduates, has
been recognized in the active competition
that has followed. Admiral Melville,
who was one OF the foremost advocates
OF merging the engineers and line. is
now one OF the strongest believers that n
new engineer corps will be ultimately
formed,
Advices from abroad received by the
Navy Department show that the British
navy is now in the throes OF the engineer
problem and that Parliament will prob
ably grant their petition this spring. The
British engineers number 500. and OF
this number there are but 10 with the
rank of captain. They now ask for
more rank and a wider distribution; to
have actual rank, but still retain the
identity OF engineers, and TO have full
control OF the engineers department OF
warships. They also want TO be regard
ed as combatants as we'll as engineers.
They ask also for a large increase OF
their corps.

PAID FOR THEIR FUN.
A Party Of Seamen Get Into Trouble
Court Martialed And Punished.

Boatswain Edwin J. Norcutt and a
party of seamen in his charge recently
lett Newport for this city, where they
were to report to one of the cadet train
ing ships, Norcutt had an hour or TWO
at his disposal SO he took his crew down
town in Baltimore, where they literally
refreshed themselves and incidentally. so
the boatswain says, partook of the sue
culent Chesapeake bay crab.
Then they started on the Pennsylvania
railroad for Annapolis. On the way the
whole crew became hilarious and ran
amuck in the train, while the boatswain
hung his head out OF window oblivious
to all going on around him. To prolong
the merriment one sailor pulled the bell
cord and brought the train to sudden
stop. The CapeTs were reported to the
Navy Department and Boatswain Nor
cutt and the seaman who stopped the
train were court-martialed.
The defense of the boatswain was that
the crabs had made him i'll and he could
not control his men. The seaman who
had been accused OF stopping the train
said he was not accustomed to the motion
of cars and that as he rose in his seat the
car lurched and he seized the bell rope
in his efforts to steady himself The
court held that seamen who have no
"sea legs" should not travel on railroad
cars. and that the Jackie, who was an
old-timer, should not be lifted off OF his
pins by the simple motion OF a car on
level country.
1t is held further that the conduct Of
both the sailor and boatswain reflected
seriously on the honor OF the navy, and
for all this the boatswain is suspended
tor three months and the sailor for two,
while the rest of the party escaped pun
ishment.
