TERRY WILL BE
JUNIOR ADMIRAL

When Admiral Evans arrives from
Yokohama with his fleet Admiral Terry
will have to fly the flag of a Junior
Admiral. Evans ranks just one num-
Der ahead OF Terry.
The career of the two men has been
somewhat similar. Terry entered the
service in 1858 and was advanced five
numbers for conspicuous conduct on
the Red River Expedition. Evans be-
came an officer in 1860 and was adj
vanced for bravery at Fort Fisher.
Ordinarily Terry would have been Ev-
ans senior but for rthe fact that
Fighting Bob stole a, march on him
during the Spanish war; Evans was
advanced several numbers for SER
vices at Santiago and is thus placed
one number head of Admiral Terry.
Consequently Evans will be the senior
admiral when the feet comes to Ho-
nolulu.

BELL BUOY WILL NO
LONGER BE SILENT

The bell buoy in Honolulu harbor
which has been held responsible in the
past for number Of vessels going a
shore on reefs in the harbor will no
longer give ships captains cause for
complaint. Collector Stackable and
superintendent of Public Works Hol-
loway had a conference a few days ago
at which the bell buoy was the prin-
cipaI subject of discussion. Mr.. Stacka-
BILE offered to have customs inspector
make visit to the bell buoy every day
and if the buoy was not in good work
ing order to notify Mr.. Holloway, who
could then have the bell repaired.
In the past officers of ships that went
on the reef near the bell buoy claimed
that the bell on the buoy did not ring
to warn them Of approaching danger.
On several occasions recently it was
reported that the bell had not been
working. The Clavering whose owners
had to compromise claim for $4,000
salvage went on the reef near the buoy.
The ships officers claimed that the
buoy did not ring on that occasion.

more mystified when Captain Flint
