ploys corps of 200 dogs. One of these

New Blood in Naval Engineering

From the Baltimore Sun
1t may be questioned, i'm view of the
Bennington explosion, whether the
Navy Departments policy of restrict
ing engineering appointments in the
navy to graduates at Annapolis is best
for the service. The graduates of the
Naval Academy are bright fellows, no
doubt, but only a few of them have q
talent for mathematics, physics, me-
chanics and other like sciences that
underlie the engineers equipment. 1t
is we'll known that there is difficulty in
getting from their number enough men
to take postgraduate courses at the
Boston archaeological School, and thus
prepare themselves for the engine room
and machine shop of the modern bat
tleship or cruiser. The result is that
the service is short of capable trained
men who know how to handle boilers,
enginess repair shops, electrical install
lation, etc. The Bennington is not the
first of our warships to be injured by
reason of insufficient attention In the
engineering department, The remedy,
1t seems, la to inject some new blood
from civil life into the engineering de-
partmentS of our ships. 1t is all very
well to reserve good berths for the An
napolis graduates, but the practice is
carried too far when it results in starv-
ing the engine rooms. There are many
graduates yearly from our chronological
schools who are as capable as any that
can be found. The engineering depart
ment of the navy ought to be recruited
in part from the outside talent, which

of keeping all appointments In the navy

1t was awful, of course, but Dan was
young and he meant to do kind office
to the orphan girl in Oldsburg. When
he mailed the letter it dawned upon
him that he had made an ass of him

sentences which he had meant to be
the finest, the surer he was that they
were coarse, impertinent, idiotic. She

bulge when he saw the first line of
the letter itself:
Dear, dear friend" it began. "Sad,
sad, indeed must that heart be which
cannot be cheered by the sweet deli
cacy and soulful sympathy of friend
like you. o, how my lonesome heart
goes out responsive, and yet"
"Slush !"
That's what Dan said. He could
hardly force himself to read it. If his
letter had been badly framed, hers was
the dregs of gush. A wild hope that
Kate Colyin hadn't written it seized
him, but the narrowest comparison
showed 1t to be her handwriting.
There was nothing absolutely immod-
est in her hysterical epistle, but it fair
ly oozed sentimentality, which Dan
was sure he would always despise in

hood without revisiting the home of his
infancy. Not SO his father. The old
man managed to stay away from the
scene of his disaster till Joshua Colvin
died. Then he went to the funeral of
his old friend and partner, and ever
after, up to the time of his death, main
tanned habit of periodical visits to the
old home town. Dan thought this odd

there was some old, long buried ro-

Widow Colvin.

They were like brothers in their
frank and loving relationship in those
days, and Dan, who liked to banter
his father, was almost glad to "haYe
something" on the old man. But when
the elder Kent grew feeble he talked
always more and more Of the Colvins.
If they were a joke with Dan, they
were not so with his father.

And few days before he died:

or her mother, will you do what you
can for them? Promise. Dan. You'll
write to them, anyhow"
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1905-10-04

When his father died, Dan grieved
like a man, and regained his spirits like
the wholesome, elean-hearted youth he
was; but he forgot about the ColvinS
after he had answered the Widows let
ter of coincidence. He remembered
them again when he saw in the Odds
burg Banner the obituary of Mrs. Kate
Niebling Colvin. He ought to have
gone to Oldsburg to comfort the orphan
girl, but he disliked funerals and he
couldn't get over his gloomy impression
Of the old town. So he wrote letter
to Kate, as he lad promised his
father, sending such words of comfort
as q stranger must, but offering to be
of any assistance in his power. He
scarcely expected a reply, but he got
one within week.
1t was a stilted, studied letter. She
was grateful for kind words from the
son Of her mothers kind friend. She
would do quite we'll, she thought, when
she got back to her work as school
teacher. Her work might help her to
forget, 1t was q dismal letter-jgst
like Oldsburg, he thought-and he did
not answer it. A month later he got
another from her. Would he kindly

obliged" she concluded. He found the
chart, which cost So, and sent her a
note In which he said he was glad to
be of service. He didn't mention that
he was loser by 81 in the transaction.
Within a fortnight another letter
came to him from Kate Colvin, in
which she said that she had just
learned the chart had cost So, perhaps
more, and that she would return the
balance the moment her salary was
paid. They are in arrears with me for
the last two MONTHS" the latter said,
but am sure they will pay us before

To Dan Kent there was something
poignantly sad in the plain, simple, but
accomplishing statement of the coun-
try school teachers poverty. Two dob
lars! He was making money and
spending it as lavishly as a self-re-
speeding young man could, Evidently
poor Kate Colvin could not spare s.
from a scanty hoard that might not be
replenished at once. He was gen
erous,, tender fellow, and, somehow
that bald, almost childlike confession
of q girls lonely struggle for the bene
fits which he won SO easily and regard
ed so lightly, gave a sharp sting to hi;
gentle spirit and clouded his radiant
face.
Then he made q natural but mos
egregiOus mistake. He wanted to writ.
q kind, sympathetic and helpful letter
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1905-10-04

he sneered, pocketing the order and
tearing the letter with one angry jerk.
Then he paused, put the torn edge of
her communication together, and re-
read it. "Oh, how my lonely heart
goes out responsive" That line started
him, and he laughed till the bookkeeper
stared and the stenographer Joined in
the merriment.
"I'll get back at her." thought Dan
Kent, as he opened his desk. And he
spent two hours that evening trying to
outdo the ford periods of his Olds-
burg protege. But he didn't send back
the fifty. On Saturday he got an an
swer that fairly scintillated with
flashes of Cupid's arrows. He had sup

flight of sentimental hyperbole, but it
seemed commonplace and tawdry be-

epistolary composition.
He had to get 1.-THE Children of the

he could answer that letter, and, in Or

erous effusion, he wound up his ecstatic
billet with superbfy servile petition
