SATURDAY EVENING. JULY %. 1905.

THE EXPLOSION of one OF the boilers
of the United States gunooat Benning-
ton al San Diego, Cal, yesterday morn
ing was the most terrible disaster in the
history of the United States navy that
has occurred since the destruction of the
battleship Maine in Havana harb-r in
1898. Between 25 and 80 men were
killed and about three times that num-
Der manned. 1t is said that the explo-
sion was due to defect in the boiler,
which had heretofore been regarded as
weak, although the inspectors year ago
made a favorable report upon the same.
1t seems that notwithstanding all the
progress made during the past two-thirds
of century in the use of steam, it has
not yet been successfully bridled, and
occasionally explosions occur. Strange
TO say, most Of such accidents occur on
men of.war, where it is supposed more
caution is observed and all the latest
safeguards are utilized. In past years
several explosions have taken place on
British war vessels, as we'll as on those
of other nations. The disaster to the
Bennington was of most appalling
nature, as will be seen by the description
elsewhere in the Gazette, and should be
a sufficient admonition to the Navy De
partment to take more efficient methods
to prevent similar catastrOphes in the
future.

Don't Walt For Trouble.

While many men of experience and successful achievement in the world will advise seeking the line of least resistance" there are some notable and strenuous examples of successful men who do exactly the contrary. The odore P. Shonts. President Roosevelts selection for the head of the new Pan best living opponents of this theory. And for his unpleasant work at Pan anna he is to get the humping good salary of $1O0.0O0 a year His idea is, if there is a hint of trouble brewing. don't wait for the storm to out of it. but go and look for it and overcome it and ge, it off your mind.
 Who shall say that this is not by Ear the better policy ? It is very much like President Roosevelts own doe Urine. Perhaps that is the reason that he chose Mir Shonts for one of the most important tasks that this ad- ministration has before 1t. The the ory of it is particularly strenuous. l. doesn't necessarily imply that a man should seek trouble-never. indeed. tm- less he knows that it is seeking him; but then he must grapple with 1t and overcome it quickly; that is the best thing to do.
 Many men waste a lot of vital force in trying to avoid difficult situations. They are exemplars not so much cf "the simple life" as of the easy. lux. urious life. MT. Shonts does not be- long in that class. nor does any man who accomplishes anything worth while. His career is a good example for the inert youth to have before him.
