PEACE
BY WILL M. MAUPIN.

flushed is the noise of battle, the can
mons roar is stilled;
Furled is the flag of carnage the world
with peace is filled.
And over the plain and mountain
Where lieth the sleeping dead,
The Angel of Peace now hovers,
Her snow-white wings outspread.
And forth from the earth there springeth
The blades of the waving grain
To nod to the welcome harvest
Ger the graves of the battle slain.
And joyful, the nations gather, and man
on the harvest looks,
For swords are beaten to plowshears,
and spears into pruning hooks.
Stilled is the tread of armies armed for
the deadly fray,
And birds build nests in the cannons that
belched death yesterday.
For men in the heat of passion
Gave head to the voice of peace,
And sitting meath branch of olive
Have ordered that war shall cease,
The wives and children singing
Now welcome the warriors home,
And laughter and joy are fiinging
Their echos to heavens dome.
And joy is the lot of nations as each on
the grand scene looks,
For swords are beaten to plowshears,
and spears into pruning hooks.
Gone are the hates of passions, tumult
and striving ceased.
And man made in Gods own image from
the blood-lust stands released.
The shock of contending armies
Gives way to the harvest song;;.
And Right with palm branch waving,
Is the victor over Wrong. -,
The roar and the crash of battles,
The means of the dying cease;
And over the plain and the mountain
Is the clear sunlight of peace.
The husband returns to the fireside, on
the faces of loved ones looks,
For swords are beaten to plowshears,
and spears to pruning hooks

ANOTHER VESSEL
ADDED TO FLEET
CRUISER WASHINGTON CHRIS
TENED
Launched From GIass-Covered Shed
at Camden, New Jersey by
Means of Automatic Trig-

By Associated P~ess.

By Associated P-ess.
PHILADELPHIA, March 1S.-Guests
from the state of Washington, the ma
tional capital, New York, Chicago and
other cities, including naval officers
and United States congressman, attend
ed today the launching of the armored
cruiser Washington at the yards of the
New York Shpbuilding company at
Camden, N. j.
The event signalized two innovations
in the launching of a warship. The
Washington was the first war vessel
to be launched in this country by
means of an automatic trigger device,
of the sole piece at the bow. She was
also the first in the east to be launched
from beneath a glass covered shed.
Miss Helen Stewart Wilson, daughter
OF former United States Senator John
L. Wilson of Washington, christened
the cruiser. In addition to the sponsor
the christening party included Miss
Katherine Hargrave of New York,
Miss Maude Wadsworth of Spokane,
Miss Ruth Stone OF Walla Walla and
Miss Grace Denny of Seattle, as maids
of honor, and ten girls from the school
which Miss Wilson attends in New
York. Former Senator Wilson and for
mer Governor John H. McGraw of
Washington, the latter representing
Governor Albert e. Mead, who was
unable to attend, were also in the
party.
christening stand beneath the bow of
the cruiser by her father, Ex-Governor
McGraw and De Coursey May, Dresi-
dent of the New York Shipbuilding
company. Miss Wilson and all the
maids Of honor carried huge punches
of American Beauties, which were pre-
sented by Mr.. May.
The familiar sounds of the knocking
away of the keel blocks and the saw
ing of the plank were missing. Instead,
one man went down to the keel amid
ships and operating a hand valve, re-
leased the two heavy steel triggers,
which in turn removed a cast iron
stay, and the Washington glided down
the ways into the Delaware river.
AS the huge craft began to move,
Miss Wilson swung the traditional bot
tie against the vessels bow. There
was a terrific din from the steam craft
lying in the harbor close to the yard
as the Washington moved into the
river.

NEW YORK, March 1S.--Secretary Of
state John Hay was taken i'll today as
liner Cretic for a voyage to the Medi-
terranean, and became so weak that
he was taken on board the steamer in
a wheel chair. That his condition was
not regarded as alarming seemed ap-

Mr.. Hay has been In i'll health for
some time, and the voyage on which
he started today was planned to give
him complete rest and an opportunity
to recuperate. The secretary's plans
include a stay of about six weeks in
Southern Europe.

Washington yesterday, accompanied by
Mrs. Hay, his daughter, Mrs. James
W. Wadsworth, jr., Clarence Hay, his
son, and Henry Adams, personal
friend. The whole party went to the

At the White Star dock there are

covered himself and kept on. AS he
was about to start up the gangplanl1
he was seen to turn deathly white and

piled upon the deck near the gang
plank, where he sat down, and waited
until an invalid's chair was brought
from the steamer. He was then
wheeled aboard the steamer, and went
at once to his apartments. 1t was
within few minutes of the steamers
sailing time when the secretary went
on board. and it was believed that II
his illness had been regarded as seri-
Gus there would have been some delay
while physicians were summoned or a
change in plans made.
No word came from Mr.. Hays apart

dock promptly on schedule time.
AS she passed Sandy Hook the Cretic

Special TO The Herald.

Special to The Herald
SANTA BARBARA, March ia
writ of attachment has been served on
George whittell, jr, son of the San
Francisco millionaire, for the sum of
s12S. 55, alleged to be due to the Harry
Wood Machinery company for repairs
on his Moore racing car, with which he
intends to tour Mexico and Central
America. The machine has been dis
mantled and a special body made for 1t
which has been enameled white in the
form of French racing cars.
When the bill for repairs was pre-
sented to Mr.. Whittell he requested
that it be sent to San Francisco for
collection. The machine was taken to
the freight depot in this city and loaded
for shipment. The bill Of lading was
issued to Whittell for the shipment Of
the racer to Salinas. Wood discovered
the fact and he levied an attachment
on the machine, but owing to the hour,
1t was impossible to take any action in
the matter. The machine was shipped
away and the attachment has been put
into the hands of the sheriff at Salinas,
where 1t will be served when the ma
chine arrives. Whittell will leave to-
morrow for Salinas.
George Whittell, jr., has had several
unpleasant experiences since his ar
rival in Santa Barbara.
He was sued by his stenographer for
$4,000 in San Francisco and the sum-
mons was served while he was at the
opera house in this city.
Warrants were out for his arrest for
fast driving but his chauffeur pleaded
guilty for him and paid $25 fine.
He had the misfortune to smash an
automobile belonging to Hill & Brent
ner of this city in wild ride down
State street.
Another of his automobiles was
wrecked by a street car, for which he
has sued the street car company.

treme exhaustion of the nerve centers
brought on by overwork," is the cause
assigned by the surgeon general of
the navy, who is Secretary Hays ply
sician, for the secretary's collapse Just
before boarding the steamer at New

ceived no message from the family
but from his knowledge of the secre-

fainting spell was due to this cause.
Secretary Hay Is worn out from
overwork," the surgeon general said,
land 1 have urged him to take this
trip in the hope that the sea voyage
and separation from official business
will restore his strength. The coun-
try does not begin to know of the work

spite several attacks of grip and bron-
chitis. AS result his nerve centers
are well nigh exhausted. l am hope
