MOTHER PARKER

Human life does not produce any
thing more beautiful than the mother
aged with years but clear of intellect
with her children assembled at an an.
niversary to give expression to their
love and devotion. The only degrees
Of pleasure in such incidents are meas
ured by the size of the family and the
extent to which the mother has spread
her kindly love among others than
those drawn 10 her by kinship ties.
Mother aPrker is a woman Of eighty
millions. not alone in having reached
the extraordinary age of one hundred
years. but in that broad motherly spit
IL which has made her life and her
teachings a factor in the career Of 50
many people. She is not Mother Par
ker to her immediate children or to til"
missionary children alone. Hundreds
who have come within the influence Of
her great heart, and inspiring life
share the privilege and honor Of mem
bership in her family that includes
many generations.
The career of such woman Is a re-
minder that the victories Of life ara
not always found in the clashing, spec
tacular struggle. There is no greater
glory, no wider power than that eS
srted by the Mother.

The vessel was considerably dam.
aged by the fire. The blaze had burn
ed to such an extent that the four inch
oak planks used in the ship ceiling
were burned to cinder, and for con-
siderable space were completely eaten
away. The burning coal dropped down
to the steel plates. The heat and
smoke were so intense that 1t was i'm
possible for the workmen to remain
below but few moments. Had the
vessel been built of wood instead of
steel there would undoubtedly have
been another disaster and grewsome
tale of the sea on record.

Until such time as the business men

will do well to so slow.

stock, Port Royal and the Naugha-
tuck. This was the order of the line
termed by navy officers Teconnoiter-
on picket for three previous day
looking for concealed batteries, fire
RATS and t%orpedoes. This is what is
termed by navy officers reconnoiter-
ing in force. Fort Darling is locat-
ed en- Wards bluff, in a bend of the
James river. At 1880 a. m. the
musketry began firing at us. At
$50 after some firing the several
vessels got in positions assigned them
by the commodore. Our position
was abreast opposite Port Royal lee
the south shore, in front of the rife
pits, and commenced at once to fire
our parrot gun at the fort. Directly
under the fort, in the bend of the riv-
err, the rebels had driven two rolls of
piling across the channel. At this
point tho river is about hundred
and seventy-five yards wide. At
times the Naugatuck was 81 lei
the banks that you could jump
ashore on each side of the piling that
had sunk the gunboats jamestown
and Yorktown, and the steamboats,
Curtespeck and Northampton. Dur
ing the engagement the Galena sunk
the gunboat Teaser. In opening the
engagement our firing was confined
to our heavy gun principally. using
shot and shell in which we did some
execution. At $40 the gun got so
hot IL bursted, causing havoc all
around the vessel. Up to the time 1t
bursted we had fired forty-two shots,
shell and canister into the fort. Our
captain, the two soast pilots and the
captain of the big gun were all SER
iously injured and all died of their
injuries. Having no surgeon aboard
they were all sent on board the Port
Royal except the captain. The sur
geon of the Arrostook came on board
and bled Captain Constable, who had
conclusion of the brain. The two
pilots were in the pilot house in the
real of the gun. The conclusion of
the gum. when it bursted, lifted the
roof off the pilot house and burst the
drums of both pilots. The gun
ner was picked up opposite the com
panion way to the. engine room, with
a part of the gun carriage on top of
him. After removing the carriage
from the gunner, we found he still
had life. We lowered a boat and
sent him on board the Port Royal.
Perth Amboy evening news., 1905-12-29

When the gun burst, it burst our
decks all open, and as we had three
feet of water over our main deck,
deck, this water ran down on the
berth deck, boiler and engine room.
This we were obliged to pump out
with our centrifugal pumps to keep
afioat. During the excitement the
rifle pits annoyed us a good deal,
and we had now to depend entirely
upon our twelve pound brass guns.
They were both run owe on the star
board side and kept up a continuous
firing from first one and then the
other, finally clearing the pits from
the sharpshooters. Our parrot gun
bursted at the tr%unions, and split
back to the venthole. One-half went
overheard clear of the ship, the other
half dropped across the companion
way leading to the berth deck on the
starboard side. In this companion
way Captain Constable was standing
directing the firing of the parrot gun,
and was knocked down to the berth
deck by one of the rubber blocks,
used in taking up the recoil of the
gun. With the exception of one the
captains of the { IalI guns, who was
picked off by a sharpshooter, that
was the extent of the casualties on
board of the NauGatuck.
At 10:45 the Arrostook got a shot
on her water line and shortly after
the Port Royal received a shot be-
tween wind and water, causing her
to drop out of the engagement.
Some time after the commodore sig
nailed the vessels to withdraw from
under the fire. We hove up anchor
and the Monitor and the Gelena fol-
lowed. Just after we left our posi-
ton two shells burst where We had
been laying for four hours, and !
doubt If our pumps could have saved
the vessel from sinking.
The result of the engagement was
that WI were all compelled to hobble
off for various reasons, if | except
the Monitor, while she played havoc
with the rife pits. They could not
get elevation sufficient to bring their
guns to bear on the fort. Commo-
dore Rodgers anchored the flagship
north side to the fort, giving and re-
ceiving shot for shot. The Gelena
