HONOLULU, Aug. 31.-The United
States Transport Sheridan is ashore or
BARRIERS point, the southwestern ex-
tremity of the island of Oahu, on which
Honolulu is located.
The Sheridan went ashore at O'CLOCK
this morning. All efforts to send
boat ashore from her have thus fal
failed.
There is no beach at the place where
she struck and the heavy surf makes
it impossible to land anywhere neal
where she lies.
AS seen from the shore she appears
to be hung amidships and her rolling
is noticeable.
She lies broadside to the shore, her
bow pointing toward Honolulu.
The transport blew her whistles on
going ashore, but did not get into COM
munication with Honolulu until the
wireless telegraph station was opened
Owing to the fact that the Sheridan
is provided with water tight compart-
ments, and has a double bottom, 1t is
believed that she has sustained nc
serious damage.
The tug Fearless has started for the
scene and will render all the assist
ance in her power.
The Sheridan has aboard 125 through
passengers and fifty soldiers.

Secretary BOnRparte In Delivering Die pI0mas, Speaks To Youthful Off, eers of Their Duty To Govern
 ment and Service.

Annapolis Sept. 12-Secretary of the Navy Bonaparte this morning delivered to eighty-five rnidshipmen of the first class the diplomas which they have , earned hy A special summer course in stead of waiting to graduate with their class mates next February. The grad nation exercises were exc edingly sim pie and short.
 Secretary Bonaparte. in his address. said in part:
 .Young gentlemen: You begin today inc work of your profession For three years you have tried to learn how to do this work. with what progress the days before you will show. Here after you belong to your profession and in my trespass on your attention, this morning, I shall say but few words as to what that profession is.
 First, it is the profession of gen. tleman; to say this in your case is not adulation of snobbishness, but the state ment of a matter of each. For each one of you it is a legal duty to behave as q gentleman. and each one of you may be tried and punished as for crime if he fail in this duty.
 Some little time since I had no diff ficuity in sustaining the findings of an examining board that an officer who had not the sentiments, habits and manners of a gentleman. was professionally dis qualified for promotion. Now what is a 'gentlemanT The question may well be asked, for the word is grossly abus- ed in common usage, it means some times much and some times little. and often less than nothing. As used in the laws and regulations governing our navy, it's essential meaning Is that you and your brother officers have duties beyond the duties of others: that you have obligations which do not rest on All members of this community; that of you are required measure of self control; a readiness for self-sacrifice; a sensitiveness in honor which 1t might not be reasonble to expect not charit-

 '9rhesold English chronicle. in noting the death of an old Norman King. says piously; May God grant him peace, for he loved peace The King in question loved peacc' so well that he fought during well nigh his whole life to get and keep it. AS with this mediaeval sovereign, so 1t Is with the great nations of modern times; if they love peace, as. after ali. every wise and good man does, they must fight when needful and be ready to light when ever needful to get and keep q peace founded on justice and good faith, honorable to themselves and useful to mankind. And, in you and your com rades, young gentlemen, I grest with cof1dence those. who will see that America enjoys such peace and only such pease as Washington would wish her to have"

JUDGE UPHOLDs BURGIN.
Says There Is No Law Against the
 Buying of Scrip.

Birmingham, Sept. 12-(Special. J. The grand jury went before Judge D. A. Green, senior Judge of the Crimf- nal Court. today and made formal complaint that the sheriff of the Coun- ty declined to receive instructions from it and also that it had given orders to the sheriff to stop the buying of scrip in the court house, which order has not been obeyed.
 Judge Green informed the grand jury that the sheriff was correct in his position. As to the scrip buying the Judge stated that that was a legiti- mate business and that there was no violation of the law. However. If the Board of Revenue would issue orders the business could be prevented in the court house. and to that end the Judge made a suggestion.
 The grand jury informed the Judge that there was disturbance in front Of the room occupied by the inquisitoria. body and the court announced that formal complaint would be received, though it would have to be in writing and the offending interest would be cited to appear in court.
