HIGH STATE OF DISCIPLINE
CONDUCT OF GUN CREW ON THE
GEORGIA.
Midshipman Kimball Relates His Ex-
perience to Acting Secretary
Newberry.

Midshipman Lucien f. Kimball and his
associates who came down to Washington
to attend the funeral of their fellow class
mate. Midshipman John T. Cruise, who lost
his life as a result of the accident aboard
the batteship Georgia, went to the Navy
Department today, where they were given
their orders to return to their ships. They
vii! start back this afternoon or tomorrow
morning. The young men were the re
cipients of much attention and interest on
the part of the naval officials. Especially
was this the case with Midshipman Kim
ball. who was in the turret at the time the
bareback caused the powder charge to ig-
mite. He gave Acting Secretary Newberry
an interesting account of their experien e
on the occasion. At the time the powder
was ignited Midshipman kimball was IN
charge of the second eight-inch gun. AS
soon as he saw the blaze from the powder
Kimball pulled his cap down over his face
and Frustrated himself on the floor, and SO
escaped inhaling the nauseouS fumes and
gases with which the turret was filled.
Kfmball saw the great mass of powder
burning. which appeared to him to be about
three feet square. Two other men also pros
trated themselves on the floor, and when
the situation had been somewhat relieved
they helped to rescue the other men who
had been injured in the accident. Midshlp-
man Kimball bears evidence of his expe-
ing been quite badly burned
That the boys in the turret were mai king
a good record when the accident came to
interrupt Is shown by kimball's statemc nts
to MIR. Newberry. He said that etdy
there had been eight shots fired from the two
eight-inch guns in the turret in less than
two minutes. The record, according to the
naval officials here, with two guns In tur
ret is about ten shots in two minutes.
The acting secretary heard with gratiflca-
ton the stories told by the young midship-
ma of fnn col pnr m W
ed the work OF the ships crew and the
steadiness with which they resumed their
firing, even after the temporary demorall-
zation which followed the accident. The
men resumed firing the next day, and those
who were at work with the siX-inch gun made
the splendid record of seven shots and
fraction in one minute. The department d.
rected the immediate resumption of the tar
get practice after the injured men had
been taken from the vessel, its object being
to get the men away from the scene of the
suffering of their comrades and to train
them to meet conditions that might arise in
case of actual warfare.

SITE FOR ALDERMAN HOME.
Offer Made by Harry ]. Daily under
Consideration.

The movement for the erection OF HI
herman temple in Washington received
decided impetus yesterday afternoon at

of Hibernians which took place IN the

Harry ]. DAILY who has been MEMBER OF
the Ancient Order Of Hibernians IN WASH
,,s,on since its foundation in this city,
about fifteen years ago.
Mr.. Daily Is q lifetime resident OF Bright-
wood D. c. and at the meeting OF DIVISION
that if the organization will accept 1t ne
stands prepared to give a site for the tenn
pie in the Brightwood section. 1t was
stated that while the site offered is not IN
the city proper Brightwood has the ad-
vantage of two cars lines. one of which
affords through service from the center OF
the city, and in view of the great advance
of building operations all over the Ois-
trict of Columbia and the consequent I'M
provement of street car facilities. the site
proffered by Mr.. Daily will be considered by
the building committee.
In the light of many notable foundation
particularly that of the Cathedral of IS.
Peter and Paul and the American Univer-
sity both of which are being set up on q
suburban eminence, at Tenleytown, d. c.,
and the further prospect that the George
Washington University board may ulti-
mately select a suburban site, the purpose
to set up the Hibernian temple at Bright
wood is declared to be a pleasing prospect.
The property that Mr. DAILY has in mind for
the home is located near the public school
at Brightwood, which is across the road
from the prospective donors residence In
discussing Mr.. Dalys offer prominent
member said:
Il am sure the Hibernians of Washington
will feel deeply grateful to Mr.. DAILY for
his offer. He was originally identified in
this. city with the old st. Patrick's Society
and since the organization Of the Hibern-
ians has been one of its most valued MEN,

1t seems no longer the fashion to walk,
and since almost every one in visiting an
assembly hall travels by the cars, the few
minutes extra that 1t would take to go to
Brightwood or Tenleytown does not matter
great deal. In summer time especially
