OUR eUNNERS At SANTIAGO
coMMANDER SIMS COMPARISON
PRONOUNCED UNFAIR.
Shooting by Our Sailors at All Times
Has Always Ranked With the
Best in the World.

Representative Hobson. who as naval
CONSERVATION. sank the Merrimac in Santi-
ago harbor, said last night to a New
York World representative regarding
Commander Sims declaration that the
shooting of our. gunners in the battie VI
Santiago was disgracefully inefficient
that it is not fair to the navy to COM
mare the percentage of hits made at San
tiago with the enormous percentages no"
realized. The true measure, said capt.
Hobson. was it's effectiveness. which at
tanned a maximum both at Manila pay
and at Santiago. encompasslng the totai
destruction of the enemy without any
loss to the victor, record that never mas
been euualed in the history of the world
and never can be surpassed as long as
time lasts.
"At that date. as at every other date
when the test has been made, our gun
merry has shown itself to be the very
highest. and l believe today 1t is still
the highest in the world.
naval officer who refused to have his
name used said:
"At the battle of Santiago an entire
feet was destroyed. On the fleet were
2. 800 men, Of these LOO were captured
of them? Killed in battle is the only
answer.
Traces of Hits Obliterated.
An officer. now in Washington. who
was OH the New York, Admiral Samp-
sons flagship, said:
1--WE got into the action late-we on the
New York-but / saw the results when
it was all over. 1t was most complete
victory It seems unfortunate that any
one should find it necessary to attack
the officers and sailors who won the bat
ties of Santiago and Manila bay.
ut is stated by Commander Sims that
we made but w per cent of hits How
does he know? He estimates. or course.
bv the ammunition expended and the
holes found in the Spanish ships. But
he does not take into consideration that
| three of the Spanish ships burned and
were wrecked by explosions Whole
decks and sides of the vessels were
blown away. All traces of hits on those
parts of the ships We're obliterated.
Besides, Admiral Cervera told Com
modore Schley that at one time he looked
about him on the bridge and found to
his establishment that every officer on IT
except himself had been killed. These
hits could not be counted by Commander
Sims or any one else. They left no rec
ord except dead men,
No Shots Hit the Water.
An officer who was on the Brooklyn
with Commodore Schley said:
'The smoke settled over the water. and
it became so thick at times that it was
difficult. from the battery deck to see the
effects of the shots. At one time Com
modore Schley called to man aloft. ask
ing how the fire was landing. He called
down: Il don't see many of 'em hittin'
the water. sor' That was evidence
enough that they were landing where
they would do the most harm to the
Spaniards.'

Honc For N striEe.

The more conservative of the win
dow glass workers organization are
quite hopeful that there will be no
strike, basing their hope or what they
state is fact that the new wage
scale Will give about the same pay
as they received for October's work
under the sliding scale.
The claim is set forth that the
workers have been subjected to hard
ships under the sliding scale by the
wholesale cutting of the prices Of the
manufactured article by manufactur-
ers IN their competition for business.
The Telegram Is not familiar with the
subject and does not know the cor
rect steps to take to adjust the differ
ences. But, 1t appreciates the fact
that the glass business is an lmpor-
rant one IN Clarksburg and this paper
would depIore a strike.
It is sincerely to be hoped for the
welfare of all concerned as woll as
the community that satisfactory adj
justmept will@be made at the earliest
possible moment.

Friend Pays Tribute of Re
spect to the Late Miss
Mollie Smith.

The entering into the new life
of Miss Mollie Virginia Smith, on the
morning of the day and In the morn
ing of life, has brought to her own
bereft ones and to her many friends
and admirers profound sorrow, deep
and long-abiding. Her refreshing
spirit of cheerfulness was constant
and never failing inspiration to all
who came within the sphere OF her
beneficent influence. Hers was a
type of character endowed with most
attractive. intellectual gifts of a high
order, broad human sympath les for
all; In disposition SO bright. sunny
and kind hearted, that 1t was pleas
ure to be with her. Fluent and un-
affected in conversation, she was an
entertaining and delightful compau-
ion. Always tolerant of others Zopin-
she never gave harsh Judgment. Her
presence was magnetic and those who
met her were lnstInctiveIy drawn to
her. During the last year Of her
earthly existence, she experienced
much suffering, but was patient and
always hopeful OF restoration to
health: DESTROYS of resuming her
place among influential workers. yet
resigned to the knowledge that now
her strength was to sit STILL Her
nature held in reverence all things
holy. She loved the church in all
it's branches and all 1t stood for and
in the fold OF her especial choice,
she underworld earnestly not toI
neglect any opportunity TO show Il
helpful spirit.
We think OF her as having been
called to a larger service, beyond our
clouds and mists and shadows. She
in performing dutieE was forceful yet
gentle. fearless yet humble, constant
and devout and appeared replete with
the consciousness of personal re-
sponsibility to God for all that gives
this life its highest dignity, tone and
worth. so. as the tenement of clay
is covered from our sight, we ask for
this mortal part, sweet repose; to |
her memory, richest incense: to her
spirit, blessed Immortality and
may relatives and friends, in His time
again clasp hands with har after
crossing the beautiful River Of
Rest and entering the Elysian |
God receive her; Christ accept her. !
For God IS inheritance made meet,
Accepted, perfect and complete.
For such life and its example. we
yield.
