When our balloon that sailed from
st. Louis came down in Delaware, and
had bid good-by to the two men
whom sailed with, and they had paid
me good money for my services and
keeping them awake, | thought OF that
feet We had passed over at Fortress
Monroe, the beautiful white battle
ships, and was afraid could not get
there before it sailed, and secure my
berth, as l had made up my mind to
20 with it around the horn, and help
fight Japan or mosquitoes. or any old
thing that came in the way, so |
took the first train to Fortress Men
roe, and found that the whole popula-
tion of several nearby states were go
ing too, as the president was going
to review the feet before it sailed.
The next day l was at the hotel at
Old Point and with hundreds of other
people took launch and went out
among the battleships. Every body
was welcome to 60 aboard the ships.
and We visited several of them and
were shown all over the vessels by
the uniformed packs.
Gee, but a battleship is like a sky
scraper on water. and you can 60 from
the roof clear down half a mile below
the water line, and it is like combi-

/ ever saw. because he thought one
of those 16.inch shells had gone of
in his hat, and everybody said:
Served him right" and then he
laughed, the first time since the re
view started. and he wanted the skin
Of my toy balloon as souvenir of
the first gun fired in the war with
Japan.
From that day. when l had exam
ined critically our fleet and seen 1t
salute. and monkey around the presi-
dent. l felt 30 patriotic that l wanted
to fight for my country, and | could
hardly wait two days for Mr.. Evans
to send his launch ashore after me,
and l didn't care If the whole thing
was iron, that couldn't float under
natural conditions and il Bob Evans
should put oarlocks on bar or rail-
road iron. and put me on it, with or
ders to go sink a Japanese sampan
or whatever they call their war ships.
| would step aboard that bar Of rail-
road iron with light heart, wave
my hat and tell them all to go plumb.
So We went ashore. and that even
ing there was a ball at the hotel. and
all the officers Of the navy were there.
and the army, and millions of ladies
with clothes on the lower half Of them,
and talcum powder and black court
plaster on the upper half, and the
way they danced and waltzed and firt-
ed and ct Holsters would make you
dizzy. and when Bob Evans walked
limping by me. with a 200-pound lady
on one arm. and a 90-pound girl on the
rheumatic side of him, was SO full
of patriotic fire l couldn't help saying:
Hello, Bob. will be on deck all
right" and he looked at me with an
expression on his face that looked
as though he had drawn lobster that
had been dead too long. and he
marched along with his female pro-
cession, and the orchestra struck up
a good night waltz, and everybody
waltzed. and took some drinks, and
went home to wait the sailing Of the
feet the next day, and I went to bed
with an order to be called at sunrise.
so could be on the porch with my
ticket in my hand. ready to jump into
the launch when she whistled and sail
away for a frolic or a fight" and
didn't care which.

PECK'S BAD BOY

They took me and wrapped an an
CORA goat skin around me, with the
hair outside. and tied a string to my
feet, and run it out of the breach o!
the big l6 inch gun, and another
string on my legs, and they pulled
me back and forth through that 4t
foot gun to swab 1t out and when
I came out alive they laughed and
were going to tie bag OF shot 10 my
feet and let me off a plank over the
side to practice on a burial at sea, but
| yelled for help and a cross looking
man came along and pardOned me. and
told the fellows to take me to his
cabin and wash the powder on my
face. and hold me until he could have
secured me with piece OF brick and
some yellow laundry soap. the man
came into the cabin. and the boys
who had hazed me said he was Admir-
al Evans, and remembered him cause
once when he was In the light house

his lap at the New Orleans Mardi
Gras. and l said: Hello. Mr.. Evans,
