STEAMBOAT MEN OBJECT.
Do Not Relish Having Shells Fired
Toward Them From Indian Head.

Steamboat men on the Potomac, whose
routes carry them below the naval prov
ing grounds at Indian Head, are already
expressing discomfort at being used as
range markers by the men at the prov
ing grounds while testing the naval ord
nance. One Of the big guns that sends a
shell twelve or more miles was being
tested yesterday ss the steamer st
Johns. with excursionists aboard for
Colonial Beach. was on her way down
the river. AS the steamer passed in the
range Of the gun a shell was sent
screaming over her to strike the river
some distance away from the steamer,
sending q column Of water fifty feet in
the air or higher. The sight was, a very
pretty one, but the officers of the steam
ers assert that it frightens the women
and children on the ship. and is having
a deterrent effect on business. AS the
steamer Estelle Randall. which was
about twenty minutes behind the ST
Johns. passed the black buoy below the
proving grounds shell was sent fying
over her to strike the water a mile or
more away. Although there NAV he no
real danger in this kind Of thing, il is
hard to convince nervous persons of it.
and the question is asked what would
happen should the gunner make a mis-
take In his calculations as to the position
of the steamer and the shell should hit
her. The steamboat men say. there is no
necessity for firing shells over their
boats.

JOHN ?. GAv|T HEADS LOCAL AP.
WORK WILL BE DISTINCT FROM
THAT OF DIVISION.
Position as Manager Here Just
Created-Native Of Albany and
Noted Settlement Worker.

Announcement Is made by the Asso-
ciated Press today that John P, Gavit,
formerly its Albany correspondent. has
been put in charge as manager OF the
Washington Office This will be of gen.
eral interest to the newspaper men of
the country and especially of Washing
ton. Mr. Gavit will have charge of
the local news service here as distinct
from the work Of the division. which has
been for many years in charge of Col.
Charles A. Boynton. later assisted by
Edwin NJ. Hood. one Of the old MEM
bers of the Washington staff, who was
made assistant division superintendent.
The position of Washington manager has
just been created and is analogous to
the head Of bureau for any Of the big
out-of-town dailieS
Mr.. Gavit while Albany representative
of the Associated Press was made presi-
dent OF the Legislative Correspondents
Association. He is a native of Albany
forty years old, and is a grandson Of
E. D. Palmer, the noted American sculp-
tor, the designer of the statue of Robert
r. Livingston in Statuary Hall at the
Capitol.
Practical Newspaper Man.
He has been in practical daily news
paper work for nearly twenty-five years.
beginning in the early eighties with the
Albany Evening Journal. He was city
editor Of the Albany Morning Express
when in 1890 he went to Hartford. Conn.,.
to assume a similar position on the Hart
ford Evening, Post.
For nearly ten years he was active
in social settlement work in Hartford.
Chicago and Pittsburg, Pa, and while
in Chicago founded and was for five
years editor of the Commons. the organ
of the social settlements of the world.
Later the magazine was Joined with
Charities. and the two were published
in New York city under the title Charl-
ties and the Commons until few months
ago. when the name of the joint publica-
ton became The Survey"
Author Of Reporters Manual.
During all this period Mr.. Gavit was
closely identified with newspapers. and
in 1902 returned to his old field at AL
bany, and has since been connected with
the Albany bureau of the Associated
Press, in the charge of which he sue
ceeded George Edward Graham upon the
latters resignation in 1904.
Mr.. Gavit has for several years been
secretary of the Legislative Correspond
ents' Association and chairman of its
entertainment committee, directing the
annual dinners, which are recognized as
rivaling those of the Amen Corner and
Gridiron Club.
Newspaper men know him best as au-
thor of THE Reporters Manual" hand
book for newspaper reporters and corre-
spondents, which is unique in its field,
and known to newspaper men over all
the country.
