fleet when the United States armada
started from Gibraltar for home. The
maneuvers of the feet, REINFORCED by
nine warships from home waters, were
the most elaborate ever undertaken
by United States war vessels. And
when the fighting craft cast anchor
here February %, they were in fit con-
dition to steam out to face an enemy.
The program for the reception of
the fleet on its return to Hampton
Roads was elaborate and worthy of
the proud record made by the ships.
1t practically reversed the program
carried out when the fleet sailed.
President Roosevelt, on board the
Mayflower, anchored between the
Horseshoe and Lynn Haven bay, re-
viewed the fleet as it passed in. Rear
Admiral Sperry, the other commanders
and executive officers. then went
aboard the Mayflower to receive the
presidents greetings, after which the
president in turn visited the flagship
of each division and met the assem-
bled officers and six representative

sailormen selected from the division.
The cruise has been practice trip
throughout, but it remained for the
final lap to institute the maneuvers
and tests planned. The intention was
to give the vessels the severest trials
at the finish of their long journey, in
order that any defects in them might
be demonstrated.
In addition to the 16 battleships that
composed the feet, there were the
Yankton and Panther, two storeships,
and two GOLFERS. These were started
ahead from Gibraltar. Before they
had negotiated much Of the distance
westward across the Atlantic they
were met by the welcoming fleet sent
out from the United States. This
consisted of the battleships Maine,
New Hampshire, Idaho and Missis-
sippi, the armored cruisers Montana
and North Carolina, and the scout
cruisers Salem, Birmingham and Ches-
ter. When they Joined the others it
made a fleet of 20 battleships, five
powerful cruisers and two smaller
fighting craft. AS soon as the war
ships were assembled the real work
of the homeward cruise was under
taken. Admiral Sperry had framed
an elaborate program, in which all the
vessels took part.
While tie fleet, or the main body of
1t, logged along at pace that brought
1t into Hampton Roads February %,
the individual ships were put through
speed trials and endurance tests
Ships OF similar class raced to deter
mine individual excellency, while bat

ed one against the other to determine
the superiority of style.
There were also races between

should start for it's practice cruise"
to the Pacific from Hampton roads, all
the European naval experts on the
continent permitted themselves to
doubt whether our ships could ever be
got ready in time, and whether the
long cruise could ever be accom-
plished without serious disasters. But
every English speaking sailorman
knew in his heart that the great fleet
would be all ready and would start
exactly on time, to the minute, as it did.
Had Confidence In Fleet.
What is more, we all knew that the
great feet would swing around the
world, looking in at the Hawaiian is
lands, the Philippines, into China and
Japan, and back again without the
slightest shade of doubt in the soul
of any American that the feet would
always acquit itself we'll and achieve
what it set out to do.
This, indeed, is the great thing that
has been accomplished by the fleet.
For the first time in history the Pa
cific ocean has been put into commits
sion. This is great fact, great
achievement, the results Of which can
never be changed or lost. Henceforth
in the worlds history the Pacific
ocean, which first came into interna-
tional prominence only with Dewey's
great victory in Manila bay and the
Japanese victories in their own wa
tiers, will loom up In historical impor-
lance as did the Mediterranean before

Atlantic"
A better result even than this en-
viable achievement during the fleets
world cruise, perhaps, is the moral inn
preston made upon the worh at
large by the majestic appearance and
efficiency of our ships while under the
eyes of foreign observers.

Second Spanish Armada.

Second Spanish Armada.
Coming down to more modern
times, no one can have forgotten that
Ill fated cruise of another Spanish ar
mazda under Admiral Ceryera, which
ended in the total loss of Spanish sea
power at Santiago de Cuba.
All these cruises, like that Of Ro-
jestvensky, were remarkable not only
for their tragic endings, but for the
series of blunders, follies and mis-
haps that attended them from first to
last.
How different in comparison with
Nelson and Blake, or even such an
early long war cruise as that achieved
by old Admiral Drake when he sailed
his puny fighting ships all the way
from England around the Horn and up
to our own waters near what is now
brakes bay!
When President Roosevelt gave his
first order that the Atlantic fleet

all kinds. Even after the Russian
ships had at last got out into the open
sea after their ludicrous battle with
the British trawlers on the Dogger
banks they had to put into every neu-
trail port along the way for coal and
provisions, only to be humored or or
dered out again, according to the good
will of the various port authorities.
Then nearly six months had to be
during all that time, so Admiral Ro-
jestvensky's second in command has
testified, none of the crews of any of
the Russian war ships was drilled in
target practice.
In short, nothing could be more diff
ferent than this sad record of the Rus
sian feet commanders while steaming
around Africa and up into the China
seas and our own proud record while
our 16 battleships, two cruisers, six
torpedo boats and an auxiliary fleet
of supply ships and GOLFERS steamed
around the world.
Significant Historical Fact.
To the historian it cannot but ap-
pear as significant thing that all
other previous great cruises in his
tory, with the exception of those I'm.
dertaken by English-speaking sailors,
have only resulted in disaster and
shame. There was the great cruise
of the Spanish armada, for instance,
launched against England by Philip II.
of Spain, which ended in such utter
rout and disaster.
About the same time in the far east

dertook to subjugate Korea and China
with formidable fleet of some $50
war junks, many of them armed with
brass cannon, yet his fleet, too, was
overcome in fair fight by the COM
bined war fleets of China and Korea.

The cravings of the body for food,
drink, shelter and offspring are significant
as they are fused into the hungers and
thirsts of the spirit. "a spark disturbs
our clod." Man often becomes lower than
the beast because his physical passion is dis
turbed by his spiritual life. Beasts drink to
quench their thirst; man associates fellow
ship with his thirst, with drunkenness as
the result. The saloon rests primarily on
the craving for fellowship. Beasts eat to
satisfy the body's appetite; man becomes
gourmand, eating for fraternity's sake.
