as Capt. Smith explained that although
the cruisers men had won signal honors
as expert marksmen and had III other
ways distinguished the state for which
she was named, South Dakota had not
seer tit to follow the time honored Gus
tom of presenting its ship with a silver
service and the reception cupboard
stood empty. Col. Thornby at once got
busy on his return home. He took up
the matter with Governor Vessey and
other state officials with the result that
the missing silver service was dis
covered last week In dusty nook in
the New York warehouse where some
officials negligence had permitted 1t to
lay unnoticed when the ship was
launched. Then the government took
hand, and now Captain Smith has
been notified that the service will be
presented at once.
