NAVY PROUD OF THE
DELAWARE'S PERFORMANCE

Washington.-Once more the navy
department Is calling attention to the
record-breaking performance of the
battleship Delaware, the finest ves-
sci in the U. S. navy. In the opinion
of navy officers, she has demonstrat-
ed anew remarkable efficiency, en-
durance and sea-keeping qualities, su-
perior to anything ever accomplish
ed in any navy of the world.
The Delaware on Its visit to the
coronation naval review, left New
York on June with 2479 tons of
coal. and 2S2 tons of fuel oil. She
arrived at Tor Bay, England, June
16, and at Spithead, the scene of the
review, June 10. She left Spithead
on June 23, and arrived at Boston
July ..
While abroad she took on no flu
ell, engineering supplies or stores of
any kind with the exception of fresh
water, and on reaching Boston she
had in her bunkers 607 tons of coal
and Is tons of fuel oil Her average
speed for the whole trip was 11.S5
knots.
That is, after crossing the Atlantic
twice, in a period oe one month anr
five days the Delaware still had suf-
ficient fuel to steam 1900 miles.
Just previous to her departure
from Boston, the Delaware returned
from cruise of 1880 miles, the last
leg of which was 1900 miles. on her
arrival in port, with only few hours
notice, she was sent out on a full
power speed and endurance test,
without opportunity to examine her
machinery. on this test she averag-
ed higher than her contract speed
of 81 knots.
Navy officers also believe the per-
formance Of the Delaware demon
strates the superiority of the reci-
procating engine over the turbine for
general service on battleships. It Is
probable that for the next few years,
at least, no turbines will be installed
in the new warships to be built.

RILEY'S FIRST POEM
PRESENTED TO TAFT

Washington. Though countless
gifts, usually more notable as curios-
tiles than for their merit are receiv-
ed at the white house. Secretary
Hilles the other day found in the
presidents mail an offering of con-
siderable literary value. 1t was
nothing less than a copy Of hitherto
unpublished poem by James Whit
comb Riley, which he himself has
said was the first poem he ever
wrote. 1t has been omitted from all
collections of Riley's verse, owing to
its purely personal nature.
The verse Is dedicated to Hamilton
J. Dunbar, who died in Greenfield In
diana, September 5, 1876.
In 1876, according to the letter
sent with the copy of the poem
James Whitcomb Riley was 23 years
old, and engaged in the occupation
of painting signs in his native town
of Greenfield. Dunbar was one of its
best beloved citizens. Riley knew
him well, and idolized him.
Twenty years after Riley told this
preacher, the Rev. Henry A. Butchel,
Methodist:
when the services were over
went home and wrote poem on Ham
Dunbar. It was the first poem I ever
wrote, and 1t gave me the idea that
after all I might be something more
than a sign painter?

MoDEsrY SPELLS DEATH.
Matron will Not show Leg to Doctors,
Dying.

Allentown, Pa.-Modesty Is dearer
than life itself to Mrs. Millie Vosek.
a young matron of this city who is
dying because she will not expose her
right leg to the surgeons view She
was bitten by n dog but doctors say
they can save her from death from
the rabies if they treat her leg but
Mrs. Vosek declares she prefers to die
rather than disclose the limb.
on her way home several weeks
ago, Mrs. Vosek was attacked by a fe-
rocious bulldog, the property of a
neighbor. The animals teeth made a
severe and painful wound in her right
leg. near the hip. Her husband beg
gsd her to allow him to call ply
sician but Mrs. Vosek, being of very
sensitive disposition. would not hear
of the plan. In the secure privacy
of her boudoir, she treated the wound
with simple home remedies but they
proved worthless, the leg swelling
and rabies developing.
The husband called a doctor and
explained his wife's ailment The
physician advised an operation Mrs.
Cosek demurred. Her condition be-
came serious and the doctors told her
she would die unless she submitted
her leg to them for treatment.
II would rather die than expose my
in the presence of a
doctor, said Mrs. Vosek determined
ly. modestly.
And the doctors say she will die.
