Battles Of the Future Wars
to Be Decided on Seas,
Cadets Are Told.

Annapolis, Md, June 3.-Expressing
the belief that any future war in
which the United States may engage
will largely, if not entirely be decided
by battle or battles on the sea. AS
sistant Secretary of the Navy Win
throp, in an address Friday to the
graduates of the Naval Academy, said
he was strongly impressed with the
necessity of maintaining a navy suffi-
cient in power to diminish to mini
mum any danger of losing control of
the sea-
"Graduating at twenty-five, you will
have about forty years of active serv-
ice before you: and although we are
all most desirous that war shall not
check the peaceful progress of the
nation. we must recognize that this
country since it's inception has never
enjoyed forty years of peace uninter-
rupted by war. The average period
between wars of this country has been
only few months over 20 years, SO il
anything like this ratio is preserved in
the future, you will probably see act
i've service. Understand me, that /
am most desirous Of continued peace,
and sincerely trust that the agitation
for arbitration treaties and an inter-
national tribunal with adequate power
to enforce its ordained DEGREES will
bear fruits. but he who believes that
international peace has arrived and
that no more wars will occur enjoys
an optimism greater than / can ac-
quire.
The control of the sea viii, in my
opinion, be the crucial turning point
of any war in which we may be en-
gagged, and it is therefore evident how
incumbent it will be upon you so to
maintain the material and personnel
allowed us by Congress that it may
always be at the highest point of eff.
ficiency"

class received their diplomas from the
hands of Mr.. Winthrop.

A FAMOUS BEAUTY
Richmond Woman Who Died
Saturday Game of a Dis

In the death of Mrs. Eliza Culbert-
son, which occurred yesterday, this
city lost one Of the few remaining
representatives of a former social re-
gime and a "grande dame" of the old
school, Mrs. Culbertson being a state
ly. and impressive figure on the rare

Mrs. Culbertson, as stated in the

guished English parentage, her faith
er, Major Anthony Hilbourne, being
an officer in the British army and
Wellington's staff. His four charm
ing daughters were known as the
"Hilbourne Beauties" in their native
city of Bath. England, which at that
time was center of aristocratic
gaiety for the English nobility and
gentry, Mrs. Culbertson being the
last survivor of these four beautiful
sisters. Her pictures appeared in a
Book of Beauty" current in a for
mer generation, with that of the
Duchess of Sutherland and other cele-
brated great ladies and her portrait
was painted by Hunt, a we'll known
artist of his day.

Later, in this country, to which she
came after a first marriage to one of
her compatriots, she was conspicuous

Dr. Culbertson had Offices in Indian
apolis. where he went at stated inter-
walls, he being an oculist of distinc-
ton.
DR.. and Mrs. Culbertson belonged to
that period in Richmond's life noted
for it's elegance and erudition. a day
which is past, but which gave to this
city its reputation for solidity and
culture. From both parents, Miss
Mary Culbertson, who made a name
for herself among the artists and lit

veloped into brilliant achievement

OF late years Mrs. Culbertson had
been confined TO her home on account
of physical infirmities incident to her
advancing age, but she had received
her friends until within the past few
months, her death resulting from
apoplexy and complications resulting
from a fall In conversation Mrs. Gull

her going marks another parting of
the ways between the old and new life

MOTOR CYCLE RACES
ON FOURTH OF JULY
Richmond Motor Cycle Club
Plans an Event at the
Local Speedway"

Speed fiends of Richmond will prob
ably have their 'irst local taste Of
sport on the Fourth of July. when the
Richmond Motor Cycle club intends
to put on a motorcycle race at the
Richmond Driving club. 1t will be a
''feeler," for the prospects of more
and bigger races here, later in the
we'll patronized, the Dayton. O., and
Indianapolis clubs will be asked to
compete.
For the later races, local dealers
will purchase high power racing motor
cycles, which are capable of doing 20
miles an hour on dirt track. TAe
new track at the Richmond Driving
according to motor cycle enthusiasts
being dirt track forms the most eX-
citing, although not the fastest of
motor cycle courses. -
Bent over their fiery, snorting ma
chimes. the gasoline speed demons
will be able to dash off a mile in un-
der minute. Flat dirt track racing
on the motor cycles is the most dan
gerous of racing sports. it is claimed.
While on banked wooden tracks. the
riders are in little danger even while
rushing hundred miles an hour, the
dirt track racers must win their
events by skillfully avoiding accidents.
Down the stretches they must rush at
incredible speed, while on the turns
there must be a sudden decrease. or
a headlong trip through the air into
the fence.
Richmond can boast some skillful
riders, old bicyciists, who have aban-
doned the human propelled machine
for its speedy brother. Mounted on
big seven horse power racers. these
men are expected to more than give
the Indianapolis and Dayton racers a
fight 1t is believed the motor cycle
racing will prove highly popular with
the Richmond public.
