mimicking him, there is such a per-

Then where is she?" he demanded
angrily. Annie made no answer, but
looked for advice to Judge Brewster,

The captain glared at her viciously,

quiet her:
"Hushl" she said gently, don't go
on like that Be brave. Perhaps It
won't be as bad as you think" She
unfolded the letter Alicia had given
her and carefully read It through.
When she had finished her face lit up
with Joy. Enthusiastically she cried:

after o'clock, however, he awakened,
and, raising himself with difficulty,
announced that he was choking.
Il cannot get my breath" he said,
and sank back. At AS o'clock he died,
conscious TO the end
At his bedside were his wife. his
daughter Mrs. H. I. SeWall, and his
daughterinlaw, Mrs. Frank T.. Evans,
wife Of the admiraIs only son, a lieu
tenant commander in the navy, now
on duty on the torpedo boat destroyer
Monahan, at Boston. The only other
member of his Immediate family, who
was not present was his daughter,
Mrs Marsh, wife of Capt. Charles c
Marsh, commanding the armored cruis-
er North Carolina.
Taft Expresses Great Grief.
The news Of his death caused a pro-
found shock in official circles. Presi-
dent Taft was one of the first to ex-
press his grief and coincidence. He
said:
Admiral Evans was one Of the most
successful squadron commanders we
have had in the navy for a long time.
He was rigid disciplinarian, of quick
decision and admirably advised in the
intricacies Of the machinery Of cruis-
ers and battleships and skilled in drill
ing them 1 am very sorry to hear OF
his death
Tributes by Dewey and Meyer.
Admiral Dewey was so overcome
Il am shocked beyond measure at
the sudden death of my lifelong friend,
admiral Evans, was all he could say.
Secretary Of the navy Meyer paid
this tribute to the officers memory:
BY the sudden death Of admiral
Evans the country loses one of its
most brilliant and able officers. It
was on account Of his ability that
president Roosevelt selected him as
commander in chief of the fleet that
cruised around the world. Although on
the retired list he had kept up his
active interest in the service and his
unexpected death came as shock to
the navy
High Tribute From MetcaIf.
Former secretary Of the navy Net
calf, who happens to be in Washing
ton. paid a tribute to the dead ad-
miral and told why the department
had given admiral Evans the COM
mand Of the Atlantic fleet on its cruise
around the world, the choicest assign
ment ever extended to an American
naval officer in time Of peace.
He was practically an i'll man when
he was selected for this important
duty" said Mr.. Metcalf but his snIen-
did record justified the department in
giving him this recognition of his long
and efficient service. He was one of
the most efficient and capable officers
the navy has known and his name ba
been a household word for years"
One of the iron links that bound the
old navy to the new, a commanding
figure in each, was Robley d Evans.
He did not take kindly to the sobri-
quet Of Fighting Bob" for, although
of gruff exterior, he was man OF
the hindliest impulses. Thus it never

But his dauntless courage in times

which he bore his wounds and gazed

Fighting Bob" he was known where
ever the English language Is spoken.
Evans was a mere boy when he was
sent to the naval academy at AnnapO-
lis. Before he had got far with his
studies the civil war broke out and,
throwing his books to the winds he
went to sea and was assigned to
blockade duty. It was in one of two
attacks made by the northern navy on
the powerful defences at Fort Fisher.

wound through the thigh which rem
dered him cripple for life. He suf-
fered three other wounds, but as soon
as discharged from the hospital ne

Helped Plan New Navy.
With the ending of the war there
came period Of stagnation which
marked the passing of the old wooden
navy. Evans drifted for a time into
civil pursuits, although never reIin-
gushing his connection with the SER
vice. In fact as soon as congress
manifested its purpose to meet the in
sistent demand Of secretaries Chandler
and Whitney for a renovation of the
American navy, Evans came back into
the service and was one of the lead
ing spirits in planning the rudfments
of what is now the American modern
navy.
It was Evans who took the
little dispatch boat Dolphin on
cruise around the world to
test the structural strength of this
first product Of the infant steel shin
building art Of the United States. He
always got the best ships and the
newest because his superior Officers
knew he could be trusted to handle
them safely and develop their strong
and weak points.
