pleasure fleet which has been lying at an
Choir in the harbor OF the foot Of 10th
street southwest throughout the freeze,
started leaking yesterday, and was soon
waterlogged. and Is likely to go to the
bottom. The Ice is supposed to have
pulled the oakum out Of the seams of
the vessel and caused it to leak, as she
seemed to be all right until the Ice was
broken in the harbor. and, drifting away
from around the vessel, left her in clear
water. The name of the owner Of the
craft is not known at the lighthouses on
Water street.
The harbor police boat Vigilant was
called upon yesterday to rescue several
rowboats belonging to Edward Whyte,

Of ice that held them, and returned them

Washingtonians who know Mr.. Wright
say that he Is absolutely unique as q lee

known traditions Of the platform. His
manner Of talking, his gestures and his
subjects are said to be characterized by
novelty. Sometimes he walks about the
stage, sometimes he sits on chair and
talks and other times he will stand stock
still. But his manner of talking Is cred
tied in Georgia as being one of the
strong elements Of the campaign which
won that state to the dry side two
years ago. Mr.. Wright attended to no
business except that of the prohibition
campaign during the strenuous days be-
fore the bill was passed He is also well
known in Georgia for his chivalrous re-
spect for all women. A member of the

COUNTLESS PROBLEMS
FACE GRADS" He SAYS
DR.. Davidson Tells Mckinley
Training School Students
to Be ''Up and at Them.''
By Cos Mager.

Telling the graduates Of Mckinley Man
ual Training School that there are count
less problems to be solved in the world
and much work to be done In the name Of
humanity, DR.. William NJ. Davidson, SUI
perintendent of public schools, last even
ing told them to be ''up and at Them
DR.. Davidson compared the battle Of life
with the battle of Waterloo, declaring
that Napoleon, though a great soldier,
stood first for himself and then for
France. while Englan6s men were first
and last for England. 1t was this latter
policy which DR.. Davidson wanted his
auditors to adopt.
I'VE want you to realize that out on
the fields Of life there are problems to be
solved and wars to be waged by you," he
emphasized, land we want you, when
the time comes, to realize that your old
teacher here and your old teacher there
will say, oh, our splendid "Old Guard
UP and at Them
''The individual who has a full COM
prehension of what duty is and then fol-
lows that duty will succeed in any branch
of life he follows" declared the speaker.
Remember that work is to he looked
upon as a great blessing and not as a
curse as it was hundreds of years ago.
We want you to be measured I'm terms of
somebody, not In terms Of a cipher.
The world is too full of people who are
measured in terms of q cipher instead of
terms of 'somebodies.
Seek Principles and Ideals.
I'VE. don't care SO much for territory
as we do for principles and ideals that
will uplift the race" he asserted at an
other time.
He said that Emerson had outlined the
present-day education in 1887. He urged
discrimination in the use Of books, say
Ing that the amount of reading matter
was now sd great that no man could
hope to read moro than very limited
portion Of it. He pointed out the advan-
tages Of scientific. laboratories In the
schools. by means Of which nature could
be studied at first hand, and not only
through books, as was the case of schools
a generation or so ago.
But the mere knowing win not get
you anywhere" he continued. "You must
first acquire and then apply. OF course,
knowing Is essential first. Don't make
the mistake of thinking you can BLUM
through life. Bfuffing may work for
while, but in the final test of life it
will fail YOU"
Pays Tribute to Mckinley.
In conclusion DR.. Davidson paid a beau
tiful tribute to President Mckinley, for
whom the school is named. He said that
Mckinley was q good, noble man, EN-.
bodying countless fine qualities. He was
a man Of large and kindly heart" he
said.
A plea for the aid Of all those present
in getting a teachers retirement bill was
made by Ernest H. Daniel, a member Of
the board of education, who presided.
Capt. James F. Oyster, president of the
board, presented the diplomas, after con-
graduating the graduates. DR.. w. p.
