Uncle Sam is at last to take steps
10 restore and preserve a number OF
historic warships-naval craft that
constitute the most vivid reminders Oh
some of the most significant events in
he history of the republic. some
folks who have heen under the mn
preston that these precious memeftoeS
have beer duly safeSuarded all along
NAV think that this is rather a late
dav to provide for the perpetuatlon OF
our most valuable object lessons IN
natrfotism. And so it is, in fact, but
there are several explanations of this
hardness.
For one thing, IL is only recently
hat the most famous of these time
honored fighting ships became so sore
~ in need of repairs that 1t Is evil
dent that something must be done to
save the historic hulls. So long as the
old ships showed no signs OF falling to
pieces that spirit of representation
which rules governments as well as
individuals allowed the matter to rest
and we went On preserving historic
buildings in all parts Of the country
and treasuring up all manner of his
toric relics but giving never a thought,
seemingly, to the most interesting OF
all the souvenirs of the republics de-
velopment to the status of a world
power.
Another circumstance that explains
why this subject has only now be-
come y matter of serious consideration
is hat it is only very lately that the
- t;,,n H. VIC ipYn1,1n mani
fest in certain modern ships which 1t
is desirable should be preserved fol
posterity. Reference is made to the
American armorclads that figured on
s~picuously in the Spanish-Americar
war-notably, Admiral DeWey's flag
ship. These vessels-all steel ships OF

above it may be explained that one of
the historic wooden w~arships may not
be merely put in shape for a quiet old
age within the sheltered precincts
of a navy yard. The exception is the
Portsmouth, an old wooden sailing
| vessel Which has lately been in use by
the United States marine hospital
service, and is nov at the navy yard at
Norfolk, Virginia. This craft could
be so restored for the sun of $25, 000
that her life would be. prolonged in
definitely if she We're anchored in
placid waters or moored to a dock.
But the people Of California are
strongly urging congress to expend
upward of 500, 900 in order to so re-
store the. Portsmouth that she will be
capable of a voyage to San Francisco
lin time for the opening of the Pana
ma-Pacific exposition.
The explanation of this interest in
the Portsmouth on the part of the
Presidents OF the Pacific cas- is found
in the fact that, it was this self-same
sloop of war Portsmouth which was
the first naval vesselatha unfurled the
American flag at the Golden Gate.
San Francisco, and it is desired to
have the historic ship not only serve
as an exhibit att the. forthcoming ex-
position, but also be anchored per-
manently in San Francisco bay as a
constant lesson in patriotism. An inn
portant feature of the scheme is thai
which contemplates that the Ports
mouth, en route to Frisco, shall be
the first vessel to pass through the
new Panama canal.
Coincident with the scheme for saw
ing the nations historic Warships
there has been launched by a number
of prominent men, including officials
of the. navy department., a plan fol
perpetuating the names of some OF
the honored craft that have passed
out of existence. 1t is proposed thai
the memorable names of gone but not
forgotten warships shall be bestowed
upon new vessels that may be added
to our modern navy. This has al
ready been done to some extent. The
battleship Delaware is the sixth o.
her name; the armored cruiser Wash
ington, the fifth, and the battleshiI
kearsarge, the second. But not al
the modern bearers of distinguished
names are in employment appropri.
ate to their history. For instance. the
present-day namesake of the Ranger
which was commanded by John Pau
Jones, is merely a schoolship. If this
project is fully carried out We may eX
pect to see on the high seas ere
many years American "Dreadnaughts,'
or more likely super-Dreadnaughts
bearing the names of the Bor
Homme Richard, the Constitution, tn,
Alfred (the first vessel to fly the
Continental flag), the Columbus, Con.
gress, Franklin, Lexington, Niagara
and the United States-the latter, like
the Constellation, having been built il
1897. At present the law require:
that all battleships shall be named
after the states of the Union, but i
is believed that the present is a par
ticularly good time to change this for
aside from he arousal of patriotic
spirit and interest in the old names
there is the circumstance hat tn,
navy has about exhausted the list O.
state names and there is little pros.
pect that any more states will com
into the Union for some time to come

Put to a Test.

A little boy was given two images
of plaster, coated on the outside with
pink sugar. He wanted to eat the
images, but he was warned on no
account to do so.
"They are poison" he was told,
IF you eat them it will kill you"
However, the boy was dubious.
He had been cheated before this by
grownup people. Finally he had a
young friend to spend the day with
him and that night it was discov-
cred that one of the images had dis
appeared. His mother, nearly fran
tic, rushed to him.

TOO LATE

The day will come when you will
look back from the edge of the grave
to the beginning, years ago, and
wish that you could have those years
again.
The day will come when you will
long for the hours that are wasting
today-the hours you are passing
and wish that you had the chance
to do what you should have done
years ago and sigh for the wasted OPP
portunities.
You will then realize what substan-
tial bank account you might now have
if you had even put a few dollars
into the bank each week. But it
will then be too late. Let this be
your lesson. You will find it more
profitable than vain regretting. All
you need is a dollar to start your
bank account.
Don't wait another day. One dollar
will start you.

HUMAN MIND IN ITS STAGES
Richard steeIe's Beautiful Thoughts
on the vIeIssItudes That Are Part
Of Life's Journey.

The mind in infancy is, methinks,
Ike the body In embryo; and receives
impressions so forcible that they are
as hard to be removed by reason as
any mark with which q child is born
is to be taken away by any future
application
We that are very old are better
able to remember things which befell
us In our distant youth than the pass
ages Of our later days, wrote Richard
Steele In the Taller For this reason
1t Is that the companions of my
strong and vigorous years present
themselves more Immediately to me
in this Office of sorrow. Untimely and
unhappy deaths are what we are
most apt to lament so little are we
able to make It Indifferent when
thing happens, though we know IL
must happen. Thus we groan under
life, and bewail those who are re-
heved from it. Every object that re-
turns to our imagination raises differ
ent passions, according to the circum-
stances Of their departure. Who can
have lived in an army, and in a Sc
rious hour reflect upon the many CAV
and agreeable men that might long
have fourished in the arts of peace,
and not join with the imprecations of
the fatherless and widow on the
tyrant to whose ambition they fell
sacrifices? But gallant men who are
cut off by the sword move rather our
veneration than our pity; and we
gather relief enough from their own
contempt Of death to make that no
evil which was approached with so
much cheerfulness and attended with
50 much honor But when we tu.n
our thoughts from the great parts Of
life on such occasions, and instead Of
lamenting those who stood ready to
give death to those from whom they
had the fortune to receive It'll say,
when we let our thoughts wander
from such noble objects, and consider
the havoc which is made among the
tender and innocent, pity enters with
an unmixed softness, and possesses
all our souls at once.
