STATE NAVAL MILITlAS
MUST PROVE EFFICIENCY
Cannot Have Government Vessels
Unless They Make Use
of Them.

Naval militia organizations throughout
the country which are lucky enough to
have at their disposal the few vessels
which the Navy Department has for such
use will have to show by their records
submitted to the department that they
are using them and getting the proper
sort of training.
The strong demand on the Navy Depart
ment from organizations which have not
a naval craft. coupled with the scarcity
Of vessels for that service, has promp(ed
the Navy Department to issue general
order stating that IL the organizations do
not get sufficient number Of cruises on
the vessels each year the Navy Depart
ment will give them to other organiza-
tons.
Not only will the department require
the organizations to use the vessel for
making cruises. but the records SUBJ
mitted to the depar tment must show that
the organizations are capable of attend
ing to the upkeep OF the vessels and do
not have to send them to navy yards for
every little trouble discovered aboard.
That order, It is expected, Will insure
the assignment Of vessels to the efficient
naval militia organizations, and will
leave the inefficient organizations with
out vessels after they have shown that
they cannot take care Of them. There
are very few vessels Of the navy avail
able for naval militia purposes, and the
department has difficulty in meeting all
requests.
naval militia organizations. it was re-
ported. are lying idle. When that report
reached the department a general order
was issued on the subject.

PRAYER REDEEMED GIRL;
PREACHER GETS FORTUNE
Grateful Father Remembers in viii
Man Who Sent Daughter
Home.

CHICAGO, July 25.--David S. X.
Byrne, a Pittsburgh evangelist. Is in
Chicago to establish his identity un-
der the terms Of the will that will
make him a rich man. The legacy is
given him because his prayer. uttered
on Bonded knees In the rear OF a Chi
cago saloon six years ago. turned back
toward Baltimore home a girl who
had lost her way and restored her to
her family
was Lucy Byrne, and that her father
was a well-to-do resident OF Baltimore.
The two had q long talk. AT Its close
tho girl assured the evangelist that
she would go home. A few weeks later
he received a letter from her father
telling Of his gratitude.
"One thing l want To do in apprccia-
ton of YOU work. wrote the father.
Il want to support your undertakings
Help other women as you have helped
my girl. Go out among them and
preach. l Will stand by you. And be-
cause 1 feel toward you / ask that you
change your name to Byrne.'
Complying with the request the
evangelist changed his name from
David 8. Kidd to David s. X. Byrne
and under that he had worked the last
few years.
Lucy Byrne died a few years after
her return to Baltimore, but the evan
gelist continued to hear from the
father. few weeks ago he learned
that the man was dead. Then he was
informed that a large legacy had been
left for him out Of the Byrne estate
and that he was to be one Of the execu-
tors Of the will. He was asked to
prove his identity at once.
For the last few days the evangelist
has been taking the dispositions OF
friends who knew him at the time he
first met Lucy Byrnc in Chicago.
The evangelist does not know the
amount Of the legacy he is to get. but
has been advised that It Will amount
to many thousands Of dollars.

LEE STATUE PLAN APPROVED.
More Letters Indorsing the Proposal
of a Monument.
To the Editor Of The Star:

TO the Editor or The Star:
The suggestion in your issue of the 18th
instant by Daniel Smith Gordon that a
statue of Robert E. Lee be placed in one
of the circles in this city, followed by
other letters indorsing the same, has
aroused a new trend of thought in my
mind The cordial feeling OF union and
brotherhood and forgetting the past AT
the recent Gettysburg celebration de
serve a memorial in the Washington

loved country. We are a United States
now in heart, not only in name. Wash

Grants statues should stand that OF
Robert E. Lee. GEORGE DONNELL.
To the Editor OF The Star:
1t was with pleasure l read in your is
sue of the 10th the suggestion made by
your correspondent, Daniel S. Gordon
that in view Of the never to be forgotten
reunion OF the soldiers of the north ano
south on the historical field of Getty
burg, and of the bond of brotherly love
and good fellowship sealed by them there
on the fiftieth anniversary of that battle
a national monument by popular subscrip
ton be erected in this city to the mem
DRY of Robert Il. Lee Such monu
ment would be expressive not only Of
that famous reunion, but of the reunion
of our nation.
The suggestion meets with my hearties
approval, as l am sure it will with thou
sands of others.
It has been my privilege in the pas
twenty-five years to visit almost ever,
state in this great Union, and to lister
to many Of the tales of hardship ant
suffering from old Union veterans who
fought through the civil war; and I can
not recall one instance where a word o.
reproach was spoken against Lee. how
ever sore they may have felt agains
the south and its people. His memor,
and chivalry as a man were dear to then
all.

Little Girls Troubles 49, b,
Ora Nelson

Dear Juniors:-As I haven't written
for long time thought I would write
on the subject OF little girls troubles.
Once there were two little girls. One
of the little girls names was Made
line Williams. The others name was
Adeline Lindsey.
Adeline and Madeline lived In town.
They both lived on tho same street.
Madeline lived in q, largo brick
house. Adeline lived In q large frame
house painted white.
These two little girls were good
friends in all their play but playing
with dolls.
Madeline had q large curly headed,
blue eyed doll. She called GENEVA.
= Adeline's doll was Just like Made.
lines doll only 1t had brown eyes.
She called her doll Kathleen.
Madeline and Ade1tne had pretty
dresses, hats and coats.
One day Madeline and Adefine each
made play house.
Then their troubles began. They
had nice furniture, but they got mad
at each other and all their nice moss,
organs, chairs, bureaus, tables and
beds were torn down BY kicking them,
and kicking and pulling each others
hair.
Then they sat down and began to
cry and that was the last of It.

Genevieve Mincks Writes Of
Her Aunt Edna

She has blue eyes, fair complexion.
height about feet and has light
brown hair She was born May IA, 1885,
She was next to the youngest Of five
children
Her father died while she was so
young she could not remember him
and her mother had to work very hard
to support them and soon died while
my aunt was only about years old.
She was taken to an orphans home
where she was separated from her
brothers and sisters. Some old folks
adopted her but they soon afterwards
died and their son and his wife took
her to raise She had to work very hard
and was deprived Of her schooling.
She was married at the age Of 10 and
three years later a sweet little girl baby
was born to them, which thew named
Mildred Frances. She Is six years old
now For a while they owned a pretty
home on the south side of Ottumwa,
but two years later moved to Denver,
Colo, for my aunt's health. While there
they sent US many beautiful scenic
post cards. In about six months they
came back and stayed about two years
until last fall, when they went to Chi
cago where they lived about four
months. We received many cards
from them there also. They are now
residing In the west End OF OttumWa
and when we igo there our Aunt Edna
knows Just what we like to eat and
what we like to play and she always
Joins In our games. OF nights when
we stay down there she pops US corn
and makes candy and we always have
so much fun as we gather around the
evening light. Should not girl or boy
be proud of such an aunt?
