COMPLY WITH THE LAW.
Scow-Schooners Bush and Fisher
Register as Merchant Vessels.

After having been in service on the
Potomac for fully ten years without be-
ing registered in the custom house, the
scow-schooners Bush and John Fisher
belonging to L. A. Clarke & Son Of this
city. have complied with the require
ments of the navigation laws and, hav-
ing been officially measured and inspect
ed have been documented and are now
merchant vessels of the United States.
Their names and descriptions will appear
in the government List of Merchant
Vessels"
The discovery that the vessels were not
enrolled at the custom house was made
when the Bush was reported : for
failure TO have proper equipment in her
hover yawl. When the custom house
officfals went to look her up 1t was
found they had no record Of her. In
n,,;ry developed the fact that the Fisher
v-as IN the same category, and Clarke &:
Son at once complied with the require
ments and had the boats properly docu-
mented by the government officials.
II is stated that when the vessels were
huijt for service on the river application
u.as made to have them measured and
enrolled by the customs oftcials. but the
collector at that time decided that YES
seis of the class Of the Bush and Fisher
were not subject to enrolment. The
matter was dropped. only to come up
again long afterward, when new rul-
ing regarding them was made.

pendent upon her father. before she can

Harry L. Bricker, hospital appren-
tice, was drowned in Guantanamo bay.
Cuba, through no act Of negligence of his
own. His sister was named as his bene-
ilciary in case Of his death, as he was
not married.
Bessie BVcker was born January IA,
1898. She lives in Washington with her
widowed father. who supports her. In
view of this fact, the Secretary of the
Navy inquired if it were not possible to
pay the money direct to the girl, as her
father was her natural guardian. without
the necessity of applying to the courts
Tor appointment of a legal guardian.
The controller Of the Treasury was
sorry that the law would not permit such
cutting of red tape. and said that 1t
would be necessary to pay the fund to a

POWER BOATS NECESSARY.
Substituted for Oar Propelled Yawls
by Vessel Owners.

Gasoline-power equipped motor boats are
now recognized as an absolutely necessary
part OF the outfit of a vessel almost Of
as much Importance as her sails. and
practically all the bay schooners hailing
from this city are so equipped. The
schooner Maine, the largest sailing craft
that claims this city as her home port.
has been getting along with an oar-pro-
PEELED yawl. but her master Capt. Jones,
has concluded that a power engine In
Eds yawl is necessary, and j. H. Carter
& Co., her owners here have decided to
give the vessel what Capt. Jones wants.
The vessel is now at Baltimore with q
load Of lumber, and while she Is there
will be supplied with new power tender
which Is now being built. 1t will be
equipped with an engine heavy enough
to tow the vessel in and out of tribu-
taries Of the Potomac where she goes
to load lumber and also for service in
calm weather or when the winds are UNI
favorable.
AS the Maine is often sent coastwise
her new power boat will be Of much
service to her.
