IN NORTH TOPEKA
John Williams Returns From
Mimic Naval War.
Ford Is Smashed in Encounter
With Street Car.

John Williams. who went to sea on
one of Uncle Sans warships for the
recent naval maneuvers has returned
home. He is enthusiastic about his
experience. 1t was like being in an
altogether different world. From
the moment when the 300 civilians
boarded the 1900 ton battleship
Louisiana, August Is, to their de-
barkation two weeks later. they were
under strict naval discipline. They
arose at O'Clock in the morning and
went through a set routine including
scrubbing decks. inspection practice
with the inch and inch guns, lee
lures on the management of guns and
its relation to naval strategy, the con-
slant washing of the white clothes
worn on board ship and many other
duties.
Williams was appointed petty Off
GER with the rank of coxswain and was
in charge of thirty men. He describes
the maneuvers off the Atlantic coast
in the effort to repeal the invading
fleet as very exciting and strenuous.
During the period in which the de-
Tending fleet was searching for the in
vading enemy the men got very little
sleep, so constant was the watch
occurred at $4,000 yards, the whole
affair, with the victory of the invad-
ers ended in twenty minutes with the
defeat of the home fleet. In naval
strategy Williams says, the fleet which
so maneuvers as to deliver the first
salvo, is practically sure to win, so
accurate is modern naval gunnery.
The food served the men was moth
ing to speak OF, pork and beans. with
pie and cake twice a week, and jam
once a week. They were given but an
hour and half shore leave, at Old
Point Comfort, during the cruise. The
lectures on naval strategy were given
by different officers of the fleet and
naval college. Williams says that to
give a seaman proper training in the
more technical aspects of naval work
requires years of experience and prac-
tice.
Among officers and men in the
navy constant discussions are waged
on the results of the great Jutland
battle in the North sea, and the ex
perience gained there has influenced
tactics materially.
Street Car Smashes a Ford.
An accident occurred Monday at
the corner of Gordon street and Kan
sas avenue when a northbound street
car crashed into a Ford driven by
George Dilatush of Route 8. The Ford
was travelling west on Gordon intend
ing to turn south on Kansas. When
the driver of the machine saw the car
coming he attempted to swerve north
10 avoid a collision. He was travelling
too fast to apply the brakes effectively
The fire station on the corner prevent
ed his seeing the street car. which
struck the Ford squarely in the mid
die The rear wheels were smashed
and the rear of the body crushed Dill

the machine. was u0in1ured,
