Our First Naval Hero.

The first naval hero of the United
States-now almost forgotten-was
jeremiah O'Brien, Maine man,
whose racial descent is clearly indi-
Gated by his name. He commanded
an American vessel in the first naval
battle Of the revolution, which was
fought near Machiss, Me-, June II,
ITS. Some little time before an Eng
lish schooner, the Margranetto, was
at Machias, and a number Of the peo-
pie Of the town, led by Jeremiah
OBrien and Benjamin Foster, con-
spired to capture her. The attempt
was successful, and with O'Brien in
command, the Margranetto made a
voyage To the Bay of Fundy. An Eng
lish schooner and tender were sent
out to look for the Margranetto, and
when O'Brien returned to Machias he
found them awaiting him. The first
naval battle of the United States was
fought then and there, and O'Brien
and his men added the schooner and
tender to their prizes.

Germany and Mothers-in-Law

Franz Bopp, German consul to San
Francisco. said in an address to dele
cation of business men at the eXposi-
ton:
Germany is being as much maligned
as the mother-in-law of the joke world.
Whenever / think of Germany nova
days, have to think of mothers-in-la
"A man with really excellent
mother-in-law came back from the
shore with mother-in-law story.
"He said woman fell off the pier
into the sea one morning, and fat
man began to rave and roar:
My wife! Oh. save my dear wife
A reward of $40 to the man who will
save my wife from watery grave y
"A fisherman leaped in and saved the
woman. Then he modestly demanded
the promised 500 from the fat man.
But the fat man bit his lip and said:
"I'm sorry, my dear fellow, but
there has been some mistake. You see,
it wasn't my wife you saved, after all.
1t was my mother-in-law. / mixed the
two ladies up in the confusion of the
moment.

MAJESTY OF SEA REVEALED
Traveller In AIrshIp Tells How He

From an ajrship II. Warner Allen

sea, flecked bere and there with foam
and its blue expanse cut sometimes
by the ash Of q seagull's wing 1.-THE
seagull itself far below was invisible,
but it's wings flashed bright as they
caught the SUM, stretched out to a
horizon line which was perfect Sec

Behind US, and ahead where the
land lay, a screen of light mist inter
posed and cut short our view in q
straight line.
THE sensation was one Of perfect
content mingled with a solemn rev.
erence for the vastness Of the sea;
not a sail in sight and nothing to divert
attention from our swift arrow-like
fight.
: THE shadow OF the bag moved
lightly across the waves. There were
no varying air currents, and the air
ship kept smoothly on with an even
motion.
THE sea beneath gave an added
sense of security, as though. II need

Even the mechanics, men hardened
to every form Of danger, seemed
touched by a feeling of awe and were
silent; they had nothing to do but
gaze across the sea, as the even roar

Special to Times
Waterloo, Sept. 27.-When the Meth
odist conference got around to the
Harding resolutions Monday the mem
bers knew just what Methodist ought
to do to wet candidate and they, said
SO twice, as it were. The resolutions
were presented and carried. whereupon
three members asserted that no oppor-
tunity had been given; for consideration
of the report Then E. J. Lockwood,
chairman Of the committee which had
prepared the resolutions, having voted
for them himself, moved to reconsider
He did this SO as to give the minority
plenty OF rope but the motion to re-
consider was overwhelmingly voted
down.
The resolutions recite that Harding
has always consistently and persist
emily" opposed temperance legislation,
that 1t would be incredible for him as
governor to support that which he had
always opposed as legislator. that
members of the conference would be
traitors to our trust" If they did not
condemn his candidacy, that Harding
would get the votes of wet democrats
therefore dry republicans owed it to
themselves and the cause of good gov
eminent to vote for Meredith. The
resolutions were signed by E. J. Lock
