Sponsor at Launching of U. S. De-
stroyer O'Bannon at San Francisco
Her Husband is Great Great
Nephew of Dashing Warrior

In the pouring rain at the Potrero
plant of the Bethlehem Snipbuilding
Corporation at s o'clock yesterday
morning Mrs. Henry O'Bannon Coop
er, of Alexandria, Va, wife of the
general attorney for the Southern
Railway system, sponsored the
launching of the destroyer OBannon.
The vessel was named IN memory
Of First Lieutenant Presley n. O'Ban-
non, who fought with the United
States marine corps in the war with
Tripoli in 1905. Mrs. Cooper's hus-
band is great great-nephew of
Lieutenant O'Bannon, and for that
reason she was selected to christen
the destroyer.
The O'Bannon, which is the forty
seventh war craft launched by the
Bethlehem ,5hipbuilding since April,
1917; is 314 feet long, of 1900 tons
and is expected to make thlrty-flve
knots.
The launching of the destroyer
yesterday revived the story of Lieu
tenant O'Bannon's Tripoli expedition.
On the morning of April 26, 1905, he
left Alexandria, Egypt, in charge of
small company and later arrived
before Derne. After the Hornet,
Nautilus and Argus had shelled the
forts. Lieutenant O'Bannon stormed
the works, hauled down the Tripoll-
tan ensign and, for the first time,
the Stars and Stripes were holsted on
a fortress in the Old World.
Subsequently, when the General IN
command was wounded, Lieutenant
O'Bannon took command of the bat
terry and routed the enemy.
Mrs. Cooper and her husband, who
left Hotel st. Francis yesterday af-
ternoon for Southern California, are
on their first western visit. They
will remain in the south few days
before returning to Virginia.-(San

SALE OF OLD DLANDNARK
"Snowden House." ON Lee Street, Be-
tween Gibbon and Franklin.
Changes Hands, and Will be Con-
verted Into Apartment Hotel.

r. S. Roberts has purchased from
Richard B. Washington, the dwelling
on the west side of Lee street, near
Franklin, long known as the "Snow-
den House." and it will be converted
into an apartment hotel.
This house was erected in 1870 by
the late John c. or Thomas Vowel,
who came to Alexandria from Eng
land during the last years of the
revolutionary war. 1t was supposed
at the beginning that the southeast
ern section of the city would become
the residential part of Alexandria,
and this house was one of number
which was erected about that time
il. that locality.
During the early part of the last
century Joseph Harris, retired mer-
chant, purchased the property, and
the silk worm craze at its height at
that time, Harris contracted the
fever and planted the opposite lot
with mulberry trees. After the mall
adv had subsidized he realized that
his fortune had taken wings and that
his expected crop of silk was an IL
lrsion. He passed into bankruptcy,
and the late Edgar Snowden, who up
tc his death in 1875 edited the Ga
zette, purchased the property. For
a long time it was known as the
"Snowden House.
A few years ago Mr.. Washington
acquired the property. The last pur-
chaser will utilize it as stated above.
