from her sisters in Battloship Row,
approachable To none but those with
official business. and holding all her
own company from contact with

The great. grey giant OF battle,
built TO deal death to the enemy. but
who had turned on herself, was
thing of mystery, almost OF sus-
piCion. Her scared turret held q sec

ward room of the Tennessee solved

Her fatal turret today was JAM
med tight by the heat that accom-
panied the explosion. and all day her
mechanics worked over the spot
where their mates yesterday were
swept TO death by the blast OF T.

And 1t was a slight blast compar-

All through the night the menace
OF another coup of death hung over
tho Mississippi. Today It was re-
moved when her crew was able 10
pull the last gun charge from the
big 14-inCh rifle that can blow nm
ordinary vessel out OF the water at
ten miles.
Last night this charge still lay In
the gun, locked alone in the turret
and the ship went TO anchor outside

might touch It off to wreck the
crowded shoreline or other craft in

The Mississippi always has borne
the name Of n happy ship" ashore
and afloat members of her crew have
