MODERN WARSHIPS
They Are Vastly More Than Mere
Fighting Machines.
LIKE WELL ORDERED CITIES.
Each One Has Its Own Police Force
and Its Court of Justice and Is ac
Complete as an Ocean Liner or an Up
to Date Hotel as a Living Place.
The modern warship is not only a
fighting machine, but. like the big
ocean liner, she may be compared with
the most up to dale hotel or even with
a well regulated commonwealth, ac
cording to Rear Admiral Cburlos D.
Sigsbee, U. S. N\. retired. The former
captain of the Maine has drawn a pic
ture of oue of Uncle Sam's typical
fighting craft from a new angle, and
he says:
"When one of these great battleships,
with her many people, puts out to sea
she must be self supporting from her
own supplies. She Is everything from
a village to a large city, according to
one capacity or another. She has her
own police force, her own courts of
justice and metes out her own punish
ment In no small degree she rewards
us well as punishes.
'Ts'orwuiiy, and counting to tue ut
termost corner and crevice, she is one
of the cleanest and tnost sanitary es
tablishments to be found anywhere.
Her spring cleaning Is administered
every day and before the earliest busy
hours of the forenoon. At her best
she is a beautiful souvenir of patrlot
| ism to the vision of the patriot At
her worst, after each coaling of soft
coal that she burns, we And her as
grimy everywhere as a coal pit In
her war paint her white sheen has de
parted somewhat, but her cleanliness
remains.
"Her people drink germlcss water
distilled on board from salt water over
the side. She has her own ice plant,
ice water, 'pipe line," cold storage
rooms, tubular lire mains and flushing
systems, hot and cold water supply
through pl]>es, and has bathtubs and
shower baths for either salt or fresh
water. She has no sewer gas, nor has
she the murderous mosquito that we
have on shore to usurp the iniquity of
our old bugaboo, the household sewer
gas. She has laundrymen and tailors,
stewards, cooks and attendants. Her
range of special artificers Is a long
one.
"Her hospital and pharmacy are up
to date, and even her canteen, while
on the dry order of canteens, possesses
some of the combined qualities of a
cigar store, notion counter, confection
ery and delicatessen store. With her
hardware, utensils and mechanical ad
juncts of many kinds she could stock
a gigantic hardware establishment on
shore. What hardware house keeps on
hand more than §1,000,000 worth of
supplies? _ _
"She has a telephone system for In
ternal use and a wireless outfit for ex
ternal communication. She Is heated
by steam and lighted by electricity and
has scores of electric motors. Her guns
are fired by electricity, and finally with
her powerful electric plant she could
provide the electric needs of a city of
more than 60,000 people.
"She harnesses and uses, with nice
application, tremendous forces of
steam, electricity and explosives. Her
satellites are scout vessels,' hospital
vessels, supply vessels, repair vessels,
dispatch vessels, tugs, destroyers and
submarines. When the battleship has
done what the ocean liner does she has
not yet begun her reserve of gigantic
accomplishments—her war specialties.
In her power of damage a battleship is
truly Infernal."
Admiral Slgsbee says that practically
all the enlisted men In the United
States navy are American born, which
is a great reversal of conditions that
existed before sails gave way to steam.
The present typical man-o'-war's man
is much younger than his prototype,
but each year Is Increasing the average
age, and this is a great advantage to
the navy.
The young men who enter the service
and pass through only one or more pe
riods of enlistment preferring civil life
thereafter, carry with them a sense of
discipline and a knowledge of mechan
ical niceties that have much influence
in shaping their lives and in populariz
ing the navy throughout the country.
It no longer Is the rule to seek men
only on the coast Every state is now
well represented by enlisted men, espe
cially those of the middle west.—New
York Times.
