PACIFIC SQUADRON WILL BEGIN VOYAGE MONDAY

AS EACH BATTLESHIP GETS JUST BEYOND THE FLAGSHIP IT WILL THUNDER GOODBY TO PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT AND THE WHOLE AMERICAN NATION ALL SHIPS WILL CREEP OUT IN INDIAN FASHION THE MAYFLOWER LEADING THE WAY.

Washington. Dec. .14. Sixteen battleships have gathered in Hampton loads for the most remarkable voyage in modern naval history. As a single fleet it will steam entirely around South America, making a voyage of 14.lt miles. Never before has so large a fleet of modern battleships made a voyage of eueh length. Other American ships have sailed around the Horn, but never such a fleet as this. The largest American fleet to make this trip in recent times was the squadron of Hear Admiral Bancroft Gheardi. who. with his flag flying from the Ualtinioie, let three other fighting

ships in ts:n Most thrilling was the voyage of the Oregon, which rushed from the Pacific to take a whack nt Spain. The nearest rival to this cruise is the voyage of the Russian admiral. Rojestvensky, who sailed to destruction at the hands of the Japs. He had fifteen righting ships and twelve torpedo boat destroyers. But of these only seven were battleships and not all of those were 1 class. The Russian fleet made a journey of 16,000 miles, but the voyage was broken by a long delay at 'Madagascar. Uncle Sam Prepared. If war should come within the next

four months. Uncle Sam would have in the Pacific a naval force to make any enemy trouble. Those sixteen ships carry 1HS guns, of which belong to the main batteries. There are sixteen Ki-inch guns and forty-eight 1-inch. But these sixteen lighters are not all. The sister ships Tennessee and Washington started around the Horn in October, and when Admiral Evans,' ships get into Pacific waters they will be joined by them and by the Maryland. Pennsylvania. Colorado and South Dakota. This will bring the total number of guns up to J.0."8. It will r.ake the strength of the main batteries o7U guns. May Go to Asia. Even if there is no war, it is improable that the people of the Atlantic seaboard will see the battleships for a long time. The extent of the preparations, so far as they have come to light, indicate that the voyage around the Horn is only the beginning. Quite possibly the greater part of this flet-t

will be left permanently in the Pacific. Perhaps it will go into Asiatic water and then complete its circumnavigation of the globe. The one sure thing -is that this great gathering of Uncle Sam's fighting ships constitutes a recognition of the

importance of the Pacinc. tor once a president from the eastern part of the country has been big enough to see over the Alleghenies and he has

beheld the great Pacific coast almost ; unprotected. 1 He has seen, too, the ocean beyond, ' upon which will be fought battles, if

Uncle Sam has to fight again. -There in the distant Philippines, in faraway Hawaii, are the points against which an enemy's first blows are sure to be delivered, and Tbeo. Roosevelt does not propose to leave those weak points to take care of themselves. If the constitution follows the flag, so do the battleships, according to T. R.'s way of thinking. National Event. When those sixteen mighty battleships leave Hampton Roads, December 16, it will be a big national event. President Roosevelt on the deck of the Mayflower, will say "delighted" many, many times, and the great guns 'will boom back "delighted" in tones of thunder. 'l'ke president will reach the fleet ia

Hampton Roads about S o'clock on the morning of December 1C, and as the Mayflower carries him within signaling distance, every ship will greet him with twenty-one guns the national salute. Then the flag officers and captains will go aboard the Mayfkn ?r and extend their greetings, after which the fleet will get under way. The Mayflower will lead the way until she reaches a point near the entrance cf the Roads. Then she will eer off to one side, allowing the fleet to pass. The battleships will pass in review in single column. The jackets, many of whom have never had a whiff of salt water before, will "man the rail," as the navy officers say. That is, they will all stand on deck at attention, crowding close to the rail, where the president can see them. As each battleship gets just beyond the Mayflower, it will thunder its fare well in twenty-one mighty peals to President Roosevelt and to the na

tion. Start ndian Fashion.

The battleships will start their voyage in Indian fashion, one after another, making a long single column of dashing white hulls, with the sombehues of their bristling guns and the great cloiids of black smoke standing out in marked contrast. But they are not likely to travel that way very far. This is to be a cruise of education, as well as a voyage to the Pacific, and "Bob" Evans will make those ships travel in all sorts of formation. Sometimes they will go in two columns of eight vessels each. Then again all sixteen will steam abreast. Even in the deepest darkness and in time fif fog "Bob" may change the formation, for each of those ships has been recently equipped with the wireless telephone, which enables all the captains to turn their helms instantaneously.

Kansas City, Dec. 14. An elope

ment and marriage on horseback in the middle of the Red river, directly followed hy a gunshot from ambush which wounded the bridegroom, was the experience of Joseph Anse, a Texas ranger, and Miss Annie Buntz, a Choctaw Indian girl. The bullet shattered Anse's left arm. Anse had courted the Indian maiden for six months. Clandestine meetings followed the objection of her father to Anse. lie did not want her to marry outside of her own race. Anse and the girl fled on horseback in the moonlight. A minister, waiting at the junction of the Red and Kimitia rivers, performed the ceremony in mid-stream. The party wheeled their horses to continue on their way when a rifle shot rang out and a bullet buzzed past the minister's face and pierced Anse's arm. The lifle was fired from the woods on the river bank. Quick as a flash the ranger whipped his revolver from his holster and fired into the woods near the spot where the flash was seen. Feaiful lest the would be asasfn might be one of the tribesmen, the bride tuggad at her husband's sleeve until he consented to flee from the spot on the gallop.

The bridal party galloped to the j nearest village wheue Anse received 1 surgical attention. 1
