UR1NG the nrst wool : of
Juno of each year , the
quaint little city of Ann
apolis , Maryland , enjoys
a degree of prominence
in the eyes of the people
of the entire country un
rivaled by that regularly
accorded to any other community of
the hlzo. The explanation Is not far
to seek. The historic town at the
Junction of the Severn river and
Chesapeake bay is the scat of the
United States Naval academy , and
this "first week of summer" is the
climax of the year at Uncle Sara'a
great training school.
Primarily , of course , "Juno week"
at the naval academy is significant
of those varied festivities , social and
athletic , which always characterize
the commencement season at a great
seat of learning. From that stand
point the crowning \\eok of the
year at the naval academy IB not
so different from the correspond
ing Interval at Yale , Harvard , Cor
nell or any other of the big col
leges , save that the military and
nautical character of the Institu
tion , the discipline , the abundance
of gold braid and other charac
teristics tend to make the wind-up
of the school year at Annapolis
a rather more showy function
than it is anywhere else , with the
possible exception of the United
States Military academy at West
Point.
However , the commencement
exercises arc but an incident of
the "Juno week" program at Ann
apolis. Indeed there have been
years when the graduating class
of futiiro admirals received their
diplomas in February , and yet
"Juno week'1 lost nothing of Ita
Importance in consequence of the
elimination of the graduation feature. Over
shadowing the commencement is the fact that this
Is the season of the year set apart for the annual
Inspection by the official board of visitors , and in
deed the seven days of strenuous activity is often
referred to as "Visitors' week" rather than as
"Juno week , " arid It is more correct In several
respects , one being found in the circumstance that
"Juno week" often begins In May.
In the Interpretation of the friends and relatives
of the l.'OOO young men in training for officers' com
missions at Annapolis , "Visitors' week" is synony
mous with a season set apart for their edification
and amusement , and this personal application of
Ihe term is readily understandable when one sees
the town full to overflowing with proud parents ,
sisters , relatives and sweethearts of the midship
men the fair sex predominating by a tremendous
majority. Such is the influx that the limited hotel
and boarding house accommodations are fully en
gaged months In advance , and many visitors are
obliged to travel by trolley to Washington or Bal
timore each night for sleeping quarters. At
tracted by the navy's greatest spectacle , this is
the ono season of the year above all others chosen
by everybody interested in the "middies" collec-

lively or Individually to pay a visit to their pro
teges and the casual onlooker might readily sup
pose that the merry round of hops and parades
and ceremonies had been designed especially for
the edification of these well-wishers.
As a matter of fact , however , the succession of
drills , exercises , sham battles , displays of seaman
ship and other practical demonstrations that
crowd this strenuous week are for the benefit of
the official board of visitors less than a-dozen
men who In their plain civilian attire are some
what overshadowed by the officers that escort
them brave in raiment of blue broadcloth or
white duck , liberally bespattered with gold In
signia. The board of visitors is appointed each
year by the president of the United States for
the specific purpose of conducting a thorough In
spection of the naval academy and Investigation of
Its methods of training and making recommenda
tions as to needed changes In the curriculum , etc.
Consequently , the student body at the great naval
school Is put through all its paces In order to af
ford the investigators object lessons at first hand
as to the methods and equipment of the academy
and the results attained In the training of young
men as officers of Uncle's Sam's sea service.
or arduous spectacles In which the
"middles" participate during this busy
week have their compensations in the
social features of the joyous season
The .first class gives a gorman to which
Invitations are eagerly Bought by the
Klrl visitors , and the festivities of the
week c'oso with n farewell ball that Is
the crownluc uicnsuro of a memorable
season , and incldnntully allows all the
offlcorfi-to-bo to exchange a final goodby
with the girls who will bo left behind
when on the following morning the
young tars sail away on the battleships
that are to servo as floating school
rooms during a practise crulao that will
continue tluouguout the summer.
In the drills and Hlmm battles of this
spectacular week the young men at
Annapolis appear successively In drill as en
gineers , Infantrymen and artillerymen and they
likewise demonstrate their ability to handle boats
under oars , sail and steam. Torpedo , mine and
gun drills are Included In the varied program , whllo
saber combats , fencing boutn and small arm target
practise demonstrate the qualifications of the young
men to execute as well as give an order. Thla
year , for the first time , the midshipmen will make
their summer cruise on battleships Instead of on
cruisers and monitors , such as have previously
been utilized for such voyages.

SHIPS WITH A RECORD
The word Dreadnought has passed into the cur
rent coin of the language in a manner that the
name of no other warship over did , the Dunleo
Courier says.
The statesman and the man in the street alike
talk glibly of Dreadnoughts in referring to the
latest type of battleship.
When the Terrible or the King Edward repro-
Bcntud the last word In naval construction their
names did not become household words in the
same way.
Of course , there was then no naval scare no
general demand for a licet to cope with Ger
many.
It is interesting to recall the fact that the pres
ent Dreadnought is the seventh ship hearing that
nurne which has served in the British navy. Her
Immediate predecessor is at present in the hands
of the breakers. When she was completed 31
years ago eho was Justly regarded as the perfec
tion of naval science. She was never called upon
to defend her country in battle , but she was once
In grave peril of destruction.
On that terrible day In Juno , 1803 , when the
Victoria was rnmmed by the Camperdown in the
course of the maneuvers oft Tripoli and Admiral
Tryon , 22 officers and 330 men were lost , the
Dreadnought , with n crow of 450 man , nairowly
escaped n similar fato. It was only by the sldll of
Captain Moore , her commander , that a collision
with the battleship Nile was avoided.
After being in commission for a quarter of n
century , the Dreadnought , along with some hun
dred and fifty other ships , was struck off the ac
tive list by that "courageous stroke of the pen"
EO much applauded at the Mme. Along with sev
eral others she was sent to the Kyles of Hute to
nwait a purchaser. Las year Fho was put up for
auction and cold to bo broken up. And now this
gallant wat vessel , at ono tlmo the prldo of the
Ilrltlsh fleet , lies In the River Bubble at Preston ,
her framework being riven asunder and thrown
on the scrap heap.
The fifth Dreadnought was ono of the old wood
en walls that encircled our shores a century ago.
She fought with Nelson , and helped him to win
the glorious victory at Trafalgar. After her was
named the Seamen's hospital nt Greenwich.
The name of Nelson is also associated with
that of the fourth Dreadnought , for It was on
board this vessel that young Horatio received hla
training In seamanship. Hut the fourth Dread
nought belongs by right not to Nelson , but to another -
other old sea dog whom wo have every reason
to admlro. Admiral BoKcawen was nlclu.umed "Old
Dreadnought , " from th ? first ship ho commanded
and from his fearless courngo. In 1744 , when In

The third Dreadnought was built in the days
of William , prince of Orango. She wont through
the warn of Queen Anne's reign and ended her
life in GoorRe II.'s tlmo. Her predecessor was I
built by Charles II. and had a long career. She

When the Spanish armada was destroyed n
Dreadnought had n hand in the fighting , and
fully justified her namo. The first Dreadnought
was then under command of Capt. George Beeston.
Before the armada however , Ehe had boon as
sociated with the name of a greater naval here
than Beeston. Drake took her with him when ho
sot out lo "slngo the king of Spain's beard , " and
slu did her share In burning the Spanish licet at
Cadiz. Under the command of Captain Fonner
sbo was with Drake again at Corunna after the
armada had boon shattered. She saw Froblshcr
