When the ill-fated ships of Admiral Cervera'a lleet Kked their noes past Morro Castle in their derpcratc and theatrical attempt to eseapo from S in tiugo haibor, this gri.zltd old gunner's mate was engaged iu his usual tiek, that of shining up his 1.) inch pride. When the cry went up (hut the enemy uaa escaping acd the drums and bugles ut.d gongti hastily soundetl general ipurters, he gave a few Ouishin touches to tin- inti.zlc, then fiuiutlv took his si.Own in the turret. Presently turning to a )oing seaman gunner next to him be taid:j Charlie, I'll bet you a mouth's pay that I make a bstler shot at the dao beggars i than you. What d'ye say V" i Done," was the prompt reply. Ten j luiaut'H I titer the oil gunner's mate sipiitilcd his eye along the tight, dig-! ualed the man al the training levt r lo i ease off a little, took the ranizo frnm 1 1 , o olliitr in charue of the divi-ioi), then! gave the firing lanyard it tjuick jirk.i When the smoko lifted the ea'cr watch ers paw a great yawning hcle in the poll b ) of the Almirante Oit;endo. A cheer came from tho men in the turret, and the cl 1 veteran glanced tri umphantly toward the eeamun guuner. Tholattcr's turn soon en me. IhvOijuen do, battered and helpless, drifted ashore iu lUmes. Tho Oregon, accompanied by the Drooklyu, sped on after the ti set footed Colon. The lapid-fire batteries of both American phips rattled and shrieked after the fugitive. Tho 8-ineh kuus rumbled an unceasing chorus as they belched forth their steel shells, and occasionally a deeper roar from tke Fl inch monsters would give a mightier vol ume lo tho din. It was after one of the latter fehots that the forward turret of the Oregon echoed with a lousing cheer. Charlie, the young Eeamun gunner, had just dropped the firing lanyard front his hand, and it was Been that tho Colon's conning tower w a iu ruins. "Ho told me before he pulled the lanyaid that be would fetch it," exclaimed one of the gun's crew admiringly, ''und he did." These shots, absolutely marvelous un der tho circumstances, were fired by men representing tho to extremes of tho service. The old gunner's mate gained bis skill through years of experi ence; the teaman gunner, scarcely of age, was the product of a modern sys tem of training. Hut both were Ameri can guuiit r.J, aud that term means some thing theso days. THAI NINO VV YA.NKtlK Ol'N.NKKS. Kighty-six years ago Great 1'rituin, then as now one of the great powers of the eaith, discovered that Americans could wiu naval battles, but the English historians gravely decided that it wus, to use Hume's own words, "because of a secret art in gunnery !" How our gul- luut forefathers who manned the consti tution und tho I'uited States would have laughed ut that! They knew, ua we know today, that our ekill in gunnery Cjines I rout a system which bus as us keynote, one preguant word Practice ! Practice! When the torpedo boat Morris dioppcd iu at the Drooklyu navy yard on her way to Cuba several weeks ago, among tho di ll'o rout members of the crow who went ashore for a short ran via a youuj man, euiuoin-iacea una nitie-eyeii, una with a placid, culm enpres noil, such us might be worn by u youth ttu, lying the ology, lie was clad iu (he plclurctiiue uniform of the naval r-uilurs, nnd there was nothing in bis attire tr bearing to indicate that lie had, among his ellccts on bottrd, u medal won for expu t marks manship w ith great guns. He was a sea mini, hud graduated from the gunneiy school ut Washington, umt could plaeo a thirteen iiich-shell iu the vitals of un enemy's warship with tho accuracy of u Kough Kider lining a revolver. Tho young man had entered tho ser vice us nu apprentice when ho was scarcely 10. He early uttructed tho no lieu oi ills superior etlicors, who nro al ways on tho lockout for promising ma terial, nnd was sent, after learning li e duties of a sailor, to tho government gunnery school.
