tinction of having. wn' first prla In
the annual target practice held thla

. to nota that the Paul Jonea la the first

proua target recora, ner visit nere is
unique, and one that will long be re
" membered by the people of Portland on
account of her great flahtlng crew' and
her admirable and efficient officers.
Every ship In the United States navy
lias held; target practice thla year. The
scheme la In keeping with the navy de
partment's endeavor to have our gun-
' nera rank highest In the world In point
or accuracy and rapidity or fire, as well
aa In other ways, and the splendid
avowing made this year by the ships
has evoked high praise from the offi
cials at Washington.

manded by Rear -Admiral Olass, was on
dered to Panama during the recent revo
lutlon between Panama and Colombia.

the shooting waa done during . the
' months of February and March. The
- target waa erected on a noat and It
also was Oxtl feet. The range waa fixed
and the shots were fired from a distance
" of 00 to 1,000 yards, with the secondary
battery.
' While no aotual comparison can be
'made between the soorea made thla
year and thoae of former years, on ao
count of the conditions not being such

Is known to warrant the assurance .that

waa a measured one. and allowed th -dV
partment th opportunity to calculate
correctly th actual scoring. .
The Interest manifested by th offi
cials at Waahlngton regarding the target
practice waa appropriately expreased
by Admiral Taylor, chief of the bureau
of navigation, in a letter to the officers
of the Paul Jones,' complimenting them
upon the- SDlendld showing made.
To Captain Davison considerable
credit Is due first. and principally for
the sight that he cleverly devised, and
which is of Inestimable' service in giv
ing the gunners the proper aim; and,
secondly for the careful and painstak
ing- manner In which he Instructs the
men In . his command. This sight de
vice was made on, board the Paul Jones
by her machinists, under Captain Davi
son's instructions, and experta have
pronounced It most useful. - The other
officers on the Paul Jones are Ensigns
EX H. Dodd and W. T. Conn. All three
officers are graduates of the naval acad
my at Annapolis, and held high rank
in their classes.
In the giving of trophies there was
