It would be great achievement for her to go through the Sues Canal, catch and sink Camara's squadron and return home to Sun Francisco by our new iMisseMMiou, Philippines, Ladroues aud Hawaii. 1 he house resolution annexing Hawaii passed the aeuate by a vote of 42 to 21 on Wednesday afternoon.

She, poor woman was a little dillatory and seemed to be worried, whereupon Sampson took the matter in hand aud relieved the admiral. He baa not appointed his successor and per haps will not. The queen can do that. She has a few more paper fleets. Six weeks ago the dry land naval critics declared the American navy was not up to date, that the Spanish war ships that were of European de sign and build were far ahead of our boats, and that we would be com pelled to begin anew and build on other lines. lie that as it may, last Sunday's work demonstrates that our old tubs are a good match for the European models even when they are manned by Europeans. President McKinley hasby proc lamation designated next Sunday as a day of thanksgiving and prayer to (iod who, in his inscrutable ways now leading our hosts upon the wa ters to unscathed triumph; now guiding them in a strange land through the dread shadows of death to success, even though at a fearful cost; now bearing them without ac cident or loss to far distant climes, has watched over nur cause anil brought nearer the suiit-ss of Ihe right and the attainment of ust and honorable isace. Itetails of Sundays naval fight at Santiago disclose the fact that the credit of capturing Ihe Colon belongs to the fast cruiser Brooklyn, Coin. Schley's fl.igship, and the Oregon. The Bnsiklyn's official speed record I is 21. i I knots, The Oregon's record is 10 71 knots. The Colon's record is Is tws n 21 and 22 knots. Hut it is probable that she waa not in as s r lee! condition as the American ships and that in the t0 mile race the Itro klyn actually headed her oil. The Oregon then coining up forced her to pull down her colors. Oregon la ns are Justly vain of our namesake. The Manila expedition reached its destination June H't. The soldiers left ship July 1. On the way over the expedition stopped long enough to capture the Lad rone Islands, a group about 1000 miles east of the Philippines. They are of volcanic origin, very fertile and produce su-j gar and tropical fruits. The Spanish governor thought the hostile shots of the Charleston were for a friendly aalute. The pigs si sin undeceived him aud he was taken on board and carrhsj away prisoner. His garrison of 54 soldiers with their officer are also prisoners.
