R. R. Belknap, U. §. N,, (Commanding Officer of the Battle. ship Colorado.) What remarkable changes have taken place between,the first U. 8. 8. Colorado, bulilt in 1856, and the latest super-dréadnaught of the same name! As a general measure of size, the 3,400 tons displacement of the old frigate is grown nearly ten-fold; the old season oak hull is now of steel, of thick armored sides and many water- tight -compartments; full sail power has utterly disappeared and its lofty, wide spreading, slender spars are re- placed by tower like cage masts, topped by large fire control stations; the symmetrical tracery of standing and running rigging is now represent- ed by the bristling, knobby and odd placed radio antennae. Down below in the old frigate, rect- angular boilers of copper furnished steam at only 25 pounds pressure to a thumping cumbersome, slow-moving horizontal réciprocating engine, which by means of a single screw drove the ship at 10 knots at best, where now ofl-burning, tubular steel boilers gen- erate 290 pounds steam pressure for the delicately balanced turbines, ad- justerd to the thousandth of am inch which, without the least tremor of vi- bration and with scarce a sigh of sound, spin at about 2100 revolutions a minute, generating alternating elec- tric current which by a twelfth reduc- tion turns four screw propellers 171 revolutions for a shipspeed of 21 knots. For {llumination, oil lamps and ean- dles are retained only for emergency, should electric light fail, and the pres- ent sunlike searchlight had no like in the frigate’s days. In the day's work, the shrill pipe and hoarse voice of the Bos'n's mates passing the word along the open sweep of docks is all but replaced by speaking tubes, telephone, and‘ other instruments, electrical or mechanical, for transmitting communications to scores of separated spaces all through the ship. And at meal times, while navy beans still hold their own, sait pork, the venerable salt horse, plum duff, and hard tack, have given place to refrigerated meat, fresh vegetables, baker's bread, pie and ice cream. Of all changes, however, the great- est is in the kind of demands made upon the crew and officers. In the firigate Colorado, the yards were hoisted and braced about, the sails werei reefed and furled, the anchor weighed, the boats rowed and hoisted the ship steered, and stores whipped on board—all by hand. Handling sail, besides making strong bodies, taught eye, hand and brain to work nimbly together, In stormy weather a sea- man aloft at a dizzy height could work with both hands and exert his full strength, while holding on by his knees or even, in some incredible way, by a grip with his belly. In muscle and win in practised familiarity and dextrous skill, and in observant eye and ready resourcefulness, the square yard sailor was an athlete, but he had a contempt for machinery and of any- thing savoring of “Science.” Seaman- ship was an art, to him the finest of all arts, beyond expounding or im- proving by books. In contrast, most of the demands NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, TUESDAY, RELIGION A GREAT NEED DECLARES JUSTICE TAFT The Neoessity of Spiritual Help and Oonsolation Very Important in Present Crisis, Boston, Aug. 28.—The need of re- ligion in the present crisis is stressed by Chief Justice William H. Taft in a statement issued by the Unitarian News Service in connection with an- nouncement of the thirtieth biennial meeting of the General Unitarian Con- ference, of which the chlef justice is presidept. The meeting is to be held September 11-16 at New Haven, Conn,, in the buildings of Yale University, in conjunction with the annual Ministers Institute and chapter convention of the Unitarian Laymen's League. ““Honest doubts in respect to the or- thodox creeds,” says the statement of the chief justice, “should not be per- mitted to weaken the influence of re- ligion or to engender intertia in the maintenance of religion and of the church. I feel as if Unitarianism in view of the discussiéns in our sister churches has become/ more and #hore important in furnishing a basis for re- ligious inspiration. Such a eonference as that the Unitarlans will hold in New Haven I doubt not can be made most ugeful in the present criss.” Other speakers to participate in the Unitarian meeting are: Bishop Fran- cis J. McConnell of Plttsburgh, of the Methodist Episcopal church; Miss Grace Abbott, chief of the United States children's bureau, and Dr. Wil- liam P, Shriver of the Presbyterian board of home missions.

ETC. for power in the modern battleship Colorado are met by machinery, Where formerly two helmsmen, or four in"stormy weather, handled a spoked steering wheel, to move the tiller by means of rawhide ropes, there is now no wheel at all, the mod- ern steers-man, instead, with one hand pushing an electric control handle right, left, or amidships, with equal ease in any weather, causing electric and oil motors, by means of heavy thread transmission, to move the | rudder accordingly. An electric wind- | lass below decks inside armor lifts the 10-ton anchors with ease and quickness; two large electric cranes hoist and swing the boats out or in and handle other weights and stores too heavy for the small derricks and winches installed at various points {along the ship's sides; while most of thhe boats themselves, more than twice as large as of old, are gasoline- motor driven. To serve the guns, the old fash- | ioned power boy, shell whip, hand rammer, and draining tackles have been superseded by powerful electric contrivances. Exertion of human strength must, of course, be still re- quired here and there in minor way, but mostly by individuals, seldom by masses of men, as formerly was com- mon in hoisting topsails, heaving 'round the capstan to weigh anchor, or otherwise for a “heavy drag.” In- stead, now a high degree of technical knowledge and skill is needed in many | specialties, to control and use the nu- merous power appliances correctly and keep them in condition reliable for service Yet, although athletic qualities are no longer needed for work aloft, a heaithy body is essential to the healthy mind and cheerful spirit need- ed for contentment and efficiency. The | active, open-air, often strenuous con- ditiens of naval life in all weathers and all climates, both need and tend to make a strong as well as sound | { body, but as many of the specialties | involve long hours below decks, and | as ship life is at best confining, the| modern naval routine pays eonsider- | able attention to physical tralnlnl’.! exercise, and recreation, in order to| foster and maintain that combination | of proficiency, attention to physical | training, exercise and recreation in order to foster and maintain that com- | bination of proficiency, .attention, fi-| | delity responsiveness, initiative, re. | sourcefullness, courage, endurance, and recuperative power, summed up in the term morale.
