Its officers and men are represented by citizens from State and Territory in the Union. as every one of the 386 Con- | gressional districts has a cadet at the naval academy, while the President appoints twenty additional cadets from the sons of naval officers. “The past half century has witnessed revolution in all things connected the navy. The wooden walls steel, The swelling sails have given way to the propelling power of steam, and “the man behind the gun” has become master of the situation. “While we do not number as many | ships as some of the other nations of the world, yet for its size our navy is the equal of any—and ship to ship, manned by American ~ officers and crew, it will never strike its colors. “The evolution of the American navy excites the admiration of the world, and its exploits during the recent Span- ish War has given it a stronger and broader hold than ever before. The : United States has become a world pow- | command | get her off failed | strong wind raised the waters and the i during | Francisco, er for good, and our navy is a bond for peace as well as an arm of protection to our people in foreign lands and our commerce on the seas. “When in May, 1900, during the Box- er war, an appeal came for help from the legations at Peking, China, our fleet of war vessels on the Asiatic sta- tion made up a detachment of marines and sailors, under command of Cap- tain B. H. McCalla, now admiral and commandant of this navy yard, and joined the relief column wi Admiral Seymour. You all remember how well they did their work and saved the for- cign legations from annihilation. Our naval officers and men won the highest praise from all, and the British admiral said of them: “Their post was usually in the advance guard, where their zeal and go was praised by all.” Again, last November, the prompt action of the captain of the U. Nashville in landing his troops at Colon, on the isthmus of Panama, saved the lives of many American citizens and prevented the destruction of the city. “It is, in my opinion, the duty of our Government, in the interests of peace and good order, to maintain a strong navy and man it with American citi- zens. It seems therefore eminently proper that we should assemble tor the purpose of congratulating the com- mandant of this navy yard, the naval architect, naval constructors and of- ficers that have directed the work, and the mechanics that have fashioned and builded this excellent vessel. “The name selected by the Navy De- partment—the Intrepid—is the third of the name in the navy to fly the Stars and Stripes. The first named was for- merly a Trivolitan ketch called the Mastico, that had been captured in 1803 by Lieutenant Stephen Decatur, after- ward Commodore Decatur, while in of the schooner Enterprise during the war that the United States waged against a set of pirates wha in- fested the Mediterrancan Sea and were making raids upon American com- merce. The United States frigate Phil- adelphia while in hot nursuit of a ves- sel that was running the blockade ran ! upon a reef near the harbor of Tripoli. The tide was falling and all efforts to A few days later a Tripolitans pulled the frigate off and towed her to anchorage under the guns of the fort. The work of destroying the Philadelphia that she might not become a part of the Tripolitan fleet was in- trusted to Lieutenant Decatur, who in command of the Mastico, with a picked volunteer crew, entered the harbor and successfully carried out the nlan and | escaped without the loss of a man. This achievement was pronounced by Lord Nelson to be ‘the most bold and dar- ing act of the age.’” The name of the Mastico was changed to the Intrepid. “The next of the name was built the '70's and was a steam armored ram, but did not win distinc- tion. | ““The third is the splendid vessel be- | fore you, now waiting the command ta glide into the waters of the bay and to be christened by Miss de Young, one of the fairest daughters of the Golden State. The Intrepid, bold, fearless and undaunted, may she long sail the seas as one of the schoolhouses of the American navy.” Chaplain McAlester front as the applause that greeted Perkins’ words died away. He uttered a short prayer, at the close of which the Intrepid, released by the customary mechanism, started toward the water. ! As she did so Miss Helen de Young, daughter of M. H. de Young of San gracefully christened the new ship. The first rivet was driven and elinched in the keel of the Intrepid on January 2last by Admiral B. H. McCalla, Mayor P. B. Lynch and President of the Chamber of Commerce Frank R. Dev- lin. The Intrepid is a sailing vessel. She will be propelled not by steam, but by sail power entirely. She is to be a training ship, and has been made a sailing ship in recognition of the doc- trine now generally conceded by ali naval officers, foreign as well as Ameri- can, that the best school for a twen- tieth century man-of-warsman is a sailing ship.
