Entered the Naval Academy _ Just Before the Civil War Began, Rear-Admiral Robley D, Evans is six- fy-two years old to-day, and in con- Bequence he has been placed on the retired list of the United States Navy. | The navy law which caused the re tlrement of the veteran sea fighter ts/ explicit, and says that a man of the Rear-Admiral’s age 1s unfit for service. The retirement of the Rear Admiral is not @ great event in the routine of the Navy Department, but it Is regretted | by friends and officers and men in the navy, hundreds of whom have sent per- sonal messages to the Rear Admiral. He will also receive a letter from Pregi- dent Roosevelt, but all these things will be unofficial, Rear-Admiral Evans, his wife and daughters went to Lake Mohonk soon | after he arrived East from California, where he was stricken with gout and|/ theumatism after piloting the Pacific fleet around the Horn, | There is no man in the United States | Navy who has more friends and admir- ers than ‘Fighting Bob’ Evans. There &re British officers who have com- manded armored fleets, but not one | of them has ever taken his ships more than 1,600 miles from home, The Brit- ish Admirals have manoeuvred their fleets as if in battle, and then back to home ports, A Remarkable Record, Poar-Admiral Evans, however, took Ais fleet more than /2,000 miles from home port, put them through manoeu- vree and then went on for 2,000 more miles. He was born in Virginia tn 1846 and during his boyhood he broke colts, shot Yabbits and attended the country achoo!s, He entered the naval academy in 86), and in 1861, when the war broke out, his other, who had no notion that ner son should risk the dangers of actual war, sent in his resignation without hia knowledge. The resignation was accepted before he knew anythiig about it, Bob had been a dutiful son, bdut this was tov m and he had the resignation withd. The name “Fighting Bob" affixed it- self to him because of his brusque promptness when in command of the Yorktown in the harbor of Valparaiso, Chili, in: 1891. Admiral Well and Happy.
