OUR NAVAL VESSELS. ft Is Extremely Hazardous and Trying Work, and Many Precautions "Are Necessary to Prevent Loss of Life During the Operation, , There is one phase of the ship life of ecarcely known to the layman and that can hardly be understood by him as he attractive cleanliness and meets her; neatly uniformed officers upon the spot-’ less upper deck, Not only are the parts of the ship in sight. kept-clean and frée: down, contracted spaces that never see tular compartments between the inner and outer skins of the ship, known technically as the ‘‘doyble bottom,’’ and other places that separate the magazines and various built up structures within the ship from the outer skin. These narrow-compartments are especially susceptible to dampness and rust, and in order that those who have the care of them may do their duty well and so prevent the decay of the ship a system of inspection has been devised, and the inspectors: mast be, under the naval regulations, conimissioned — officers. A-permanent board of inspection is formed upon each ship, which must consist of one engineer and two line officers. The duty of this board is periodically to make personal inspections of all the parts of the ship, examine everything critically, suggest remedies for any evils that may be found to exist and to report to the commanding officer, for transmission to the navy department, the condition of the vessel in detail. ‘ Uniforms are discarded while makifig these inepections, and clad in seamen’s. ordinary working suits these officers crawl upon all fours throughout the length of the bottom of the ship, wriggle snakelike through narrow openings and éxamine with their own eyes every inch of the surface of the thin steel plates. The paint of these compartments, softened by dampness in some places and by heat and the steam laden air of the boiler rooms in others, rubs off upon the working suits, and an hour’s crawling transforms the neat officer into a very sorry spectacle. In some modern’ navies this duty is performed: by the enlisted men, the officers being excused from it, but in our navy the feeling exists that an enlisted man should not be asked to go where an officer is not willing to lead. The result is Americans and the efficiency of the fleet is assured. Numerous precautions must be taken to avoid the risk of losing life while performing this duty, for it is attended with no little danger. The atmosphere of confined spaces entirely or partly closed for a considerable length of time becomes robbed of its oxygen in the formation of rust and is soon made unfit to sustain life. If. possible, such compartments are blown out with pure air led through a hose from. a blower duct and all manhole plates removed before being entered. A lighted candle is always carried by the itispecting officer upon his crawling tour. If the candle being extinguished, there is a deficiency of oxygen, and he will immediately seek the nearest opening leading from the compartment and leave it at once. Men are stationed at. places as near as possible to him, so that they may hear his voice and render immediate assistance in case of need: No one is. allowed to enter any confined space on: board ship without an uncovered light, although in addition a portable electric light is carried frequently to render the inspection more thorough. cers and men become so wedged between bulkheads and beams while. performing this duty as tomake it extremely difficult to remove them, and more than. one officer of the navy is upon the retired list today because of permanent injury to his health contracted while performing this arduous labor. Because.of the care exércised it is rare that a life is Jeast the rashness of a man proved fatal to him. One of the main boilers.of the cruiser Newark, while flagship of the south Atlantic station, having . been, tightly closed for a month, while empty, in order’to preserve it from deterioration, the coppersmith of, that vessel, an energetic, faithful man, thought its interior should be examined and, although warned repeatedly never to enter such a boiler without an open light, removed an upper manhole plate and crawled in upon the braces with an Ava, going into the boiler, and fo one -need, His dead body. was found half out . and half io the boiler manhole with: the electric light. still burmiing. brightly ‘within the boiler. He bad evidently ‘erawled in upon the braces,'felt a faint-, ‘nese creeping over him and had en-. consciousness just as life lay within looks upon the modern ship in all her? the residuum was unfit to breathe. A burns dimly or seems upon the point of . . It not infrequently happens that.offilost in this service, but in one case at»): eeotea iigat. «26 tol no one Bons ne Was stationed: to “assist bim in caso of déavored to regain the open air, but lost his reach, and so died of asphyxiation. The air in the boiler had been entirely robbed of its oxygen by the ‘iron ot the shell inthe formation of rust, and lighted candle was snuffed out immediately upon being thrust into the boiler, and this condition, prevailed until « lower manhole plate was removed, when the heavy gas ran out as water might, and the air within soon came to be quite pure. -No more vivid illustration of. the dangers to be encountered-in the care of ships afloat and the: preeautiens. necessary to be taken in thia duty could be given than thie incident, which shows that shot and shell and bursting steam pipes are not tbe only dangers that confront the officers and men of Unole Sam’s navy.—New York Sun.A.

Because.of the care exércised it is rare that a life is Jeast the rashness of a man proved fatal to him. One of the main boilers.of the cruiser Newark, while flagship of the south Atlantic station, having . been, tightly closed for a month, while empty, in order’to preserve it from deterioration, the coppersmith of, that vessel, an energetic, faithful man, thought its interior should be examined and, although warned repeatedly never to enter such a boiler without an open light, removed an upper manhole plate and crawled in upon the braces with an Ava, going into the boiler, and fo one -need, His dead body. was found half out . and half io the boiler manhole with: the electric light. still burmiing. brightly ‘within the boiler.
