A h-ndlnv feature (F the Jamestown exposition, which celebrates the three hundredth anulrersary of English settlement of America, Is the naval and maritime display In which the principal nations of the whole world tgke "art. Warships of all kinds, from the uouster flghtlug vessels to subtnaril sud lln: - ill«iiatch boats, may be oh served tn thle display, but It (bought visitors would be luterested not only to see representatives of the navies of the world lying peacefully at anchor, but to witness some of the ships tn action as though netuall! gn .-'st lu hostile oiwratlons and combat to the death. As Hampton Roads was the wene ..f one of the most noted contests In modern nrval warfare—the battle between the Mrrrtmac gnd Mon! tor In the civil war—this engagement whs chosen us the one, as far as [ tlcable. to be reproduced. Tbe I’nitail States government set a pert f10.000 Of Ita aiprupriatlon for exblblta and build mgs In order that an educational spectacle of this kind might be given on the very spot where the original light occurred and In order that it might be repeated at proper Intervals during tbe season. The same famous contest Is made the subject of a cycloramlc production to be witnessed on the Trail tbe Jamestown Midway, lu this spectacle the buttle U presented with tbe utmost realism—cannon are seen It Hon. tbe crack and roar of the guns are deafening, and every movement of the ships is In harmony with tbe mao' authentic records ns to the operation'

of tbe two ironclads daring the UN toric contest. Just at the climax t’..r curtain falls, (caving tbe audience to determine which was victor, as this Ia subject which has always been In There are people still living In the .'icinlty of Hampton Hoads who roue tuber toe terrible days of March X and 9. IWti. as vividly as though tbe events of tb-.se dnj s occurred bat yesterday. The bravest of them risked tbe flying missiles of death and weal to the shores of Hamilton Bonds to witness the Yngngement which waa to become so famous. Indeed, at one time daring the tattle both ships approached jlbln ulout sno v nnls of shore, so that the land forces pr.rtlrlpnted hi the fighting. The great pier* the government has constructed at tbe exposition grounds extend out over the water for more than half a mile and thus enable tue visitor to walk directly over where the Moultor ami Merriraae at one part of the engngement were In combat. It la said that this very spot was repeatedly shelled by the land I cilleries of the Federal forces. Tbe Monitor was the first of • class, of naval vessels designated aa monitor* and was dedgned and built for the United States government by John Ericsson In 1901 and 1902. He adopted as the most essential feature of It* construction tbe revolving gun turret devised by the American Inventor. Theodore Buggies Tlmliy. The superiority of the sen lower of the Confederacy nt th? t-cgtmilng of the civil war made It ne<e**ury for tbe Federal government to exert Itself In making effectual President Lincoln's blockade of souther:, ports. For this reason tbe Monitor was harried to Hampton Beads even before the usual government test bad been made In order that she might cope with the Menizcac. which the Confederates bad been bonding at tbe Norfolk nary yard. Tbe Merrlmac was first on tbe scene and had already done a great deal of damage to tbe Federal fleet In tbe rtciolty when the Monitor arrived on March 9 and engaged her tn battle. This fight ended tbe day of wooden navies. The Merrlmac was destroyed by tbe Confederates on the evacuation of Norfolk. Tbe Monitor sank during a gale In 1802. Tbe Merrimac's anchor has been preserved and may now be aeeu

at tbe erpoaitkm.
