DEWEY'S VICTORY
By Mrs. Addle L. Deisen.
Dewey, on tho first of May,
Entered into Manilla Bay.
With his fleet so brave and true.
Floating our flag—tho Red. White and
Blue.
While the moon was shining bright.
The watchman called the hour of night;
Ail the Spaniards in slumber slept.
While our brave boys to duty kept.
Into tho channel, fearless and brave,
Olympia lead the line.
With Baltimore. Raleigh and Petrel,
Never fearing batteries or mines.
As he neared the hostile fleet.
He knew his voyage was near complete,
-While Cavite batteries bursted forth,
Olymphla never changed her course.
Tru© and steady, hand to hand.
Commodore Dewey gave command.
Gunners and mates to your post,
Ydnder lies the hostile host.
A few minutes later the battle began,
While Montojo's fleet lay in plan.
And their shot and shell fell like rain.
While our boys shouted "Remember
th* Maine."
Then Dewey quietly, as quiet could be.
Gave orders. "You may tire, Grldley,
when ready,"
Now, boys, watch the Admiral Montojo,
And give Reina Christina tho fatal
blow.
Suken and shattered is the Spanish
fleet.
Under our American sailors' feet;
Wpn by our noble commodore grand,
Dewey, from our free united land.
The battle is o'er, the victory is won
The Island is ours, lay down your guns;
Plant on that soil the flag most tme.
That floats over land and sea—the Red,
White and Blue.
