CHIPS, THE CARPENTER,

"Chips," whom I knew for months
by no other name, was ship's carpenter
of the whaler Gazelle, of New Bedford.
/. He was twenty-siX years old, six feet
high, and rs strong as tree. He was
the favorite OF the ship-and no wonder.
He was tender and gentle, perhaps be-
cause he was strong; he was peaceful,
because he was powerful. And the soft
word which turneth away wrath, with
the gentle hand to soothe sufferer, are
often needed in the whale fisheries.
Most of the foremast hands of the
Gazelle were rough Portuguese lads,
from the Western islands, on their first
voyage. They were treated with coarse
contempt by the few American seamen
and by the officers.
The only man who was kind and pa
tient with the rude boys was Chips;
and he was never tired of showing them
or teaching them something of what he
knew. He was one of those unseltish
fellows who did not believe in keeping
. knowledge to themselves. He had
never been to sea before, but during the
first two years of this voyage he had
attended to so many things besides his
own easy work, that he was considered
as one OF the best and coolest whalesmen
aboard.
Although exempt from standing
watch, he had insisted on doing the
duty from the first day out. At night,
ii the weather was good, he would sit
on the main hatch in the center of a
ring of the Portuguese lads, and with
wonderful patienc8 teach them to make
sDlces and knots and TO speak English.
He never tired of doing this or any
other kindly thing for them. In the day
time ii there " as work for him at his
trade he sti had them around him, eX-
. planning everything as he sawed OF
planed, as if he wished to make them us
good carpenters as ne was himself.
On Sunday, when every one brought
his letters and pictures on deck, Chips
showed the only signs of sadness We
ever saw. He was the only one or
beard-except myself-who had neither
pictures or letters, neither face mol
word to remind him of home.
When the ship touched at some port
with postotfice and every one ran fol
letters, Chips remained aboard-hi
knew there was none for him. In ont
s of the boys albums he found picture
of an old " White-haired Woman-the lad
mother-and every Sunday afternoon h
Asked for that album, and always CAV
it back when he had turned and LOOKED
at that picture.
The ship had been two years out whel
first saw Chips. Through strange AM
unhappy circumstances | was afloat o.
the Indian ocean, in a small boat, whel
this New Bedford whaler hove in sight
and ran toward me. The first man t.
spring out in the mizzen chains, to hel
me aboard, was strong-handed Chip:
with tears of sympathy in his eyes. D
deck the captain met me with open han
and heart, and for eight months sale
with the whalemen, and took part IN tia
good and i'll that befell them.
Chips and were friends from the il
slant our hands struck. Shaking kane

Attention Democrats.

Don't fail to go to the polls on Tues
day and vote for Hancock, English and
Robertson, this is a duty every Demo-
crat owes to himself and to his country.
III ever there was time when a black
list should be kept for the benefit Of
posterity. now is the time when
it should be done. In it should
be printed in capital letters, the name
of every Democrat who fails to go to
the polls on this day, and help elect
Hancock, English and "Old Ed. Robert
son.

Gone Home.

On last Tuesday Deputy Sheriff Enoch
Latham, OF Cherokee county, Texas,
representing, as agent, the State of
Texas, by commission from Governor
Roberts, approved by Governor Wilt,
received from Sheriff Duson the body of
John Henry alias John Haynes, who on
the 20th of September last, stole from
Wiley Thompson, of Forest, Cherokee
county, Texas, the sum of $500.
All the money found and 500 adj
ditional was offered by Mr.. Thompson
for the arrest of the theft Sheriff Duson
captured $40 in currency and RENTED
to the officer who came after the prison
or the additional 800, us he considered
himself amply compensated by the 1910
received. The money was found in st.
Marys parish near Cote Blanche, where
Haynes had deposited it. He spent
some $500 in that parish before he came
to st. Landry in brlbing witnesses in a
criminal prosecution that was pending,
here against him before lie went to
Texas. Had Mr.. Thompson telegraphed
to Sheriff Duson instead of writing to
him, he could have caught the theft at
Vermillionville on the cars, and with
him $1,000 Of the money. A term in the
Texas penitentiary will learn Haynes a
lesson not soon to be forgotten.
A telegram to G. G. Dnson, Opelousas,
from Deputy Sheriff +. Latham, dated
Liberty, To. October 27th, 1880, says:
John Henry jumped from train at
Liberty. Do all you can for me. Advise
in the matter it you cam Z. Latham.
Later, same date. II have caught
