- CAPT. TAYLOR's GOOD-BY.
His Wife's Interpretation of the
Three Blasts From the Sinking
COIfmu.

His Wife's Interpretation of the
Three Blasts From the Sinking
COIima.
From the San Francisco Examiner.
The three blasts on the whistle of the
Colima given by Capt Taylor just be-
fore he disappeared under the waves have,
a singular significance for his grlef-stric-
ken wife. To her it is more than a fare
well salute to others-it is "a very last
good-by" to herself.
Capt and Mrs. Taylor were an unusually
devoted couple. Having no children, they
lived for each other. The only thing that
interfered with their happiness was his
going to sea. Like most of the wives OF
the Pacific Mail Companys captains, Mrs
Taylor seldom went down to the dock to
see her husband off on a voyage. When
the time came for him to leave on his
last voyage. Mrs. Taylor had a singular
feeling about letting him go. AT last, I'M
able to have him take leave of her at
their hotel she said she would go down
| to the dock The captain tried to dis
suade her, saying it would not be pleasant
| for them to part before strangers In
| spite of his reassurances, she could nor
| bear the idea of having him GO The
| captain had never seen her exhibit such
dread of their parting, and was puzzled
| at it.
At last he suggested that she should
/ give up going down to the dock and should
| go out to Point Lobos to wave a fare
well to him. He said she could watch
for him there and he would watch for
| her from the vessers deck. Then to
cheer her up he said he would give a
parting signal.
! I'm be sure to blow you three whis-
| ties, dear" he said as he was kissing her
good-by land that will be my farewell
The three whistles will be my very last
good-by."
Mrs Taylor went out to Point I,obos
as arranged. She saw the Colima steam
out the Golden Gate, heard the three good
by whistles. and watched the vessel until
it was mere speck on the horizon. Then
she went home with a heavy heart.
When Mrs. Taylor first received news
of the wreck of the Colima she was hone
| ful that the captain had been saved. Rut
directly she read in the paper of the lasr
three whistle signal he had given while
standing at his post of duty she broke
| down.
Later in the day she telephoned to the
Pacific Mail Office asking if the news
| paper accounts of that last signal were
true. When told they were she gave I'm
| all hope and became utterly Frustrated
She takes that last three blast signal -
a message from the captain TO herself
as his very last good-by"

ed the game. proposed to get up team
of United States senators. / simply want
ed TO get a list to see what sort of a team
l might organize Senator Gray of Della
ware became so enthusiastic on the sub
ject that he actually suggested that we
get up a game with a team composed of
members of the House, and let the pro-
ceeds go to some charitable institution.
OF course, 1 would not entertain such a
proposition seriously. but l managed TO
get together pretty good team. that is.
providing they all told the truth about
their playing ability"
In making up the team, Senator Smith
says he stationed his men in the positions
they played most frequently in their boy
hood days Senator Allen of Nebraska,
the populist, who made the longest speech
in the history of the Senate, was assigned
10 catch. as that was his home position
when attending the Upper Iowa university.
Senator Irby, who is a great lover of base
ball, was pitcher, because he once occu-
pied that position on a country team down
in South Carolina. Senator Gray, of Della
ware, was once first baseman for a Prince
ton team. He would make a mod
ell first baceman for he is the
tallest member of the Senate.
Senator German of Maryland who once
played second base on the famous National
club that had its home in the white lot,
back of the Presidents house, was of
course, stationed at second base Senator
Hill, of New York, says he used to play
third base for team at Elmira, so the in
field was completed, with the ex-
ception of short stop. Senator
Smith says he used to play that position
for little club in Delaware, so that
left only the outfeld to be provided for.
Senator Dubois was a Yale man, and SEN
ator Lodge of Massa chusetts and Wolcott
OF Colorado, were both players on a Har-
ward team, so they We're stationed in left.
center and right field respectively. Sena-
tor Hansbrough, who was a base ball re-
porter on San Francisco paper and Sem
ator Roach of North Dakota, who once
played on the Georgetown University
team were put down as substitutes.
Senator Smith said he had more fun dis
cussing the merits of his players and the
games they proposed to play, and it was
amusing how earnestly some of the sena-
tors talked of their performances on. 4
base ball field. For several weeks it was
daily topic of converse ton among tbe
base ball men of the Senate, when the
debates in the Senate chamber were IN
interesting.

FREE sILvER's EFFECT on WAGES
a New England Professor Points
Out the Result in Mexico.

From the New York Times.
A prominent professor in one of the big
universities of New England has written
to the. chamber Of commerce rgarding the
silver question as follows:
THE present free coinage craze is as old
as the days of Jack Cade. when his fol-
lowers hoped to bring on the millennium
by making the pint measure hold two
pints, and the two-penny loaf sell for a
penny His descendants to-day want 20
cents worth of silver to pass for a dollar
The sophistry is all the more apparent
when it is remembered that free silver
does noe mean an unlimited demand for
that metal, but only an unlimited supplv.
Mexico has free coinage of silver.
Mexico is on a silver basis.
THE wages in Mexico in mining and
agriculture vary from 10 to 80 cents a dax
in Mexican money, which is from to Il
cents in United States money.
The average for farm labor a dav in
Mexico is 20 cents in Mexican money. or
10 cents in United States money.
IF free silver can raise prices. WHY
does it not raise the prices Of wages in
Mexico?"
