At the mouth of the st. Lawrence the
Thorn was taken by the Hind. a power
full English frigate, but five days later she
was recaptured by two French vessels.
Capt. Tucker and his crew were carried
to the island of st. Johns. from which
point they were to be sent to Halifax.
The officers of the Thorn were given a
boat and allowed to depart without
guard for Halifax, after giving a verbal
promise not 10 escape. Tucker and the
surgeon wished TO keep this promise. but
the rest determined TO sail for Boston in
stead of Halifax. The remonstrances OF
their commander did not avail and the
hazardous trip to Boston was safely made
in an open boat on the open sea.
Tucker Immediately wrote to the gov
ernor Of the province. Sir Andrew Ham
mond. explaining the part he had unwil-
lingIy taken in running away. His ex-
plantation appears to have been perfectly
satisfactory. fer he was directed TO re-
main on parole at Boston. He was later
exchanged and became again honorably
free
The reader will see that four years OF
such successful cruising on the sea must
have made Tucker wealthy. Such was
the case. In 1870 he moved TO Boston ana
bought a house in Fleet street, then the
fashionable part of the town. This house
was a three-story brick building with a
cupoia ana front yard. Inc mouse dis
appeared many years ago.
Spending His Money.
In Boston he took a prominent part in
the fashionable social life of the day. He
was rich. handsome and a splendid dancer.
But he did not know the proper use of
money. The government owed him much,
both in salary and for prizes taken, which
he could not collect and which has never.

operations. We may speak OF loan 10
military friend This friend asked for
lean of 5000. Instead OF $500. in spite OF
his wifes remonstrances. Tucker gave
him $500. The loan was to be paid In
two weeks.
Thirty-five years later he met his debtor
on the street and mentioned the latter 10
him. The rascal denied all knowledge OF
tho debt and did not even know his bene-
factor. When shown receipt in his own
handwriting, he at first denied even that.
Finally. he broke down and with tears Of
fered what restitution he was able 10
make. Tucker. deeply affected, refused
TO take a dollar of what belonged 10 him

Down came the eolors and the fight was
over. The captain was dead. and "a men
were killed and wounded.
Run OF Luck.
On lis next cruise Capt Tucker learned
that two valuable vessels were being
conveyed TO Halifax by three armed yes
seis. the Elizabeth. 70 guns. Observer. Is
and Howe. IA He az once set out 70 huns
them up He soon fell in with them and
sailed into their midst. He steersd for

said so. His own vessel. he said. was the
Torn. recently recapsured from the
Yankees.
The EGgIishrnaa entertained no suspl-
cions even when the Thorn got between
the Elizabeth and the Observer and fouied
the former He gave the orders necessary
TO clear the vessels. but by previous ar
rangement, the sailors did exactly the OPP
posite till the vessels were In contact.
Tucker now hauled down his British flag
and sent up the American. After the first
oroadside, % picked men boarded the El4-
aoefa and soon were in possession. Capt.
Tucker headed the boarders and engaged
In hand TO hand conflict with the Eng
lish captain. who aimed fearful blow az
the Yankees head. Tucker warded of the
stroke and in so doing broke his sword on
his opponents skull. The Englishman
died next day from the effects OF the
wound.
Both the Howe and Observer attempted
to interfere. bu; Tucker advised them 10

Elszabsth and one of the merchantmen ar
rived safely at colonial port. These two
short cruises paid well. One Of the ma

In all. Capt. Tucker made nine cruises
in the Thorn In the ninth. he was on,
nine days and took nine prizes worth &c.,
900. but the tenth trip proved disastrous.

The tariff question cannot be 10
nored in the present campaign for
the simple reason that the tariff
in force now is far from being a
satisfactory one in every respect
and the people do not want it.
Had the Wilson -Gorman law i'm
proved the condition Of the country
over the conditions that prevailed
prior to the Democratic party $
return to- power, we would admit
that the tariff question should be
eliminated from the political dis
cussions of the day; but we defy
any one to point out a single in
stance where the present tariff law
has been so beneficial to the people
that it ought not to be disturbed.
If for nothing else, the demand for
more revenue will alone bring the
question of altering the tariff be-
fore the people in the coming cleo
ton, to say nothing of the demand
of the laboring masses for better
protection against the cheap labor
Of Europe.

THE nomination of Robert f..
Lewis, of Greene County, as the
Republican candidate for Cover
nor has our approval. We were
for Cahoon as our first choice, but
as it was dccrccd that the first place
on the ticket must 90 elsewhere
than to southeast Missouri, the
the nominee will receive the same
hearty support from us that we
would have given had this section
Of the State received the prefer
ment. Mr.. Lewis is a good man
one on whom the entire party can
unite. He will no doubt make an
active campaign. and as the condi-
tons are favorable to Republican
success in Missouri this year, we
hope to sec him lead the party on
to victory in November.

If MIR. Bryan accepts the Popu-
lists nomination he must also ac-
cept their platform. While that
platform is in harmony with the
Democratic platform on the silver
question, the former takes a step
farther towards tiatism by demand
ing unlimited paper money. Let
the country once get started on the
road to cheap money and it will
not stop short of the precipicc of
financial ruin. The way to prevent
this, is to return the Republican
party to power.

The PopuIist circus which held
the boards in St. Louis all last
week, adjourned Saturday, after
nominating VIM. j. Bryan for
President. Thomas f. Watson, of
Alabama, was nominated for Vice
President. Thus the Democratic
and Populist parties have between
them one Presidential candidate
and each party has its own candi-
date for Vice President. This is
likely to cause considerable confu-
sion to both parties.
