BOY SKIPPER.
Lad Pilots IL Ship
to Snfety

With death walking the deck by his side,
short-handed, officers dead or disabled with
fever, through seven weeks OF disaster, dan
ger and fear, a boy of sixteen years of age
performed an act requiring rare force of will
and character in the South seas recently.
His name was William Shotton, and he is
the son Of an English sailor. says the New
York Herald.
The Trafalgar. his ship. a four-masted
bark of LOO tons, sailed from Batavia on
Oct. %, 1896, with cargo of petroleum for
Melbourne, Australia. Fever broke out
among the crew even before the ship left
command devolved upon the next in author
ity, Mr. Roberts. But scarcely had the ship
weighed anchor when he, too, was stricken,
together with several other able-boded men,
succumbed to the fever. and on the same
day Officer Roberts leaped overheard in de-
lirium. The entire charge of the ship, there
upon, devolved upon Shotton. Luckily for all
and had received some instruction in navi
cation.
For time the winds were moderate. but
the fever still pursued its deadly course,
and on Dec z the cook died, the sixth vic
tim Of the disease Port Fairy, Australia,
was the first place sighted on the mainland,
but this was by no means the end of the
boy captains troubles. few days later
fearful storm broke out, and ShottOn was of
the opinion that nothing could be done but
run before it, since to attempt to withstand
it would almost certainly mean destruction
in the weakened state of the crew. All of
the crew who were half fit for duty Wege
ordered on deck and the necessary steps were
taken to put the ship in order to carry out
the decision Day and night the young cap
tain was on the bridge, giving his orders
amid the awful tempest with a GOODNESS and
calmness which would have moved many
wind moderated and the vessel was able to
resume it's journey to the Victoria coast.

"oUR LADY OF THE SHOWS

''OOh LADY OE THE SNOS -
Sir Wilfrid Laurier, the Dominion's
prime minister, and his minister of
marine and fisheries, Sir Louis Davies,
are in Washington with the understood
purpose of treating with the admins
tration for mutual concessions that will
promote the commercial intercourse of
nations" advisedly, for the premier
made it very plain to Mr.. Chamber
lain during the jubilee that Canada
Is no longer a province nor congerie of
tons aspirations and pride and indie
pendence. He put into prose what Kip
ing phrased in verse when the latter
wrote.

But mistress in my own
This new attitude of Canada, this
taking the initiative in international
matters that affect injuriously her in
forests, is confirmed in the statement
that neither the English embassy in
fee nor that of the secretary of the
colonies was advised of this visit of
the Canadian representatives. Here
after it must be understood that Can
ada will deal directly with other ma
tons, instead of first addressing Eng
land with a request for her interposi-
ton. The effect of this attitude will
be more and more apparent in our re-
lations with the Dominion as the years

An item sent out by one of the di-
vinity students who put in their spare
lime writing specials from the Zenith
Citv 10 confding metropolitan journals
states that it is feared a sergeant of
the Duluth police department has been
eaten by a moose. The corpus deficit
I'm the case is established by two brass
buttons found in the stomach of an
animal. whlch-the animal, of course
was about to be converted into steaks
and chops. If the story is true, and
the evidence of the two brass buttons
seems to be conclusive, it is time for
the state to withdraw it's protection
from this ferocious animal and to
cease pampering it's appetite. 1t is all
we'll enough to urge that moose are
scarce and that the state cannot get
along without the few that are left,
but policemen are scarce, too, and the
public cannot afford to feed every fas-
tfdious moose in the northern counties
on brass-buttoned guardians of the
law. If moose must have policemen,
they should eat them plain and not in
sist on brass buttons being served with
each order. OF course, policemen with
out brass buttons are like porterhouse
steak without mushrooms, but the
moose must learn to economic in these
hard times.
And another thing, the moose is pro-
tected most of the year. Policemen can
eat moose only a few days out of the
265 This eating ought to be mutual.
The open season for policemen ought
not to be more than thirty days at the
outside, say from the 1st of November
to the LIST of December. This would
not deprive the moose Of the old
fashioned Thanksgiving dinner of po-
liceman a la Duluth, garnished with
brass buttons and gold lace.
All of this is really necessary. If the
bloodthirsty moose is to be allowed to
pounce down upon the unsuspecting
officers of the law at any and all times,
other animals will be making objec-
tons and sending petitions to the game
warden. If the moose is to have po-
licemen for Sunday dinner, the deer
will insist on a captain of the fire de-
partment and the rabbit will feel hurt
if his table is not graced with a nicely
Drowned street cleaner, crisp and ap-
petizing. This is out of the question,
even if it were all, but then wolves
would probably express a preference
for members of the legislature, and
nothing would satisfy black bears but
major generals of the national guard,
and there are not enough major gen.
erals to go around.

roll on, and, meantime, 1t is a fact our
administrations must take into ac-
count.
Following our example Of erecting
tariff barriers merely to be used as
trading stock in getting reductions
from other countries in their taxation
of our products, housekeeping sort
of policy, Canada has also been pre-
pairing lot of trading stock. She has
provided a. reduction of % per cent in
her tariff to be snapped for equal re-
auctions in charges against her ex-
ports. She has laid 10 per cent tax
on all the gold dug out in her terri
tories, very largely by Americans She
holds in reserve an export duty on her
pine logs and on the spruce on which
the paper mills OF the Eastern states
already largely depend and upon which
they will have wholly to rely in very
few years Then she has that Paris
award that secures to her sealers the
right to take seal anywhere outside the
three-mile limit to which our jurisdic-
ton is limited.
This makes up list of very valua-
BILE trading stock with which the prime
minister can chatter with our admins
tration for less duties on coal and lum-
Der and fish and various other prod
ucts, and for modification of the vex-
atious immigration laws that now OBJ
struct the Canadians who wish to find
work in the States. The best item in
the budget, however, is the right OF
peIagic sealing. 1t does not amount to
much in value to Canada, but the dip
lomatfc history of our government dur
ing the last fifteen years shows how
valuable it is to interests here that are
very influential with the powers at
Washington. There is suit now
pending, brought by the government
against the North American CONNER
cial company to recover the rentals and
royalties due under the contract that
awarded that company the monopoly
of seal catching on the Pribyloff
islands and in Boring sea, to which the
company responds in counter claim
for damages for large amount be-
cause of the failure of the government
to secure the monopoly against in
fringement by Canadians. Between
the liability to respond in damages on
the one hand and the pressure from
the parties interested in the company
on the other, together with the chance
for escape from the humiliating posi-
ton in which we have been left at the
end of our efforts to monopolize open
sea sealing Mr.. Laurier will find his
power to prevent the last a very val
liable bit of trading stock, of which
he may be expected to make the best
possible use.

CnGer Arrest.

Cnder Arrest.
Special to the Globe.
BEMIDJI, Mimi, Nov. 9.-The fun
eral of Deputy Game Warden Charles
W'etseI, of Gull Lake, in this county,
was held here Sunday, under the di-
rcction of the coroner. His father, an
old man seventy-three years old, was
present, but there were no other re-
latives within reaching distance. The
inquest held on Friday resulted in
finding by the coroner's jury that Wet
sci came to his death by means of
knife wounds inflicted by three Indians,
Ka-Kay-Quash, Mah-Je-Ano-Quip and
the squaW of the latter, whose name
was unknown. A post mortem eXami-
nation was made of the body in the
forenoon of Friday by Drs. Newman
and Omich, and they found that he had
twelve different knife wounds in his
back and breast. His skull was crush
ed in above the forehead, and there was
a vicious wound on the top of the head
made by a knife 1t was easily un-
derstood from the position of the body
when found that the man had made
a bitter fight for his life against odds,
and that all the wounds given the body
were made before or at the instant of
death.
On Thursday Sheriff Nygaard left
here for Leech Lake agency to demand
of the agent or OVerSeer the bodies of
the four Indians present at the shoot
ing He found Agent Allen at Walker,
who considered it very unadvisable for
him to attempt to remove the wounded
Indians at present, and who satisfied
him also, that the squaw was dead and
buried. Agent Allen agreed with the
sheriff that as soon as it could be
safely permitted, he would deliver up
the two wounGsi Indians, if they con-
tinued to live This was satisfactory
to the sheriff, who returned yesterday
evening The sheriff finds that the
settlers of the county are anxious to
form a posse to go down to Cass lake
and take the men by force and hang
them, but he will do his utmost to re-
strain them.
