his hard, ill-used boyhood, cabin boy

hood, spent in unremitting toll in all
parts Of the world; of the various ships
he had commanded, in each of which
he had been expected to use less coal,
less paint, fewer provisions and to go
with smaller crews than in the last.
He thought Of the blackguards he had
had to command as crews, and the
trouble he had had with them, and the
old sailor proverb rose to his lips: ITO
live hard, work hard, die hard, and go
to hell after all would be too damned
hard" Well, he'd not had much fun

find out what it all meant. Anyway,
he had always done his best for his

VALUABLE DOG MAD.

Roaming About Near Chicago.
CHICAGO, Oct. S-Rev. M. E. Erz's
$1,000 dog Is loose in the woods north
Of Montrose boulevard and west of
Lincoln avenue.
Savage from hunger, the huge St.
Bernard had defed all attempts to CAP
cCme near eating up Detective De Celle,
Of the town hall police station.
Capt Schuettler has ordered the
woods surrounded by policemen, and
will send squad with instructions to
bring in the $4,000 beast or die in the
attempt.
When the dog disappeared from the
rectory Of St. Matthias Catholic
church, Ainslie and Western avenues,
Capt. Schuettler put all his available
detectives on the trail. Officer de Celle
has a touch of Sherlock Holmes blood
in him. He got a microscopes it is
said, but modestly denied by Mr.. De
Celle-and, crawling on his hands and
knees in the road for a mile and half
traced the dogs footsteps to the woods.
Rain then obliterated the tracks, but
yesterday De Celle returned to the
woods and after a few hours search
got sight of the dog.
The next minute De Celle was climb
ing an eishty-foot tree. The So 900 dog
showed unm1StakaDl6 signs OF an In
tention to devour the sleuth. In the
course Of an hour De Celle returned to
earth, the dog having skunk away to a
cavern under some fallen trees Cau-
tiously advancing the detective peered
into the opening and said softly,
Come, doggie!
The doggie came. and De Celle had
barely time to shin up another tree,
losing part Of one trouser leg as he
drew 1t out OF reach. He says he
would have given a couple of dollars

If the brute had been a 81 cur instead
or $4,000 prize winner. He didn't dare
to shoot as it was.
After another wait of an hour or so
DE Celle came down, but he steered
clear of the cavern and sprinted to
the Sheffield avenue police station,
where he told Capt Schuettler of his
adventures.
The captain ordered a large force Of
policemen to the woods, piloted by De
Celle. The officers surrounded the cav
ern. while De Celle again toyed with
fate by approaching the opening and
calling in his sweetest accent to the
wild beast within
There was no response for moment,
and De Celle stuck his head into the
cavern, when, with an awful roar the
dog charged. De Celle and the entire
squad of officers climbed trees like a
shot-this part of the affair is denied
publicly, but privately admitted-where
they remained until darkness settled
over the woods.

FAST EMPHASIZES.

The call for fast battleships is being voiced by some of the engineering and mechanical papers. It seems that Chief Engineer Melville wished to have the maximum eighteen knots in the case of three big fighters just author ized. His idea has been or may be overruled, however. The navy depart ment does not see the need of making the ships any faster than the craft of practically the same sort which are now in commission, and which are sup posed to be about as speedy vessels as any nation could send cut for heavy work in battle. But the adminlstra- tion will err if it does not raise the speed limit to eighteen knots. The English government now places its technical faith in the favorable issue of the next great war solely in speed for battleships. The Canopus class of vessels are being rushed along to give England, especially in the Mediterra- mean, unequalled ships of their class in ;he greatest number. These eighteen knot giants, it has been figured out, are required primarily for their speed qualities Does the United States need no fast battleships? How far is it, say, not from San Francisco to Ha- waii or the Philippines, but from Fort ress Monroe to Boston or New Or leans?

RIGHT FROM THE SHOULDER.

That was a. hitting speech of Senator Morgan's in which he de- nounced the tactics of the opponents ot Hawaiian annexation. It was by all odds the most impressive speech of the senate series relative to the New lands resolutions. MT. Morgan clear ly proved that annexation is no longer mere question of optional policy for congress to determin at it's leisure but an imperative war measure which cannot be delayed without offending the sentiment and imperilling the in terests of the country. The dominant note of MT. Morgan's splendid effort found expression when, addressing himself to the little band of senatoria, fiilibusterers, he said:
 When you return to your constitu- ents, gentlemen, and meet the father of one of these sons who have gone to Manila, and you tell him that you ob- structed by fiilibustering tactics the paragraph of a law that would make 1t legal for them to stop in Hawaii on their return with their wounds or their sickness and find shelter in the bosom of that hospitable and splendid people, that father will spurn you as not being his representative or the representative of the true American spirit"
 That statement presents the central truth underlying our national relations with Hawaii Annexation will provide stopping place midway in the Pacific for American soldiers passing to and from the Philippines; it will establish a safe shelter for the troop ships and naval vessels now engaged in adjust ing the new problems which our gov ernment has assumed in the far east and above all, it will secure an outpost from which American influence will exercise a controlling power in the dawning revolution in the commerce of the western ocean. The man who attempts to defeat the consummation of that splendid project is neither a sound nor a wise statesman, and, as Senator Morgan aptly declares, he will be repudiated by the American people:
