him soundly when he returned and thon
forgave him, for he saw that there was
good in tho boy. He sent him TO Canisius
college, and there tho good Jesuit fathers
gave him thorough education.
When he was graduated at 1G, no re-
turned TO the orphan asylum, having no
other homo. There he went to work in
the printing department of the protectory
and learned the printers trade. Two
years later he struck out for himself and
went west One day he drifted into River

This he edited for two years and sold for
an even $4,000. Leaving Riverside, he
wandered west, and ono day stopped in

THE LADY MAYORESS.

As Sir John Voce Moore London's s new

presiding over the Mansion House and
wearing the title of lady mayoress falls to
his only daughter, Mrs King Farlow. 1t
is many years since London town has seen

VULCAN is A SUCCESS.
NAVY NEEDS MORE REPAIR SHIPS OF
THE SAME KIND.

Some of the Good work Done by the
Great Floating Machine shop which
Has Been Sent to Rescue the Abnn-
doned Maria Teresa.
The prominent part which the vul-
can has been taking in the efforts to
rescue the elusive Maria Teresa reminds
us of the fact that the United States
navy is the only one possessing a ship
like the Vulcan. Uncle Sam has had a
repair ship but short time, We would
not have had this one had 1t not been
for the persistenoy with which Chief
Engineer Melville urged its need.
Soon after war with Spain had been
declared and war fund of $50, 900, 900
voted by congress Mr.. Melville asked
the naval board to equip two repair
ships. In spite Of the practically unlim-
tied amount of funds available the naval
board declined to spend comparative
ly small sum in this way, and it was
only by using all his influence that the
chief engineer of the navy was able to
have one repair ship equipped.
This ship was the Vulcan. Before her
transformation she was the merchant
steamer Chatham. When she entered
the navy, she was taken to the Boston
navy yard, and there wonderful change
was affected. Things were put into heI
stanch steel hull which never hoated
above keel before. She was equipped
as floating machine shop and foundry.
Then she was manned by some Of the
most expert machinists and naval con.
structors in the country. Men who held
responsible and high salaried positions
in private life volunteered to ship on
the Vulcan. Mr., Ira Harris, who has
been general manager of big iron works
in Kansas City and Chicago and who il
graduate Of Annapolis, re.entered the
service and was given charge of the
Vulcan. 1t was Captain Harris who re-
