ANNAPOLIS EXAMINATIONS.

WASHINGTON, June 27.-After con-
sultation with the Civil Service Com
mission, the Navy Department has de-
cided that candidates for admission to
the Naval Academy living at remote
distances from Annapolis may here
after be examined mentally by the Civil
Service Board nearest to their homes.
This decision was the outcome of COM
plants that many young men were I'M
able, without financial embarrassment,
to proceed to Annapolis for the eXamin-
atoms. All physical examinations, how
ever, with take place at Annapolis, and
candidates living in the Middle Atlantic
States will have their mental eXamina-
tions there.
One hundred and twenty young men
have been designated for the entrance
examinations by the President and
members of the House of Representa-
tives. They will be examined in August
Instead of September as heretofore.

THE SLEEKEST MAN..
to build railroads."
BY STRABO.

!
time [ ever heard of such tough
looking men being shipped to the
cape for such work. [ can't i'm
agine one of those chaps over
yonder with his soft hands doing
much with pick and shovel
mo, perhaps not, !" replied Joe in
an absent way, as he looked at me
through half closed eyes. Then
he extended his cigar case, pro-
posed a game Of euchre, and the
subject was dropped.
[ didn't claim that I was suspi-
cious of Joe, or that ] was dis
turbed by the gang in the steer
age. On the contrary, was per-
fectly easy in my mind in all re-
spects. In fact I had seen most
of the boxes brought aboard and
taken down to the strong room.
All the passengers must have
been aware of the treasure, but
there was little or no talk about
lit. I think the sleek, slick man
was the only one I heard say
anything about it. AS we sat
smoking and EARNING one day he
carelessly mentioned the treasure
and then wondered how much all
the gold and silver lost by ship
wreck would amount to. It is a
wide expanse of ocean between
cape and Venezuela, and at the
end of the week we had all settled
down into grooves and fallen into
monotonous routine.
Early one morning a sail was
sighted dead ahead, and almost
as soon as she had beer made out
it was seen that she had distress
flag flying. The news went over
the ship, and in a moment every
body was interested and anxious.
The ship in distress was a brig,
and. so far as any of us could
make out, she was all right allow
and aloft. If she hadn't sprung
leak, then it must be a case of
fever or mutiny, or perhaps she
had run short of water and pro-
visions. Joe stood beside me as
we bore down on the brig, and
although I twice asked him what
he thought about it, he didn't
seem to hear me. [ turned to
look at him as he closed his glass
and found smile on his face.
"You don't think it a joke, do
your" [ asked rather brusquely.
ooh no, no" he replied, smiling
and chuckling at the same time.
mo it's no joke and there will be
no laughing over it" His tones
were sarcastic, and for an instant
there was a look of triumph in
his eyes. Then he turned away,
and l gave the brig my attention.
We ran down within half a mile
of her before our engines were
stopped. Only three men we're
visible on her decks and she had
MT a boat in sight The trio
beckoned and motioned that we
should send a boat, and the cap
tain gave orders that one should
be lowered
''It will be done in case of
fever" he said, with all the
officers and most Of the men
down. and the surgeon was sent
off with the boat, which was in
charge of the second mate
Eight of our crew were thus
taken. The boat had pulled half
the distance to the brig when
we had something nearer to
home to attract attention. The
sleek, slick little Joe suddenly
held cooked revolver to the cap
tain's ear and marched him into
his stateroom. Fourteen of the

age, each armed with pistol and

QIC00n men IN 0aCl DOaC, ana as
soon as they had pulled around
and captured our yawl, one boat
load of the rascals came aboard the
Lily, and the steamer was work ed
down alongside the brig. The
sea was smooth and the fellows
could lash the crafts together
without fear of disaster.
We had been taken completely
by surprise and had no show.
They had the gold out and trans
ferred within an hour. It is to
the credit of the rascally gang to
say that they were under good
control and insulted no one.
After the gold was disposed of
they robbed the ship of lot Of
bedding and provisions, and at
the last the sleek, slick man came
down into the cabin to say few
words. He was smiling and good
natured and patted the children,
bowed to the ladies and waved
his hand to the men.
"My dear friends he said in
that soft, silky voice of his. Il
hope that I have given you no
trouble. Rather let me hope that
you will look upon it as an Incl
dent to break the monotony of the
voyage. [ do not wish to search
you one by one, like footpad or
a bushranger, but will trust to
your honesty to hand over your
money and jewels. [ have figured
on about the amount [ should get.
If [ get it, no one will be further
disturbed. Ii I don't get it, there
will be room aboard the brig for
most Of the ladies'
[ gave up half my possession,
and [ presume the other passen-
gers retained share as we'll, but
the money, watches, rings, brooch
es, ETC., laid on the table before
the pirate, had good round
value and seemed to satisfy
him. He swept everything into
a sack, babe us a fond adieu and
within ten minutes was sailing
away in the brig The engines
were disabled before they left, and
the crew of the mates boat
was sent back to us, and as no one
had been killed and we were fain
to think we had come eff fairly
we'll.
We lay rolling on the mid-ocean
for four days before the engineer
had made repairs, and by that
time the brig was several hundred
miles away. Even had we known
her course and position, it would
have availed nothing. We made
slow run for the remainder of
the voyage, and it was three
weeks before a man-of-war started
out to look for the pirate craft.
1t had been job put up in Vene-
zuela, and it had worked to per-
lection. It may be that the brig
returned to that coast and landed
and divided the swag, but as she
had a dozen different places to
choose from she had no fear of
capture. So far as [ have been
able to learn, she was never heard
from, though the search was kept
up for a year or more. There
was enough plumber to set each one
up handsomely, and I have al
ways thought Of Joe the slick one
as touring about in the finest raj
ment, drinking the rarest wines and
making himself a favorite when
ever he stopped for a week.

Written for The PRISON M irrOr.

On the passenger list OF the
ocean Lily" as she sailed from
Venezuela to San Francisco on
the 18th of May, 1897, was the
name of Joe Clennhan, an Irish
man, and there never was sleek
er. slicker man got into print. He
hadn't the sleek, slick way of II
hypocritical missionary or parson,
but it was a way of his own. He
was a dandy in figure and dress
and had the innocent figure of a
child, and was guileless, ingenu-
Gus, and seemed to know so little
of the world that you would
wonder where he had passed his
40 years Of life. He wanted to
make everybody's acquaintance
and make friends with ALL
You couldn't help but set him
down for a good fellow. Just look
at him and when you had listened
to his droll stories in the smoking
room, his songs in the cabin and
his fairy stories he told the chill
dren, you had to agree that he
was justly favorite.
No one seemed to know Joe
as he asked us to call him-be-
yond knowing that he lived up
the country on a big horse farm
and was worth half million dol
lars. It turned out that no
one really knew that, but had
taken his word for it. However,
it was no ones business to know
him. He was going back to the
gold fields after a bride, and all
the ladies aboard agreed that he
was a good catch and the girl, in
luck. Perhaps I got more cut Of
Mr.. Clennhan than an y other pas
senger. It was more and at the
same time it was less. In speak
ing Of his horse farm to me he
had been foolish enough to locate
it. 1t was far distant from Vene-
zuela, and it was in an out-of- the
way place, but it SO happened that
| had sheepherded and prospected
all over that range and knew his
story to be false He saw by my
looks that I knew it to be so, and
he at once turned the converse
ton and refused any further in
formation.
Women will lie when there is
no object, but men generally plan
to make a lie serve a purpose. [
tried to figure out why Joe should
lie. but the best guess [ could
make at it was that he wanted to
pass for a richer man than he was.
There was nothing bad about that,
and I didn't permit the falsehood
to open any breach between us.
When we came to shake our
selves down aboard. [ noticed that
there were a lot of rather tough
looking men among the steerage
passengers. 1t was explained that
they were going to the cape to
work on new railway. AS near
as | could size them up. they we're
all colonials and men more used
to horses than picks and shovels.
Your true navy or day laborer
would have sprawled in the shade
and slept and smoked and been
content. [ picked out dozen or
more of the so-called working men
who were nervous and uneasy, and
they often formed little groups
and seemed to hold much converse
in whispers This, however, was
only trifing incident. People
on shipboard have nothing to do
but gossip and observe. A man
who would not walk ten steps on
land to see captive eagle will
sit for an hour and watch the er-
ratio flight Of gull. think the

THE CHALLENGE SUPPRESSED

News of the suppression of the
Challenge, Comrade Wilshires paper,
which was moved from Los Angeles,
California to New York city re-
Gently has been received. When
application tor second class rates
was made in the New York postoffice
they were refused. Mailing the paper
without second class rates necessitat-
ed an expenditure of 10 times as much
as formerly and is ruinous.
This case is similar to that of Indus
trial Freedom when, in 1899, it was
moved from Edison, only three miles
away and refused entrance as second
class matter at Equality postoffice.
There seems to be no recourse in such
a case and so the name of this paper
was changed to Freedom. After a
time, over year, decision that In
dustrial Freedom was all right was
made by the postoffice department
and the name was changed back.
Comrade Wiltshire has got around
the postal authorities in the same
way, by issuing monthly magazine
and if it was thought that he could
be throttled, someone was badly
fooled.

THE ELECTION

The election reports in the capital
list papers, as usual, contain only the
returns of the republican and DEM
ocratic parties, but enough is ga
thered from them to know that the
working class have once more voted
for the wage system and have placed
the class in power which will use
every weapon at their command
against the working class, whose
votes elected them.
In New York, Pennsylvania, Ne
braska and several other states the
candidates of the republican party
were elected In Mississippi, Ken
lucky and Maryland the democrats
were successful, both of these parties
are the strongest supporters of the
wage system, both of the parties are
dominated and their policies controlled
by those who live on profits wrung
from the labor of the working class.
This is what the working class have
done. If properly organized what
might they not have done? The
votes which elected their enemies
could as surely elected their friends.
If every worker had voted for social
lists, at the next great strike all the
powers of government would have
been exerted for the benefit of the
workers, for the socialists are opposed
to the system under which'th cqpi-
talists are enabled to live off the fruits

surely change it.
Some day the working class will
cast such vote and from Their on they
will guarantee to themselves the full
product of their labor by retaining
in office members of their own class.

Give thanks for the divine system
which permits these things to be,
which allows some to live in luxury
created by others, the few to appro-

OUR FOURTH ANNIVERSARY

The fourth anniversary of the found

emergence from the binding exactions

economic development Ito colonists);

We have not been idle for the last
four years, as the reports of our SUI
perintendents on another page will
show, even though we have not pro-
crossed as rapidly as some would
wish. From a cash outlay of less than
$780, we have realized our living
for four years and have increased the
value of our property SO, 900, as the
latest invoice shows us to be worth"
about $3.50 in land and improve
ments, including machinery, etc.
Our path has not been rose-strewn;
there have been factional quarrels
from which it took a long time to re-
cover, and the spirit of personal dis
like thus engendered has not been an
aid to our progress; and we are not
yet entirely rid of this disagreeable
feature. But in spite OF all this we
have lived and prospered.
