STORIES OF CAPTAIN LEARY
Interesting Incidents In the Career
of Guam's Ex-Governor.

Interesting Incidents In the Career
of Guam's Ex-Governor.
" It'll the death Of Captain Richard
+. Leary a unique figure passes from
the navy, says the New York Herald.
He was appointed to the Naval acade-
my from Maryland in 1860 and during
the civil war was attached to the block
aiding squadron at Charleston. He was
next heard Of prominently at Samoa
during the stirring times that culmi-
mated when the tornado Of 1899 de-
stroyed the German and American war
ships in those waters,
Captain Leary was then in command
of the Adams, a little vessel Of antique
type. The German flagship was the
Adler, much superior ship There
We're troubous times in Samoa, but the
nations represented by their warships
in those waters were supposed to main
tain neutral positions. The Adler one
day steamed past the Adams and salut-
ed. Strapped to the German ships
! mast was a native rebel chief Captain
Leary's ship did not return the salute,
and the German commander lowered a
boat and sent to learn the reason. Cap
tain Leary's reply was characteristic:
TEL your commander that the Unit
ed States does not salute any vessel en-
gagged in the slave trade
| Another time, learning that the Ger
man man-of-war had left the harbor to
lombard a fort on an island under
American control in support of Ger
many's candidate for the Samoan
chioftainship, Captain Leary got the
little Adams under way and arrived off
the island as the bombardment was
about to begin. Cleared for action, the
little vessel darted between the Ger
man ship and the shore, and not gun
was fired.
During the Spanish American war
Captain Leary commanded the San
Francisco in West Indian waters. He
afterward was appointed governor OF
Guam, which he ruled as he would his
ship. He required the natives to mar
ry, called on the men to perform Ger
tain amount of work each day and
even prescribed how much poultry
should be maintained by each family.
Captain Leary was regarded In tAf
navy as brave and efficient officer OF
great executive ability and was very
popular.

by any sort Of game was one time
when a wounded bird attacked and
tried to kill me.
II was boy then and went down to
a creek that flowed through my fathers
farm to watch for mink. 1t was early
in the evening and blue heron came
and sat within tempting gunshot. l
knew it would spoil my chances at
mink to shoot the bird. and didn't in
tend to do it, but, kidlike, l raised the
gun and took aim just to see how l
could kill it if | would l lowered the
gun and then raised it again. Every
time raised it | would touch the trig-
ger gently. After awhile | touched 1t
too hard the gun went off and | start

to catch the bird and started to do so
when it's bill shot out like a sledge

Lies Of the White Kind.

The whole fabric of social inter
course is interviewer with what would
be lies according to a strict code. Some
are pleasant tictions that deceive no
body. Most Of them have their genesis
in kindly, cheerful desire to avoid
giving pain. These polite untruths are
the lubricant of society. They wear
away the rough edges, take away the
sting out of uncomfortable facts. They
are the flower of courtesy, 1.-The pine

DAILY CHIME FOR M'KlNLEY
Bells to Keep on Ringing "Nearer,
My God, to Thee"

The city of Lincoln, Neb., recently
perfected plans for the erection OF a
memorial to President Mckinley in the
way of an elaborate set of Ginning
bells to be placed in the lately com
pleted st. Paul's Methodist church,
says the New York World. The order
for their manufacture was given 10 a
company in Troy, n. y. They are to
cost $4,000. The fund for their pur'
chase came as voluntary subscriptions
from the people of Lincoln, William D.
Bryan being one Of the subscribers.
The largest of the bells weighs al
even ton, and they range from that tt
one of 125 pounds. Each day the hymn
NEARER, My God, to Thee" Will be
chimed.

4 TALE OF TWO CITIES.
the Perils Of Living Near the Mex.
lean Boundary Line.


"SUne peculiar conditions prevail Mt
the twin cities of Nogales, Mexico,
and Nogales, Ariz," said the Detroiter,
who recently returned from a visit to
Mexico. 1.-The international boundary
line is formed by street that divides
the two towns, and the boundary
stakes are set out with a very nice
regard for technicalitles. There Is a
saloon there which has more than a
local reputation, and the proprietor Is
certainly an enterprising individual.
His saloon is located on the street d.
viding the two counties and at a point
where the dividing line is not clearly
defined. The patron Of this saloon
buys his drink in America, and, STEP
ping across the hall, he buys his cigar
In Mexico. In this way the proprietor
avoids the duty on imported cigars
and can provide his customers with
the best make at lower prices than
most of his competitors.
"They tell an amusing story about an
American who imbibed too much light
ing whisky at this saloon. When he
arrived at certain stage. he allowed
his prejudices to get the better Of him.
and, standing near the boundary line
of his own country, he heaped anathe
mas and hurled detiances at the people
across the border. A couple Of MeXi
can officers stood across the street al
most within reach Of the pugnacious
American, hoping that he would stroll
across into Mexico. He did get oTei
there after awhile. although the triI
was wholly unprecedented. During
harangue against Mexican institu
tons in general and the police in par
ticular he happened to lurch too faI
over to starboard and fell into Mexico
The alert ccxS promptly grabbed him
and, though he didn't get chance t.
take in the sights, he paid quite an ex
tended visit to the country he had Sc
eloquently maligned. "-Detrot Free

Ignorance, combined with a
soul-deep sense of injustice,

On the other hand, Greed,
combined with insolent presump-

1t is between these two ele-
ments that war is being waged,
while the law stands aside, pal

And it is all to what purpose?
TO what purpose indeed?
Simply that a small coterie of

controlling a public affair in
their own private way.
That. a great public question

This is not law; it is anarchy.

themselves, represented by the
miners on one hide and the mill

right, too, to settle it.

running BUSINESS MEN.

No better proof of the fact
that the success of the average
business man depends upon the
prosperity of the laboring man
could be furnished than the pit
iful appeal of the business men
of Pennsylvania to Gov. Stone to
do something to- save them from
ruin. They have formed an Or
ganization and sent a delegation
to the capital city to urge the
chief executive to immediate act
ion in calling an extra session of
the legislature to edo something"
Just what the 'something" may
be that will prove sufficient to
relieve the distress, nobody
seems to understand.
Every student of industrial
problems knows that prosperity
in every line of business depends
upon the prosperity Of the mass
es, but thousands of business
men have always been too busy
to have grasped this simple fact.
The bushes men of the Pennsyl-
vania coal region are learning it
by bitter experience. No sooner
did the workingman stop labor
ing than the business mems in
comes were cut short. At first
these men took a kindly Interest
in ending the strike ON ethical
grounds; but as the small
amount of money in the hands of
the miners became exhausted
and: food began to be shipped to
them direct the business stagna.
ton became so acute that the
business men are now clamoring
for a resumption of work on
their own account. And thus it
happens that the coal strike is
making clear the absolute de-
pendence of the merchant and
manufacturer upon the working
man. The workers are the mass
es and unless they are busy and
prosperous there is no real pros
perity for anybody.
