steadily growing ever since. Time Is the
test of all things, and has set its seal of APP
proval on the Thrice-a-Wee World, which
is widely circulated in every State and Ter
ritOry of the Union, and wherever there are
people who can read our mother tongue.
This paper for the year 1903, will make
its news service, if possible, more extern
sive than ever. All events of importance,
no matter where they happen, are reported
accurately and promptly.
The subscriber, for only one dollar year
gets three papers every week and more
news and general reading than most great
dailies can furnish at five or six times the
price.
The Thrce-a-Week World is absolutely
fair in its political news. Partisan bias Is
never allowed to affect its news columns
and Democrat and Republican alike can
obtain IN its pages truthful accounts of all
the great political campaigns.
III addition to all the news, the Thrice-a-
Week World furnishes the best serial fiction.
elaborate market reports and other features
of interest
The Thrice-a-Week Worlds regular sub
scription price is only $1OO per year and
this pays for 156 papers. We offer this un-
equaled newspaper and The SMYRNA TIMES

Not That Sort.

A good story is told of one of the
Cape Town volunteers. He had been
at the front for a month or two and
was pretty well tired of the endless
travelling, lack of rations, etc. So that
he considered he was lucky when one
day he came across the general, who
was doing tour of inspection.

IN reply. 81 shall not give up man.
So go ahead and do Your worst"
Five minutes later there was a fight
on. The dictatcrs 700 men tried to
"rush' the steamer and half a dozen
were killed and Il score half cooked by
not steam. Then they posted them
selves behind the stone warehouses and
swept the steamers deck with their
rifle fire. The dictator then brought up
two pieces of cannon, and solid shot
tore away the bridge and pilot house
and bored their way through the smoke
stacks and upper cabins. When a score
of rounds had been fired Captain Jones
said to his chief officer:
"NIr Merwin, it's time to make a bit
of history. Let every man who can
stand on his legs fall in behind and
follow me-"
There were only nineteen. At a sig
nal from the captain they followed him
down the gang plank and up the mar
row street to where the guns were
posted. The dictator was there direct
ing the fire Before he could realize
what was afOot Captain Jones had
pulled him from his horse and was
shaking him down the street, while the
mates led the crew aga 1T the artil-
lerists and drove them III and upset
the guns. Not a man was lost in the
dash, and when the shelter of the
steamer was reached the dictator was
with them as a prisoner. Leaping up
on the shattered rail of the steamer,
Captain Jones faced the hundred SOL
diers bowling for his blood and said:
Listen to me- If another shot is
fired at this steamer I'll tie a hundred
pounds of iron to the feet of your die
tator and drop him Overboard!'
There was no more firing. A mob
gathered and hOwled and shrieked and
cursed, but it ended at that. At the
end of a couple of hours a military off
Ger came aboard under flag of truce
to see what terms could be made. He
was met at the gangway by Captain
Jones, while the dictator was sulking
in the cabin under the eyes of a sentry.
"You want your man, l suppOseY'

"Well, if you want him to run your

HOW CAPTAIN
JONES ROSE UP
By JOHN CAYLoR
Copyright, 1913, by t. C. Mcclure

Captain Thomas Jones of the Red y
steamship company in general and the
steamer Carib in particular had risen
to the position of second mate from
roustabout and from second mate to
chief officer and finally to captain, but
he wasn't looked upon as full blown
yet. He was humble looking man,
and he was not given to long speeches,
but for some reason the steamship com.
pany had an idea that should an cmer-
gency arise Captain Jones would rise 10
it and do them honor. If his crews
didn't agree with the officials of the
company it was because they were
hustled about so lively and worked SO
hard that they hadn't time to study
him. 1t was sufficient for them that he
always stuck by his mates, right Of
wrong, and he had a way of backing
them up with Delaying pins and other

hard wood substances that never left
the referee chance to call the affair a
draw
The Carib was in the South Ameri-
can trade When a steamer captain
goes into the South American trade he
is prepared for almost anything that
comes along. This includes typhOOns
and revolutions. Captain Jones had
met several typhoons. He had also
passed through several revolutions, and
yet his opportunity for rising to AN oc-
casion had not arrived The typhools
had found a stanch ship to deal with,
and the dictators and revolutiOnists
had been careful to keep their hands
off American property. In fact, no
matter which side was on top or how
many would be dictatOrs were in the
field, the whole boiling of them looked
for the Red X steamers to bring them
the necessary munitions of war, and to
Interfere with them was to kill. the
golden goose.
During a certain year, while the
Carib was making her trip to New
York and return, the people rose
against the dictator of one of the small
States The dictator meanwhile had
looted the treasury and got away to
France. Several new men wanted to
take his place, but after a few days of
stabbing and throat cutting the num-
Der of candidates was reduced to two,
and naturally enough they were the
worst of the lot. One of them held the
capital city and chief port as the Carib
Steamed in. and the other was fighting
to get in. The man who was in wanted
the help of the people to hold his job
and he was impressing everything that
could fire n gun. He didn't attempt to
meddle with the Carib at first beyond
declaring her cargo cOntraband of war
and figuring up what his share of the
loot would come to; but, catching seven
OF her crew ashore, he marched them
to the intrenchments, put gums in their
hands and gave them the CHOICE OF
Shooting mt the enemy or being shot
themselves. They began wasting his
urecious ammunition at once, but one
day proved to be a sufficiency for
them. and at night they deserted and
returned to the steamer.
