!. The stout, trim bark Annasona, owned
by Ciink & Sons, Greenock, Scotland is
at the Howard street pier in San Fran
cisco, deserted by all hands and with lit
tie Likelihood of getting another crew for
many weeks to come. All of this came
about thru a discovery by the crew that
the craft was, the Inflated Margaret B.
Carswell, whose crew, captain and mate

on a trip to South America by five Greeks
who signed articles under Scandinavian
names. The mutiny. the wholesale muir
der and story of awful crime at sea went
around the world at the time, and to this
Gay is a tradition among all old sailors.
Several times the name Of the craft has
been changed under succeeding owners
but her identity has always leaked out.
On this trip the Annasona sailed from
Antwerp with general cargo for San
Francisco. None of the crew knew who
or what she was. A seaman named Buck
ner of Melbourne, Australia, was the first
to discover on the ships bell, forward, the
real identity of the vessel He kept the
informal ton to himself until one day he
found another old sailor telling the mem
bers of the crew the history of the ship

1t took 1s3. days for passage from Ant

which were spent in heavy weather round

But Miss Kilrain showed q proper
spirit, and proceeded to form her in
timacies elsewhere; Miss Kilrain grew
quite intimate and friendly with cer-
tain of the girls.
And now her name had come up for
honorary membership in the Plato

But she surprised them. She did
come; she came tripping up on the
balls of her feet the very next Friday.
They heard her deprecating little
cough as she came UP the stairs. When

the playing, if grown. up people had
appeared the play stopped-short.
It was like that now--the silence

elect mounted the stairs to the Plato
MAN doorway.
Lofty attitudes are expected to be
chilly, and the elevation of the man
sard was as nothing to the mental
heights upon which Platonia was es-
tablished. Platonian welcome had an
added chilliness, beside, by reason of
it's Formally. H.
The new members hastily found
seats.
On a platform sat Minerva, en-
throned; no wonder, for she was a
senior as we'll as a president. The
lesser lights, on either side, it devel-
they looked coldly important. The
other Platonians sat around.
The society was asked to come to
order. The society came to order.
| There was no settling and resettling
and rustling and tardy subsidal. as in
the classroom, perhaps because the
young ladies, in this case, wanted the
order.
It went on, tho Miss MacLauren was
conscious that, for her part, she COM
pretended very little of what it was
all about, tho it sounded impressive.
You called it parliamentary ruling. To
an outsider this seemed almost to
mean the longest way round to an end
that everybody had seen from the be-
ginning. Parliamentary ruling also
seemed apt to lead it's followers into
paths unexpected even by them, from
which they did not know how to get
out, and it also led to revelations hui
initiating to new members.
The report of the treasurer was
called for. 1t showed a deficit.
Given with the initiation fees and
| dues from new members?" asked the
president.
| Even so.
sThen," said the president well
have to elect some more. Any new
names for nomination.
Names it seemed, were un7attering-
ly easy to supply, and were rapidly
put up and voted upon for nomination.
But suddenly Platonian was upon
her feet: she had been counting. The
membership was limited and they had
overstepped that limit. The nomina-
tons were unconstitutional.
/ The treasurer, at this, was upon her
4 feet reading from the constitution:
THE revenues of said society may be
increased only by payment Of dues by
new members "-she paused, and here
reminded them that the society was
in debt
Discussion waxed hot. A constitution
i had been looked upon as invulnerable
j At last a P1atonian arose. She call
ed attention to the fact that time was
passing, and moved that the matter be
tabled, and the society proceed with
the program for the day.

! Miss MacLauren, in spite of herself,
grew red; she had been talking about
the Platonians and their debates with
him quite recently. K
The effect of the mote upon the
Platonians was visible. A tremendous
f1uttering agitated the members. It
was a proposition calculated to agi-
tate them.
Rosalie was on that side opposed to
the matter. Why was obvious. for
Rosalie preferred to shine before boys,
and she would not shine in debate.
Hattie was warmly in favor it it,
for she was one who would shine.
Miss MacLauren did not express
herself, but when it came to the vote,
The ayes" had it.
/! Then, all at once, the Platonians
! became aware of Miss Kilrain, whom
they had momentarily forgotten Miss
kllrain was sitting in deprecating
silence, and the Platonians had sud-
silence of disapproval. She sat with
the air and the compressed lips of one
who could say much, but since her
opinion is not asked
But just before adjournment Miss
kllra1n's lips unclosed as she arose
alphabetically and begged permission
to address the chair. She then ac-
knoWledged her pleasure at the COM
pllment OF her membership, and ex-
pressed herself as gratified with the
earnestness with which some of the
members were regarding this volun-
tarlly chosen opportunity for self-im-
i proyement. These she was sorry to
see were in the minority; as for her
self, she must express disapproval of
10, ~ =
! gentlemen of the male high school. It
could but lead to frivolty and she was
sorry to see SO many in favor of it.
Young ladies whose minds are given
to boys and frivolity are not the ma
terlal of which to make literary So
ciety.
AS she spoke Miss Kilrain looked
steadily at two members sitting side by
4 side. Both had voted for the debate
and both had been seen by Miss Kill

She was blushing as she turned to go
in; She was laughing, too, to hide the
blush. And this was the elixir of
