Tug Had Arrived.

Silently and with hardly the glim-

cratic candidate for governor. ana his
pnrty. The carriages and the party
to meet Mr.. Black were Mt Hart
mann IS hotel, but so quietly did the
tug approach that they were not
aware of mis- arrival until he was oil
shore.
A News reporter and young man
were OH the dock, however, awaiting
the tug and as It was necessary for
the candidate and his party to cross
the lighter before reaching the dock,
the reporter and his only campanion
succeeded in pushing q gang plank out
to the vessel. It was very dark and
the candidate had to feel his way. He
crossed the opening between the boat
and dock safely, however, and was
soon in the carriage being hurried up
Smith street. The p'ank over which
he walked was only foot wide and
the water beneath was about twenty
feet deep. A misstep would have
given him a drenching. Once MP town
there was light enough and Mr.. Black
began to feel safe once more.
