Yes, he had sat near that particular spot many
times and listened TO that voice, now still, but
which seemed to call again There were the stitches
the deck covering she used to rub with her
loot while talking, sitting there they used TO do
in the old days when the company allowed him TO
take his wife with him on the run across The deck
seemed to slant away and roll from side TO SIDE
and he balanced himself to meet the roll Of the ship
The stiffness about him unbroken save by the
distant murmur OF the and the low voices OF the
men waiting forward for the work TO begin but he
heard nothing save the voice OF the past
He went into the deck house. There was the old
settee now without the red upholstered cushions
He remembered how many times he had sat there
in the evenings after the voyage was run. and how
for years they had chatted under the light Of the
saloon lamp when the passengers had all gone ashore
and the ship deserted by all save the crew
About him were the signs of wreck and ruin, and
he stood for some minutes gazing about the cabin

dead probably lost in the hurricane when the vessel
went into her last resting place. Far away Nassau
was a mound, grass grown and storm swept the
resting place OF the one who had made llie worth
living for him Soon the sand would bank up and
cover the old hull, and the Ions beach grass would
grow over il, blotting out all
He looked into deserted room. The door was
broken and hung slantwlse upon Its one rusty hinge
Then he stepped softly back into the middle OF the
saloon and listened a thousand little things
brought back memories, and he raised his head
oh God! the loneliness Of il ALL he cried.
In the stiffness he thought he heard the laughter
OF a womans voice No, it the sobbing and he
started 4 land crab scuttled across the floor OF
the cabin. making disageeabe rafting as Ii went
In the CHASTITY stiffness OF the lost ship thousand
sounds seemed TO fall upon his listening ears. He
saw the table set and the people sitting about It,

anguish He would not break up the ship In the
morning he would find some excuse 10 tell the mate

would not understand How could they-poor devils?
What had they known OF life. life as he had known
it, No he would weigh his anchor and sail away

had demanded Of him. He might kill himself, but
there were others dependent upon him for a living,
and he would not do a cOwardly thing would not
cause them suffering TO alleviate his own. He must
live Just and on to help the few who trusted
in his strength to provide for them. 1t pleas

now save the time when they used TO sit
there, she sewing upon some piece of
woman work and he porting over the chart
which held his course
His heart seemed bursting. The CHASTITY
wreck was awful,-it was the wreck of his
hopes. and he bowed his head and covered
his face with his hands as he sat upon the
edge of the bunk. The light was fading; but
he failed TO note 1t. Fifteen twenty, thirty,
minutes he sat there and the mate who had
returned with the rest of the gear left in the
boat, was searching for him The sun sank
below the sea before that officer broke into
the room and saw him sitting there
" IS getting too late TO do anything more
this evening, sir, said he with a petuant
tone OF complaint.
All right; 60 aboard. / II stay here awhile, -
said the Captain.
There was something in the seaman's face
as he looked up that caused the mate to
forget his temper at the delay. The men
must get their supper, sir he SAID quietly.
" Do you want a boat sent in for YOU later"
Good Lord, let me alonel" he cried
Go, Leave a boat for me. I'll row out
aboard myself when I'm ready"
The mate went forward, and the men fol-
lowed him in the small boat They went
aboard the schooner for the evening meal,
and afterward turned in for the night \

the mate, who had an idea. did not think it
OF enough real Importance 10 dwell upon it,
and the tropic night fell over the reef,
the haze deepcned and the darkness grew
intense.
In the dull heated quiet of the early
night the Captain sat upon the ships rail He

Crops are failure in this commu-

crop Of bolls on the cotton and that
is sll that can be counted. It is too
late now for rains. II we get third

small shower of rain which was very
much appreciated. It is thought the

There is unrest in Egypt, in India,
and in Morocco. Trouble is expected
in China ss soon as the aged and all
ing Empress Of that country passes
finally from the stage which she has
SO long dominated. Japan finds
Corea kind of Ireland on her hands
indispensable to her security, but
yielding and unwilling allegiance.
Russia is in the three Of anarchy and
famine. And there is, in point of
fact, hardly n country in the Old
World that has not some imminent
danger to deal with. But they find
time to be sorry for US over here.

that he intends to do this can be as
serted on authority so high as to be
beyond challenge. Mr.. Roosevelt
idea is that he can be of greater SER
vice to his state and to the United
States at large in the senate chamber
than he can anywhere else even as
boss of the Panama Canal" When
Mr. Roosevelt gets into the senate
and it is by no means improbable that
his ambition in that respect will be
only gratified-he may begin to learn
under competent instructors that
this is not an executive government. !"
But he will also find that Theodore
Roosevelt stripped of the appointing
power vested in the President of the
United States will be far less per-
sonsge than he is at present. It is
an open secret that he is not too much
loved on either side of the senate, and
there are some very doughty debates
among the Republicans in that body
who have old scores to settle with
him. He is likely to get . loss Of
which he is not a little in need.
There is. however, many q slip
between the cup and the lip, and if
the Democrats carry New York next
year, it may be that Mr.. Roosevelt
will have an opportunity to taste the
sweets of private life at least for q
season of much needed repose.

Roosevelt's Candidacy for the

A Washington special repeats, with
an air Of authority, the statement
that Mr.. Theodore Roosevelt has but
one ambition for his political future,
and that is to represent New York in
the United States Senate. His plan
is to announce himself as . candidate
for Senator Platt's seat after the
general election next year. The New

Some of the papers opposed to Mr..
Brewer for Governor are making fun
of him because he worked on the farm
barefooted when he was a boy. We
think this is creditable to him and
should be commended rather than
ridiculed. When he was boy hardly
in his teens his father died, leaving
nothing to the family except a small
farm, pillow horse, farming imple-
ments and good name. Standing
barefooted by the grave of his father
after the last clod had been thrown
in and the little mound over the grave
had been raised, he said to his weep
ing mother that he would work and
make her and his sisters and his
crippled brother living. He kept
his word faithfully, and though it
required that he work barefooted he
did so with cheerful heart and sup
ported his mother and her family and
gave the best education he could to
his sisters and crippled brother. He
studied law and though his education,
because of these early environments,
is not of a collegiate finish he has
risen to the first rank in the profess
sion. and unaided by any political
faction or ring or wealthy influence,
and opposed and tabbooed by some of
the large city dailies that enter the
state, his friends and supporters and
admirers have given . place in the
second primary, and hope to elect
him Governor of the state of Missis-
sippi. He despises and defies the
efforts of those who undertake to rid
icule his early environments. The
abuse that is heaped upon him does not
come from the plain, hard working,
law abiding people Of the state, but
from those who are controlled by
immense corporate wealth, whose
greed will cause them to heap their
abuse upon any and every body who
takes the side Of the plain people
against the plutocrats who are pulled
mp with inordfnate wealth, gotten By
questionable methods.
