we proceeded on our way, the castaways seeming
perfectly comfortable and c~ontented as soon as
each had secured a cigarette and a light. We
learned that they had been out to secure some of
the floating bananas and had loaded their boat
to the waters edge so that the moment the squall
struck they were capsized.
The next day we went to visit the famous Hope

A Serious Love Affair.

TT was not quite so serious as the title would
indicate. AS it happened right in our own
y family, l will give it just as it was told
one night in the family circle by one of the
participants, a jolly old bachelor Uncle, who
recalled with great pleasure this little cpl
sode of his youth, by way of interesting the group
of young people gathered about his chair. He
vouched for the absolute correctness of every de-
tail, and there were others of the older genera
ton sitting by, who declared they were eye wit
nesses of the scenes portrayed, and corroborated
his story. Said Uncle Harry:
Il will never forget the first visit | ever made
to the city. 1t was when Ned and | were little
chaps, about ten and twelve years of age. Never
mind about how long ago that was. Our father
had made up his mind to attend a Medical Con
vention which was to meet in Louisville, and he
was going to stop over for a few days visit to his
older brother, Edward.
Now Uncle Edward had two little boys, Buck
and Dacie, so father concluded to take Ned and me
along, as he said it was about time for us to
know each other. We were so excited over the
prospect of the visit that we could scarcely sleep
a wink at night for thinking of it.
AT last the day came for us to start; so dressed
In our best clothes, we drove with father to the
station some ten miles away. 1t was a clear,
bright morning in early spring, and the dew on
the grass seemed to sparkle like diamonds in the
early sunlight.
The trees were full of birds so glad to gel
nome from their Southern journey, that they
alled the air with music, till, suddenly, we heard

One night he took us to see a play. AS had
never been inside of a theater before in my life
it made a wonderful impression upon me. 1t was
one of those real blood and thunder plays, with
villains and robbers and all that sort of things.
1t was splendid, and Ned and | could not sleep
that night for thinking of it. l wanted to be a
villain the worst kind, and Ned wanted to be a
robber.
The next day when we were playing in the
barn, 1t struck me all at once, that we might have
a play ourselves. There was the shed and the
feed bins for the stage, and there was a loft and

steamers had run aground on il sand bar in the
middle of the bay and her nose was buried in
about twelve feet of mud. Her cargo was twenty
thousand punches of bananas taken aboard at Port
Limon and these were being thrown overheard
as fast as the crew could do it and there were
bananas floating all over the bay and a horde of
Kingston boatmen were picking them up. They
would pile their boats as high as they dared and
then taking a string of them in tow would pull
for the shore.
The greed of these boatmen led to a somewhat
Interesting adventure. Our ship and another Ham
burg freighter received orders to try and pull the
stranded ship out of the mud. They steamed out
into the bay. attached heavy steel cables to her
stern, dropped their anchors as far forward as
possible and while the stranded ship was putting
on all steam astern they put on all steam ahead
and also full steam upon the anchor engines in an
effort to wind up the anchor chains. In this man.
ner our ship pulled an inch and a quarter steel
cable in two without producing the least effect
upon the stranded ship.
While these preparations were going on we were
seeing the sights ashore but not caring to remain
on shore the second night and being out of photo

board. We went to the dock but the steamers tug
which was supposed to take us out was not there

aboard. Our ship lay . mile or two away in the
direction of the old town of Port Royal and after
some difficulty we found a Port Royal ferryman
who would put us aboard for the consideration of
three shillings each. His boat was a small sloop
that made regular trips across. When we set sail
the tropical night had fallen and it was as dark
as a moonless but clear night could be. We
had hardly cleared the land when one of those
sudden tropical squalls sprung up and was
just settling myself for a glorious sail, for there
seemed to be no danger, when we heard cries for
help. Now sailing before the wind and taking up

1t Does Seem Curious.

One of the curious things is that
the Prohibitionists and liquor inter-
ests always manage to hook up to-
gether when any practical temper
ance problem is up for solution and
oppose the same. High license, which
beyond all doubt would do more
practical good toward ameliorating
the liquor curse than anything else,
not excepting prohibition, is today
being opposed by both the liquor
trade and the Prohis. The Indiana
legislature were it not for this oppo-
sition, woald more than likely pass
such law and the same, in this city
for instance, would cut down the
number of saloons from fifty, as now
to ten or less. And these ten would
be conducted by men who would pre-
serve order and be more inclined to
obey the law. The Prohis and the
saloon men likewise always line UP
against the army canteen which re-
duces drinking to the minimum, pro
notes discipline and enables the sol
diers to save some money.-Peru

Should Be Decided on lderits.

1t is a reflection upon the intelli-
gence of the people of Indiana to ar
que that they are unwilling to provide
decent compensation for teachers ex
cept out of the states earnings from
the licensing of the liquor traffic
From the very earliest years of this
state the people of Indiana have
shown a proper appreciation of the
Importance of the dissemination of
learning as a factor in the develop
ment of citizenship worthy of re-
public. Out of the poverty and pri-
walton OF pioneer days the people of
this state made generous provision
for a common school system which
compares favorably with that of any
state in the union. If it is necessary
to raise the tax levy two or three
mills on the dollar in order to en-
sure living compensation for those
charged with the great responsibility
of instructing youth the people of In
diana are ready for the raise. The
thousand dollar license question
should be decided on its merits. 1t is
entirely unnecessary to link it with
the question of fair wages for teach
ers.-Marion Chronicle.

A Wonderful Mine.

Rudolph Keller showed us a Ger
man paper Saturday morning which
says that the profits of the wonder
full blue clay mine of Klingenberg,
Germany, paid all the. taxes of that
little city and left quite handsome
sum to be divided among the native
born citizens of the town the past
year. This blue clay mine is very
valuable and its product is shipped to
almost every part of the world. be-
cause nothing exactly like it is found
anywhere else.
This town is near where Mr.. Kel-
Ter was born and he has been there
often. The city authorities work thu
mine and all its profits over expenses
go to the city. 1t always pays ali
city expenses and there is often a
surplus to divide amongst the peo-
pie Only native born residents oil
the place are allowed to share in the
dividends Thousands of dollars have
been spent in adjacent towns in try
ing tc find this wonderful vein oil
clay, but it has never been found
outside of Klingenberg.
The town is in en- unproductive dis
trict and very few vegetables or any
thing else to eat can be produced
consequently the people depend upor
their labor and their wonderful min.
for a living.
