Cabbage for the ConvIeis.

Little Rock, July 6.-At the re, cent meeting of the State Board of Penitentiary Commissioners Commissioner Guy B. Tucker insisted that the cOnvicts in the state penitentiary should begiven a better diet than they have heretofore been receiving. He wanted beef served to the pris- oners and also demanded that they be given a greater variety of vegetables. He stated at the meeting that the universal desire of the negro convicts was for cabbage. Some of the negro convicts, when told by Mir. Tucker that they would be given more beef in the future, said it was not beef they wanted, but cab bage.
 Cabbage, then, you shallhave, " said MT. Tucker.
 On the strength of his promise Mir. Tucker had the Penitentiary Board adopt a resolution in structing the superintendent to provide cabbages for the pris- OnerS.

back to life any of the 262 sailors who
met their doom In the early morning Of
February Is. 1898. But he did prove that
the horror OF the catastrophe had not
availed to spoil the morale of the Ameri-
can navy. and Bilfs GOODNESS and non-
chalant remark will be remembered as
long as men treasure examples of purest
bravery.
Through recommendation Of the Secre-
tary Of the Navy eight heroes Of the bat
tleship Indiana fire recently received their
just need Of credit for an act Of finest
nerve.
The Indiana lay at the League Island
navy yard, one Of the finest vessels in
Uncle Sans navy, representing an outlay
Of several millions Of dollars.
Fire started in the bunkers of the ship,
near which were stored some fifty tons of
powder. Had 1t not been for the bravery
Of these eight men not a plate of the ves-
sci would have remained whole.
While in the report of the Secretary of
the Navy the whole crew was commended
for its courage, especial mention was
made Of eight men who did the actual
deed of going into the magazine and car
rying out the loaded shells.
These were Charles A. Liestgang, chief
gunner's mate; E. Rowe, gunner's mate
Of the first class: ]. c. Bartunek. gun
ner's mate Of the second class; John L.
Grafton, gunner's mate of the third class.

on them the temperature gradually drop
ped to normal.
The men worked swiftly, and not one
flinched. And when 1t was all over and
grateful government expressed its admira-
ton for their devotion to duty every one
Of these heroes seemed surprised that SO
much was made of the act.
The habit of courage had become so In
grained by years Of custom that they had
ceased to consider bravery anything that
merited special comment. Cowardlce
would have been a terrible disgrace to the
crew, and something to be bitterly con-
demned, but heroism was not more than
was justly demanded of a man who drew
his pay from Uncle SANS Navy Depart
ment.
The disaster on the Georgia two months
ago resulted from the explosion OF one
| hundred and four pounds of smokeless
| powder in target practice off Barnstable.
OF those in the turret only one escaped
serious injury. This was Midshipman Lu-
| cone Frank Kimball, who received a
| slight burn on the left hand.
Within the death turret were deeds OF
| marked heroism. Cheerfully offering his
| life for those Of his superior officers, Chief
| Yeoman Orly Tagland sprang at Lieut..
Casper Goodrich, dashing that officer to
the deck and shielding him from the ter
| rife heat Of the explosion.
| Another sailor sacrificed his life. but
saved the ship. by~sprin2ing to the hatch
way leading to the magazine.
| Midshipman Kimball also contributed
conspicuous valor. He held his breath, and.
placing his cap over his face. went to the
rescue of his conn ades. He was able to
beat out the flames from the scraps of
| clothing tEus saving many who would
| otherwise have been burned to death.
| Apart from the disasters mentioned,
| there have be.n many other serious accl-
dents on board American warships, par
| ticularly in Tic last quarter of a century,
and many lives have been sacrificed. but
the horror OF each tragedy has been re-
lieved by heroism displayed by the men
Of the service.
One of the first and most serious acci-
dents was the explosion OF the powder
magazine on the warship Princeton Feb
ruary 28, 1915, during the vessels trial
trip. President Tyler and most OF his
cabinet were aboard. and Secretary OF
the Navy T. W. Gilmer and Secretary OF
State Abel P. Upshur were among those
killed.
Nine men on the Massachusetts were
killed by the explosion of an S-inch gun
in January, 1903. By the explosion Of a
12-inch gun on the Iowa three men were
killed, April 8. 1903 Just a year later
thirty three officers and men perished in
a turret on the Missouri through a flare
back" from a gun which exploded pow
der charge. The Kearsarge was the next
1906, two officers and five men were blown
to pieces In a gun turret.
/ Then came an overwhelming disaster.
In July, 1906, while the gunboat Benning
ton lay in the harbor at San Diego, Cal,
her boilers blew up, and as result sixty
six officers and men were either killed
outright or died from their injuries.

FAMOUS OLD MUSKETBARREL FENCE OF HISTORIC GEORGETOWN

On some Of the old barrels may yet
be seen the sights, but most of them
have been broken off by souvenir hunters,
who have also taken away many of the
top pieces. The two splendid old brick
and stone dwellings are occupied by the
families of Charles and Edward Daw,
sons of the man who built the historic
fence. a fence which brought forth one

It Is related that soon after the fence
was built young man declared that he
had seen soldier in continental uniform
examine the gun barrels In the dead hours
Of night. AS the young man was given
to imbibing a little too freely at times
the citizens refused to believe his story,
going on the supposition that he was
'seeing things" However. it was not
long before Substantial citizens likewise
began to see through the same glasses
as did the young man. Such reputable
citizens as Messrs. Dean. Stallings,
Dodge. Borer. Rittenhouse and others got
good looks at the continental ghost as
he appeared at midnight and made a care
full inspection of the gun barrels. The
gentlemen claimed that the ghost, or
whatever it was. acted just as II 1t was
looking for lost gun, examining closely
every barrel. Whenever an effort was

Every scheme possible was resorted to

Burning Thumbs
Rather than expose a LOW sailor to
danger of his life many a man went
through the awful experience of having
his thumb burned to the bone, and there
are old men today who can show stumps
they lost while standing to their Job and
protecting the comrade who was at their
mercy.

that this claim will go un-
disDuted More than a half century ago
there lived in Georgetown a lock and gun
smith named Reuben Daw, whose shop
was on NJ street in the business section.
Mr. Daw was a quiet and substantial
citizen. thoroughly honest. but with an
eye always open for picking up bar
gains" His large shop was packed with
all kinds of pistols, guns. knives, etc,
which he had bought at different times,
and many a trusty firearm bought from
him may now be found in the old homes
OF Georgetown. These old citizens will
say: Il bought that gun from Rube Daw
long before the war, and she's as good
and true as the day l bought it,
There are old citizens who will remem-
ber the armory established at Harpers
Ferry by the United States. Here were
made the first ech-loading rifles, which
proved rather tricky and dangerous
weapons. They were called the Hall
rifle. a name given in compliment to the
inventor. The gun was dangerous from
the fact that soldiers often forgot to
lower the e!ght-inch barrel, which worked
on a hinge. and when the rifle was dis
charged it generally carried of a few fin
gers of the soldier. Some OF these guns
carried balls eight to the pound. sure

barrel that the rifles soon went out OF
use. Other makes of guns were tunred
out at the arsenal to take the place of
the Hall rifles and these were called in
and stored.
II was in the spring of 1859 that John
Brown and his followers rented a small
farm near Harpers Ferry, where they
farmed. pretended to mine iron ore, and
old man Brown preached occasionally to
the negroes John Brown had heard
loo that a
ment of guns was to be mada from the
armory to San Francisco, and it was his
purposS to secure these guns If possible
to equip his small army When he was
