LANE SAYS THAT FERN
DEFEATED HIM HONORABLY

''I don It believe many of the reports
circulated that my defeat was due to
harmful influence of Mr.. Chilling
worth s on voters, or to the row IN the
convention, nor do I blame any of my
friends for my defeat. was defeated
honorably and certainly would rather
have been defeated so than by trading,
and then losing.
GAS to Mr.. Dwight's statement, 1
think he was childish in the attitude
assumed by him. Why should 1 be
selected for his revenge because some
one else affronted him7"

"Some of my friends are looking up
data in various precincts in regard to
a recount, but as far as l am concerned
/ know nothing about it," was the
statement made by John Lane, defeated
Republican candidate for Mayor, yester-
day afternoon.
"While I am naturally disappointed
at being defeated, still do not think
that the party, by having control OF
the Legislature and the Board of Su-
pervisors, is so badly off, and it is in
a position to do much for the country.
Affairs are thus in safe hands.

HEARD HAIL At SEA
AND STOPPED THE SHIP
BUT FOUND NOTHING
Queer Incident of the CharIestons Cruise With
Crew of Green Hands--Voyage
Down Stormy One.

With six feet of green-erested water
pouring over the foreeastle and surging
across the intervening space to the
quarterback and burying that from
view at intervals for days, with half of
the crew seasiek, riding through dense
bank of fog and four days. storm, it
was little wonder that the officers and
crew of the U. s. S. Charleston were
gladdened at the sight of Honolulu yes
terday forenoon, after an eleven day
trip from Bremerton navy yard. There
was little time for pleasure on that voy-
cruiser tied up at the naval wharf than
big heaps of coal were dumped down on
the dock and officers and crew prepared
TO take in a thousand tons of it. By
night the ship and the men were clad
in coal dust, but today coaling will be
finished, and the vessel viii be spick
and span again on Monday.
The Charleston left Bremerton Octo-
Der 20 and almost Immediately passed
into dense fog and that night had
to steam for Port Townsend where she
remained day and half. Then came
a rain which dispersed the fog, and the
cruiser started again for Honolulu. The
storm blew into a gale and the Charles
ton pitched and plunged and the wind
blew at such a rate that the rain seemed
to be driven horizontally. 1t was a
miserable time, for almost the entire
crew is green. Many of the men had
never been to sea before, at least to
any extent, and the officers had a hard
time getting them into shape to perform
their duties. Having had an expert
enced crew before for nearly threeI
years, the contrast was exasperating.
About three days ago a young blue
jacket was taken i'll and his case dag
nosed as appendicitis. He grew worse
and on Thursday, Captain Knapp de-
.cided to give the boy the best chance
for his life and an operation ashore by |
pushing the vessel ahead. The cruiser
was sent along at her best lieks and |
she arrived here yesterday morning at |
10 clock instead of at 4 in the after
noon. The boy was sent to the Queens |
hospital on arrival.
On Thursday night while the Charles
ton was speeding on under bright |
moonlight, and while the officers on the
quarterback were chatting, there was '
slight commotior and one of the sailors I
on watch came running to the officer of
the deck with the information that he |
and another man on watch had distinct
ly heard some one hail from the sea:
''Ship ahoyi" The voice appeared to
have come from the quarter. The men
were so sure of the voice and its diree-
tion that the matter was reported to
the executive officer and the vessel was
at once headed about, the searchlights
were opened up and the surface of the
sea swept back and forth. For three
quarters of an hour the search was
but not a trace did the {
ships company find of boat or person,

MARES NEST
Of POLITICS
A Ridiculous Scheme to Do
Fern Out of His
Majority.

The Bulletin yesterday with big
display of headlines announced that
there was one more chance to elect
Lane. The "chance' was asserted on
lican leaders, who claimed that they
had found seven men who were depriv-
ed of their civil rights and were there
fore not entitled to register, yet who
had registered. It was also claimed
that these seven were all Democrats.
"We are still working on the matter, J"
the Republican leader continued, ''and
| if we can find but two more similar
cases, and can prove that they voted
for Joe Fern, then Lane will have the
election by one vote, which is all that
is necessary
How it could be proved that these
men, or any of them, voted for Fern,
was not stated, nor how, even if the
fact of who they voted for could be
.ascertained beyond question, the courts
could be induced to allow it to be done.
As was pointed out, the law makes
the ballot secret one and will not al
low the secret of how any man IS votes
to be pried into. IF any person voted
illegally he ought to be sent to prison
for it, but proof of illegal voting can
not now change the result.
None of the leaders who could be
found either knew anything about this
wonderful discovery, nor could see how
it could affect the result.

The official returns were seventy-three.

MAKE THE BEST OF It.

Some people are thrown off their
balance the moment anything goes
wrong with them. They do not seem
to have the ability to overcome i'm.
pedi ments and to do their work in
spite of aDnoyances
Anybody can work when everything
goes smoothly, when there is nothing
to trouble him but man must be
made of the right kind Of stuff who
can rise above the things which an
noy, harass, and handicap the weak.
and do his work in spite Of them.
Indeed. this is the test Of greatness.
As matter of fact, the greatest n
chievements in all time have been
accomplished by men and women who
have been Handicapped, annoyed, per-
secuted, misunderstood, criticized.
But they have been great enough to
rise above all these things and to do
their work in spite of them.
Few people are large enough to rise
above their aches and pains and dis
appointmets. The majority are al
ways ta liking about them, projecting
their dark shadows into your atmos-
phere, cutting off your sunshine with
their clouds. Their ailments and
their hard luck and misfortunes seem
to be the biggest things about them.
You never meet them but they thrust
them into your presence.
The man who is not big enough
to rise above the things that trouble
him, who can not overtop his aches
and pains, annoyances and disap-
pointments, 30 that they are of little
consequence in comparison with his
great life aim, will never amount to
much.
There is an unwritten law for peo.
pie who are thoroughbred-the real
gentleman and the real lady-which
compels them to keep their troubles
their ailments, their sorrows, their
worries, their losses, to themselves.
There is fine discipline in it. 1t
mellows the character and sweetens
the life. But when these things are |
not borne heroically, they mar the
character and leave their ugly traces
in the face; their .hideous forms ap-
pear in the manner and disfgure the
whole life.
Learn to consume your own smoke.
II you have misfortunes, pains, dis.
eases, losses, keep them to yourself.
Those who know you have them will |
love you and admire you infinitely
more for this suppression A stout
heart and persistent cheerfulness will
be more than match for all your
troubles. Success
