, harbor l was still at the wheel, and
Densbury he was up at the bow, and
would tell me to turn the wheel right
or left, sir. 1t was moonlight night
going out there and we were going
along fine, sir; l thought l was alright
for a sailor; we was hitting it up
it looked, looking astern, and we was
going fast, and when we got outside,
outside of them lights, it was going up
and down like that, sir, and l wanted
to 90 right back.
1--WE got seasiek, sir, we were heav-
ing up our stomach; there was nothing
there, pretty near dead. sir, and l
don't want to be a sailor no more
after that.
"Well, sir; l went to sleep, tried TO
get to sleep down below, but every
thing was topsy-turvy. After l had
been down two or three hours, Deus
bury went down below. and l came up
and didn't see no land in front or on
the side or on the left. and / began
to get scared: it was late out there,
and I looked around, away baek-all
sea-and then 1 saw what l thought
was clouds, and then l saw it was
mountains, and l thought we had got
past Hawaii, and would be in Austria
liza in a couple OF days, the way we was
going. and l twisted it around, some
'ow, and it took US all day Sunday TO
get back to land. And we got back
TO land, and l said, We are on an
other island, we are alright; we VIII
Just anchor this ship here and see if
we can't 90 ashore, and we dropped
the anchor and we began to see some
thing was dragging, and we thought
the chain had broken in half, and just
then it hit the ground.
1.-The next day-it was Monday
we got some things, a couple OF pill
lows. and blankets and some biscuits
we was hungry had got over being
seasiek then, and We took an awning,
all that is old stuff, other stuff be-
sides that we didn want. and we took
that TO protect ourselves from the sun,
no value TO the stuff. Just to protect
ourselves from the sun; we wOuldn I
take that other stuff: we took it about
two hundred yards from the beach. OF
course. if we HAD wanted TO steal IL,
we would have taken stuff that would
paw. but we only took these here-a
little bit-it was too heavy for Us to
pack anyway. We had few clothes,
and we took them ashore too, and we
slept there in the night time, rigged
tent up along the beach about two
hundred yards from the ship.

''We had q good time there. had
box of cigars that was on the boat and
had a good smoke there, and the next
dav them kanaka cops came there,
with guns, and l put my hands up. l
was lying on the ground, and l thought
they wanted to get something; they
went through ny pockets and made
search, they still had the guns on me
they was more scared than US, and
they had guns Well. sir, they took US
down-away to some town there
where there was what we thought was
a lighthouse but it was a sugar chin
ney-and they put US in prison there
Next morning thew put us on a train
and fetched US down here, sir"
Mr.. Breckons having stated that the
defendant had been known in the Phil
ippine Islands bv the name of Dick
Turpin, the court interrogated him on
this point, and the defendant replied
as follows:
''You see. sir; after I left England,
sir-my proper name is stephen smith
when l got to the States, in Philadel-
phia, and going to the Philippine
Islands, that is where 1 changed my
name, sir; 1 Just changed it because it
was too common. I changed it to
Richard Turpin. At the time joined
the ARMY wouldn't join under a
wrong name-so L took the name OF
Stephen Smith, and joined under my
right name, Stephen Smith. ="
Deusbury made a brief statement,
dwelling on the claim that their origi-
nal intention was not to take the
schooner, but having deserted the
army they had to get away from here,
for their safety, and no sailing ships
departing, they at last took the
schooner.
United States District Attorney
Breekons said it seemed to him clear
that there had been larceny from a
vessel in distress, as alleged in the in
dietment He did not think that the
two men were criminal in their in
stinets; but that what they had done
was rather in a spirit of adventure than
of malice.

ment each at hard labor, and to pay a
fine of one dollar.

the drug stores might dispose Of
the stock they had on hand and
that arrangements wouldbemade
for the dispensing of swhiskey
when a physician thought best
TO giyesit to his patient.
In this all that entertained
such an idea were left. The
meeting Wednesday night RE-
suited In settling the matter,
Mayor Graham casting his vote
with those. opposed to reconsider
ing the action of Monday night.
The vote on the question was as
follows: Forreconsiderin eringthemo-

E. H.Bowling. Against: Mes
srs. |. #. Hill. J.. D.. Pridgen, N.
Underwood, w. II. Pollard.
Mayor Graham voted with last
named.
This leaves the matter as it
stood since Mondays meeting.
No whiskey is to be sold by the
drug stores of the city, and the
only chance of relieving your.
self with it is to patronize a blind
tiger or have it come to you in a
package by express, labeled as
you like it.
The meeting was a called one,
but was interesting. the other
matters considered being rela-
tive to lighting the city. The
offer to pay the Durham Traction

fused by the company, and the
settling of this question goes
over until another meeting.
The salary of the city health
