fences With Tribe of West African
Savases.Broueht Slave Home.

At 406 South Front street there
lives a sailor man. His name is Jake
Jake Slit, A. B.-able seamon-is
his full title, although it really has
nothing to do with the yarn that he
spun yesterday afternoon. Forty
men shipped before the mast as a
galley boy on a tramp brig sailing
from Glasgow. Now he is the OILY
known slave owner in the United
States. Fortunately, Jake told his
auditors that he was a stcwaway OF
else the story would have lost one Of
its essentials. Who ever heard of a
sea dog and an adventurer who had
not run away from home to become
both?
With the exceptions of two months,
Jake has sailed the seas ever since,
and on those two months hang the in
c1dents that form the tale that Jake
rehearsed.
Early in the spring of 'S4 was
master of trim brig, the Nellie NJ"

stream on the bare foot of a tow

that ever reached land. We shipped

We'll, to come down to the real
tale, We landed in Liverpool three
weeks later and shipped as common
seamen on bark loaded with salt and
hemp for the west coast of Africa A
gale drove us on the rocks off the
Canaries, and Joe and 1 landed again,
only to fall into the hands of a tribe
OF black fellows, who promptly told
US IN their own lingo-it didn't need
lnterpreting-that the village of Ha-
"alanage was about to be entertained
by two foreign globe trotters that
evening, and that there would be a
banquet later.

THE COVER EOR SHIP OF PORTO
RICO.
lOnN0Oh.l

For some time Governor Regis Fl. Post,
of Porto RlcD, has, lor p9rsOnGI reasons, de-
sired to resign. As our readers know, how-
ever, there has been a controversy III the
island between a certain group of Spanish
politicians and the representatives, of tue
American Government. Briefly, this contro-
Yersy was one over the question whether
these politician, Of Porto R.co should have
the privilege Of spending money raised by
the United States The politician, became
SO bitter IN the + feeling that they attempted
TO enforce their will by p9ralyzing the Gov
ernm9nt Finally, q law pissed By Congress
ut tue instance Of President Taft put al end
to this attempted suOversiou Of all orderly
rule in the island. 50 long as this contro-
versy was acute, Mr.. Post could not con-
scientiously with lraw from the Governor
ship. Now, however, that the difficulty has
been settled, Mr.. Post has offered his re5ig-
nation. He leaves with the congratulations
of the President upon his administrative
record. His frankne5s and courage have
been mingled with a genuine and effective
concern for the interests of the Porto Rlcans
and the future of the island. The recent
Secretary of Porto Re Mr.. WIloughby,
was a few weeks ago appointed by Presl-
dent Taft as Assistant Director of the Cen
sus, a position for which by temperament
an training he is conspicuously fitted. In
his place as Secretary of Porto Rico the
President has appointed NJ. George Cabot
Ward. This appointment is not only a re.
cognition of Mr.. Wards eminent services as
Auditor of the island, but also a reatfirmatlon
by the President of his approval OF the
course pursued by the American officials and
Of his disapproval of those Porto Rican poll
ticians who for party advantage would, If
they could, have put in jeopardy the welfare
of the Porto Rican people. Mr.. Post" sue
cessor as Governor is to be Mr.. George K.
Cotton. Mr.. Cotton is not only q fluent speak
er of Spanish, who has a knowledge of Latin
peoples, bnt is in particular experienced IN
the administration of island dependencies.
He has had military and civil experience IN
the Philippines and civil experience in Santo
Domingo. His duties have made him &C
quainted with the financial side of govern
ment, and he is especially equipped Oh tariff
matters. Porto Rico has been well served
by men whose chief interest is not the com
