That cloud was really the smoke
Of the Springbok. The boat herself
was many miles to the northward,
returning full Of heavy hearts from
a fruitless search. The life was
gone out Of the ship; the father
was deeply detected, and the crew
could no longer feign the hope they
did not feel.
At last the dreary monotony was
broken by the man at the mast
head.

"She has altered her course.
"How many points?"
"She was sailing southeast, and

Springbok."
Time confirmed the conjecture;
the schooner came about, and made
long board due west, which was
as near as she could lie to the wind
On this Captain Moreland laid the
steamboats, head due north. This
brought the vessels rapidly to-
gether.
When they were about two miles
distant, the stranger slackened sail
and hove to, hosting Stars and
Stripes at her mizzen. The Union
Jack went up the shrouds of the
Springbok.
General Rolleston walked the
deck in great agitation. and now

The steamboat came alongside
but at a distance to avoid all

Presently negro In white cottor

large, ARE YOU

board, and showed these words

The question was answered by {
loud cheer and waving of hats.
Immediately boat was lowered

There were two men in it; the skip

came up the side of the Springbok
He was loosely dressed in some
light drab-colored stuff and a huge
straw hat; a man with long Puri
tanical head, a nose inclined to bt
aquiline, a face bronzed by weather
and heat, thin, resolute lips, and {
square chin.
He came on deck, just touched
his hat, as If to brush away Aiy

from his mouth, said: Wal, and 81

When Baseball Was an Infant Industry.
It was crude game, but merry. In
theory the pitcher was there only to
give the boys chance to soak the
ball." "First bound" was still out. The
unfortunate. catcher, handling heavy,
lively ball without mask, glove or pro
stector, stood up near the bat when
men were ON bases ifAhe had the skin
and courage. The early guides recon-
mended him to do SO when he could.
Had not the pitcher been restricted to
an artificial throw scarce a catcher
would have lived to tell the tale.
Many catchers took everything ION
first bounce" and managed at that; to
prevent much base stealing. Base run
ming also was in it's infancy. Smith"
says the Spirit Of the Times, caught
a remarkable game, having but five
passed balls scored against him" Here
and there we get glimpse which
shows how crude it all was, what
matter Of hit and miss natural force.

AGREE TO ATTEND CHURCH.

ment the Idea of Governor Stubs.
Change In Tone of Appeals From
Conviots.
Governor Stubs Of Kansas has es-
tablshed a new requirement in the
paroling and pardoning of prisoners
in the state penitentiary. Hereafter
when a convict is liberated on parole
or by absolute pardon he must stipu-
late in writing that he will regularly
attend church. Sunday school and
prayer meeting once each week. II
the prisoner is pardoned the governor
will have no recourse If the agreement
is violated. but a paroled prisoner
could be returned to the penitentiary.
The parole law Of Kansas provides
that convict must agree to keep
away from bad associates, seek en-
ployment and lead moral life.
II have added church going and
Sunday school service to the list"
Governor Stubs said. because it is
the kind of influence which ought to
surround every man or woman who
comes out of state penitentiary. I
shall insist upon this agreement from
every prisoner paroled. no matter how
exemplary has been his conduct in the
penitentiary.'
Governor Stubs does not believe
much in the innocence of men or wom-
en- who get into the penitentiaries of
the country. He entertains high opin-
ions Of courts and juries that try and
convict them. and he does not believe
a governor should set aside their judy

ments.
The governors attitude has become
known in the state penitentiary, and
the letters which are being received
at the executive Office in Topeka from
convicts are Of a different tenor from
those that came during the late Hoch
administration. Governor Stubs must
also be convinced that man is peni-
tent before he will grant a parole or
pardon, even If the Judge, the jury and
the prosecuting attorney who convict
ed him petition for the mans release.
He says penitence is one Of the worlds
greatest virtues.
In the Kansas institution, where
more than 1000 prisoners are incar-
cerated, he says there are many who
are contrdte and penitent and who
would make good and useful citizens If
released. These are the men who will
receive favors from Governor Stubs,
but those who write telling Of their
innocence do not receive much con-
sideration unless they, possess the pen
itent spirit.

perience Is similar to that of other
executives throughout the country. If
he were to believe all the letters writ
ten to him by convicts not less than
80 per cent Of the men in the peni-
Tertiary are absolutely innocent, and
the other 10 per cent are only partially
guilty. a. 1857 u
Occasionally the governor receives a
letter from convict who doesn't pre-
tend to be innocent. One Of this kind
which came In the mails q few days
ago contained sharp fling at former
Governor Hoch, who, it has been re-
ported. pardoned the murderer Arnold
because he wrote a sentimental poem.
The convict's name is withheld by
Governor Stubs, but his letter fol-

ably fine hand. While the letter is re-
freshing in that it is different from
hundreds of others received from the
same institution, it is likely that before
| he grants any f9vors to this convict
the governor will recommend that he
begin the cultivation of flowers in
the conservatory Of his SOUL" This
expression has been used in jest many
times since it was first uttered by
former Governor Hoch before the grad
uating classes Of the State university,
but Governor Stubs believes in the
idea it conveys.
Ordinarily the convicts write that
their morals. which were good when
they went into the penitentiary, are
being corrupted by the many criminals
around them and that they want to
get out where they can lead useful
lives. Some Of these who have heard
Of Governor Stubs requirement as
to church going have written him that
they desire to be released so that they
may have the advantages Of church
and Sunday school work. to which
they offer to devote the remainder Of
their lives. One Of these offered to
join any church the governor would
suggest. The executive is an old fash
Toned Quaker. but he will not use his
power in behalf Of that sect.
The first parole to contain the new
church going condition was issued re-
Gently. Charles Glass was serving
sentence for robbing schoolhouse in
Stafford county. His father died, and
the friends of the family asked Gov
ernor Stubs by wire to parole him
| so he could attend the funeral. The
governor granted the parole, but not
until he had conferred with the warden
by long distance telephone and learned
that Glass had earned his release by

The reading room is in subdued tones,
without external ornamentation, CIV
ing an air Of distinguished restfulness.
By reason of its simplicity the idea Of
spaciousness is much enhanced. An
ingenious arrangement Of the furni-
ture adds to the architectural effect.
The bookcases are let into the walls
between the permanently fixed writ
ing tables, utilizing every nook and
corner to the best advantage.
For those who wish the very acme
of luxury while travelling are two i'm
perial suites. as they are technically
known. These consist of drawing
room, breakfast and dining room, bed
roona fitted with brass beds and bath,
together with all toilet accessories.
-. There are thirty-one cabins with
baths attached, and all the saloons and
deck, cabins have been fitted with large
windows. The loftiness of the liner
between decks and the large electric
fans in all the saloons combine to keep
the ship well ventilated.
Nearly all Of the. first cabin rooms
are so high above the water line that
the windows may be left open even
in the toughest weather, insuring an
abundance of fresh air and light.
The vessel is divided into thirteen
water tight compartments, and two
stairways are provided for every COM
partment below the saloon deck, so
that all water tight doors can be closed
during a fog without cutting OF COM
munication with the other parts of the
ship. =
The second and third class and steer
age accommodations on the George
Washington have been fitted out in
the same comfortable manner as the
first cabin, according to the respective
classes. The liner has second crows
nest suspended from the crosstrees on
the foremost so that the lookout man
will feel the ice in a fog of the banks
Of Newfoundland quicker than the
man below in the crows nest by the
foretop.
The George Washington was built at
the yards Of the Stettiner Vulcan COM
pany in Bremen. Her dimensions are:
Length 722 feet inches. beam 70 feet,
depth from awning deck 80 feet, speed
1876 knots, displacement at thtriy-three
feet draft $1,000 tons, gross registered
tonnage $1,000, horsepower 10000 and
cargo capacity $4,000 tons.
The liner has seven decks and is
equipped with Marconi wireless appa-
ratus, submarine signaling. Stone-Lloyd
for closing the water tight bulkhead
doors. This device enables the doors
to be closed by the simple turning Of a
wheel on the bridge deck These doors
may be closed and the ship practically
Theoretically sealed within fifteen Sec
onds. Another safeguard is bell sys-
tenn for fire extinguishing purposes.
Some Of the innovations Of the
George Washington are the. .eIimina-
