so interested in the seals that he begins to
look like a SEAL He is an indefatigable in
dividual who has given his life to the work
of seal preservation. His long, pointed mus
taches look like those on seal, and his eyes
have the wonderful expression of earnestness
that makes the seal appear SO remarkably
intelligent and almost human. Year after
year the Seal Bug comes to Washington and
fights one administration after another, pre-
sents papers to Congress, writes letters and
pamphlets, and leaves no stone unturned that
will bring about the preservation of the val
liable fur bearing animals of the Alaska isles.
The Claim Bug is of great antiquity
There never was a time when the family was
not represented in Washington. This is
Bug that is never extinguished, and never
sleeps when Congress is in session. Persis-
tent under many reverSeS and ever confident
of ultimate success, he works day and night,
at all times and in all places. 1t has hap
pened that claimant dies; but there are
always heirs and attorneys, the latter with
forty and fifty per cent. contracts, SO the
claim bill returns again and again with
Bug always behind it. Many meritorious
claims fail and many that are rotten to the
core succeed. But as some pass during
every Congress the Bug is ever hopeful, and
believes that his time will surely come.
bill creates @log rolling system that spells
success, and the Claim Bug thus receives en-
enlargement, and is consequently untiring
in his efforts.
The Utility Bug is versatile genius and
never ceases his activity. He never hears OF
or sees anything beautiful or grand that he
does not want to utilize it, and he goes to
Washington to see that the Government
shall carry out his designs. There is not
landscape, waterfall, a mountain, lake
or river that he does not want to utilize.
He sees millions in power going to waste
every year as the waters flow to the ocean;
he would drain mountain lakes for water
supply for cities and irrigation purposes; he
would harness waterfalls and cataracts,
however costly or remote, simply to utilize
their power, although it might not be needed.
The Utility Bug is one who wants to gather
in the sunshine of summer to furnish heat in
winter, and has plan for this purpose if
Congress could be induced to appropriate

talk OF pirates hanging around Lake Pesou,
and knew in a second that | was up against
the Captain Kidd game. And that foxy
native in front of me had all the time been
pulling my gun out of my reach, and the
wrangling and squabbling had all been part of
the game oget me separated from Nc Kinney.
But those coons didn't know that had an
other gun hanging in a holster underneath my
shirt. Well, knew had it there and that it
was in good working order, and knew how to
use it to the best advantage in an emergency
such as this one. So l announced my disin-
clination to pay tribute and told them had
no dash to pay them. At this they seemed
irritated and jabbered among themselves,
threatened me again. and rocked the canoe.
Now, have always thought that anyone
who rocked boat was foolish, and told
them to stop it, as it was risky thing to do.
"Then the fellow sitting in the stern stood
up and said, Daddy, you got plenty dash
hid in your shirt. You no give him right
now, | kill you one time quick!' And he
raised spear and pointed it right at me
just as though he meant it.
ALL right said I, if you want to insist
Z upon having it, why here she goes! and
had time to wink an eye little chunk of
lead had punched hole through his heart.
The shock caused him to tumble over back
ward and he fell into the lake.
Realizing that the dance was on and that
was in the game, the old Arizona deviltry
seemed to take possession of me, and deter
mined to clean out the entire gang. l knew
now that they we're some of the much talked
of pirates, and it was either get them or they
would get me. So turned my attention to
the native who had played horse with my
rifle l doubt if he realized what was going
on; for no sooner had shot the captain of
the crew that l crumpled him up with a
heart puncture.
@The other three men by this time had be-
come alarmed and dived over the side of the
canoe and disappeared in the water. For
tunately they took different sides of the
canoe and so did not capsize it. Seeing my
rifle under the dead native, dropped the
revolver, grabbed the big gun, and was on
the lookout for the heads that knew would

soon show on top of the water when their
owners came up for breath. In minute or
so a kinky mop popped up about fifty feet
off to one side, and promptly knocked it un-
der again-and it stayed down for good.
Then the second and third showed up, and
without any hesitancy their owners were put
out of their misery.
THAT put an end to the piratical demon
STATIONS of that bunch; so slowed the rifle
away and sat down to study the situation
over. The first idea that came to me was to
catch Mckinney and his boys; for thought
surely they would hear the shooting and
turn back to see what was going on. So,
keeping the dead native in the canoe as a
souvenir Il tried to paddle to where | thought
McKinney's boat was. But when rounded
the farther end of the island nothing could
be seen of them, and noticed that the wind
was blowing from them toward me and they
most likely never heard the shooting. Nor
was any other canoe in sight, and, as | did
not know the way to McKinney's planta-
tion l turned the canoe round and started
back to Cape Mount. After awhile l thought
it was useless to carry any excess baggage;
SO | dumped the dead native into the lake.
THAT padding was sure enough hard
work. especially as | was just getting over
the fever, and when l dragged up to the
landing place at Watson store was about
all in.
aAnd," said Anderson, by way of con-
clusion, "the most surprising thing to me
was the way that little popgun acted. Why,
out in Arizona we used to make fun of them
and called them 'tenderfoot toys; but |
don't do it any more-not me! The little
thing sure saved my bacon this time"
THE excitement and overexertion of the
trip back to Watson's had been too
much for the man, and a relapse took place.
For three weeks he lay in fever; and fortu
nately, when able to be up and about, the
four-masted schooner Betty Jones came into
port and Captain Jones took him aboard.
Everybody Clipped in to help pay his pas
sage; but when Captain Jones heard of the
good work done in the determination of the
pirates of Lake Pesou he told Anderson to
keep the money and sail to the good old
U. S. A. as guest of honor-which he did.
