THE LAST CRUISE OF THE LITTLE
MOTHER.
Tom Claflin was 16 years old when his
family moved from Chicago to San Diego,
Cal. His father a consumptive, was no
longer able to work. His mother, a tiny,
cheerful, busy woman with three children
besides Tom, had her hands full with nurs-
ing her husband, making, mending, cook-
ing and caring for the family. They had
been in their new home for three months,
living away their small capital and with
no prospect of earning a dollar. The boom
was over. The town was overrun with
easterners, men and women in frail health,
willing to work for small pay at anything
that would yield them substance. And
so Tom. the hope of his courageous little
mother, had tried everything and failed to
© get work.
It was then that he hit upon the idea of
becoming a fisherman. For a week before
he broached the subject at home he bad
patrolled the shore from Point Loma to
the Coronado beach inscarch of a boat .He
had only $15. and of the scores of small
craft that could be bought at all there. was
but one within his means. A leaky lug-
ger, with frayed old sails and an impossi-
ble Spanish name, stinking of fish and
with a dirty black hull, lay moored off the
Portugese village on the north shore of the
bay, and thither day after day poor Tom
trudged, big with his secret.
One Saturday night he startled the fam-
ily with:
“Well, people, I'm a sea captain at last,
and no joke. Mother, behold your son,
Captain Thomas Claflin, of the good ship
Little Mother.”’
The little woman's blue eyes were filled
with tears when her baby boy showed
them the bill of sale to the effect that he
had bought a vessel for $12.50, and thus,
like a true blue Chicagoan, risked his all
in the only business venture in sight.
“I named her for you, mother, and you
must christen her and take a sail in her to-
morrow.’’
With a basket of luncheon and a pail
and a shovel forclams the Claflin family,
with Tom proudly leading the way, went
down to the beach in the morning. Sure
enough, there lay the Little Mother,
swinging gracefully at her moorings, no
longer dingy and black, but radiant in a
coat of fresh white paint, her sails mended
and shipshape, the stars and stripes flut-
tering from her peak, and her name in
bold blue letters across her hows. Tom's
little brother and sisters danced with de-
light, new light came into his father’s
«yes, and as for ‘‘little mother,’ the pa-
#imon saint of that first voyage, she laughed
aud cried by turns as she sat in the stern
«of fle boat and watched Tom, the captain,
.and dicsle Charley, the “first made,” both
‘bubbling over with excitement and nautic-
:al terms, tagging at ropes, running about
dike regular jack tars and making all ready
““‘to put-to sea,’’ as Tom said.
As the boat, driven by a cool southeast
Ibreeze, stood owt across the bay for the
[Loma lighthouse Tom showed them all the
mew handpump be had rigged into bis lit-
tle ‘‘ship,’’ he explained the centerboard,
wointed out the imaginary beauties and
qualities of the Little Mother, boasted of
what he meant to accomplish asa profes-
sional fisherman and made everybody so
happy that it seemed no time at all till the
sun was dipping into the sea and the first
«raise of the Little Mother was over.
And the boy made good money with his
modest venture. He would rise with the
sun each morning and with his dinner pail
and coarse tackle make for the boat that
had become to him both sweetheart and
provider. His greatest difficulty was his
need of an assistant, and many were the
barracoua and giant jew-fish that escaped
him io his lonely all day cruises up and
down that matchless summer sea. Some-
times he would induce some lagy wharf
idler to accompany him; sometimes old
Pedro, the retired Portugese from whom
be had bought the hoat, would hail him as
Fe stood out to sea and help him with his
werk. Sometimes when the sea was like
:afleor in gleaming onyx, his father would
+ wit in the stern sheets, and little Charley
would “man the jib” or troil a line for
small fish, but alone or with a crew Tom
never failed to bring home at night enough
fish so that his earnings at the end of the
week were almost enough to pay the run-
ning expenses of the frugal little family.
TF was in the end of August that the
"Mowterey, the mouster const defense moe
he
had been in South American waters for
“four months, and the crew got its first
shore leave on American soil at San Diego.
"The big war vessel was thrown open to
\wisiters ene Sunday morning, and all that
day Tom Claflin carried sightseers from
the Santa Fe pier to the Monterey. Good
seaman that he was, he was, fascinated
with the dazzling spotiessness of the moni-
tor, and every night while she lay in port
Tom came abroad to revel in the ship talk
and yarns of officers and men. He soon
knew all the officers by name and had
formed a close friendship with a seaman
named Hansen, who was a hail fellow with
every man in the crew.
Hansen was killed the night before the
Monterey sailed for Frisco. He had gone
ashore with a guard to arrest a balf breed
Mexican stoker who had overstaid his
leave. The guard separated to scour the
town for the deserter, and Hansen, alone,
had the misfortune to corner him in a Chi-
nese dive at the lower end of town. A
knife in the dark as he was dragging his
prisoner through aun alleyway, a panic of
chattering Chinamen, who quenched their
lamps and bolted their doors, and poor
Hansen was left dying in the mire. It is
but four miles to the Mexican border from
San Diego, and thither it was supposed the
RR RR!
The mayor of San Diego offered $200 re-
| ward for the capture of Hansen’s slayer,
the little police force was thrown into a
fever of activity, the Monterey delayed
| her sailing for three days and then the
crime began to be forgotten. Tom sailed
| out to the fishing grounds every morning
with whomever he could pick up.
1t was nearly a month after the monitor
had gone when a lone fisherman sitting at
the end of the jetties that reach from the
cresent end of Coronado island hailed
bim. Young Claflin stood in for the land-
ing and invited the stranger aboard. He
wanted something to eat, and the boy, with
a sudden flutter in his heart, opened his
pail and bade the stranger make himself
comfortable. They fished all that day
with rare luck, and at sundown the Little
Mother was deep with her cargo of bar-
racoua. Once under the lee of Point Loma
on the homeward trip the breeze died out,
and the boat went drifting with the tide.
The southern reaches of the entrance to
San Diego harbor are covered with sand
bars and shallows that extend two miles
along the inner side of the Coronado.
The tide ran out while the Little Mother
was drifting above these bars, and when
darkness fell she went hard aground. A
dense fog came with the night. The chan-
nel buoys disappeared. The distant lights
of the city were blurred and quenched in
the thick haze, and by the time the flood
tide came again it was impossible to steer
the boat with certainty or safety.
«We'd better anchor till the fog lifts,”
said Tom, wondering what his mother
would think if he staid out all night.
His comrade sullenly agreed, and so they
dropped anchor and lay rocking in the
calm cloud of mist for hours. The stranger
fell asleep in the bottom of the boat, but
Tom, big-eyed now. his heart beating with
wild excitement, sat in the bow watching.
It must have been near midnight when he
crept down into the hull and unshipped
the little pump. The tide was going out
again, and as he dropped the dismantled
apparatus into the sea he heard the water
gurgling into the hold. The stranger was
yet sleeping when Tom slipped over the
rail, breast high in tue water, and headed
for shore.
It was 2 in the morning when he reach-
ed the police station in San Diego. He
was bareheaded and wet, his bedraggled
shirt and trouses were clustered with burrs
and thorns, his feet were bleeding, and he
could hardly speak the words :
“Captain, I’ve got the Mexican that
killed Hansen.’’
It was daylight when they surrounded
the scuttled lugger. The Mexican was
awake, clinging to the half submerged
mainmast. The rickety boat, loaded with
fish and bumped by the now running seas,
was going to pieces plank by plank. Tom
didn’t waste a thought over the captured
murderer after he saw the police lay hands
on him, hut he shed a weak, unwilling
tear over the wreck of the ‘‘Little Mother.”
“Why did you wreck your boat, Tom ?’’
asked his mother that day while the story
of her boy's heroism made him the talk of
the town.
“Well, mammy,’’ he said, ‘‘I was afraid
the Mexican’d get away to sea. I wanted
him, you know, but what I wanted most
was the $200 reward. I can buy a new

Beyond a slight loss 6f flesh General Mac-

to General MacArthur to visit Milwaukee,

great satisfaction with the work deme in

Fine Marble in Alaska. |
J. E. Cionin. who has recently returned
trom Marble Creek, on Prince of Wales Isl-
and, and W. K. Sheldon who has just
joined him from San Francisco, have some
wonderful stories to tell of the fine
character of the marble to be found at
Shakan, on Prince Edward Island. The
marble is said to be equal to the best
Italian marble. Mr. Sheldon said:
“When I received samples of this mar-
ble last February I saw at ouce that it was
unlike any marble now being produced in
the United States, but identical with the
marble produced in the world-famous quar-
vies of Carrara, Italy. While there are
a number of profitable quarries in the
United States and a large amount of Amer-
ican marble is used, yet the Italian product
has always occupied a field which no
American marble could fill, as evidenced
by the fact that during the fiscal year
ending June 30, 1900 nearly 40,000 tous of
Italian marble were imported into the
United States. This marble from Alaska
in texture, color, and ehemical analysis is
identical with the Carrara deposit and
there is no reason why it should not sup-
plant the foreign product entirely.
“I went to Alaska in March ard found
a mountain of high grade marble. While
I was fully convinced as to the quality of
the material, I did not wish to make a
final report on the property as a commer-
cial proposition until large blocks had
been quarried taken to the market and
sawed. We therefore quarried a number
of blocks and I took them to San Francisco
and had several of them sawed. These
blocks of course were taken from the
surface of the ground and having been
subjected to climate influnces for several
centuries were soft for a depth of several
inches from the surface but the trial
demonstrated the fact that the deposit is a
remarkably sound one and I have every
reason to believe that the percentage of
high grade sound marbie will be
much larger than in any of the deposits
now being worked in the United States.
In fact when you consider that in develop-
ing marble quarries it is customary to
take out and throw away from ten to
twenty feet of the surface material, the
results obtained are unprecedented.
“The amount of the matter is that on an
island in southeastern Alaska, within a
few feet of deep water, there is a larger
area of high-grade marble than the com-
bined areas of all the quarries now being
worked in the United States.”
Drowned Her Four Children.
Insane Woman in Ohio Town Then Made Away With
Herself.
Mis. Perry Curtiss, of Northfield, a few
miles south of Cleveland, Ohio, drowned
her four children and herself some time be-
tween 5p. m. on Thursday and 3 o’clock
Friday morning. Mrs. Curtiss bad heen
confined in the State asylum for the insane
at Massilon, but was discharged as cured
two weeks ago.
Curtiss is a farmer and left his home at
9 o'clock on Thursday evening, bringing a
load of potatoes to Cleveland to sell. Be-
fore leaving he made arrangements with a
neighbor, E. C. Roberts, to do the milking
for him Friday morning. Roberts arrived
about 5 a. m. and after milking went to the
well to get a bucket of water. Surprised
at not hearing a splash when he lowered
the bucket, he lighted some matches and
peered into the well and there saw several
bodies. He summoned neighbors and the
hodies were taken out. “First the baby,
Rose, 2 years old, was pulled out of the
well, and then Harold, aged 8;next Harry,
aged 6, and Annie, aged four, were found.
The water in the well was only four feet
deep. Mrs. Curtiss was found standing up,
partly crouched, so the water would cover
her.
Curtiss did not learn that his whole fami-
ly had been wiped out of existence until
Friday afternoon, when he stopped at a
restaurant to get something to eat on his
way home. “Horrible tragedy at Nerth-
field, wasn’t it?’ remarked the waiter.
“‘What's that ?’’ asked Curtiss. *‘I’m from
Northfield myself.” ‘A woman named
Curtiss drowned her four children and her-
gelf,”” were the words which greeted his
ears. ‘‘Good God,” exclaimed Curtiss,and
he fell to the floer unconscious. He was
soon revived, and, accompanied by the
waiter who had so abruptly broken the
news to him, hurried bome,
