Y., Dec. 23—Careful investigation by the Associated Negro Press discloses the fact that among the contributing factors in the wide swing of Negro votes to the democrat party during the fall election was the failure of the republican national administration to come up to expectations in the matter of racial recognition, and the statement of President Harding recommending that citizens of the Negro race divide their votes ```markdown ``` "We took the president at his word and acted," said one life-long republican. This wholesale defection of voters has created consternation in republican circles, and already organization has started for 1922. Alderman George W. Harris, who sticks to his councilmanic seat by a plurality of 7 votes, and stating that he does not fear the results of the recount, took the lid off at a recent meeting of the city organization, and declared that unless the republican party changes front, there will be little hope for success in the next election. EXECUTIVE BOARD NATIONAL BAPTIST WILL MEET JAN. 25 (The Associated Negro Press) (The Associated Negro Press) Evanston, Ill., Dec. 23.—The executive board of the National Baptist Convention (unincorporated) has been called to meet at Nashville, Tenn. Wednesday, January 25, 1922 at 10 a. M. in the chapel of the Seminary. At New Orleans many pledges were made under the eloquent appeal of the late Dr. C. J. W. Boyd and it is understood that this session of the board will take steps to meet pressing obligations. Dr. G. A. Long of Helena, Ark., successor to Dr. Boyd, is already located at Nashville. FLAGSTAFF By Mrs. A. Davis Mr. William Austin left last week for his home in Phoenix. Mr. T. W. Garrison was slightly indisposed last week. Mrs. Will Cox and family have moved to town and will reside all winter. Flagstaff is covered with a beautiful white carpet of snow for Christmas. The Willing Workers Club met Thursday afternoon and a very interesting meeting was held. Mrs. S. L. White brought in the following questions: "What President Was First to Occupy The White House in Washington, D. C.?" "Who Selected The Site For The White House?" "When Was The Corner Stone Laid?" The club members reported $25 from the bazaar held last week. The next meeting of the club will be with Mrs. James Billingslea on January 5, 1922. To Our Readers No person is in a better position to know the attitude of the business concerns of a community than the one who solicits the advertisements and comes in personal contact with the heads of the business concern. When the advertisement of a business firm is carried in the Tribune, it not only serves as an announcement of the special prices or the line of goods handled by that concern, but it is a Direct Invitation to members of the race to patronize the business place; further, it is assurance of fair and courteous treatment. Go Where You Are Invited LINCOLN STUDENT WINS $50.00 PRIZE IN ESSAY CONTEST LINCOLN STUDENT WINS $50.00 PRIZE IN ESSAY CONTEST (The Associated Negro Press) Chester, Pa. Dec. 23. — Before an audience which packed the Lincoln University chapel and included many Oxford people, the Mrs. Louis Atherton Dickey prize of fifty dollars was awarded by the donor to Chauncey N. Wilson of Palatka, Florida. The essay which was read by the successful contestant, was a thoughtful discussion of the subject, "Disarmament From a Christian Point of View." In introducing the speaker of the evening Prof. James Carter, who presided, said, while Warren G. Harding was president of the United States that Dr. Oswald Garrison Villard was head of "The Nation," and that Dr. Villard's grandfather was stirring the conscience of the nation while Dr. John Miller Dickey of Oxford was founding Lincoln University for the higher education of the Negro. Doctor Villard who has been in daily attendance at the peace conference at Washington, spoke of it as "A conference to lower the cost of war." He contended that it was dealing with the symptoms rather than the disease, and that armament makes for war and not for peace. Mr. Hughes, however, the speaker said, had stunned the world of diplomacy with this clear cut, straightforward, businesslike proposition. The conference has forcused the thought of the world on disarmament and the reports of the newspaper men in attendance reach four hundred million people. The effects of Mr. Hughes' speech cannot be exaggerated, and it is not improbable that an annual conference, a democratic association of nations, will grow out of the present gathering. The speaker said, "If we do not get war out of the world, the world will be wrecked by war." Doctor Villard approved of President Harding's proposal to outlaw war, and said that the "Knox Plan" of bringing all international disputes before the world court of The Hague would be the most promising method of securing world peace. FORT HUACHUCA By Pvt. I. H. Johnson Mrs. B. Green is visiting her sisters in Douglas and incidentally doing a little Christmas shopping. The entire regiment assembled at headquarters Thursday afternoon at 1:15 and listened to a good lecture on discipline, oath and obligation by Lieut. Col. Kuznick. The whole force was unified by the lecture and it was all afternoon talk among the men. Mr. Young, a forest ranger, came into post a few days ago and told of a great experience he had in trapping a fox. The trap was set but the bait was hooked to the branch of a tree. The fox made a leap for the bait and fell in the fork of the tree with all four feet clear of the ground and was then captured by Mr. Young. The trap makers will soon go into bankruptcy if this is kept up. Hats off to the Universal Ford car. Mr. Dalton, a rancher, living near the post, came in a few days ago and for some reason was late getting out. He accidentally ran his Ford into a two-foot ditch near Station Hospital. Five or six men helped him rescue the Ford and after examination, it was found that no harm had been done the little Ford. He merely cranked his car and went on his way rejoicing. An Old Maid's ball was given Saturday night by the O. E. S. at Masonic hall. The dance was successful, but we cannot say how the old maids came out. Mrs. Sandrige, wife of First Sgt. Sandrige, went to Bisbee, Friday, in a new Studebaker and on the return, just two miles east of Hereford, the car went over a four foot embankment, turned bottom side upward and threw all the occupants to the ground. In the car were, Mrs. Sandrige, her three children, Mrs. Stewart and a male passenger. None of them received a single bruise. There were also one dozen eggs in the car and on examination, it was found that not an egg was broken. The car was righted, the engine set in motion and it climbed the same embankment over which PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 24, 1921 Greetings always come to visit you at Christmas-time each year, But every time I come along I miss a face that's dear; always come to visit you at Christmas-time each year, But every time I come along I miss a face that's dear; Some girlie is a woman grown, some boy is now a man, But while the crop of kiddies lasts I'll do the best I can To make you shout instead of cry, And make you laugh instead of sigh! it had fallen. This statement is verified by more than twenty people who came to the scene of the accident. No Room For Christ The Rev. M. Thompson of the C. M. E. church announces that his subject for Sunday morning will be: "No Room For Christ." All Phoenix invited to come and hear this sermon at 11 o'clock Sunday morning. Mr. Allen Indisposed Friends of Mr. Percy Allen will be grieved to learn that he is confined to his home, 1214 East Washington, street on account of illness. BIG OFFICIAL OF U.N.I.A. ORDER STEPS DOWN AND OUT (The Associated Negro Press) New York, N. Y., Dec. 23.—Reliable information has been received by the Associated Negro Press to the effect that William C. Matthew, of Boston, assistant counsel general of the U. N. I. A., the Garvey Movement, has resigned his position. Mr. Matthews is a former assistant district attorney in Boston, and one of the recognized leaders of his state. It is predicted that other honors will soon come to Attorney Matthews. Doing Just Fine Mr. Wm. Norwood of 1213 East Washington street, who the past few weeks has been confined to his home on account of illness, is now able to be up. His sister, Mrs. Hawkins, also has quite recovered from her recent indisposition. OFFICE SEEKERS GROWING IMPATIENT WITH THEIR PARTY OFFICE SEEKERS GROWING IMPATIENT WITH THEIR PARTY (The Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., Dec. 23. — Announcement that the Dyer anti-lynching bill had been advanced on the calendar, brought a large number of interested citizens to the national capital. The determination of the Harding administration to carry war against the various congressional "blocs" now in the national law making body, has created unprecedented interest in legislative matters. There is no denying the fact that the present congress will accept the suggestion of President Harding in his address before the body, in which the president declared strongly in favor of party organization. This followed by the masterful address of Secretary of War Weeks in New York, shows which way the wind is blowing, and proves beyond doubt that the administration forces has awakened from the dream of political Utopia, and have begun a campaign along the line of the old saying: "To the victor belongs the spoils." If the republicans could sing that ditty as the democrats do, (always), in the opinion of several practical party workers, the administration might be able to get off some of the rocks of disappointment on which it has landed the republican ship. "High ideals are all right," said a United States senator to the A. N. P. representation, "but to 'make hay while the sun shine,' the boys back home who deliver the votes must be given the jobs." Continuing he said: "It is enough to make Hark Hanna turn over in his grave the way our administration has kept the democrats in office, and listened to their wild stories about having 'changed party.'" The holiday season is on, but beginning the first of the year, the greatest off year political contest in the history of the country will begin. The democrats think they have a "world of material" of inefficiency and failure to live up to promises, with which to go before the voters. Northern democrats, particularly, will make a strong bid for Negro votes in close centers. The republicans will seek a vote of cnofidence, and will set about to establish a nation-wide organization. FORT APACHE Editor, The Tribune: Dear Sir:—We are sending you some of the news from Fort Apache and shall continue to send it every week so the boys in Fort Huachuaca will know what we are doing out here. We are very glad indeed to receive The Tribune in Apache as we are unable to get many papers out here. Well, here is the news about the boys in Apache: Pvt. Herman has left the boys and has taken unto himself a wife. We are very glad to have another woman in camp and hope she will remain. Sgt. Edward R. Milden has been staying in a good bit here of late, and no wonder, for we have just learned that he too is to be married soon, some say the lucky lady is from Phoenix, while others say that she is from Kansas. Since we are a good friend of Wilden's, we know the young lady is from Kansas. The football team is in fine shape and the boys are looking for a game in Holbrook real soon. There are many good whist players in the troop now and the ladies have given a number of whist parties recently. The boys are planning a bear hunt real soon and we wish them luck. We want them to get the bear and not let the bear get them. Sgt. Milden, Cpl. Lowe, Cpl. Allen, Cpl. Thomas, Cpl. Caloway and Pvt. Arnold returned from a hunting trip and brought in a big deer. Yours truly, "BOYS OF APACHE" Mrs. J. A. Wright returned a few days ago from California where she been the past year. 5 Cents a Copy; $2.50 a Year WOODMEN SOCIETY LASTING CREDIT TO COLORED PEOPLE WOODMEN SOCIETY LASTING CREDIT TO COLORED PEOPLE (The Associated Negro Press) Denver, Colo., Dec. 23. — Possibly, few Negroes know that the American Woodmen, now the leading fraternal insurance organization among Negroes, was originally established by white men with the avowed purpose of insuring the lives of Negroes. And still more interesting is the fact that these white men, after attempting to do business among Negroes from 1901-10, frankly acknowledged that they were unable to do so and turned the organization which they had established over to a group of Negro men headed by Honorable C. M. White. At the time of this change in management, the association numbered a scant membership of 1,846, with total available assets of a little over $7,000,000. In the 12 years since then, the society has grown under the management of Negroes until it now numbers over 60,000 members and counts its assets as closely approaching the "Million Dollar Mark." The society is a living testimonial to the fact that Negroes can run their own affairs, build up their own enterprises with as great efficiency as whites. PROMINENT PARTY LEADER ANSWERS HIS MASTER'S CALL PROMINENT PARTY LEADER ANSWERS HIS MASTER'S CALL (The Associated Negro Press) Cleveland, Ohio, Dec. 23. — Albert Duncan ("Starlight") Boyd, a leader in republican politics here for the last 20 years, died at St. Sinia hospital after only a week's illness with pneumonia. He was well known in political and sporting circles from coast to coast and from the lakes to the gulf. His estate is estimated to be $200,000. Among his holdings is valuable property between 40th and 46th streets on Central avenue. The last campaign worked havoc with his physical strength. He subjected himself to exposure, incurring a cold which proved fatal to him. Second Baptist Church Sunday was a great day at the Second Baptist church and the attendance was unusually large. The pastor, Dr. Greene, delivered two powerful sermons and his remarks were well received. Appropriate Christmas exercises will be held at this church and you are invited. Antioch Baptist Church Regular services were held Sunday at Antioch Baptist church and the pastor delivered two able sermons. The congregation was large and collections good as usual.

FRED PATRONAGE NOT SOLID Force of the Metropolitan Life Insurance passed the point of brutality. Of the Urban League of New York vice-president of this company blamed not employ any colored people them, and did not care to have should gladly get rid of those the standing that they represented to this disposition on the part of them, to the fact that mortality hundred per cent greater than all of course, is absurdly false, and to know it than the vice-president necessary, we suppose, for some prejudice. Hence he advanced that a creature of his prejudicial company had great hoards of aged colored people of all sections of enoyance. They established who of insurance, by which they were from infants to great grand-faeces to one dollar a week. And by the Metropolitan Company, Dealing with the poorer of bring about lapses, and by surge sums of moneys from a clerk to lose. Now that they have methods, they say colored applicants are not wanted. We should be who are members should with again little by remaining, because of device by which they can be a after the death of the insured length to accomplish it. We shy away that we can do without it at us. Don't patronize the Metry of New York with offices at COLORED PATRONAGE NOT SOLICITED The impudence of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company of New York has passed the point of brutality. In an interview with an official of the Urban League of New York City a few days ago, the vice-president of this company blandly stated that his company would not employ any colored person; that it did not seek to insure them, and did not care to have them apply for insurance and would gladly get rid of those they had already insured, notwithstanding that they represented twelve per cent of their business. This disposition on the part of his company was due, as he claimed, to the fact that mortality among colored people was one hundred per cent greater than among the whites. This statement, of course, is absurdly false, and no one is in a better position to know it than the vice-president of this company. It was necessary, we suppose, for some excuse for the existence of his prejudice. Hence he advanced an absurdity which is no doubt a creature of his prejudical hope. Just a few years ago this company had great hoards of agents plying their trade among the colored people of all sections of the country, to the point of annoyance. They established what they called an industrial grade of insurance, by which they would insure your whole family, from infants to great grand-fathers, and would collect from five cents to one dollar a week. This method was first inaugurated by the Metropolitan Company and it did an enormous business. Dealing with the poorer classes, they used every device to bring about lapses, and by such methods were able to secure large sums of moneys from a class of people who could least afford to lose. Now that they have grown rich by such business methods, they say colored applicants for insurance in their company are not wanted. We should not be insulted by applying. Those who are members should withdraw at all hazards. You will gain little by remaining, because if there is any legal or technical device by which they can beat you at maturity of your policy or after the death of the insured, they are known to go to any length to accomplish it. We should pull out and show this company that we can do without it as well as it claims it can do without us. Don't patronize the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company of New York with offices almost everywhere. WORTH THE MONEY papers throughout Arizona are subscribers to supplement circuit of financial distress. The Messy to offer jewelry, junk or ors. Our plan is to issue a clear the news worth while, omit incidents of life. Such a newspap 22 a year. Daily newspapers throughout Arizona are offering special inducements to subscribers to supplement circulation lost during the past year of financial distress. The Messenger has never found it necessary to offer jewelry, junk or other premiums to secure subscribers. Our plan is to issue a clean, truthful paper that publishes all the news worth while, omitting the frivolous and degrading incidents of life. Such a newspaper is worth the regular price of $2 a year. Circulation secured through beauty contests or special drives is of little value to the advertisers. The paper that reaches the homes and is read by the family is indispensable. We find no fault with others but prefer to stick to the legitimate system. Formerly nearly all the great publications of the United States were issued weekly but the growth of great industrial centers, the big cities, has made a demand for the metropolitan daily that is in a class by itself. Next comes the small city and big town daily that is still in touch with the public. It partakes of some of the vices of the metropolitan journal and many of the virtues of the well edited weekly. We still believe the weeklies are closer read, more dependable and influential in proportion to circulation than of the dailies. But there is no rivalry or competition between the dailies and weekly papers. Each has a distinctive field with a certain intellectual zone in common. The weekly reaches a field that the daily can not enter. Likewise, where haste is necessary the daily is indispensable. Here in Arizona no daily has an extended circulation except in its local community, usually bounded by a radius of 50 miles. This state is made up of isolated communities, widly separated so that only a weekly can hope to be of state-wide circulation and then it must be published at the Capital and carry political news of the day without coloring. No daily extends beyond its Associated Press radius. A weekly, if properly prepared and carefully edited, ought to be a visitor in the homes in every county in the entire state. People will pay $2 a year to get news of the state. The Messenger hopes to extend its present state-wide circulation, so that it will reach every home where English is read. The big dailies of Los Angeles, El Paso, Albuquerque and some from more distant points, seriously handicap the ambitions of the daily papers published in the various cities and towns. After all is said, the best way to get more subscribers is to run a better paper. Growth of service will increase demand. You can not keep people from reading a good newspaper, neither can you compel them to read or subscribe for an undesirable sheet. News is truth, and that is what the public wants. Those who are not in too big a hurry will wait for the weekly or magazine while those in greater hurry buy the telegraph news of the daily. So there you are.—Phoenix Messenger. We believe The Messenger has struck the "Key Note" and since the editor of The Messenger is a seasoned veteran, we shall heed the advice given. A better paper is what readers want. They care nothing for premiums, etc., etc. Our aim is to make each issue of The Phoenix Tribune just a little bit better than the preceding one. Perhaps that accounts for our rapidly increasing circulation. We believe we are pursuing the right course. good?

M. had charge of arrangements. The Rev. Dr. Greene pastor of the Second Baptist church, delivered the sermon which was a fitting tribute to the memory of this noble young man. Many letters of condolence sent the bereaved wife by sympathizing friends were read. The floral offerings were many and very beautiful A large concourse of friends followed the remains to their last resting place and interment was made in Greenwood cemetery.

Basketball Game The colored boys of the Phoenix Union High school basketball team met the crack team of Indian players last Saturday at the Indian school. It was the first match game the colored boys had played and they covered themselves with glory. The Indians have a professional team but they had to go some to beat the colored lads. The final score was 23 to 13 in favor of the Indians. Should a return game be played between these teams on the high school court, we believe the colored boys will emerge with colors flying. *** Word received from Superior, Arizona, informs us of the death in that town of the only colored child in Superior.

RESOLUTIONS The following resolutions adopted by the choir of the Second Baptist church and read at the funeral services of our beloved sister, Lillia Lewis, have been ordered placed in the minutes of the choir, a copy given to realitives of the deceased and a copy to the press. The resolution follows: Whereas, in the course of human events a solemn fact always remains, that life is uncertain and death is sure. Our bounds are set and we cannot pass them. Therefore, the members of the choir of the Second Baptist church bow their hearts in sorrowful submission to our heavenly Father that it has pleased Him to remove from our number, our beloved sister Lilla Lewis, though we sigh, with tearful eyes, yet our hearts are not in despair, for we hope to meet our dear sister on the shores of eternal bliss and there to part no more. Sister Lewis was the founder of our choir about ten years ago and always faithful to her trust. We shall miss her and the beautiful tone of her voice, yet her earnest faithfulness will ever be an example for us to do our full duty in our church work by rendering songs of praise. With bowed heads and sorrowful hearts we repeat with the poet: "Sister thou wast mild and lovely, Gentle as the summer breeze; Pleasant as the air of evening, Pleasant as the air of evening, When it floats among the trees, "Peaceful be thy silent slumber, Peaceful in the grave so low; Thou no more shall join our number, Thou no more our songs shall know "Yet again we hope to meet thee, Where the day of life has fled; And in heaven with joy we'll greet thee, Where no farewell tear is shed." —By Mrs. Gertrude McCutcheon- 1215 East Jefferson St., Phoenix. CHANDLER Mrs. Jack Gray left Wednesday for Los Angeles where she will spend Christmas with relatives.

Wells and Mrs. Lewis motored to Chandier Sunday from Phoenix and spent the day as guests in the Greer home. Freeman Greer has returned from Tuccson and will engage in business here. The Green Pea Pirates (CONTINUED FROM PRECEDING ISSUE) had overtaken him. In his agony he forgot to curse his navigating officer for the latter's stubbornness in refusing to turn back when the fog threatened. He clutched Mr. Gibney by the right arm, thereby interrupting for an instant the dismal outburst from the Maggie's siren. "Gib," he moaned. "I'm a ruined man. How're we ever to get the old sweetheart of whole? Answer me that, Gib. Answer me, I say. How're we to get my Maggie off the beach?" matter what happen no other navigatin' "Don't crow till woods," the astute him. CHAPTE In the office of the Boat company Cap master of the tug A Jack Flaherty, mast and Tiernan, the Mr. Gibney shook himself loose from that frantic grip and continued his pull on the whistle until the Maggie, taking a false note, quavered, moaned, spat steam a minute and subsided with what might be termed a nautical sob. "Now, see what you've done?" he bawled. "You've made me bust the whistle." "Answer my question. Glb." "We'll never get her off if you don't quit interferin' an' give me time to think. I'll admit there ain't much of a chance, because it's dead low water now an' just as soon as the tide is at the flood she'll drive further up the beach an' fall apart." "Perhaps McGuffey will have heart enough to telephone into the city for a tug." "Tain't scarcely probable, Scragsgy. You abused him vile an' threw a lot of fodder at him." "I wish I'd been took with paralysis first," Scragsgy walled bitterly. "You'd best jump ashore, Gib, an' phone in. We're just below the Cliff house and you can run up to one o' them beach resorts an' 'phone in to the Red Stack Tug Boat company." "T wouldn't be ethics for me, the registered master o' the Maggie, to desert the ship, Scraggsy, old stick-in-the-mud. What's the matter with gettin' your own shanks wet?" "I dassen't, Gib. I've had a touch of chills an' fever ever since I used to run mate up the San Joaquin sloughs. Here's a nickel to drop in the telephone slot, Gib. There's a good fellow." "Scraggsy, you're deludin' yourself. Show me a tugboat skipper that would come out here on a night like this to pick up the S. S. Maggie, two decks an' no bottom an' loaded with garden truck, an' I'll wag my ears an' look at the back o' my neck. She ain't worth it." "Ain't worth it! Why, man, I paid fifteen hundred hard cash dollars for her." "Fourteen hundred an' ninety-nine dollars an' ninety-nine cents too much. They seen you comin'. However, grantin' for the sake of argument that she worth the tow, the next question them towboat skippers' will ask is: 'Who's goin' to pay the bill?' It'll be two hundred an' fifty dollars at the lowest figger, an' if you got that much credit with the towboat company you're some high financier. Ain't that logic?" "I'm afraid," Scraggs replied sadly, "it is. Still, they'd have a lien on the Maggie—" "Steamer ahoy!' came a voice from the beach. "Man with a megaphone," Mr. Gibney cried. "Ahoy! Ahoy, there!" "Who are you an' what's the trouble?" Captain Scraggs took it upon himself to answer: "American steamer Mag—" Mr. Glbney sprang upon him tigerishly, placed a horny, tobacco-smelling palm across Scraggs' mouth and effectively smothered all further sound. "American steamer Yankee Prince," he bawled like a veritable Bull of Bashan, "of Boston, Hong Kong to Frisco, with a general cargo of sandal wood, rice an' silk. Where're we at?" "Just outside the Gate. Half a mile o' the Cliff house." "Telephone in for a tug. We're in nice shape, restin' easy, but our rudder's gone an' the after web o' the crank shaft busted. Telephone in, my man, an' I'll make it up to you when we get a safe anchorage. Who are you?" "Lindstrom, of the Golden Gate Life Saving station." "I'll not forget you, Lindstrom. My owners are Yankees, but they're sports." "All right. I'll telephone. On my way!" "God speed you," murmured Mr. Gibney, and released his hold on Captain Scraggs, who instantly threw his arms around the navigating officer's burly neck. "I forgive you, Adelbert," he crooned. "I forgive you freely. By the tail of the Great Sacred Bull, you're a marvel. She's all night fog or I'm a Chinaman, and if it only stays thick enough—" "It'll hold," Gibney retorted doggedly. "It's a tule fog. They always hold. Quit huggin' me. Your breath's bad." Captain Scraggs, hurled forcibly backward, bumped into the pilot house, but lost none of his enthusiasm. "You're a jewel," he declared. "Oh, man, what a head! Whatever made you think of the Yankee Prince?" "Because," Mr. Gibney answered calmly, "there ain't no such ship, this land of ours bein' a free republic where princes don't go. Still, it's a nice name, Scraggs, old tarot—more particular since I thought it up in a hurry. Eh, what?" "Halvorsen," cried Captain Scraggs. The lone deckhand emerged from a hole in the freight forward whither he had retreated to escape the vegetable barrage put over by Captain Scraggs when McGuffey left the ship. "Aye, aye, sir," he boomed. "All hands below to the galley!" Scraggs shouted. "While we're waitin' for this here toowboat I'll brew a scuttle o' grog to celebrate the discovery o' real sea-farin' talent. Gib, my dear boy. I'm proud of you. No matter what happens, I'll never have no other navigatin' officer." "Don't crow till you're out o' the woods," the astute Gibney warned him. CHAPTER III. In the office of the Red Stack Tug Boat company Captain Dan Hicks, master of the tug Aphrodite; Captain Jack Flaherty, master of the Bodega, and Tiernan, the assistant superintendent on night watch, sat around a hot little box stove engaged in that occupation so dear to the maritime heart, to-wit: spinning yarns. The telephone rang and Tiernan answered. Hicks and Flaherty hitched forward in their chairs to listen. "Hello. . . Yes, Red Stack office. . . Steamer Yankee Prince. . . What's that? . . silk and rice? . . Half a mile below the Cliff house, Eh? . . Sure, I'll send a tug right away, Lindstrom." Tiernan hung up and faced the two skippers. "Gentleman," he announced, "here's a chance for a little salvage money tonight. The American steam- A "The American Steamer Yankee Prince Is Ashore Half a Mile Below the Cliff House." er Yankee Prince is ashore half a mile below the Cliff house. She's a big trump with a valuable cargo from Hong Kong, with the rudder gone and her crank shaft busted." "It's high water at twelve thirty-seven," Jack Flaherty pleaded. "You'd better send me, Tiernan. The Bodega has more power than the Aphrodite." This was the truth and Dan Hicks knew it, but he was not to be beaten out of his share of the salvage by such filmsy argument. "Jack," he pleaded, "don't be a hog all the time. The Yankee Prince is an eight thousand-ton vessel and it's a two-tug job. Better send us both, Tiernan, and play safe. Chances are our competitors have three tugs on the way right now." "What a wonderful imagination you have, Dan. Eight thousand tons! You're crazy, man. She's thirteen hundred net register and I know it because I was in Newport News when they launched her, and I went out with her skipper on the trial trip. She's a long, narrow-gutted craft, with engines atft, like a lake steamer." "We'll play safe." Tiernan decided. "Go to it—both of you, and may the best man win. She'll belong to you, Jack, if she's thirteen hundred net and you get your line aboard first. If she's as big as Dan says she is, you'll be equal partners—" But he was talking to himself, Down the docks Hicks and Flaherty were racing for the respective commands, each shouting to his night watchman to pipe all hands on deck. Fortunately, a goodly head of steam was up in each tug's boilers; because of the fog and the liability to collisions and consequent hasty summons, one engineer on each tug was on duty. Out through the Gate they nosed their way, heaving the lead continuously, made a wide detour around Mile rock and the Seal rocks, swung a mile to the south of the position of the Maggie, and then came cautiously up the coast, whistling continuously to acquaint the Yankee Prince with their presence in the neighborhood. In anticipation of the necessity for replying to this welcome sound, Captain Scraggs and Mr. Gibney had, for the past two hours, busied themselves getting up another head of steam in the Maggie's boilers, repairing the whistle and splicing the wires of the engine room telegraph. Like the wise men they were, however, they declined to sound the Maggie's siren until the tugs were quite close. Even then, Mr. Gibney shuddered, but needs must when the devil drives, so he pulled the whistle cord and was rewarded with a weird, mournful grunt, dying away into a gasp. "Sounds like she has the plp," Jack Flaherty remarked to his mate. "Must have taken on some of that dirty Asiatic water," Dan Hicks soliloquized, "and now her tubes have gone to glory." Immediately both tugs kicked ahead under a dead slow bell, guided by a series of toots as brief as Mr. Gilney could make them, and presently both tug lookouts reported breakers dead ahead. Dan Hicks sent a man forward to heave the lead under the nose of the Aphrodite, which was edging in gingerly toward the voice. He had a PAGE THREE searclight, but he did not attempt to use it, knowing full well that in such a fog it would be of no avail. Guided, therefore, by the bellowings of Mr. Gibney, reinforced by the shrill yips of Captain Scraggs, the tug crept in closer and closer, and when it seemed that they must be within a hundred feet of the surf, Dan Hicks trained his Lyle gun in the direction of Mr. Gibney's voice and shot a heaving line into the fox. Almost simultaneous with the report of the gun came a shriek of pain from Captain Scraggs. Straight and true the wet, heavy knotted end of the heaving line came in over the Maggle's quarter and struck him in the mouth. In the darkness he staggered back from the stinging blow, clutched wildly at the air, slipped and rolled over among the vegetables with the precious rope clasped to his breast. "I got it," he sputtered, "I got it, Gib." "Safe, O!" Mr. Gibney bawled. "Pay out your hawser." They met it at the taffrail as it came up out of the breakers, wet but welcome. "Pass it around the main-mast, Scraggy," Mr. Gibney cautioned. "If we make fast to the town' bits, the first jerk'll pull the anchor bolts up through the deck." When the hawser had been made fast to the mastmast, the leathern lungs of Mr. Gibney made due announcement of the fact to the expectant Captain Hicks. "As soon as you feel you've got a grip on her," he yelled, "just hold her steady so she won't drive further up the beach when I get my anchor up. She'll come out like a loose tooth at the top of the flood." The Aphrodite forged slowly ahead, taking in the slack of the hawser. Twenty minutes later, after much backing and swearing and heaving of lines the Bodega's hawser was also put board the Maggle. Mr. Gibney judged it would be safe now to fasten this line to the towing bits. Suddenly Captain Scraggs remembered there was no one on duty in the Maggie's engine room. With a half sob, he alldown the greasy ladder, tore open the furnace doors and commenced shoveling in coal with a recklessness that bordered on insanity. When the indicator showed eighty pounds of steam he came up on deck and discovered Mr. Gibney walking solemnly round and round the little capstan up forward. It was creaking and groaning dismally. Captain Scraggs thrust his engine room torch above his head to light the scene and gazed upon his navigating officer in blank amazement. "What foolishness is this, Gib?" he demanded. "Are you clean daffy, doin' a barn dance around that rusty capstan, makin' a noise fit to frighten the fish?" "Not much," came the laconic reply. "I'm a smart man. I'm raisin' both anchors." "Well, all I got to remark is that it takes a smart man to raise both anchors when we only got one anchor to our blessed name. An' with that anchor safe on the foctacle head, I, for one, can't see no sense in raisin' it." "You tarnation jackass!" sighed Gibney. "You forget who we are. Do you spose the steamer Yankee Prince can lay on the beach all night with both anchors out, an' then be got ready to tow off in three shakes of a lamb's tail? It takes noise to get up two anchors—so I'm makin' all the noise I can. Got any steam?" "Eighty pounds," Scraggs confessed, Having for the moment forgotten his identity, he was confused in the presence of the superior intelligence of his navigating officer. "Run aft, then, Scraggs, an' turn that cargo which over to beat the band until I tell you to stop. With the drum runnin' free she'll make noise enough for a which three times her size, but you might give the necessary yells to make it more lifelike." Captain Scraggs fled to the whench. At the end of five minutes, Mr. Glbney appeared and bade him desist. Then, turning his improvised megaphone seaward he addressed an imaginary mate: "Mr. Thompson, have you got your port anchor up?" Scraggs took the cue immediately. "All clear forward, sir," he piped. "Send the bosun for'd an' heave the lead, Mr. Thompson." "Very well, sir." Here The Squarehead, who had been enjoying the unique situation immensely, decided to take a hand. Presently, in sing-song cadence, he was reporting the depth of water alongside. "That'll do, bosun." Gibney thundered. Then, in his natural voice, to Scraggs: "All set, Scraggsy. Guess we're ready to be pulled off. Get down in the engine room and stand by for full speed ahead when I give the word." "Quick! Hurry!" Scraggs entreated as he disappeared through the little engine-room hatch, for the tide was now at the tip of the flood and the Maggie was bumping wickedly and driving further up the beach. Mr. Gibney turned his stoveppe seaward and shouted: "Tugboats, ahoy!" "Ahoy!" they answered in unison. "All ready. Let go gooo!" The Squarehead stationed himself at the bits with a lanten and Mr. Gibney hastened to the pilot house and took his place at the wheel. When the hawers commenced to lift out of the sea The Squarehead gave a warning shout whereupon Mr. Gibney called the engine room. "Give her the gun," he commanded Scraggs. "Pull against them tugs for all you're worth. Remember this is the steamer Yankee Prince. We must not come off too readily." Captain Scraggs opened the throttle, and while the two tugs steadily drew (CONTINUED NEXT ISSUE) Initiative, industry, intrepidity will carry you far.
