D. DeStaffany, their daughters Phyllis and Doro-j and Mr. DeStaffany, father of the Captain, brought their sail- ipg craft into the harbor Sunday morning enroute to the States, to see the shows they have missed and sleep in the spring beds they have not slept in for many months. The party went west last Aug- A call was made at Juneau and, after crossing the Gulf, several weeks were spent sailing among the Aleutians and visiting out of the} way places to the far Westward. Winter Camp Site As winter approached they found a camp site on the barren coast of in Agripina Bay, about 50 miles southwest of Kanat- They constructed a house of drift wood and into this the little family stored their winter pravisions and settled down, after anchoring their salling craft in a protected cove, to a winter of al- most solitary confinement. Mrs, DeStaffany will say that the winter was a lonely one, but she will also tell one that a great deal by them all. Other than one trip! to Kanatak, made by the Captain in January for mail, the family had no connection with the outside| world. No visitors called, no mail | was had but once, wild birds made Jup a large part of the daily diet iand, all in all, it was a Robinson | Crusoe existence. Many notes were made by Mrs. DeStaffany for her future writing, along with many fine pictures gath- ered during the long winter. Mrs. family, her father C. Comanche be- ing well known for his outdoor stor- ies, besides his several books. Prepare for Voyage With the approach of Spring the Idle Hour was prepared for the voyage south. Camp was broken about two weeks ago and the re- turn to the outside started. As if the lonesome winter was not enough adventure a heavy storm was en- countersd by the party last Thurs- day in the Gulf. Before the sails could be reefed they were both torn to ribbons. . The auxiliary motor was used until a new suit of canvas could be rigged and so little was thought of it that only a passing mention of the storm was entered in the ship's log. May Raise Foxes The. arduous voyage was-made by Capt. DeStaffany to investigate the West Cogst. with a view of, prob- ably, entering the fox raising in- dustry there. ..

MANAGER, PASSES AWAY (Continued from Page One) had | bearable to the Georgian who toss- ed over the managerial reins in dis- gust as mzoscason approached. His Opportunity An opportunity with real back- ing came to Stallings when he as- sumed the management of the Bos- ton Braves in 1913. During the winter preceding that season the club had been purchased by James E. Gaffney, a wealthy New York contractor. He gave Stallings full swing in rounding iue club with the result that he duplicated his feat with the Yankees. Boston had finished last for four seasons, but climbed to fifth in Stalling's first year. That season Johnny Evers .man- aged the Chicago Cubs and when he and Owner Charles W. Murphy | severed diplomatic relations at the Jlose of the campaign, Stallings in- juced Gaffney to take over the Tro- an’s contract. Evers, it was thought, would round out the Braves, but ‘or the first half of the 1914 cam- paign the club floundered about ‘he second division, its natural slace, the experts said. By July, the Braves were back at their old sta- ion, last place. Then they started a spurt. It sontinued into ten weeks' baseball narathon, during which the Braves agsed all other entries, shattered he hopes of the Giants for four traight pennants and closed the eason in front with a margin of en games. The Braves four traight victories over the Athletics n the world’s series marked the irst time the series had been con- ‘ined to that number of games. Product of Farm Manager Stallings was a product »f a Georgia farm, where he was orn in 1866. It was there he un- :onsciously developed his throwing irm and gained control by hurling stones at the stumps of trees.
