LOLLLOLLLLGLLLLLOGL LSS S BOGGGLGLOGGGGGGOGGGGY| THE CAPTAIN OF - THE SHIP BY DR. FRANK CRANE. . The captain of an ocean liner is one of the most striking figures of this day. He represents a curious combina- tion—he 1s a business man, for he must look after many interests purely commercial; he is mathema. ticlan, for he must know the ele ments of navigation; he must be bookkeeper enough to keep his ac- counts straight; he is the company's hired man; he must be jack of all trades enough to do what every man under him can do, and he s required to be a well dressed gentleman. _Perhaps no other position in the world puts upon a man such a load ofv personal - responsibility, What- ever happens to that ship or on board that ship it is directly upon the cap- tain that the responsibility is sau- dled. "Ho stands alone between his cargo and vessel, property worth often millione of dollurs, and de- struction; between a great cityful of human beings and death. “While his"ship is afloat at sea he {4 the greatest autocrat in the world, No sultan, King or jailer is vested with 50 much authorf He has ab- solute control over cvervthing and everybody on the ship. He can im- prison any one of the passengers or orew. In cortain exigencies he can take life.
