But at sea the first thought is r mor the life of the captain. It is for the ship. “Save the ship,” is the law of the sea. : . when Capt. Johnson found himself off his course and fm the terrible breakers of Peacock spit, he did what every good mariner does, tried to save his ship. Had he let her drive and put the oil tanker high up on the sand, a total loss, she would have rested within reach of the life savers, and the men would have had a chance But he took the one chance in a thousand and dropped both anchors while she still had water under her keel—and lost. This law of the sea don’t always lose, you know The steamer Washington was caught in the same spot last winter and the captain did the same thing ‘ He won, and saved all but two of the sixty souls in his care. and 29 dead men, of whom he is ¢ first and last rule intrusted with not for the lives of the men, is not cruel, as it seems, They WHY, CERTAINLY! A morning paper carried a headline, a few days ago: “Booming J. J. Hill for Wilson Cabinet; Bankers Start the Ball Rolling ; Whereupon a fellow who seems to have a fairly well- developed sense of humor wrote to another morning paper follows : ; : be: “The portfolio for which Mr. Hill is being boomed is that of secretary of agriculture. ‘ “For fear that his friends, through disinterestedness, may stop with this one suggestion, a pele cabinet in harmony | with the foregoing is herewith suggested: “Secretary of State—J. P. MORGAN & CO. “Secretary of the Treasury—KUHN, LOEB & CO. “Secretary of War—THE UNITED STATES STEEL CORPORATION. “Secretary of the Navy—CRAMP & CO. . “Secretary of the Interior—GUGGENHEIM EX- PLOITATION CO. “Secretary of Agriculture-THE INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER CO. “Secretary of Commerce and Labor—THE NEW YORK, NEW HAVEN & HARTFORD RAILROAD co. “Attorney General—ELIHU ROOT. a Postnescer General—_THE ADAMS EXPRESS co.” THE SOCIAL SIDE. In his article on the selection of Miss Belle Hagner as social secretary to Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, ~Gilson Serines today gives us a fine view of the social xdoodle tna ational capital, although it takes a personal visit to Wash- ington to enable one to realize the importance attached to “heed custom,” “questions of precedence,” and the like. Admiral Dewey has been a great popular hero, yet we learn that he misses some invitations to dinners because he insists that he should be given the same rank as the presi- dent on entering a dining room, since he and the os] are the only ones who get a naval salute of 21 guns, F Then, there's rough and ready Joe Cannon who, being speaker, refused to go into dinner behind a U. S. senator. Note, too, that members of the house, the direct repre- sentatives of the great people, have to troop in behind vice- presidents, justices of the supreme court, ambassadors, cabinet Officers, senators, the admiral of the navy and the lieutenant- general of the army.
