In the summer of 1620 the little 180-ton May: flower, starting on her maiden voyage to America, put in at Southampton for repairs. Among the passengers was lender, dark-eyed Girl, Priscilla Mullens—or Molines. Alden saw hei id volunteered fer the voyage to the New World. He was the youngest man in the whole ez pedition, | Aboard the Mayflower wore a band of Pilgrime—honost, simple, hard- working folk, for the most part; deeply religious; bent on founding a eol- ony in North America. In December of 1620 they anchored off a desolate stretch of Jand at witkt {s now Plymouth, Mass. In the first shore boat was John Alden. And he {t was who first set foot in the new colony; leaping from the bow of the boat to a great rock that jutted out into the water—Plymouth Rock. Close behind him landed Capt. Miles Standish; man of iron and leading spirit of the little sroup of colonists. That first winter in bleak New England was one of horror. Starvation, cold and disease levied fearful toll on the handful of newcomers. Among those who died were Priscilia Mullens’s father and mother and brother, and Rose Standish, the captain's delicate young wife. During those terrible months there was Itttle chance to think of love making. But at last the colony took root in the Massachusetts soil and began to prosper. Then it was that Capt. Miles Standish realized he waa lonely, and looked about him for another wife. His choice fell on Priscilla. Left all alone in the world, the girl was bravely doing her share of the colony’e hard work; and, mean- time, was blossoming into glorious womanhood. Standish was more used to fighting than to courting. Moreover he had no time to waste in laying siege te a girl's heart. The cares and duties of @ leader pressed too heavily upofl him, So he decided to do his wooing by proxy. And the man he picked out to plead his cause with Priscilla was young John Alden, Alden, like all the Pilgrims, held Standish in semi-reverential awe. And when the great captain bade him go to Priscilla and ask her to become Mis- tresa Standish he lacked the courage to refuse. Although Alden had long and secretly adored Priscilla, he choked back his own heart's yearnings and dutifully set forth on his mission, He called at Priscilla’a home and, at the first chance, Inunched forth into praine of Standish. He told her of the captain's heroism, his wisdom, his godliness; his fitness to be a husband of whom any woman might be proud, VOLUME 55........cscececseeoeees seveee NO, 19,307 MAKE AN END OF SING SING. ; a W WONDER if the people who furnish copious supplies of indignation for the way beasts are treated in the Zoo could epare a little? If eo, turn it on Sing Sing. The Prison Association in ite sixty- f ninth annual report again urges the State to have done with this vile 4 old mediaeval horror and establish in its place a farm industrial prison fun on civilized lines. Every now and then the people of New York grow hot with shame over unspeakable conditions disclosed at Sing Sing and threaten to tear the place down. Then indignation cools, politicians draw the 4 Blinds and Sing Sing gets another reprieve. ‘ Is it to go on thus fcrever? If it is true that Sing Sing has i Bever been eo crowded as at this moment, then it must also be that it ES. has never held more filth, misery and inhumanity. It is time for New Yorkers to make clear once and for all what they think about Sing Sing and never rest until the State is cleansed of it.

EFORE Yellow taxicabs can accept fares as public hacks they must take out city licenses. This decision, handed down yes- terday by Judge Crain in the Court of General Sessions, up- holds a City Magistrate who imposed a fine of $50 on a Yellow Taxi- ea Company's chauffeur found guilty of soliciting business for an unlicensed Yellow cab. ‘The courts have supplied eanction after sanction to support the taxicab ordinance. The License Bureau has every reason confidently to carry out its provisions. N An amendment to the ordinance, aiming to bring every public wehicle carrying paseengers in the streets of the city under the Meensing power and supervision of the city, was introduced into the Board of Aldermen yesterday. But even the most inclusive definition ef public hacks will not of itself protect either the public or honest taxicab proprietors who are doing legitimate business. ‘ While « competitive taxicab service is adapting itself to the city’s ~ weeds the situation calls above all else for rigid inspection and enforce- ment of the law. The courts are conspicuously doing their duty in upholding the ordinance. It is up to the city to be equally diligent in providing means to enforce it. i a aT : Mayor Mitchel has offered the Corporation Counsel to find out by what right visitors at Brighton Beach are charged fifteen cents to get a Yook at the ocean.
