Dramatic Incident In the Ezrj
History of Our Navy
THE PLOT ON THE OLD ESSEX
Commodore Porter Got Wind of ih
Conspiracy Just as It Was Rips arid
His Prompt and Drastic Action Cow
ed tha Crew and Saved tho Shp
There has never been a fleet mutiny
or a squadron mutiny in the United
States navy The most notorious ease
in the uavnl history of this country
was the conspiracy to mutiny on the
brijr of war Somer which was discov
ered before It came to a head and re
sulted in the execution at sea of Philip
Spencer midshipman son of the then
secretary of war and one petty officer
and one seaman
Another famous case was the one in
which Commodore Porter acted with
such vigor and promptitude that lie
completely crushed the rebellious spirit
that had manifested Itself and saved
his ship
When Commodore Porter was in com
mand of the Essex in thiO early history
of our navy there was an attempted
mutiny ou board Ilere is an account
of how it was suppressed which is
vouched for as authentic While the
Essex was lying at the Marquesas is
lands recruiting and refreshing her
crew from one of the long and arduous
cruises in the Pacific Commodore Por
ter was informed through a servant of
one of the officers that a mutiny had
been planned and was on the eve of
consummation that it was the inten
tion of the mutineers to rise upon the
officers take possession of the ship aad
after having remained as long as they
found agreeable at the island to hoist
the black flag and cruise on their own
account
Having satisfied himself of the truth
of the information Commodore Porter
ascended to the quarterdeck and or
dered all the crew to be summoned aft
Waiting until the last man had come
from below he informed them that he
understood that a mutiny was on foot
and that he had summoned them for
the purpose of inquiring into its truh
Those men who are in favor of stand
ing by the ship and her officers said
the commodore will go over to the
starboard side those who are against
them will remain where they are The
crew to a man moved over to the star
board side The ship was still as tin
grave Fixing his eyes on them stead
ily and sternly a few moments the
commodore said Robert White step
out The man obeyed standing pale
and agitated guilt stamped on every
lineament of hii countenance in front
of his comrades
The commodore looked at him
moment then seizing a cutless from
the nearest rack said in a suppressed
voice but in tones so deep that they
rang like a knell upon the ears of the
guilty among the crew Villain You
are the ringleader of this mutiny
Jump overboard The man dropped
on his knees imploring for mercy say
ing that he could not swim Then
drown you scoundrel said the coin
modore springing toward him to cut
him down Overboard instantly
And the man jumped over the side of
the ship He then turned to the trem
bling crew and addressed them with
mucli feeling the tears standing upon
his bronzed cheek as he spoke He
asked them what he had done that his
shp should be disgraced by a mutius
He asked whether he had ever dis
honored the flag whether he had ever
treated them with other than kindness
whether they had ever been wanting
for anything to their comfort that dis
cipline and the rules of the service
would allow and that it was in his
power to give
At the close of his address he said
Men before I came on deck 1 laid a
train to the magazine and I would
have blown all on board into eternity
before my ship should have been dis
graced by a successful mutiny 1
never would have survived the dis
honor of my ship Go to your duty
The men were much affected by the
commodores address and immediately
returned to their duty showing every
sign of contrition
But mark the sequel of this mutiny
and let those who In the calm se
curity of their firesides are so severe
upon the course of conduct pursued by
officers in such critical situations see
how much innocent blood would have
been saved if White had been cut
down instantly or hanged at the yard
arm As he went overboard he su
ceed 1 in reaching a canoe floit ing at
a little distance and padded ashore
Some few months affrward whe i
Lieutenant iambic of I lie marines
wxs at tli islands in charge of one of
the large prizes short handed and in
distress tins same White at the head
of a party of native attacked til
ship killed two of the officers and a
nuJibp of me1 and it was with great
difficulty that she was prevented from
falling into their hands Xew York

SUSIES TERRIFIC SPEED
A veteran bail player who has bat

pitchers in the last twenty years nam

There have been many fast pitch
ers in baseball and all of them in their
time when they cut loose for fair have
balllcd the best of hitters with their
speed but you will notice that when
fast pitchers are spoken of the one
If Rusie hit a man the man retired
from the game and sometimes went

The late Rev Horatio Stebbins of
San Francisco was a man of large
mind and noble powers but more fa
miliar with the world of intellectual
and scholastic interests than with triv
ial and timely things His household
was blessed with a charming daughter
who grew up tall and beautiful com
manding the admiration of all who saw
her
One day a visitor said to the good
doctor Doctor your daughter grows
more charming day by day Why
shes a regular Gibson girl
Ah thank you thank you replied
the doctor in his best manner When
the visitor had gone turning to his
wife the doctor asked My dear who

A Change For the Better
The nine-year-old boy of a Baltimore
family who Is compelled by his par
ents to practice daily upon the piano
may not be a clever performer but he
has a pretty shrewd notion of the
worth of an instrument as well as a
rather mature wit as is evidenced by
an incident in the household not long
since
His father upon returning home
from a weeks absence heard the lad
plugging away at the piano
When did you learn that new piece
son asked the parent
It isnt new piece dad answer
ed the boy The piano has been
tuned Lippincotts
She Won
He was a philosopher and a talker
She was a woman of action They
stood together on the bridge and
watched a tug that was hauling a long
line of barges up the river
Look there my dear said he
Such Is life The tug is like the man
working and toiling while the barges
like the women are
His wife gave him no time to finish
the sentence I know she said
The tug does all the blowing and the
barges bear all the buiden
Not So Bad

else that ever lived When you say
fast as Rusie you dont mean it
either you only wish to show thati
your favorite pitcher In a very speedy
boy
Words fail really to describe the
speed with which Rusie ent the ball
no was a man of great width great
strength and the ability to put every
ounce of his weight Into the pitch
Coupled with this he had a set of
zling curves which were manufactured
with the same effort required to pro
duce the speed Some men can throw
a straight ball with great force but
have fo Inw up in order to develop
curves but Ruie drove in a curved
ball with all of his tremendous power
Facing Rusie to a timid man was
like going info battle must be to an
Inexperienced soldier The distance
was shorter then Rusie had the
whole box to move around in instead
of being chained to a slab and he
simply drove the ball at you with the
force of a cannon I have stood up
to all the great pitchers of nearly
twentj years I have seen scores of
them come and go and none of them
Inspired the terror in a batsmans
heart that was put there by the
mighty Rusie The ball was like a
white streak tearing past you without
time to balance yourself figure the
course of the ball or take aim at it
The fellows with the wide curve might
fool you into reaching out and missing
them but you werent reaching out at
Rusie you simply swung at a white
streak as it hurled past and if you
took a full arm swing the ball was
gone and in the catchers hands before
you had half finished the swinging
motion
The convincing proof of Rusies ter
rible speed was this If any other

FOUGHT IN THE TREES
Curious Duel Between a Pair of Firo
Eating Frenchmen
In the swashbuckling days of the
early part of the nineteenth century
the dueling hero in France was the
Marquis Merle de SaUite Marie whose
affairs of honor were almost incessant
One of these is said to have been so
ridiculous that it helped to set in mo
tion the current of feeling that has
since made dueling so much less hon
orable than it once was
It appears that one day there called
upon the marquis one Pierrot dIssac
Hi
famous duelist Now in
French pierrot means sparrow and
merle means blackbird
DIssac struck himself on the chest
with eirnhatic dignity Marquis
said he I am a Bouapartist and you
are a royalist Moreover I am the
sparrow and you are the blackbird
It seems to me that there is one bird
of us too many
I quite agree with you monsieur
politely replied the marquis and my
choice is pistols and as Is appropriate
for birds of our species let us fight in
the trees
Pierrot dIssac was agreeable to this
unique suggestion and as If it were
not a sufficiently ridiculous thing that
one man should challenge another be
cause his name was Sparrow and the
other PIackbird the duel was actually
fought from trees The seconds stood
on the ground below
At a given signal the pistols were
fired and there was a rustling among
the leaves of one of the chestnut trees
Pierrot dIssac came tumbling to the
ground like a ripe chestnut as one
of Sainte Maries seconds expressed it
whereupon Merle de Sainte Marie in
a facetious mood began to chirp tri
umphantly in imitation of the song of
the blackbird DIssac waited till he
had recovered from his wound an
then challenged Sainte Marie for the
chirp
This time there was nothing amus
ing about the encounter It was
fought with swords and Sainte Marie
was Indly wounded The sparrow had
avenged himself on the blackbird

FORBES GREAT FEAT
ewspapcr Story of the Last Days
of tho Commune
One morning after the siege of Paris
when the city was believed In London
to be still in the hands of the com
mune Sir John Robinson manager of
the Daily News of London reached his
swore offlce t0 jn1 tIje Iat0 Archibald Forbes
lying ou the floor asleep his head on a
postofhee directory while the printers
were hard at work on his manuscript
the story of Paris In Flames a
vivid description of the last days of the
commune
Forbes had telegraphed from Dover
announcing his coming said Sir John
Robinson the printers had been wait
ing and thus the country heard of
those terrible days for the first time
London was ablaze with excitement
Bouverie street was Impassable through
the newsboys shrieking for copies and
in parliament Mr Gladstone was ques
tioned that afternoon and could only
say he hoped the story was exagger
ated
When Forbes wakened from his
slumber amid all this turmoil what a
spectacle he was His face was black
with powder his eyes red and in
flamed his clothes matted with clay
and dust He was a dreadful picture
He had been compelled to assist the
communists In defending a triangular
space upon which three detachments of
the Versailles troops were firing and
had actually taught the citizens how to
build a barricade
By aid of dummy dispatches address
ed to Lord Granville and the queen
Forbes escaped from this threatening
triangle and wrote all the way to Eng
land being the solitary passenger on
the mall boat

A person calling on this painter
heard a most infernal uproar in his
studio Things eemed to be falling
and brass plates Hying about and there
were loud shouts
The servant came to the door in a
state of great anxiety and told the vis
itor at once that the master could not
be disturbed
