Few traders. If any, have i been able to get the advantage of her , in a business deal.

For him are named Smylle channel and Smylletown. which may be seen on the chart. He afterward became United States consul. Strange stories of his do'lngs survive and are told on the Falkland. i»inna« ijuihl^. 4ajk A ,a *.* British \governor of the\ Islands col lected some of the stories, bnt I can-, not learn that they were published. One was to the effect that our state department decided to remove him from office and sent a successor, who. when he called to present Ms creden- , Hals and demand the seal, was kicked ont-by the captain. The ITnlJed States I government had finally to send a war- : ship to remove Smylle.

As the captain Inter sailed i-njvny be planted two shots from his ship's small «un Into the governor's residence. Returning after a six months' cruise, he sent, a letter of apology to the governor, adding that he had -discovered a wreck and recov ered some fine tapestries and furni tures, which he thought the governor might wish; if he would cotno 63 boned he might have his choice of them. The .governor came on board with two guards, who were promptly overpowered ana sent ashore. Cap tain Smylle then put to sen with the governor, whom he made do the conk ing for the crew qf the whaler for several months. \A friend lately returned from the Falkland! tells me that several of the old Islanders vouch for the truth 'of these stories.\ Does any one of our readers know anything about thlB restless captiila. who as a humorist would have en- Joyed the company of one Bnwv. no English Journalist, mentioned In Sutherland Edwards' \Recollections.\ This Bower on a I'arls boulevard once pinched a strange lady's leg and ran an old gentleman \along the street for a considerable distance by the breevb of the trousers and the scruff of the neck.\ He finally varied his amuse ments by a murder—Philip Hale in Boston Herald. \Every Workman in America Should Read - Say* FRANK P.
