BURNSIDE IS»
GOOD OLD SHIP
Will Have Cable Spliced At Four To
day-Fine Old Ship, Good Old
Ship.
_
The cable repair ship Burnside is
expected to have the Valdez-Sitka
cable repaired at four o’clock this
afternoon. The ship had much diffi
culty making the splice becau-e of
bad weather and a blinding snow
storm.
The buoy fastened to the Valdez
,end was blown away by the winds
and the officers of the ship searched
in vain for it and finally when the
weather calmed down they again
grappled for the cable and then made
the connection by Splicing in several
miles of new cable.
The ship left Seattle December 4,
two days after the break, and reached
the scene of he break, off Cape Fair
weather, last Tuesday, but the weath
er was such as to delay the "plicing
b cause it cannot be done when the
vessel rolls.
The officers, however, remained on
the job until the broken ends were
m nded.

Revenge.
(By George Fitch.)
Revenge is the process of making
an enemy feel as bad as he has made
you feel.
In other words. Revenge is the bus
iness of paying back trouble. Howev
er, it is not a very businesslike pro
cess, because the Revenger is never
satisfied with paying back the exact
amount. He would much rather pay
double. IU fact, the man who goes
into the wholesale and retail revenge
business always tr<es to charge him
self 200 per cent interest annually.
If a man gave him a black eye a year
ago he hopes this year to give said
man two black eyes, a scrambled ear
and a pancake nose.
Revenge is a difficult business and
requires ?, good memory. When a
man first goes into the Revenge busi
ness he first accumulates an enemy
ahd then awits t - pay his enemy back,
uttering a low hissing sound mean
while, whenever he thinks of him.
Sometimes he hisses for years before
he gets a chance to place h's heel
on his enemy’s caved-in wishbone and
exclaim: ‘‘Ha, R-r-r-evenge!” But
waiting is part of the game. When a
nlan nas corded up eight or ten ene
mies and is saving a good dose of the
same for each of them he has little
time to do anything but wait and
hiss. The world is, in fact, arlicted
with a large number of citizens who
haven’t done anything but wait for
Revenge for years.
The American Indian, when discov
ered. was a stalwart, agile man with
a good mind and fine prospects. But
Revenge was his specialty. He never
forgot a wrong, and he always paid
hack the doer. Consequently while
the American settler was raising corn,
the American- Indian was crawling
through the underbrush on his elbows
and knees trying to denude the head
of some other Indian, who had called
him a bad word 17 years ago. This
is partially why the American settler
now runs the world while the Amer
ican Indian toddles up to the agency
once a week for heef, and cuts no
figure whatev r in the election re
turns.
Some men’s memories are so bad
that they cannot do anything in the
Revenge line at all. They are forever
designing a horrid fate for some ene
my and then mislaying his name.
ti
These men are fortunate indeed. If
only a passion for Revenge w-as on
ly always accompanied by a bad
memory the mortality statistics of this
land would come down on the run.
