The captain did his ut- most to break him of this habit, and, everything else failing, told° him that the next time lie was drunk he would write it in the log. For a long time after this the mate stopped drinking. Thereupon the captain wrote the follow- ing entry in the log : - "August 12, 19-; -00 degrees north longitude, 70 degrees west latitude. Mate Jones is drunk to-d•ay." The mate begged him to take this off, saying that it would. spoil his chances of ever being made captain of a ship. But the captain said, "It's true, isn't it?" "Yes; but"—replied the mate. "Well," said the captain, "the record stands" ' A few days later the mate had to writs* the entry.
