Speaking OF the gallant trip OF the little Nautilus,
thc Standards editorial writer wanders spirit back
70 the of tho old explorers and then sketches
some OF the moro remarkable ana adven turous
voyages of modsrp times. ''rhs trip of
sho tiny Nautilus over the wide Atlantic shows US
what can be done by men Of courage. OF what well
buii, vol found yacht is capable We know. What Ba
sen'z did on tho Spitzbsrgen Sess what Columbus did
when he stood boldly out 10 the far West, what Mags
did whom he ven,ured through the straits which
still bear his name, that, In Effect done by Rajah
Brooke, when, In the Royal,st q small topsaii
schooner Of but iortynve tons, he fearessy stcered
round the cape and, regardless of the pirates
fcs the Straits OF Sunda planted tho English flag

which an unwse and short sighted policy refused.
he was the first English yaeh,sman Of modern days
VINO scorned the Soens aud dared vctual bis craft
for ycaE's voyage. Many have followed hin, bu. his
is the first glory. Since then, Lord Duherin and
Mr. Smith have forced thelr way to high
latisudcs.' Mr. Lamont, OF Knockdow. has attacked
the Kara Sea; Captain Allen Young IN the Pandors
has pushed mis- way TO the extreme edgo OF 20 ar

reels OF the Southern Ocean, whiIe Mr. Brassey,

navgated the globe But few Of millionnaires

None the less the trip Of the Nautilus ought to show
