Capt. Cloud man FaSt Getting Ready
forthe beginning of His Long VOy-
age.
The Outing will not start on her cir
cumnavIgating trip to-day. 0fcourse on
such long trip matter OF two or three
days is not SO very important. Capt.
Cloudman has hoped all along that ne
would be ready TO hoist anchor and get
under way this afternoon. he has found
so many things that bad to be done, how
ever, that start TO day Is impossible;
Yesterday he was set back by the rain and
did not get his sails rugged or as much
painting done as he expected. He Is
very gradually accustoming himself TO
some of the sides Of jack tar's
life. On Wednesday he slipped through
a hole IN the dock and got partial soak
ing. Yesterday he went one better and
cot wet twice. His plan Is on the same
principle as the Lord High EXecutioner's
when that functiOnRry bestOWs bis ward
upon the wandering minstrel, and bids
them begin loving "by Degrees" so that
he can get used to it.
AS start Will not be made to-day the
yacht will not be brought over on this
side OF the river before Sunday morning.
A great many have evinced a desire to
see the yacht and Capt. Cloudman pro-
poses 10 have the boat on exhibition on
this side OF the river before he starts, and
visitors will be welcome. He has already
had among his visitors number OF ladies'.
There is quite demand for photo
graphs OF the sloop and her master and
the pictures are TO be offered as sort of
chrome with subscriptions of the maya
zine. The Outing will carry a small boat
and portable folding canoe. The latter
can be folded together like u camp stool
and with seat and double paddle does not
weigh more than twenty pounds.

THE WATER GAINING.
Divers Trying to Find the Leak in
the 'sI5eneyolent.-


the "ISenevolent.-
The work on the British steamship
Benevolent still continues, but tue pump
ing Is very slow and without any appar-
ent gain on the leak, owing to the sue
tons being continuously choked by wet
cotton. A diver went down yesterday af.
ternoon to examine the bottom of the ship
and to locate the leak, but failed 10 find it.
He will continue diving to-day for that
purpose. Ali the cotton except about
eighty bales has been taken out of the
forward compartment. The stevedores
are breaking out the cotton aft. About
1000 bales have been taken
out of the vessel altogether, 600 bales
OF which came out Of the after
hold. 1t is very difficult work, and some
OF the steyedores stand in the hold with
the water clear up to their necks. Num-
bers Of graphing hooks are lost ia the
water and cannot be recovered. The six
pumps still continue going, but they make
very little Roadway on account OF the loose
cotton. ills thought that the leak will be
found to-day, and as soon as the cotton
is Olsen rged the vessel will be hauled
out.

ton of the Week,
Kate Castleton played to good audi
ence yesterday afternoon and closed her
engagement here in ''Crazy Patch" last
night.
Tomorrow night Mestayer's "We, Us
& Co" will be produced. The piece is
very funny and the company includes halt
dozen Of the cleverest comedians and
condolences who have talent enough to
make almost anything go. Mestayer and
the lovely Theresa Vaughn made
hits in the "Tourists" CON-
pany. Bernard Dillyn made a
trip to England last summer
and picked up number of new songs.
The Nashville Union said OF the per-
formance there: 1T is indeed q surprise
to find such q lot OF really phenomenal
voices in purely comedy organization. ;"
George Richards and Gus Bruno are we'll
known comedians, and Nellie Cox ia o
bright soubrette, who made q hit last
year in "Tally Ho." Humorous dia-
logues and comical situations and songs
are the features of the piece.

THANKSGIVING SERMONS.

Themes Discussed From the Pulpits
The Union Service.
The sharp rain shower that came up so
suddenly just about the time the first
bells began ringing. kept a great many
away from the Thanksgiving sermons.
The Presbyterian, Methodist, Baptist and
Lutheran congregations held union SER
vice at the First Presbyterian Church on
Monterey square. Rev. J. w. Rogan, the
pastor OF the church, was absent, being
in attendance at meeting OF the Synod.
The sermon was delivered by DR.. Bacon,
of the Independent Presbyterian Church.
la the pulpit were DR.. w.
Lutheran Church of the Ascension; Rev.
Richard Webb, of Penfield Mariners
Church; Rev. Il. Il. Christian, OF Trinity
Nj. e. Church, aud Rev. J. Il. l.. Holmes, of
the Savannah Baptist Church. Rev. w.
G. Lovett, Of Wesley Monumental Church,
and Rev. |. S. X. Axeon, OF the lndepend
ent Presbyterian Church, occupied seats
among the congregation. All of the
preachers in the pulpit assisted In the
service. The choir was large and rem
dered fine music. DIR. Bacon's text was

was described ID some Of the newspapers
OF fifteen years ago, that came to us
crowded with descriptions and incidents
OF the burning OF Chicago; the scene that
was witnessed among some thousands OF
forlOrn families huddled In shivering
groups over piles of their rescued house
hold stuff on the open prairie, in the red
light OF their blazing homes. Presently
among the fearful and anxious multitude
the low notes OF a song began 10
be heard. No one knew how it
began-perhaps In the grooming
Of some mother over her baby, snatched
from Its imperiled cradle; perhaps in the
emotion OF some agitated heart swelling
In q half conscious murmur TO the lips.
However IL began, IL spread from lip to
lip, from group to group, till the wide
prairie resounded with the strain
Praise God from whom ali blessings flow,
and again and again the song was taken
up by the multitude OF voices, accompa-
MED by the moan OF the night wind and
the roar and the crackle OF the confiagra-
ton that was fast devouring all their
wealth.
