Ballers would be thought small craft now.
They were about 400 or 500 tons burden.
They sailed from New York to Liverpool
on the first day Of each month until in 1921,
when the Red Star line was organized. Then
the time between the departure Of vessels
from New York was shortened until finally
they left every week The tonnage gradually
increased until vessels as large as the Henry
Gay, 80 tons. and the New World, 400
tons, were built il the '40's These were the
halcyon days Of the American packet ships.
This era extended to the SOS, but before this
the clipper had come into prominence
The clipper ship was built expressly for
speed. The China and India trade was
growing, and the discovery of gold IN Cal
ifornia had stimulated commerce to won
derful extent. The ships were made narrow
and sharp proved, and ship building goe an
impetus which led TO extraordinary results
Some of the long voyages made in those days
read ike fairy stories now. Eighteen hun
dred and forty three is tie year of the
first clipper. Her name was the Rainbow,
of $50 tons. She made SO much money that tho
Helena, the Eonqua, the Sea Witch and the
Samuel Russell followed shortly afterwards;
snt these vessels were too small, and in 1851
William H. Webb built four clippers, the
largest of which was the Challenge, about
2,OOesSas, the largest clipper ship ever built
IN New York. One OF the most remarkable
vessels OF the time was the Surprise. She
sailed from Liverpool to San Francisco il
ninety-six days, then the shortest time on
record She sailed from San Francisco to
London by way Of Canton, and when she
reached the British capital she had cleared
her cost and running expenses, and besides
this had Melted her owners s50,000i The

GEN. HARRISON MAD.
He Takes a Lady Reporters Book
from Her and Destroys Her Notes


From the ST. Louis Republic.
CINCINNATI, o., Nov. 17.-On Friday a
large delegation of ladies visited Gen. Har-
rison at indianapolis On Thursday Mrs.
s. c. Hazlett Bevis, recently on the e1i-
torial staff of the EUening Post, and well
and favorably known in local newspaper
circles, went over to call on the general in
advance.
In to-morrows issue of the Sunddu TeLe-
gram she will say that after great difficulty
she received an entrance to the house Of
Gen. Harrison, the door being opened by
Mr.. Mckee. There were other ladies' pres
emit. The President-elect was in an adioin-
ing room, talking to a number Of gentle
men. The conversation was so interesting
that she began taking notes.
Up to this time Gen. Harrison had not
apparently been aware of the presence of
the ladies, but in an instant he was on his
feet, and in the language of Mrs. Bevs,
"sprang" to her side and asked her in inn
perious tones II she had taken note of what
he had said He was told "yes, " whereupon
he deliberately took the note book from
Mrs. Bevis' hand and declared his intention
of keeping it. The lady told him the book
contained many things valuable to her
which In no way touched him. Turning
over the book he found the leaves on which
Mrs. Bevis had written and ierled them
from the cover and returned the remains.
The lady explained that she had no inten-
ton of offending and was only doing her
duty to the papers she represented. Harri-
son replied
"Your common sense should teach YOU
better than to come toto my house and make
notes of me and my family and surround
ings 1t Is an insult | will not allow
He was told there was no intention Of in
sulting him. and that she had come on
ahead to seek an interview.
"You or no other reporters can do that"
was the reJoinder.
She was then invited to another room
with the ladies, and the general treated
them very pleasantly there.
Mrs Bevis is a cultured lady. who goes in
the best society. She has had years of
newspaper experience, and her word may
be unhesitatiDgly accepted.
