Panama. although the distance to the former
port is 2500 miles greater 1t is the same
with steerage rates.
1t may be asked why does not passenger
for Panama buy ticket TO New York and
save SO? For the simple reason that if he
stops off at Panama the company will refuse
to turn over his baggage, declaring that 1t
is checked to New York, and to New York
it must so. II a gripsack is carried in the
hand and no other baggage taken then the

many little tricks that are resorted TO In

G. T. Huntington rules the Pacific Mail

Mail is therefore the mere transfer OF
money from one pocket to another.

FLEET RACING.

American canoe as to the superior sailing
of Oxholm. This was seen in going to
windward, when the Glenwood shot away
from the Canuck like an arrow.
Now, the history of the races for the in
ternational cup really tells the story of
the evolution OF the modern canoe. There
are two kinds of types of canoes-those
built for padding and those intended for
sailing. For obvious reasons very little
Roadway has been made in canoe pad
ding. The greatest advance has taken
place in the canoe as q sailing vessel.
Remember, too, that the wonderful i'm
provementS in the art of canoeing have all
come within the past six years. That is to
say, greater progress In canoe racing and
sailing has been made since 1856 than in
the previous twenty years, for in 1866 John
MacGregor published his charming book
entitled "A Thousand Miles in the Rob
Roy Canoe" and that year the sport was
introduced in England and two years later
by W. l.. Alden, of the New York Times,
in America.
The first great improvement in canoe
sailing began, as we have already init
mated, some SIX years ago. Prior to 1886
the racing canoe carried from 100 to 120
pounds of sand or shot as ballast. At the
American Canoe Association meet dur
ing that summer appeared Mr.. Barney's
famous canoe Pecowsic, which had no bal
last at all; the canoeist depended entirely
upon his weight to windward to keep his
boat from upsetting The sails were laced
to the masts and they could not be hoisted,
lowered nor reefed. As Mr.. Barney won
about everything worth winning, shot bags
were thrown overheard. except by few
who chung to the past. A further change
was made that season by c. Bowyer Vaux.
who found that canoe could be sailed
faster if the sailor sat on the weather
deck and leaned far out over the side of
the boat. This position was quickly
adopted by many of his rivals and com
petitors.
Luckily, these changes in canoe racing
came in the nick of time TO be used against
the two Englishmen who came over to
this country quite expecting to carry home
the international cup. Lieutenant Baden
Powell and Walter Stewart We're behind
the times. To their great surprise they
saw American canoeists sailing their boats
from the top of the deck, instead of from
the bottom of the cockpit, and, to

the view is really worth looking at.
Need it be said that all of these elegant
mansions known as cottages are so much
alike that, although you think each the
