F.nous Steamboat Race.

| The famous race between the Hanni-
bal City and the Ocean Spray occurred
In 1859. Prior to this race the Ocean
Spray had splendid records. The race
was from st. Louis to Keokuk. The
early part Of the race was very close,
and the excitement was intense. When
nearing Bisselrs point, the Ocean Spray
found the Hannibal City passing her.
The mate on the Ocean Spray, one Davis,
becoming desperate, ordered the head of
a barrel of turpentine to be knocked in.
His men were then ordered to dip the
wood in this turpentine before putting
it in the furnace, the object being to
quickly increase the steam pressure.
The Ocean Spray was supposed to carry
only 100 pounds Of steam, but Davis
thought that by putting another niger
on the safety valve" he could run the
pressure up to 200 pounds and distance
his rival. In carrying the dripping wood
to the furnace the track became satu-
rated with turpentine, which caught fire
from the open furnace. The flames quick
" reached the barrel. An attempt was
made to throw the barrel overheard, but
it exploded, and the burning oil being
scattered all around the boat was soon a
mass of flames.
Scott Matson was captain on the Han
nibal City. He was brave and gener-
Gus man, and in this instance these two
qualities made his name famous. Not
withstanding the imminent danger, he
ran his boat alongside the burning one
and rescued every person on board. Da-
Wis, the mate of the burned boat, was
afterward convicted and sent to the peni-
tertiary for such gross violation Of the
eules Of safety. Hewa later pardoned.

and will be in good condition by Satur.
day. The trip is so inexpensive as to en-
able any one to go; there will be good
representation from the park.

Exploded Traditions at Old Yale.

Both South college and the Atheneuln
have their now blasted traditions. As
to the former, it has been alleged in New
Haven-and at least one prominent ar
chaologist has Endorsed the story. Ia:
about tie time the college was built
there was d mysterious hiatus Of grave
stones in the Cd cemetery on the New
Haven green. The tradition then averred
that these stones had been built into the
freplaces of South college, where they
would be found when the structure was
pulled down. Here was the fine hint fo-
a college ghost story, based on a spectral
apparition Of the affronted owner of one
of the stones, but, if ever penned, it is
outlawed now by the discovery that
every fireplace in Old South was Of sim
pie brick.
Then, again, President Stiles diary
notes the confession Of a student that he
had stolen the college Bible, dropped it
between the courses of mason work dur
ing the building Of the Athenaum (11C3),
and that there the sacred volume had
been briclzed up-a myth proved SO now
by the fall Of the Athen9um's wall
without the fiIched Bibles temperance.
