VOYAGE OF THE VIKING SHIP.
The Departure From Norway TO Be
Made Early in April.
From the Nep York Times.

From the Nes York Times.
The Viking ship fitting out in Norway 70
be sent 90 the Chicago exposition was
launched without accident Feb 4, al
Saudefjord, Norway. 1t was christeued
the Viking and it carried the Norwegian
flag at the stern, and American flag in the
bow, and the red standard with a golden
lion at the masthead Besides these flags
it will carry the flag of the old-time Nor
wegian Vikings, a red square with black
raven, on it's voyage across the Atlantic.
After the launch, which was ATTENDED By
prominent men from all parts Of Norway,
the ship was taken in tow by tug. and
proceeded to Christiania, where the ship
will be rugged and fitted out. On this FIRST
voyage the tugboat and its charge were
caught In the ice about half way between
the two places, and, as gale was blowing
at the time, the Viking had narrow
cape from being wrecked by the heavy ics
foes. The crew, however, worked heTol-
cally and got the vessel through the Ice
after two days suffering, during which
several of them came near freezing TO
death.
The captain Of the ship will be Msguus
Anderson, who, in the summer Of 1886, st-
tempted to sail from Norway to New York
in an eighteen-foot open boat, accompanied
by only one assistant. This voyage diff
fered from most made across the Atlantic,
in that 1t was not undertaken for the sake
of personal gain and notoriety, but TO DEM
onstrate to shipowners and seafaring men
what can be done with a well-proyisoned
lifeboat in case of shipwreck in mid
ocean.
Capt. Anderson had reached the New
foundlRnd banks when his boat was turned
bottomside up bv an immsnss wave, which
washed away everything except the skipper
and his crow of one man. For thirty hours
they worked away before they agstn COS
their boat on even keel. AS their instru-
ments and charts had been lost they we're
compelled to abandon the trip and board
passing ship.
The Grew of the Viking has been selected
from a list of 280 volunteers, all goto
sailors, and ia undoubtedly made up OF the
best material which Norway can produce
The Viking will leave Norway early IN
April, and it is supposed that she will MAKE
a quick voyage acoss. Her first landing In
this country will be made at Newport, X.
l., whence she will pass down the sounds
then He'll Gate and East river, and then BY
way of the Hudson river and Erie canal 10
the lakes.
The committee which has been formed 10
give the ship a suitable reception Is are
ranging to tow her through the East river
on the first Sunday after her arrival az
Newport, so as TO give everybody inter
ested a chance TO inspect her. Invita-
tlons will be sent to all the different yacnb
clubs in the city to cooperate in these cers
monies.
