Boston, Dec. 1.-THE British schoon-
er Howard, of l4unenburg, n. S., ar
rived to-day after having experienced
the most terrible passage in the his
tory of her master, Capt. James
I4ohnes. Tremendous seas continually
swept over the vessel, sails spars and
portions Of the deck load were lost,
and SO rough was Massachusetts bay
that she lost IN anchor and was be-
ing driven on the rocks when rescued
by a tug. The vessel was encased in
Ice from tOpmast to water line, and
the crew was suffering terribly from
cold. The Howard left Sherbrooke,
N. S., n week ago with 1900 feet Of
lumber. While engaged in reefing the
fOresail q young boy was swept over
board and lost. The tempestuous
weather in Boston harbor and Massa.
chusetts bay continues. although the
atmosphere is not as thick as it has
been. Shipping is practically at Al
standstin.
New York, Dec. 15.-All the ocean
liners which have arrived during the
last few days have reported very
heavy weather at sea, and when the
big Cunarder Campania reaches port
from Liverpool she will doubtless
have a tale Of terrific gales and high
head seas. If the Campania on this
trip had equalled her westward rec
ord the Sandy Hook lightship would
have been abeam at Bill. Up to noon
she had not been sighted ut Fire Isl
and. The new American liner st.
Paul is also late. Among the belated
steamers for this port are are Bel
aravia, from Shields Nov. %; British
King, from Antwerp Nov. %; Low
lands, from Gibraltar Nov. %, and
eThetis, from Gibraltar, same date.

THE MYRTLE HAS GROWN.
GENESIS OF rms POPULAR AND
SUCCESSFUL BOAT CLUB.
Group Picture Of the Charter Members
Fnterprising Kids The "Red,
White and Blue"

A large group picture Of tn,
charter members Of the Myrtle Boa
Club is on exhibition in the win
dows OF the Pacific Hardware Com
pany. lhe group is composed o
J. l.. Torbert, DR.. Monsarratt, w
Love, Marshal A.. NJ. Brown, A. G.
M. Robertson, Alfred w. Garter
and w. c. Parke.
February IS, 1888, these young
men met in a 10 20 house near
the Pacific Mail wharf and organ
lied the present club. 1t was to
be kid association, the constitu-
ton providing that no person over
eighteen years OF age should be adj.
mitted to membership. Whether this
provision was intended to eventually
demonstrate that boys are more
successful in boating matters the
Constitution does not state.
AT the first meeting the following
officers were elected: President and
Captain, J. l.. Torbert; Vice Presi-
dent, VIM. Monsarrat; Secretary,
A. NJ. Brown; Treasurer, w. Love.
This left Robertson, Carter and
Parke on the floor. All of these
were then boys under rs. 1t is in
teresting to note their respective
careers since and the prominent
positions all now hold in the COM
munity. The Myrtle was the first
boat club organized.
The little boat house referred to
was built by charter members
They had one boat, the Red,
White and Blue, which is extant
and in fairly good trim. This old
boat has never blen beaten by
anything in her class. She is a
relic in the Myrtle Beet House aud
is sometimes taken out for a trial
spin.
In a years time the club moved
over to a two-story house near the
present building. Five races were
entered in the 1884 regatta and the
Myrtles won every one Of them.
The constitution was soon after
amended to admit men over IS
years of age and the roll soon ran
up to sixty names.
During its brilliant career the
Myrtle Boat Club lost three races
in 1886 and one in 1893. Every
thing else gone into was won The
club has a good boat-house, is well
equipped and has always been in a
healthy and thriving condition.
The present officers of this club
are.
President, A. G. NJ. Robertson;
vice-president, David Crozier;
secretary, w. w. Harris; treas.
urer, w. c. Parke; trustees, w.
NJ. McBryde, A. w. Carter, Henry
Giles; captain, Chas. Crane; audi
tor, w. II. Wright.
