on their journey on October 8. A
milk wagon took them to Roby. There
they boarded passenger train, and
when the conductor proposed to put
them off some drummers paid their
way to Hammond. With other help
they reached indianapolis, where they
got job at selling neckwear in q
clothing house at $40 day. They

and their employer was 10th to part

they began to selling newspapers. At

Mr.. Morrill, in speaking of the trip, $50 we

that no one who goes ON a long trip should
go without cyclometer. 1t enables him
to determine whether he can make the dis
tances between towns in the time left before
darkness sets in. In going from one place
to another the cycle tells what distance
one can make, and knowing the distance
from one stopping-place to another, one
can tell If that distance can be covered
within given time.
THE roads were in many places pretty
steep, and on account of the ladies we were
forced to dismount and walk. Then the
dust and the heat both worked to make the
trip at times tiresome. The ladies and the
boys stood itwell and we're not particularly
fatigueG when we reached Santa Barbara.
This ride has demonstrated to me the
value OF the rational bloomer costume for
ladies who ride the wheel. If those who
were with us had not had such costumes
they could not have reached the journeys
end. We travelled light all the way taking
no lunch along, but depending upon reach
ing places where we could find food and
shelter.

ney of which l feel proud, and that is that

THE LURLINE AHEAD.

Description Of the Prizes to Be Given the
Yachts This Evening,
SANTA CRUZ, CAL, July EARLY this
morning preparations were made to re-
ceive the feet of yachts from San Fran
cisco. The gun used for testing the pow
der at the California works was placed in
position at Lighthouse Point to signal the
arrival of each yacht and notify the skip
per of the craft that the line was passed.
The swift Lurline was the first to cross
the point, arriving at 4 :04 P. NJ. AT 4:39 80
O'Clock the Oracle S arrived. Following
her came the Annie at 80 and the n ellie
at $40. This gave the Lurline the race
and first prize, a solid-silver tureen. The
Annie, calculating time allowance, got sec
ond, and the Oracle S third.
The three beautiful prizes offered by the
Santa Cruz committee will be presented to-
morrow evening. The first prize is solid
silver soup tureen, the second champagne
cooler, and the third toddy kettle. These
articles, always handy about a yacht, are
of beautiful design, and represent artistic
workmanship, The presentation to win
ners will take place at the Pacific Ocean
House, where an invitation ball in COM
pliment to the visiting yachtsmen will be
given by Mr.. and Mrs. ]. +. Chace of the
hotel.
Speaking of the speedy trip from the
Golden Gate to Santa Cruz, John D..
Spreckels said tonight: 'This is the best
time made by the Lurline since her run six
years ago, when she came down III hours
and 20 minutes. The time to-day was
hours and 40 minutes. We carried every
thing that would draw"
Alex Swanson said: "The Lurline
spread 5000 feet of canvas. After passing
Pigeon Point we put up the balloon stay sail.
When the Lurline made her famous run
SIX years ago she had half gale and could
not carry so much canvas"
Charles NJ. Shortridge said the trip was
delightful in every respect. A speed of
thirteen knots an hour was maintained
when the yacht got the wind.
ID. NJ. DelmaS, Ed f. Preston and VIII
liam Cunningham, who were aboard the
Lurline, were equally delighted. Mr. Del
mas remarked that he had never had a
better sail.
Commodore Caduc of the flagship Annie
mentioned the delights of the trip to a
host of friends in Santa Cruz. The yachts
men are partaking of the hospitality of
