REV. DIR. ANNA SHAW.

Clay Of Kentucky spoke for that state,
telling of satisfactory progress in the
recognition of women upon state
boards and in social boards and in So
cial legislation asked for by women.
The rest of the afternoon was devoted

which were in the main encouraging
to the suffrage workers. In the even
ing reception was given the delegates
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. F. M.

RELIEF FOR SUFFERERS.
Chicago Citizens Respond Promptly ia

Mayor swift's Appeal.
CHICAGO, Jan. 27.-The quick re-
Spouse of the citizens to Mayor Swift's
appeal has resul0d in the relief Of suf-
fering in Chicago with rapidity and to
an extent far beyond expectations.
Through the systematic canvass Of the
police and the prompt attention to the
cases reported by the officers, it is safe
to say that but few persons are suffer-
ing in Chicago from cold or hunger.
During the past 48 hours not less than
1900 families were supplied through
the police with food and fuel.
The work of the police has been rein
forced by that of the letter carriers,
who, acting on Postmaster Hesing's or
der, gathered the names of the unfor.
Inmates on their routes. The work of
the Salvation Army was far reaching
and was of great advantage in the re-
lief work. Mayor Swift was busy all
day receiving subscriptions to the re-
lief fund.

cum and Yacht Spray.
Started in 1895 to Circumnavigate
the ClObe-Last Heard From
In Auckland, N. Z.

PROVIDENCE, r. l., August "a
Captain Josiah Slocum, who sailed
from Boston April "a, 1895, with the
intent of circumnavigating the globe
in cookie shell, is probably lost His
daughter, who lives in Attleboro, has
heard nothing from him for sometime,
and it is believed that his little boat
Spray has been overcome in an ocean
storm. Captain Slocum kept those at
home posted as to his movements, and
when the weeks and then months
passed without word of any kind from
him the fear became the belief that he
was no more
Captain Slocum has had an adven-
turous seafaring life extending over
more than 40 years. He has command
ed the following vessels: Banks Con-
stitution wrecked in Samoa B. A
Mar Amethyst, Aquidneck (of which
he was owner) and the ship Northern
Light. He was also navigating officer
of the war machine Destroyer when on
her voyage to Brazil to annihiIate, for
and on account of President PieXoto,
the navy of the rebel Admiral Mello.
One of the most dangerous of his adj
and his wife and two children made of
5000 miles from Paranguilla, Brazil, to
New York in 40-foot boat made of
timbers from the wrecked Aquidneck
Captain Slocum's last enterprise was
the most dangerous of ALL He started
from Boston on April "a, 1895, as has
been said, alone in the 30-foot boat
Spray. which he rebuilt at Fairhaven.
He took with him no more than the
bare necessaries of life. He sailed from
Boston across the Atlantic, steering
for the Azores. He arrived there July
"a, 1895. He then proceeded to Gibral-
tar, arriving at that famous strong
hold on August 4. The little vessel
left Gibraltar August 6, headed to- |
wards Rio Janeiro, Brazil, which was |
reached early in November. A month |
later he visited Buenos Ayres. After /
leaving this port he sailed through the
Straits of Magellan and touched at the
Island of Juan Fernandez. From there
he sailed to Valparaiso on May 5, 1896, |
and after remaining there for a few
days steered for Australia by way of
Samoa. 1t was a year ago the 1st of
this month that Captain Slocum ar
rived in Samoa. At that time he had
sailed over $4,000 miles in the Spray.
He was met at every port with the
greatest of interest, and the Stars and
Stripes, which he carried at his mast
head. never failed to cause enthusiasm
The Spray sailed from Apia, the
capital of Samoa, early last August,
for Auckland. New Zealand.
From there Captain Slocum planned
to go to Yokohama and then make
his way home by way of India, the
Suez Canal and the various seaports of
Europe and then across the Atlantic,
his voyages early this sum-
mer.
The idea is advanced that Captain
Slocum was drowned during one of
the terrible storms for which the
Southern seas are noted
