Golden Days tells a story of a
prospector in Alaska who, in com.
pany with eight other men, was
walking across Il great icetield. AT
one place IL thin sheet of ice hid
from view Il crack about 3 feet wide.
Tho party approached the crevasse
diagonally, the prospector i'll adj
vance, when suddenly he and the
next man i'll the line slipped through
the thin coating OF ice and tiislp-
pearCl in the chasm below, Thoi1
cries narrowly prevented some of
the others from meeting Il similar
fate.
The second man carried Il gun,
and as he held On to ic the weapon
lodged croaswuys in the crevasse and
enabled him to be rescued, but the
prospector went down at least Is
feet and was tightly jammed be,
tween the walls of ice.
Ho could not be seen, but his voice
could be distinctly heard directing
tho movements OF his rcscuers.
Blankets were torn into strips and
tied into a rope. This was lowered
to the imprisoned man, who fastened
one end around his body. When the
rope was pulled, however, it was
found that he was jammel in so
tightly that he could not be moved
without tearing him usunder.
The roscu@rs were in Il quandary
but the imprisoned man suggested
that they lower him a Ratchet, and
when this was done he chopped
himself loose i'll short order. Alto.
gether he was 20 minutes in the icy
tomb, and it was Il week before he
recovered from the shock.

1t Was Invested at Gloucester by - Sui,d-
Hr Oh IlshI,E We. ,ris.

- " 'E' As'Ns leu iAt rIbutSNttf ny
ec oi Fishing Ves'ei-.
The schooner WAS invented at
Gloucester by a builder OF fishing
vessels, History records that Cap
tain Robinson built ana rugged Il
ketch, ~ they We're then called,
masted and rugged it in peculiar
manner; when launched, the pecul-
inr motion she made as she glided
into the water from the stocks caus-
ed one of the bystanders to eXclaim,
oh, how she scoonst Robinson
instantly dashed Il bottle of rum
against her bow and exclaimed, A
sooner let her bet And thus the
schooner originated" This event
happened IN l,l3, and three years
later mention is made of the en-
ployment Of il "scooner' i'll the fish
cries off Cape Sable, Nova Scotia.
The invention of the schooner waa
an important event to the New Eng
land fisheries, for its rig has been
found, after nearly two centuries of
trial, well adapted to fishing vessels
employed i'll the western Atlantic.
1t has been materially improved,
however, since its adoption, and the
lofty, yachtlilie fishing clipper of
today bears little resemblance to its
ancient prototype, even though the
rig remains the same in principle.
Immediately after the Revolution
airy wan the adoption of the "Che-
bacco boat" became quite general,
especially along the north shore OF
Massachusetts These diminutive
craft, at first ranging from about
five to ten tons, derived their spe-
citic namc from Chebacco, now a
part of the town OF Essex, Mass.
where they originated. Cat rugged,
with two masts, they were handy"
boats and became SO popular that
they could be met with on almost
all of the inshore grounds In later
years, when some were as large as
from Is to 20 tons, they grew more
venturesomc, and their cruises eX.
tended to the OffshOre banks.
Indeed tradition tells of some GO
ing as far as the West Indies during
the embargo period, carrying out
cargOcS CT fish and returning with
rum, sugar OF molusses. The diff
Guilty OF intercourse ut that time
often made these ventures profitable
and apparently less risk was taken
in these dininutive vessels than in
larger craft.
As early as 1920 the pinky began
to supelsedc the Chebacco beat.
This was similar in form to tho lat
ter, being a sharp sterned craft, but
it was larger and carried a bow
spirit and jib, thus having full
schooner rig. 1t was most generally
i'll Use north Of Cape Cod until about
1910. III :hc meantime square stern
schooners, usually with low quarter
decl,s-thua distinguished from the
Old fashioned high quarter deck
craft of tie Marblehead type-were
built, and ion some years after the
last mentioned date they were gen
orally preferred to all others. Pros
pel'ity led to continued improve
mcnt, and about the middle of tho
century Il material change was made
in the introduction of the modern
clipper scllconers. Joseph William

Civil service reform IN New York

tack from the leaders of the Rcpub-
lican administration, among them
Gov. Black, who supports the bill
now before the legislature which
practically abolshcs the merit sys-
tenn and who is accused of making a
disastrous political blunder. The
conservative men of the party are
against 1t, however, and there is
more than an even chance for it's de-
feat, or if not, for Il severe amend
mcnt of the measure which would
take from it most of its objectionable
features. The League of Republic
can Clubs of America is also re.
sponsiblc for an attack on the merit
system which Is likely to be more
destructive and corrupting in its ef-
feet and to lead to Il return of parti-
san domination and spoils- grabbing
in the handling of public offices.
The League asks the president to
place some forty thousand offices,
now protected by the merit system,
in reach of the spoils hunters and
clamorous partsans, but it is doubt
full If such an absurd demand, which
would be followed by partial de-
moralization Of the public service.
