eventful voyage around the world alone
in small sloop, the Spray, which he
built himself, outlined before few
friends in the parlors of Mime. Pote in
Carnegie hall in New York the other
evening a project which he hopes to
carry out for the training Of young men
in the science of navigation. His idea is
college ship. He proposes the construo-
tian Of "a vessel after the pattern of the
best American clipper ships, with some
improvements, arranged for the accom-
mediation Of 800 student passengers for
trip of two years around the world,
the time to be spent in steady, practical
work and the desirable recreation that
visits to Oceanica and the orient would
supply. His intention is not to take ap-
prentice boys, but young men who have
already had - s -
and college, ana TO equip them sc nnvf-
gators, capable of handling andldiIect-
ing sailing and steam ships, including
men. of-war.
He purposes hiring the necessary sea-
men for the working Of the ship on its
