to the effect that the Olympia's boat might
be as good as the Raleigh's, even If site
had never raced before.

nantly; might be! Why, hang it, man,

but better"
This was the signal for such cheering as
made Dewey flush to the roots of his hair.
and his enthusiasm found so swift an echo
among the men that before ten minutes
had passed Mr.. Harper was compelled to
call halt. When the race came off the
Olympia's boat won, to the delight of
Dewey and his crew.
Mr.. Harper promptly paid his bets and
departed sorrowfully. That evening the
admiral called the racing crew into his
cabin and after congratulating them on
their victory presented them with the 800
of his bet, the $50 he had won and the $50
he had bet; for" he said. "if 1t had not
been for you l would have lost it any
way" And cutting short their thanks with
a pleasant laugh, he shook hands with
them all and bowed them out"
