caedings a large number of disappointed
persons quilted the courtroom, leaving
perceptible gaps along the benches.
Gen. Fabre of the general staff was the
first to testify. He related how he COM
pared captured letter conveying treas
enable documents to the handwriting of
Dreyfus, and what a remarkable resem-
blance there was between them. The
witness said that besides the general con-
duct of the accused was suspicious. M.
Demange asked Gen. Fabre why he was
so positive about these things, when at
the court-marital in 1894 he claimed to
have had no personal knowledge Of Drey
fus. Fabre's previous evidence to this

effect was then read. AS the wide dis
crepancy between that and his present
testimony became evident, the witness
grew red and stammered an explanation.
Capt. Dreyfus then questioned the wit
ness and insisted that Fabre was wrong
in his details
Col Aboville then testified to the same
effect as Gen. Fabre, telling Of the iden-
tifcation of the prisoners handwriting
with that of reasonable papers. He was
sure Dreyfus had written them. NJ.
Cochefert the detective who arrested
Dreyfus, next testified. He told of the
test made by de Clam, who dictated part
of the bordereau to Dreyfus. He said the
accused exhibited great emotion, as he
had also when placed under arrest.
Next came Gribelin, recorder of the
general staff. He argued that Dreyfus
was guilty, and that Col. Picquart's evil
dence was manufactured. Capt. Dreyfus
then arose, and, speaking calmly, pro-
ceeded to refute the testimony of Coche-
fort and Gribelin. He related the scene
of the dictation test. Il remember it per-
fectly," said Dreyfus. Il came in from
a cold room, where | had been waiting.
The difference between my writing then
and my usual handwriting was alone due
to my cold fingers"
The session wound up with scene on
account of the extraordinary conduct of
Col. Jouaust, president Of the court, who
permitted himself to make an unwarrant-
able display of partially. NJ. Bertulus
had been confronted with the last wit
ness, Capt. Junck, and Gen. Gonse had
defended the latter when Col. Picquart
rose and asked to be allowed to refute
some of Junck's remarks. Col. Jouaust
made gesture of Impotence and
shouted:
what, again?'
An outburst of boong and kissing
came from the audience at such display
of unfairness from the president. Judges
and gendarmes quickly suppressed the
noise, but Col. Jouaust understood the
well-merited rebuke administered him,
turned red and adjourned the court ten
minutes later.

brought with it a revolution in boat
building, marked a departure from the
old bluff-bowed type and made radical
changes in the ideas of our yacht build
ers-
First came the fin keel, then the new
model with full water lines and long,
easy diagonals, and then plate fin and
lead bulbs to replace the plain lead fin.
Now the contest of the designers is ex-
treme beam and extreme high power
against moderate beam and absolutely
high power.
No better index of the advances in
naval architecture could be found than
that given in the development and
changes of types of yachts which have
competed in the great international
races.
The records of these races are fea-
lures of yachting history and well
known by every thorough yachtsman.
Even within the last three years won
derful changes have been made in the
construction of yachts, and in the
Shamrock and Columbia, every inven-
ton known to the science of modern
yacht building has been brought into
play to excite the admiration of yachts
men and to establish the reputation of
the countries involved

until, suddenly, the extreme type of the
modern yacht was evolved, the last
change being so radical as to excite
comment among seamen and citizens
alike.
The centreboard is apparently CT
American invention, and was used for
small boats in the shallow waters about
New York in early colonial days.
It is singular that so little is known
about the history of yachting. The
most respectable paternity for the word
is found in the Dutch jagt, from verb
meaning to hunt or chase. So it is
applied principally to vessels designed
for speed. Size or rig make no differ
ence in definition; anything in the
shape of a vessel used exclusively for
pleasure or racing is properly styled
a yacht. OF the two classes of yachts,
one built, ballasted and spared for
racing and the other for elegance and
comfort, the latter undoubtedly came
first.
Americas first yacht was built at
Salem, Mass, in 1901, by Christopher
Turner. 1t was owned by Captain
George Crowninshield, who christened
her the Jefferson. But Americans in
those days as we'll as now were patri-
otic, and though the Jefferson was only
a twenty-five -tonner, Captain Crown
inshield converted her into a privateer
in 1912 and she made one voyage

like the Thistle. To VerybOdy's sur
prise, the Thistle proved far less for
nidable than had been anticipated.
Her very poor performance in the
first Huky race over the inside course
might be excused, in part through the
very light wind and the com binatiOn Of
bad luck and bad judgment shortly
after the start, but the second race,
outside the Hook, was perfectly fair
and conclusive, resulting in a victory
for the Volunteer by twelve minutes.
The victory of the Volunteer was SO
great that more stringent measures
were at once adopted, and American
yachtsmen were not pleased, so all con-
tests for the Americas cup ceased Tor
large yachts created by necessity for
cup defense disappeared almost as rap
idly as it had come into existence.
At the close of the yachting season of
1892 the Americas cup again became an
object of interest, and it was with great
qualification that the news was received
that another challenger was coming
over. This time it was the Earl of
Dunraven who made the attempt, and
his boat was the Valkyrie, an S5-fOOt
cutter designed by Watson. To meet
the Valkyrie a syndicate placed an
order with the HerreshOffs for an S5-
footer named the COlOnia. Another syn
dicate, headed by Commodore Morgan,

their yacht being a departure, having
two feet more beam with a centreboard
and a draft of 13 feet. Another of her
peculiarities was the Tobin bronze bot
tom. She proved to be the fastest boat
of all the defenders, and met the Val
kyrie in the races for the cup. In the
three contests sailed the Vigilant clear

age, for dugouts have been found in
the ancient Swiss villages and twenty
five feet below the surface in Irish soil
Then there was a long pause in prog
ress, in which the early builder OF
boats exercised his ingenuity in con-
triving lines that would give greater
speed, and in planning ways and
means to make the wind do his propeu-
ing for him. How far he succeeded is
to be gathered from the shapes that he
gave his canoes and their likeness to
the hulls of modern vessels.
THE CANOE.
Canoes for war and for peace, for
hunting and for fishing are handed
down with comparatively slight altera-
tions in the general plan. These were
built of heavy woods.
Afterward came canoes built of PHI
able materials, bark being first used
and then the skins of animals. Ship
building was becoming more of an art.
The builders had to puzzle out bit by
bit how to make light and rigid frame
work and cover it with something that
would not leak; or, if so, only in mod
Grafton.
The application Of the centreboard
was really the first step in the process
of evolution; but, for long time after
its adoption, the same general lines
were used in shaping the bow and stern
of the boat, and the notifications of
those lines were so slow and gradual
down to a certain point as to be almost
imperceptible to the casual observer,

THE LOG.
But 1t IS the object of this article to
treat of the evolution of the yacht. In
making posi- BILE such triumphs of ma
rine architecture as the crack racing
machines and sumptuOus steam yachts
of this day, man has passed through
centuries of discovery, invention, i'm
provement and refinement.
The log, simply pointed at the ends,
without even a place for the paddler to
sit, contained the germ of the yacht,
and it is worthy of note that on the
northwest coast of Australia this is
still the means of locOmOtion by water.
Next to the log, with its pointed ends,
comes the raft made of logs, such as
travellers to this day commonly see on
rivers and their tributaries in Southern
waters. Put a sail on such a raft and
you have a long step forward in the
art of yacht building.
A prominent feature of nineteenth
century navigation along the coast of
Peru is a raft which is almost a com
plete copy of the one used by Ulysses
a fat affair, with a raised platform for
dry carriage of goods, as often without
a centreboard as with one.
When the savage began to think
about digging out the centre of his
pointed log and of burning it out with
red-hOt stones, there was another and
very important stride in the building Of
ships, presenting for solution the prob
lem of buoyancy in hollow solids. That
was at least as faT hack - the "|"nA
The Topeka state journal., 1899-10-12

Boys and girls who went to school
half a century ago were taught to de-
fine a yacht as "a small ship or vessel
of state, employed to convey princes,
ambassadors and other great person
ages from one kingdom to another"
This definition is yet true to a certain
extent, for the yachts we hear most
about nowadays are the HohenZOllern,
belonging to Kaiser William; the
Shamrock, owned by Sir Thomas Lip
ton, and the Columbia, the property of
a syndicate of American millionaires.
But yachts are heard of in early Eng
nsh history. In 1904 Phineas Pelt de-
signed a yacht for Henry, Prince of
Wales The vessels in which Drake and
Hawkins went out to plunder on the
Spanish main were practically yachts
on account of their size and swiftness.
AS a sport yachting began in the
reign of Charles IL, surnamed the
Merry Monarch" 2" who is said to have
cultivated a strong fondness for the
water during the period of his exile
after the death of his father. He won
the first reported yacht race on the
Thames, over the course of the Royal
Thames Yacht Club for a wager of 100
guineas.
Peter the Great who studied ship
building in England, was devoted to
the sport of yachting, and one of the
proudest moments in the life of this
monarch was when he weighed anchor
for the first time on board his own YES
sci.
