BRIDAL TOUR ACROSS THE OCEAN
INA FOURTEEN-FOOT
BOAT.
CAPT. ANDREWS QUEER NOTION
COUPLE SAIL FROM ATLANTIC
CITY, N. j., IN THE OZARK
SECRET.'
BIG CROWDS BID THEM ADlfu
MANY PEOPLE sKEpTICAL ABOUT
THE CAPTAIN MAKING THE
VIII TRIP. ~,

Atlantic City. N. j., Oct. IA solid
wall of 5000 people met yesterday after
noon on the west side of Young's ocean
pier to bid a bon voyage to Capt. William
Andrews n his bride of a few weeks as
they started on their long and eventful
journey across the Atlantic ocean in a
f~ourteen-foot boat, sloop rugged, called
the Dark Secret.
The sailing time was fixed at 4 O'Clock,
but 1t was half an hour later when Mrs.
Andrews, wearing a blue suit and a blue
yachting cap, hove in sight. She was
sitting in the stern Of a yawl rowed by
Capt. John Young, the owner Of the pier.
The Dark Secret, in which she is trusting
her fate, lay at anchor fifty fset west
ward Of the pier. If there was any ex-
pectation Of excitement or enthusiasm,
Capt. Andrews and his wife
Must Have Been disappointed.
Not a sound was heard, and handler-
| chiefs only were waved Mrs. Andrews
jumped nimbly into the Dark Secret,
which rolled in the. w~ateEsffty feet from
the. pier as she got aboard. Alongside OF
the .yawls the Dark Secret looked small.
She sat deep in the water weighed by
stores, n the thought Of the entire
kdLllCll LIE was lAl0Sr ! y was q
undertaking, and that the Dark Secret
would never survive at sea in a storm.
The ocean was calm as q lake, with a
stiff breeze from the northeast. The cap
tain and his wife shook hands with the
occupants in the yawl boats and wave
an adieu to the curious and silent sight
seers. Anchor was then raised, and with
out the sound Of a cheer the Dark Secret
first headed southwark, and then, wnen
clear of the outer pier, turned and start
ed up the coast toward Brigatine beach,
almost due east. This is the course that
is to be held until they reach
The Azores Islands.
Most Of The people believed hat Capt.
Andrews means to hug the shore and put
into the first safe harbor he reaches.
Persons who know the man say he will
make the venture at, the risk Of his life,
for in other small boats-this being the
eighth trip in them-he has been reported
in midocean. Prior to sailing Capt. An
drews climbed the mast and hung. to one
side to test her. She sank down on one
side, but showed no signs of being dan
gerous. Mrs. Andrews mother, who OBJ
jected to her sailing, was in a small cot
tage on the pier, weeping as her daughter
sailed. She bade her daughter an afec-
tionate goodbye just before she boarded
the Dark Secret. Capt. Andrews counts
on averaging ten miles an hour and
reaching the Azores islands in eight days.
He goes from there to Palos, Spain.

will, the first picket rushed was ten
men of the Derbyshire regiment, of
whom six were killed and four woun-
ded. Soon afterward the British camp
vas surrounded on three Sides. The
Derbyshires took advantage of the one
opening and turned the flank of the
Beers. Scouts report that the Beers
were severely punished when they
were repulsed and their losses were
heavier than at first supposed. 1t is
also said that Gen. Delarey's men are
disguised and disheartened at their
failure in this attack, as they expected
to obtain full supplies by taking the
camp. Instead of that. many Beers
were killed and wounded and they got
nothing in the way of supplies.
