he was very vigilant and succeeded in
capturing much of the contraband stimu-
lants, yet he failed to suppress or even
appreciably check the traffic in the camp.
Mr.. Watterson died very mysteFiously
one night and his body was found near
the roadside. a shore distance from the
camp next morning. A careful examina-
ton failed to disclose any marks of evio-
lence or any clew whatever as to the
cause Of his death. Some suggested that
he froze to death, but that seemed to me
a very improbable theory.
It was thought by some that the high
price of whisky consequent upon the de-
probation of Confederate money would
assist in suppressing the traffic, but the
men were ever ready with expedience for
overcoming all such insignificant diff
culties
heard a story of a man who got two
jugs exactly alike and filled one with
water, the other being empty. He corked
them securely and after putting them into

whisky to sell After setting down his
sack he took out the empty jug and
asked the man to I'LL 1t with whisky. The
dealer filed It and passed It back to the
soldier, who, after corking II securely, re-
placed II In the sack beside the jug of
water and took out his purse as If to set
tie, at the same time asking the price.
Twenty dollars gallon" answered
the dealer. ~
That's too much" rejoined the soldier,
that's extortion; it's an outrage"
sWhereupon a squabble ensued which
soon ripened into quarrel, and, this In
turn resulted in the positive refusal on
the part of the soldier to pay any such
price. The dealer then demanded his
whisky back and the soldier reached
down. took out the jug of water and gave
II 10 him, and the dealer hastily and in a
very excited manned emptied the water
into his whisky barrel The soldier then
replaced the Jug in his sack beside the
whisky and taking up his load babe the

Again in 1892, Captain Andrews sailed

Captain Andrews Is as safe in one of his
tiny craft as is the first cabin passenger
on a Cunarder
This brave seaman's first venture of the
kino was made in 1878, when he, with his
brother Walter as a companion, crossed
the Atlantic in the wonderful little boat
Nautilus and made the trip In As days.
They started from Boston and were bound
to the Paris Exposition Universelle.'
The cut made of this boat is from pic
ture taken of the Nautilus upon her arri-
val at Mullyan cove, Lands End, Eng
land, which was the first point Of land
reached by them.
The second trip undertaken by this fear
less individual was much more hazardous
than the first, for his trim craft, Dark
Secret, was but II feet on the keel, being
8 feet less than the Nautilus, and he was
alone. The start was made from Point of
Pines, Revere beach, Massachusetts,, June
18, 1883. The Dark Secret was equipped
with just enough prepared food and drink
to. last one man two months. Following
great hardships the captain reached Eu-
rope after memorable passage
of 81 days. He was feted in England
and on the continent for the success he
had gained in so safely making the trip.
for no one ever expected to again see him
alive after he babe adieu to his Ameri-
can friends and launched his boat prepar-
atory to making the long journey.
1t was after this second and most APP
plauded triumph that the writer first met
this intrepid sailmaster. He was max

country and the fame which he had so
meritoFiously and richly earned having
preceded him he was the recipient of
