THE MARIA TELLS VOYAGE.
Twice Blown Out to Sea and Four
Months From Tampa to Boston.

Twice Blown Out to Sea and Four
Months From Tampa to Boston.
New York, May s.-After a passage of
nearly four months from Port Tampa,
the four-masted schooner Maria o. TeeI
of Boston, arrived in New York harbor
this morning and proceeded to Carteret,
N. j.. to discharge her cargo of phos-
phate rock. The remarkable passage of
the Teel was due to encounters with ter
rife gales which drove her nearly half
across the Atlantic, and by putting into
st. Thomas. Fortunately no loss of life
was sustained during the perilous strug-
gle. and the damage to the schooner was
mostly to the upper works, gearing and
sails. On Feb. 4, the Teel was off the
mouth of the Delaware when the first
gale struck her. in which she was driven
500 miles east of Bermuda. had her for
ward house and bulwarks stove, galley
flooded, dry provisions destroyed, and
with the heavy straining of the vessel a
leak was started in the top sides. Many
of the sails were blown away. but the
schooner, by making the best use OF what
was left succeeded in reaching st. Thorn
as. D. w. l.. March 8. After being sup
piled with new sails from Philadelphia
she proceeded on her voyage on April 8,
and on April 2e, was off Barnegat, when
she was caught in another gale, blown
out to sea again, and has been ever since
getting back to the coast.

CINE waiting 10 carry away is load OF
dirt. Slowly a new light cleaned In
Tins eyes.
With quick impulse he sprang down the
embankment, and hurried TO the engine.
The fireman and engineer had left their
charge to help the men dig. Tim sprang
into the cab and touched the lever. the
engine puffed and snorted, and the long
line of dirt-laden cars jerked and rat
tied
The workmen stopped in their digging,
and the fireman and engineer shouted and
started for the engine; but Tim
did not heed them only a few minutes
were left for decisive work. Slowly the
engine backed up the grade, pulling the
long line of cars behind it. Faster and
faster the monster freight engine went,
painting and snorting like an angry crea-
ture.
Tim fed the fires and turned on full
steam, coaxing and forcing the engine to
do his bidding. Then, when a mile away
from the embankment. he reversed the
eaver, and started the line of fiat cars
down the grade. II was much easier work
to get up Roadway now, and In few
moments the wheels were tearing around
at a terrific speed. The cars squeaked
and groaned as the wheels struck a curve.
but down they rushed at headlong speed.
| Tim opened wide the throttle and ex-
ultantly sent his burden to certain de-
| struction. The engine whistled and
shrieked, and the men sprang back from
! their work to watch the rumbling train.
Every man held his breath and waited
! for the end. Instinctlvely each workman
grasped the situation, and as the engine
rushed past them they cheered loudly.
Tins one thought was che safety OF
the works, but when he saw the other
end of the train nearing the embank-
ment. he realized his own peril. But II
was too late then. The first car had
reached the end of che track, and II
plunged into the hole dug by the work.
men The others followed on.
The impact of twenty dirt-laden cars.
and heavy engine, was like small
earthquake. The very earth around
seemed to quail and tremble.
AS for Tim, he felt the shock. and knew
that he was thrown into the air by the
force Of IT, as the embankment tumbled
over on the wrecked train and the wa
tiers of the reservoir leaped over II.
II was a miracle that Tim was saved,
but a dozen brawny workmen were ready
to risk their lives for him, and before
the surging waters from the reservoir
could sweep on him they had dragged him
to safety.
! Urged on by the mighty pressure from
behind, the water rushed through the
gorge and saved the pumping station and
the works below. Bosworth was the most
surprised man of all when the reservoir
water suddenly began 10 subside.

An Indiana Man who Can Multiply
I'm 90 ways with Lightning Ra-
pidity.
From the Indianapolis News.


From the Indianapolis News
Warsaw, Ind, April 30.-Arthur n.
Griffith, commonly known as the light
ming calculator, and conceded to be the
greatest mathematician in Indiana, was
born on farm near Milford this county,
on the 18th day of July, 1880. From the
time he was able to talk until the present
his whole talk has been on the subeject
of mathematics. When but small lad
he would frequently count the number Of
potatoes his mother peeled. or the num-
Der of the ears of corn husked by his
father. One day he counted the number
OF sticks Of wood sawed by several men.
the total being 6,5s3.
When Griffith was ten years old his par
ents moved to Milford. and for the next
seven years he attended the public school
there. The teachers were unable to teach
him anything in the line of mathematics
and found 1t very difficult to interest him
in anything else, so, at the age of II, his
education ceased
The extent and diversity of Grifith's
mathematical knowledge was first known
10 the public about two years ago and
since that time he has been progressing
rapidly in all branches of his favorite
study.
Somewhat doubling what he had heard
OF Grifnth, Ernest n. Lindley, associate
professor of psychology at Indiana Uni
versity sent for him in November 1899
Grifffth remained at the university for
three months Studying algebra ana giving
exhibitions before the classes. At the end
Of three months in charge of Prof. Lindley
he was taken TO Yale University at New
Haven. Conn, where he dumbfounded ali
by his rapid calculating and the able man
ner in which he could explain how he
could work all problems propounded 10
him.
Grinith is about feet inches in night
and weighs $50 pounds. His hair Is very
dark and his eyes Jet black and exceeding
~ bright. He talks very fast and with a
slight break In his speech. which makes
IL somewhat difficult 10 understand him
Grifith now has eight different methods
Of his own for addition. ten for division
and sixty-four for multiplication. He can
take any number between $40 and 1000 and
raise 1; to the fifth power in thirty-nine
seconds without the use of either pencil
or paper, while in working with pencil
and paper 800 operations are necessary.
Griffith can mentally add three columns az
a time, divide any set Of figures. multiply
any set OF figures In from one to forty
seconds and extract square and cube root
In from three to fifteen seconds. He re-
members every problem that he works
The hardest test which he has yet been
given, 80 he claims. is TO stand and see
a freight train pass with twenty or thir-
ty cars and then tell the number OF each
car in order and 10 what road each be-
longs.

Many Females Are Now
Employed as Clerks
in Cigar Stores

An American woman with cigar
cite in her teeth rarely if ever looks
fascinating, or even endurable. She
has difficult time, in the first place to
cover up the guilt, not to say the
shame, which consciousness of her
brazenness produces within her; and.
in the second place, she has not the
grace in her way of handling the Gig
arctic that the women smokers of
over the sea exhibit. AS a matter of
fact, most of the women who smoke
cigarettes in the restaurants look and
act just as if they wanted to be ba-ad
and day-vilish enchanting and they
make a dismal hash of it.
And, speaking of women and tobac-
co, the retail tobacconists of this town
have been rapidly replacing their male
statesmen with young women during
third of the leading cigar stores on
Broadway now employ female clerks.
In all cases the young women behind
the counter are decidedly and distinct
ly pretty-indeed, not a few of them
are absolutely beautiful. And the pref
tier the girl in the cigar store the more
trade the establishment gets The
cigar dealers have been quick to find
out that men rather like to be handed
their cigars by young women with
roguish eyes and pretty teeth. The
dealers have ascertained, moreover
that they sell a better class of goods
with young women statesmen in charge
than they ever did when their counters
were presided over by male statesmen.
The dealers attribute this to the fact
that no man likes to show himself
up" by purchasing a cheap cigar, say.
from pretty girl with winsome, baf-
fling smile on her face.

Women SmOk-
erS in New York

1t is not unusual in New York,
writes a correspondent, to see women
smoking cigarettes in the best restau
rants. They are not ostentatious or
obtrusive about it, but they smoke
right along as a matter of course, with
all the nonchalance of the men accom-
panying them. Not all of them are of
the flash sort, either, although the ma
jority of them are women of the
theater. They do not often produce
their cigarette cases before midnight.
But at the petit souper, when all hands
around the after-theater tables are
more or less mellowed and indisposed
to be critical of their neighbors, out
come the cigarette receptacles and
the ornate wax match boxes, and the
women who like that sort of thing get
to putting with all the apparent zest
in life. The women who tried this
smoking business in the better class
restaurants of New York few years
ago were summarily sat down upon
by the proprietors of the establish
ments. They stormed and rave1 and
declared that women were permitted to
smoke a clay pipe if they SO elected. in
the best eating houses of London,
Paris and Vienna; but the restaurant
tours calmly invited them in that case,
to repair to Vienna or Paris or London
On the earliest available steamer. True
for a great many years the frowSy
lot OF women who move about in the
society called bohemian circles of
New York have been RECALLING them
selves with tobacco after their dinners
at the cheap tables d'hote; but it has
only been within the past two years
that the really high-grade restaurants
have tolerated such a thing.

Steamship Lines.

odd steamships of more than 5000 tons
burden in existence more than 800 are
under the British flag. OF these eight
cen are in the Leyland fleet which Mr..
Morgan is to control. Should he also
get possession of the Atlantic Trans
port company's fleet the number would
be increased by several first-class ships.
two of which-the Minnehaha and the
Minneapolis-are listed among the
half-dozen biggest ships in the world.
The gross tonnage of the seventeen
ships owned by the Atlantic Transport
company is 1914 Six ships. includ-
ing two of 13, 4O1 tons each. now build
ing, will add $1,000 tons to the total
capacity of this fleet One is surprised
to find that only three of the big trans
Atlantic misunderstanding lines ara
in the list of big fleets. 1t will be OBJ
served that the White Star lines fleet
in proportion to it's tonnage is small
in numbers. Eleven of it's twenty
four steamers have capacities of above
10000 tons. 1t owns the Oceanic, the
biggest steamship in the world, and is
building the Celtic. launched few
days ago, which will have a gross tom
mage more than Z, 200 tons greater than
that of the Oceanic. Steamship men
say that big steamship is much more
profitable than a small one to operate,
as 1t can be handled by a crew much
smaller in proportion to its size. OF
the steamship companies using Ameri-
can capital, and having their head Of
fees on this side of the Atlantic the
one having the largest fleet is line
trading in the West Indies and Mexi-
co-the Munson line. 1t employs six
ty-three steamers, with a total capac-
city of between 100000 and 100000
tons. 1t owns only eight of these, the
others being chartered vessels. It is
said to be waiting for the passage of
the ship subsidy bill, when it will re-
place many of these ships with Ameri-
can-built ships. The international
Navigation company, which owns the
American and Red Star lines, has a
tonnage of 137,796, divided among
twenty-one steamers, and is building
four more, whose aggregate tonnage
will be $4,000. The New York and
Cuba Mail Steamship company owns
seventeen vessels with a tonnage OF
