(The Only Girl Sailor on the Great Inland
Lakes.)
mast Is years of age, she is known as the
Grace Darling Of the lakes-not that
she has emulated the English heroine's
feat. but because she has the courage to
handle the wheel in all kinds of weather.
The Marengo is an Independent freight
carrier of GAO tons burden, and is owned
by the McGowans, father, wife. son and
daughter sharing equally. She is
stout craft, 1S9 feet long, 81 feet beam
and 1871 feet deep.
II was not the intention Of Miss Nc
Gowan's parents to make sailor of her.
Instead they desired that she remain
ashore, attend q convent and be free
from the dangers of a life at sea. This
desire gave every indication OF being full
filled when the young girl spent her first
summer on board the vessel. That was
four years ago, and that time she was
badly frightened at the heavy pitchings
of the schooner when out on the lake
during storm. But Unborn love for the
water would not be quenched, and, over
coming fear, she developed passion for
the lakes that would not be denied.
In two years she mastered the intrica-
cies of boat knowledge, and two years
ago found her installed as wheelman on
the Marengo. She knows the compass
and just now is mastering the problem
of figuring out course from the charts.
Miss MCGOWAN can take the wheel of
the Marengo and steer from Toledo har-
Dor to the upper lakes. To the landlub-
Der who knows little about the impor-
lance OF exact knowledge Of such a
course, this announcement means moth
ing, but to the mariner who knows the
dangers of Georgian bay and the treach-
erous rocks it means volumes.
The girl sailor has spent many a
night at the wheel when the waves
rushed over the decks and almost swept
her from her post, but she is as unas-
Stunning about her feats in this line as
if handling wheel under such circum-
stances was of no Importance.
In addition, she can haul up the sail
with the best sailor on board, and this
knowledge saved the vessel from crash
ing into the steamer James Fisk, at
st. Clair, not long ago, when that YES
sci, with the Marengo in tow, went
aground. Miss MCGOWAN ran up the
sails, and the schooner was swung away
from the stranded steamer in the nick
Of time.

LILLIAN MCGOWAN, ONLY GIRL
SAILOR ON LAKES.
Pretty Little Maiden Holds Proud
Position Of Wheelman Of the

pert Navigator.
Toledo lQl Special.

Toledo CO., Special.
To the eastward, OF the entrance of
Maumee bay, on June three-masted
schooner was racing In the teeth Of
gale.
Lake Erie was experiencing one of it's
worst early summer gales and the
schooner was scurrying for haven of
safety. Swiftly she bore toward the
harbor entrance, rounded behind the
sheltering banks and dropped sail. AS
tug scurried out to take the line, dimin-
utive figure at the wheel, clad in rubber
coat and rubber cap, pulled tightly down
over the head, raised the visor and
cheerily called: well, dad, we made
her without turning hair!"
AYE, aye, Lillian" shouted the ford
captain from the forward deck.
This .rubber-coated figure. who han
died the wheel of the big schooner like
an expert and drove her through the
teeth Of the squall, was a young girl. A
moment later she relinquished the wheel
to "dad," and disappeared into the cabin,
where storm coat and hat were thrown
of, disclosing slender form and an
oval, rudy face. It was she whom the
captain, Thomas MCGOWAN, introduced
as his daughter Lillian, "wheelman" Of
the schooner Marengo, of Detroit, bound
from Buffalo to Toledo with the first
cargo of hard coal to enter the port.
Surprise was expressed by an onlook-
er that so hazardous task as steering
a schooner at such time should be in
trusted to the hands Of girl. A roar
echoed through the cabin as the captain,
in his bluff way, exclaimed:
'Lor', boy, she's one of the best sailors
on the lakes. She can steer course by
the compass, and, so far as I know. Lii
liam is the only girl sailor on the great
lakes"
Investigation proved this to be fact.
It is unique distinction that Miss Lii
lian MCGOWAN holds-to be the only girl
sailor on the lakes. Although but a trifle

IT is not at all improbable that Mr. Cleveland will be the next democratic nominee for president. A man who uses up good deal of column in declining an office raises a doubt about his sincerity, and he may be induced to accept the honor after all. Mr. Cleve- land is a good man, but he hap pened to be president when the country was passing through the worst panic for the past fifty years. That is against him.

A day or two before the attack the child becomes hoarse, This is soon followed by 8 pecul- jar rough, cough. Give Chamber lain's Cough Remedy freely as soongas the child becomes hoarse. or even after the rongh cough appears, and it will dispel all symptoms of croup. In this way all danger and anxiety may be avoided. This remedy is used by thousands of mothers and has never been known to fail.
