William Jennings Bryan
At the Old World Centers
Where History is Being
Made.

The great Commoner, one of the
two Americans most in the universal
eye, is making a tour which will be
memorable in interest an impor
lance. He has already visited Ha-
wall, Japan. Corea and China, and is
now in the PhiT!pp mes. His timer
airy will then include India, Pales-
tine, Egypt, and the various coun-
tries of Europe After crossing the
Atlantic and spending brief time
at home, he will make special trip
to Australia and New Zealand.
Feeling that his countrymen will
desire to learn his experiences and
impressions, and daring to tell the
truth as it appears to him, Mr..
Bryan has consented TO write series
of letters covering the various pha-
SEES of his journey. These viii not
be delayed until he has bad time to
prune and polish, but viii come fresh
from the scenes Of his study They
will be timely, vital documents, and

his views may reach the people
promptly, it has been decided to per-
NIT simultaneous publication in the
leading newspapers of the United
States. .
THE PICAYUNE HAS BEEN SELECTED
THE MEDIUM FOR THIS. TERRITORY.
Mr. Bryan's reputation lnsnres

ARTIFICIAL ICE MAKING.

Few American trades have grown as

number Of factories requiring Toe In enor-
nous quantities seem to promise q further
extension Of tho business. It Is limited 10
no particular State, but has been most gen-
orally and most largely developed In tho
South.
In 1870 there were four artificial loo max
Ing plants in the United States. In 1850
there were thirty-hve. In 1890 there were
200. In 1900 there were 900. There are now

Yachting has generally been regarded
as . sport which only the wealthy can
enjoy. In a me this is true. II one

TO run a comfortable cruiser plenty Of

j. Rogers Maxwell owns the stea mer
Celt, on which he cruises and he "a oes the
schooner Queen, which was built this year
at cost Of about S75 ,OC0. His son, Harry
l.. Maxwell, owns the 10 foot sloop Yankee.
These three yachts probably represent an
outlay Of about $50 900, and it will cost
this year S2S. 900 to maintain them, without
the owners' expenses for entertaining
1t costs money to own a racing yacht, IL
one wants TO 60 in thoroughly for the sport,
but almost as much fun can be had with
small boats, and this year at nearly every
one Of the yacht clubs there is a fleet Of
email craft that ra g in size from IL feet
long and in price from $95 up.
The dory famed for It's sea worthinees Is
the craft most sought after nowadays, and
there are hundreds Of them scattered along
the coast from the Della rare Capes to Maine.
The dory 10 o Rat bottomed high sided boat,
with sharp bow and stern. Originally 1t
was used as a rowboat and was adopted
by New England fishermen because Of its
sea worthiness. 1t is purely q Yankee
invention and is built in, ifye sizes. which
size Is designated by the length Of the
floor, ~, IL. IA, Is. and 16 foot boats. Fishing
boats going of shore, such as those that go
to the Banks, carry nests Of these dories.
In this way five or six boats will occupy no
more space than one.
These boats are built at different points
along the New England coast and vary
in price from s1s up. This is the price for
the dory simply fitted as a rowboat. 1t
took the yaohtsman to find out its possibili-
ties as a sailing craft and with a few little
cha nges the dory has been altered so that
it can now carry a mast, on which is rugged
q leg O. mutton sail and jib. The boats
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1906-08-05

are fitted with a small centreboard, which
hoists in a trunk amidships, and have a,
rudder hung on the stern.
A few yachtsmen tried these small sailing
crafta few years 60 and we're much pleased
with them. The boats could soil fast for
their size and rig, were seaworthy and
easily handled. They are SO light that they
ride on the tops OF the seas and the sailor
must be a novice who will get caught and
upset.
The most popular sized sailing dory is Is
feet on the floor and sfeet long on top from
stem to stern. At each end are two small
bulkhesds in which are kept such small
things as the ailor is likely to need. There
are four thwarts or seats, and IL ry
eight or even ten persons can be carried in
one. 1t only draw VS. about three inches Of
water without the centreboard.
They are painted white and have a sheer
strake finished bright, which gives them q
yachty look.
At the Crescent Athletic Club. which has a
house at Bay Ridge, thirteen Of these were
purchased by the members early in the year,
and they nave been raced regularly since the
yachting season has opened.
Each one OF these boats has a red cres-
cent painted on It's side near the bow and on
the stern is its name. These names have
been selected by the owners with care.
Skiddoo is one. Hunkey is another. Then
there is the Scat, Sport, New Moon. Coctal
without the H., and Rooter. .
At Milton Point the American Yacht Club
has another fleet which also takes part in
weekly races, and across the Sound from
Milton Point, at Oyster Bay the Sea wanna ka
Corinthian Yacht Club has another feet.
The Shelter Island Club has another feet.
and others are to be found at the Manhasset
| Bay Club and the India Harbor Club.
Now interclub races are to be arranged
and tho first OF these will probably be be-
! tween the Crescents, American and Sea-
wanhaka Corinthian Clubs.
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1906-08-05

The sailing dory costs 375. and with a few
extras, such as reef points and mast hoops,
the cost Is increased to SIS. At that price
there is a large profit for the builders, who
turn them out by the hundred. The ma
terial for one of these dories, II is said costs
about $14.
Now that the gas engine has become
popular, power dories are to be seen every
where. Around Marblehead the row boat
has almost entirely disappeared and every
thing has an engine In 1t. A power dory
with a ~ horsepower motor costs $175 and
the price runs from that up to $500 for a &C.
foot boat with a I horsepower motor. TIE
power dories are decked over forward so as
to make them a little more seawortby, ard
the weight Of the engine aft lifts the bow
we'll out Of the water. The seats or thwarts
are arranged just as in the regular fisher
man dofy, in some OF them, but in the higher
priced ones the eeats are around the side Of
the boat and the centre lie an oren srace.
An ls-foot dory with a * horsepower
motor will make about five miles an hour.
Some Of these boats have been fitted with
a cruising hood and awning and are made
very comfortable. With a hood and an
awning q cruise can be made without hav-
ing to &C ashore and finding q place to
sleep. The hood 10 drawn over the forward
part Of tho boat and the hunks are made
upon the seats so that " persons can
sleep very comfortably on board.
The regulation dory is a lap streaked boat
rather crudely put together, but very strong.
Some designers nave taken the dory model
and improved on It. The sides are rounded
instead of being straight and more over
hang has been given to the stem and the
stern. A rudder post has been added
which has considerable rake, and on this
the rudder is hung, giving 1t a better grip
on the water. The centreboard is larger.
and with all these improvements more sail
can be carried. These boats cost from SIPS
up, according to their size.
