Mostly young ones.'
That was enough for the yachtsmen.
A council was held, and 1t was deter
nalned to make conquest Of Minerva
island Or die in the attempt. There
We're Lynn Pomeroy, TRULY Miller,
Reid Scarborough and Henry Rud-
dock. They had all been graduated
the preceding June in the same class
nc college, and Pomeroy. the wealthy
one Of the lot, had invited the rest for
u summer cruise on bis yacht, the Vul-
can Ten minutes after the council
broke up they sailed between two
points OF land up toward the harbor.
They had not gone far before boat
put off from shore manned by six
girls In white, with blue sailor collars
and blue tana-o -shanter hats with
white bands. They came alongside the
yacht, and one in the stern politely
requested the party to keep off. Pom
eroy bowed nearly to the deck and
declared that he had come to make
an inspection Of Minerva island and
write up an account Of it for the bene-
fit Of the women Of America who were
interested In II. He was informed
that this would not be permitted.
Then. with warning to proceed no
farther, the boat was pulled away.
The yacht sailed on up the channel
between two forts. Suddenly dozen
girls In each fort sprang to the guns,
and two shots were fired simultane-
ously. One cut away the yachts bow
spirit; the other put hole amidships.
This looked serious. The wreckage
forward occasioned loss Of control,
and the yncht drifted down stern fore
most. As soon as possible the anchor
was dropped. and the Vulcan remain
ed hors de combat half mile below
the forts. Not having guns aboard, an
offensive move was impracticable.
Soon after dark Henry Ruddock, a
scapegrace Of the first order and the
crack liar of his class In college, bid
ndieu to his shipmates and, plunging
into the water, struck out for the shore.
He got within few yards Of it when
he gave cry for help. A boat put out
from a landing. and, following his cries
he was rescued. Taken ashore and
revived. be was asked to explain.
"Those men on the yacht" he gasped,

will also be much affected, but
eoliennes will not be so much used.
One button silk gloves for men are
shown. They come In black, tan and
gray and are much more comfortable
for wear in hot weather than the heavy
kid.
Bow ties, stocks and belts of linen
In shades to match the fancy hose are
affected by many women. The parrot

The governor informed him that a

however, for his noble conduct and or
