that she has broken all records for
sailing craft around the Horn.
This sea captain lived at San
Diago until year or two ago, having
retired on modest income. His
name is Thayer. One day he read in
the papers of an auction sale of the
hulk of ship in the South Seas. He
went to San Francisco, where he
found that the ship had been valued
at s25O,OO0 and had been grounded
in a storm, deserted by the crew and
supposedly pounded into shapeless
mass upon the rocks. But he thought
he would take a chance, and 50 he
bid her in for s1,100, getting law
yer in Oakland TO take half interest.
Getting together a wrecking crew,
he travelled 1000 miles to the Island
of Manga Riva, where, through heroic
efforts and after many months, he got
the ship to the level and towed her
back across the smooth summer seas
to San Francisco. There the vessel
was rebuilt into three-masted bark.
Captain Thayer came on to Washing
ton and got the government to regis
ter the British ship Pyrenees, for that
was it's original name, as the bark
Manga Riva. Then, after the refit-
ting has been completed, he sent her
to Swansea, Wales. The bark made
the fastest time ever attained by any
sailing vessel between the Pacific and
Atlantic oceans. Captain Thayer is
now enjoying the income from his
daring and his name is being paraded
up and down the Pacific coast among
the marine folk as the modern Gill
lat. Washington Post.

of Brewers pond, in the town of Or

When afloat and doing duty as q

pond TO the point where it could be

and current.
A windmill, set high amidship, OPP
Grated screw propeller at the stern
and was able tO drive the scow into
the teeth Of gale. A pendulum-like
arrangement came near to realizing
the dream of perpetual motion. The
hull of the scow consisted of iron, sup
ported from two stout uprights, one
at each side amidships, being lifted
far enough from the outer wooden
shell 10 permit it to vibrate every
time the craft rose or fell on the
waves.
AS the undulatory motion of the
scow was communicated TO the huge

operated Independently of the wind
Thus, though not breath of wind wa
stirring Brewer could furl the sails
of his windmill, and with no impul-
sive energy save what he obtained
from the rise and fall of the waves
could navigate his craft across the
pond at rate of three or four miles
an hour.

with many a jest this band of women

they adjourned to the Town Hall,
where they were joined by their hus-
bands and brothers, and the village
fathers. A public banquet celebrated
the occasion.
While this was not the first char

at that time the most enthusiastic, and

New Haven, Connecticut, can rightly
claim the first effort in Village I'M

More than a hundred years ago
James Hillhouse, of New Haven, or
ganized what he called the Public
Green Association" He raised fifteen
hundred dollars for grading the green
and for planting elms. One man is
said to have donated five gallons OF
rum for this purpose. James Hill
house was also United States Senator
for twenty years. Almost every one
had forgotten what ne did at Washing
ton, but no one is ever likely to forget
his services in making the city OF
New Haven classic by the beauty OF
Natures Gothic architecture. The
whole country owes him a debt of
gratitude that can only be paid by
planting elms in his memory.-H. d.

A Soldiers Life.

Z" oOhShShS AtISs
A soldiers life is a weary life.
A weary life you know,
For just as he lies down to rest
He hears the bugle blow.
He stands inspection at guard mount
And then his work begins
or two hours on and four hours off
Until nine next day it ends.
He bucks for orderly all he can
And then is filled with grief,
When with q rusty gun he stands
A chance of third relief.
The Sargent puts him on his post
And then your away
And he turns out the guard for C. A.
And officer of the day.
And after six o'clock at night
AS the sunset gun does sound
He goes at once to his patrol
On which he makes four rounds.
Every time he makes round
And finds nothing in his way
He reports to the Corporal of tn,
guard
That everything is o. X.
And next day he is an old guard
AT eight o'clock his work begins
or saving wood or polishing up,
Until the boat comes in.
When the sunset gun is fired
And retreat is Ger,
The officer of the day
Comes to the guardhouse door,
The Sargent meets him and salutes
And then doth insure,
That the guard is present
And the prisoners are secured.
At twelve o'clock the bugle blows
And then we go to dine,
Supper comes at five o'clock
And bedtime comes at nine.
At five a. m, we get up,
Sometimes against our will,
But we know it is just two hours
Until Artillery drill.
And then at seven o'clock
We hear assembly blow,
We fall in, in double ranks
