this was rejected on the ground that
it sounded TOO much like lynching. II

THE SPECTER SWIMMER.

A Legend Of the Sea That Still Appeals
to Sailors.
The sailor as class still holds fast
to the superstitions that have been his
especial heritage throughout all ages
To him the sea is still peopled with
phantoms. Men there are still who sail
the sea believing in the power of the
Swimmer, men who believe in the Wal
rus of unholy fame and in the exist
ence of the specter bark Lucy to be
seen at any time lodging in and out of
the creeks and bays of the South Caro-
lima coast This is the tale of the Swim
mer:
Near Cape Finisterre there lived a
fisher maiden in days when the world
asked fewer questions than now, and
with her lived her fisher sweetheart
On their wedding night, runs the yarn,
smugglers came down on their village,
q thieving, drunken band. When they
left, having done all the damage they
could, the fisher maiden's sweetheart
had disappeared, whether with them
or through them was never known.
Instead Of pining uselessly, as would
most women, she dressed herself in
dead or alive.
For years she wandered over the
earth and ocean, and, though her dis
guise was penetrated several times
and she passed through a host of trou-
bles which vary with each telling, she
succeeded in keeping up her hunt FL
nally after escaping from an English
prison the vessel she was on was lost
at sea, and the simple Breton fisher
men enshrined her in a legend which
has her forever swimming the seas
still in search of the man she loved
and hailing each craft she nears. A
sailor, be be Yankee or Portuguese,
matter of fact in all things else or
grossly superstitious, believes firmly
that If you hear the hail of the Swim
mer on a dark night at sea and an
swer it not woe follows swiftly.-New

Was this affair TO be the grand affair?
The older sister hoped so. for she liked
the young man cordially-thought he
