VETERAN YACHTSMEN.

Yachting is another sport which has its quota
Of veterans of many years standing. The love
OF holding the wheel and issuing commands TO the
agile sailors seems to weaken. One of the
Oldest yacht shippers in these waters is Captain
BigGs. who commands the schooner Viking, owned
by ex-Commodore James d. Smith of the New
York Yacht CLUB Captain BiGgs lives at Green
port Long Island-a noted place for Old salts.
He was formerly command of the schooner
Estelle when she had the honor OF being the flag
ship of the New York Yacht Club Captain BigGs
is as tici1lish about his cld maiden at
a birthday party. But, judging from some of his
stories, he has been a skipper since Captain Noah
piloted the good ship Ark TO the top Of Mount
Ararat. -
OF the many veteran baseball players the great
est Of all is "Cy'' Young. of the Boston Amer
leans. who will begin next spring his nineteenth
season a pitcher in the major leagues. He is
dean Of the baseball world. but he is still Il
valuable player and may he expected to win
many :; game for bis team in 1908. He shows no
signs of hitting the chute although he
playing baseball when some OF his opponents ard
team mates ccing around IN pinafores.
Nearly every branch OF sport has its gray haired
veterans. and thaV speak !vell for the hardIhood
of the American stock. When fifty years IS pitted
against twenty-five years and fifty ye4rs wins the
crowd cheers itself hoarsc. fer it knows that Atty
years has really defeated two Cppoucnts-tHenty
five years and Father Time.
