were with him as one man; no priva-
teer ever carried more valiant crew.
-Four days out from Liverpool as the
shenandoah was bowling along off the
southwest coast of Ireland, the Spanish
gunboat steamed down on it. The
commander OF the enemy fired a solid
shot across the bows of the American.
Captain Murphy let fly in kind and
held true to his course. He had on
then every yard of canvas he could
carry and was tearing through the
water at is knots an hour
Such speed was too much for the
gunboat. Yet for four hours her com
mander kept up the chase. Then, see
ing that he could never catch the
flying Yankee, he fired parting shot
and soon disappeared below the ho-
rizon. The Shenandoah kept straight
on and made Baltimore without mis-
hap.
What the Sewalls said to Captain
Murphy for his daring has never been
revealed, but that they approx ed of
his course is evident from the fact
that he remained in the ship until the
very day it was turned over to the
Scullys for conversion into coal
barge.
1t Is said that no American vessel
carried as much sail as did the Shen-
andoah. All told, it has IS square sails
sails, headsails, spanker and spanker
topsails. These gave it a spread of
canvas that approximated nearly $4,000
yards. It's nearest competitor as a sail
carrier was its sister ship, the Roanoke.
The SewaIls always maintained that
the Shenandoah was not built for
speed. The windjammer, however, had
a peculiar trait of slipping away from
any ship that tried to beat it on q
long voyage. I'm race from San Fran
cisco to Havre 1T showed the way to
five foreign vessels making the pas
sage in exactly 100 days. Once it gave
the British ship California, so the
marines are fond of telling. 10 days
start on a trip to England and then
outsailed 1T by several days.
The shenandoah was built at a cost
of $175000. The Scullys bought it for
$4,000 and fitted lit out as a coal car
rier at a comparatively small outlay
It's timbers are still sound and If it
maintaines it's reputation as lucky
ship ii should see many years of
service in its present humble capacity
But it does seem the unkindest cut
of all, as one sailor put it the other
day, that such noble craft should
have TO tow behind a tug that it
could walk away from in its palmy
days"

The Shenandoah as she appeared in her paImy days

The big barge Shenandoah, which ar
rived in Providence recently on it's
maiden trip as a coal carrier, is the
last Of remarkable. quartet of wind
TANNERS built by the Sewalls of Bath,
Me, less than quarter OF century
ago. In the heyday of it's glory it was
considered the finest type of sailing
ship ever turned out in an American
shipyard and the fastest vessel that
ever rounded Cape Horn.
Those who go down to the sea in
ships will always remember the Shen-
andoah. It's graceful lines, its size, it's
marvellous stretch of canvas made it
admired in every port in which it
dropped anchor. The United States
government thought it so representa-
tive of the skill of American ship
builders that it, had its picture taken
for use on the registers of all vessels
flying the American flag and on the
licenses Of masters OF sailing Ships
The picture was snapped while the
Shenandoah was off Point Iona at the
entrance to the harbor of San Diego.
1t is familiar to every sailor who pos
sesses a coveted masters license and to
every owner Or agent whose craft is
registered under the stars and stripes.
The speed of the Shenandoah was for
ySsi . Liz talh VI Tic SIlIpplHB WOIlu.
It was best demonstrated at the time
of the Spanish american war when the
towering windjammer ran away from
Spanish gunboat sent out especially to
capture it. The daring of her skipper,
Captain Jim Murphy, on that historic
occasion showed the stuff of which
American sailors are made. 1t also
won him a name worthy to stand
alongside those of the heroes of the
days when American ships swept the
seas.
When the war broke out the Shenan-
doah was in Liverpool. The Sewalls,
fearful for her safety cabled to Cap
tain Murphy to take out war risks on
the vessel before he got under way
for his voyage to Baltimore. They had
heard rumors of the intention OF the
Spaniards to watch for the ship, which
would have made valuable prize and
they were not willing TO take any
chances.
But Captain Murphy felt that in
surance at war rates was altogether too
expensive. After consulting his mate
who was as stanch as himself, he de-
cided that guns were cheaper So he
bought two four inch rifles, PLACED one
forward and one aft. and declared that
he was ready for any old gunboat that
might be lowering off shore. His men
