Modern School of Mariners.

The old saying that there is no
loss without some gain is borne out
by the change which has been
wrought in the country's shipping
There has been much lament over
the decadenCe Of the famous Yankee
seamanship, but after the passing OF
the clipper and whaling fleets at
last has come TO the high seas a
new creed of Americans who are the
equals if not the superiors of the
old.
The mechanical genius of the ma
tion has sent many young men TO
the steamships of the navy and the
merchant marine. Ninety per cent
Of the sailor-mechanics Of the United
States navy are American born.
Twenty years ago the proportion of
Americans on merchant vessels was
only about 80 per cent. In 1910
the proportion was + per cent, the
natives heavily predominating over
the naturaIized. The showing for
this year viii be even better. as the
movement Of America rs tC the sea
mas been steadily increasing for scy-
eral years.
In many ways the mariners of the
new school are better than the old
shellbacks that heaved at the cap
stan bar and lay out on the ends Of
thE yardarm. The demands of steam
and electrical machinery require a
different kind of skill and more in
telligence. The constant advance of
mechanics and electrical science
make it necessary for them to keep
mentally fresh and alert. They know
more and are more progressive than
the old-time sailor and in their hab-
its they are cleaner.
Soon American ships will again be
manned by meTicans-American
of the kind the country will be as
pround of as it was Of the sailors
who carried the stars and strips on
the old Yankee clipper ships to every
part of the seven seas.

Muckraker Vignaud Thus
Brands Columbus, Dis
coverer of America.
STUDIED CASE so YEARS
Declares Explorer Learned of Ex-
istence of This Continent
Through Ignorant Sailor.

Two volumes Of a work by Henry
Vignaud, first secretary of the Amer
lean embassy. at Paris, in which the
diScoverer of America is branded al
impostOr and humbug. have just been
published.
Vignaud retired from the American
embassy two years ago and has since
devoted his entire time to the compile
ton of a study of Columbus which
has consumed in all fifty years. The
author is now eighty-one years of age
He is celebrated as a historian and
was consulted recently by the pope
when 1T was proposed to canonize Co
lumbus. At that time Vignaud show
ed that the explorer was anything bW
a sanity man and that he had at least
one iIIegitimate son.
TOOK CREDIT FROM ANOTHER.
In his study Of Columbus vignaud
undertakes to prove that the explor
er's discovery of America was not the
result OF his own genius, that the eI-
pedition was not based upon scientific
data, but that Columbus actually learn
ed Of the existence OF America from
ahead Of HMM Il word, that Amer
lea was discovered long before Co.
lumbus ever organized his expedition
and that he merely took the credit
from another man unknown to history
The story that ToscanelH wrote a
letter TO Columbus inclosing a chart
showing the route across the Atlantic
and that it was with this in hand That
Columbus started out to find the new
world is disposed of by Mr.. Vignaud.
He declares that the ToScanelu letter
was forgery perpetrated possibly by
Columbus himself. but more probably
by the explorers brother, Barthoo-
new Columbus.
a FORGED LETTER.
Fignaud says that in 1871 q copy of
the forged letter was found on blank
page of a book once the explorers
property. This IS undoubtedly in Co
lumbus writing. says Vignaud. A fac
simiIe Of the document is published in
Vignau6's work. Vignaud further un-
dertakes TO prove that the map used
by Columbus could not have come
from Toscanelli because it contained
exact information which no amount of
scientific thinking could have adduced,
but which could only have been learn
ed from actual experience.
Vignaud says that Columbus not in
acted in a manner which
renders it possible to suspect him of
deception. He says the explorer con-
cealed the lowness Of his origin; that
be boasted that ne was descended
from other admirals Of the name Of
Columbus. though it has been discov-
cred that the men in question were
not even of his nationality. one being
q Greek and the other Frenchman;
that he boasted of having served un-
der King Rene Of Aniou. while mod
ern critics prove that he did not: that
he often referred to the voyages he
made IN his youth. while facts show

Sometimes perversity OF things
Just makes us feel like taking wings
And fleeing to some other cline
Where old Dame Trouble all the time
Is not engaged upon brew
For use OF wormwood and of rue;
Where kitchen maids don't go away.
But really seem inclined to stay;
Where bill collectors don't come round
And sirloins maybe ten a pound;
Where coal does not TO heights aspire
TIL Il has fed our furnace fire;
Where pleasure gayly rings the bell
And says she's come TO stay a spell;
A lot of things that cheer us not,
Then somehow find a tender spot
And rub and chafe till we're insane
And fit to take the bug house train.
But when we come TO think II DER
We find the things that make US sore
Are often brought about by waste
OF patience plus lot OF haste
