SOME SEA sUPERsTITIoNs.

Ill Luck In a Changed Name and
In n Name that ends in A.
Those who go down to the sea in
ships are members of a universal
brotherhood whose joys and fears
are the same from China to Peru.
From time immemorial the ad-
Yenturer upon the ocean has ever
been possessed of a temperament in
comprehensive to landmen, by re-
son of his belief in signs and hap
penings that are to him omens
either of good or evil. Although
maDy old superstitions died with
our increased knowledge of the
globe and although the introduc-
tton of steam and mystery of the
deep, yet many curious beliefs still
prevail. His environment tends to-
ward belief in signs and potents,
and however clear-headed a man he
may be he is seldom If ever free
from this dread of some invisible
menace.
Among the ancient mariners the
widest superstitions were rife, but
their belief in the existence of en-
chanted spots such as the siren Is
lands OF Calypso or of those iSlets
which Sinbad likened to the Gar
dens of Paradise, were mere pic
turesque and prosaic Innings which
occupy the mind of the modern sea-
man.
All are aware of the i'll luck
which is said to belong to the ship
whose name has been changed, but
1t may not be so generally known
that a belief prevails among sea-
faring >men that the vessel whose
name ends in A rests under an
evil spell. Indeed, it would almost
seem that the latter superstition is
not wholly unfounded, If we consid-
er but a few of the disasters at
sea in our own times wherein the
Ill fated ships have borne names
which ended with the first letter of
the alphabet.
For instance, H. NJ. S. Vistoria,
sunk in the Mediterranean, is still
fresh in the memory of English
men. Other we'll known instances
are the Stella, lost of the Channel
Islands; the Arequipa, ashore on
the west coast of America: the Gu
ba, destroyer, which broke her
back in the North Sea on her maid
en- voyage, and the Sardinia, burn
ed in the harbor of Malta.
The fate of the last named yes-
sci in the light of the two super
stitions already mentioned, may be
talrly said to have been preordain-
ed, for in addition TO her name
ending with the letterA, she had
during her career borne at least
one other, viz: Gulf of Corcovoda.
nevertheless to say, many ships
have been wrecked whose names did
not bear the unlucky final letter,
and there are hundreds afloat which
DO possess it, and in which it is
safer to travel than on the rail
way.
A very common superstition
among sailors of to-day is that
which attaches an evil influence to
a particular member of a crew, and
sometimes to a passenger. Equal
ly common is the belief which at
taches to a particular man the
contrary reputation of possessing a
personality or quality tending to
good luck, and according to which
the vessel he sails in Is blessed by
I his presence, inasmuch as whatever

Philadelphia, Pa, Aug. 5.-Lin-
coin Beachy, the hero of many
thrilling performances in the air,
won the first long distance, cross
country aeroplane race ever held in
the United States, this afternoon
when he flew from New York to
Philadelphia, defeating Hugh Rob-
inson and Eugene Ely. His time
from 33rd street and Broadway,
New York, to 9th and Market
streets, Philadelphia, about 95
miles, was 2.22 2-5 seconds. Ely
did not finish. He came down near
Princetown Junction, n. j., with
motor trouble and did not go up
again. All three used Curticc bi-
planes
The race, which was for a prize
of $4,000 was witnessed by hun
dreds of thousands Of people in
New York along the route and in
this city. 1t is estimated that 5O,-
900 persons were massed an Bel
mont plateau, in Fairmont Park,
where the aviator descended.
Feachy was given an enthusiastic
reception at Philadelphia. Charles
X. Hamilton was to have been in
the race, but he did not like the
prospects of taking up a new ma
chine, in a tricky wind and XEly
consented to take his place.
Crossing the Hudson river the
aviators, following the Pennsylva-
mia roilroad tracks, started on
their cross-country flight. Beachy's
engine worked without a slip and
he came down for a ten-minute
stop near the Trenton Fair ground,
for gasoline and OIL From Tren-
ton it was a straightway sail of
30 miles down the river to Phila-
delphia.
great crowd was gathered on
Market street, a tthe department
store, where tthe race officially
ended, and Beachy was given a
great ovation as he passed. He
circled the great tower of the City
Hall, which rises more than 500
feet in the air, then turned to-
ward Paramount Park In a few
minutes he had made an easy
landing. Robinson arrived some
time later.
