REAL HISTORY
OF FLEETWING


Although the famous old schooner
yacht F1eetwing, which raced across
the Atlantis in 1855 for a stake OF
$4,000, is still doing service a1oat,
her commander, Captain James
| Crandall, has been dead since Octo-
Der, 1899. Captain Crandall was
the father of Mrs. Thomas Waters,
OF 142 Rector street. 1t will be re-
membered that the EVENING NEWS
gave an account OF the old ship with
| pictures recently.
While fishing from a small sloop
| at the mouth of the harbor at New
| London, Conn, on October 20, 1899,
| Captain Crandall was thrown into
| the river and drowned, the three
| masted schooner Wandrian colifding
| with the smaller craft. Captain
| Crandall had spent the greater part
of his life on the water but could
not swim. He had been in command
| of some Of the fastest yachts ever
built, among them the Fleetwing.
He was master of this craft for many
years and was on that crack schoon-
err when she raced the Henrietta n
Vesta in 1866 from Sandy Hook to
Queenstown, losing by a little over
an hour to the Henrietta.

HEAVY VOTING
THIS WEEK
Contest Becoming Eratic-Thousands
Anxious to Win-Workers Getting
Up to Top Speed for the Grand
Rush Of Balloting the Last Week.

The voting this week has been
heavy. Everybody seems to be on the
job, particularly at the Lyric Theatre,
where ten cents now adds ten votes to
the week Is totals. Each night a NOV
ing picture exhibition is given, you can
see a perfect sea of faces and this
means oceans of votes. A boy stands
as you enter and passes them out and
maybe you think 1t don't keep him
hustling.
The time is now here when you viii
see the big contest become cratic.
Enormous votes will pile in for n or
another, but the Y. M. FL. Association
carries the banner this week. Several
strongho1ds for this institution report
ed last week, some being in arrears two
or three weeks. 1t looks as though it
were q mutual understanding between
them to produce a surprise which, of
course, was not the case. This was the
strongest week any contestant has had
so far, but we wonder what this week
will produce. The workers for st.
Mary's church are deserving of special
mention this week, as they came within
striking distance Of the leaders vote
last week and they are likely to move
up q peg or two closer Monday. From
current rumors this church will be right
on the job at the finish. / would like
to see next week every merchant who
polls as large q vote for st. Mary's
church send in a full report, and every
member should fall in line with this
idea and see how often and how furi-
GUS they can make the voting from now
to March % count.
It il remarkable how the Dana Re-
lief Society have commanded votes
from the start and it bespeaks much
credit to those who. have been loyal to
this noble order. With their forces bet
ter organized there is 40 doubt that
this organization vii be a greater
power in the contest. There is no in
tent to east aspersions upon their
strength In the contest now, for moth
ing surprises the contest man, and they
are a great bunch of hustlers.
There is one thing sure, Ii you ex-
pecE to be eligible to be represented on
that committee at the close, you, ev-
cry ono of you, will have TO do soIae
all hustling from now on. Again, its a
simple problem. Trade with contest
merchants and ask for the votes. They
are yours, as free as water, and q con
Test grocer and market is the first and
step. There go down the
line, making every dime, dollar OF ten
count.
In conjunction with the above every
should be on record for votes out
OF the Evening News by subscribing
to the best home news medium. 1t
should be a great satisfaction to know
that these votes are to go into the
great figures tabulated every
Monday for your favorite. They
have begun to come in from all
directions, and in every instance
it Is a satisfaction to know that q pa
per with many times the price paid,
will carry daily TO these. houses the
wholesome irapences that 1t is the pur-
pose and al. Of the Evening News
staff to send forth.
