OUR FEARLESS SAILORS.
An Incident Of the Old Days Off the
Cape of Good Hope.

SaPo OF 0ooo nope.
American vessels in those days 1888,
surpassed the sailing records Of ships
of every other nation. Once when
down nearly to the latitude of the Cape
Of Good Hope we encountered the most
severe gale Of our outward bound voy.
age. A mountainous sea was heavine
In from the south, and the wind, which
had originally come from that direc,
ton, was now blowing directly from
the west with hurricane force. High as
the Washington stood above the water
occasional crests would sweep her main
deck and she steered so hard that ]
had to keep two men continually at
the wheel and have them relieved ev-
cry half hour.
The wind. however, was fair, and
therefore every man on the ship. from
Captain l.. to the cooks boy, would
have felt disgraced had the order been
given to heave the ship to. Under dOu
BILE reefed topsails and fore course she
was logging upward Of sixteen knots
and all hands were as pleased as If
they had just been granted weeks
shore leave at New York.
Later in the day, when the wind had
moderated somewhat, we sighted q
large British bark hove to under short
canvas. She was flying distress sig.
nails, so Captain L. ordered the wheel
put up and ran down to have a look at
her. As soon as our signals could be
clearly seen he asked what she want
ed, and the bark replied with request
to stand by. Captain l.. then ran ur
flags demanding If the bark were In
jured or anything wrong on board. The
Britisher replied again. "Stand by. Do
not like look Of weather."
When the second mate read the
meaning Of this signal out of the code
book great laugh went up in our
cabin. and Captain l.. replied with
flags reading, "See nothing wrong in
this weather" and hoisted the Ameri.
can ensign above the signal in order
to give point to his remark. No doubt
the British captain said, Another of
those crazy Yankeesr' when he read
our flags, but we were in Batavia a
week before he appeared.-From 1.-THE

RUNNER DRINKS NO WATER.
Harry J. Smith Says He Takes But Three Glasses of Water a Month.

Harry J. Smith, the ten-lile cham pion of the United States drinks no water. That's a bad crack to make about an athlete at the very start of story, but it's true nevertheless. The dtstancer who has been the sensation of the fall athletic season VOWS on his word of honor that he does. not take more than three glasses of water in a month. This is most remarkable condition for a fellow who takes heavy exercise and perspires freely nearly is that a man would speedy dry out and be no good athletical1y>und such treatment. but it's not that way with MT. Smith. He looks the picture of health and gets better with every race.
 Smith eats lots of vegetables and drinks two mugs of ale every day. His diet is watched carefully by his all the champions food while he is training for a big race. Smith declares that during the last two years he has unconsciously become largely vege- taran. Now he eats meat never more than once a day, and sometimes not once in three days. He declares that he started going without drinking wa ter first through reading an article written by George Orton, the intercol- 1egiate mile champion of years gone by, in which Orton advised against drinking much water while in training for a race. Smith read Orton's advice when he first took up athletics several years ago, and started it's practice at once.
 No matter how thirsty he. is after a long race Harry Smith never drinks anything for at least two hours. Then he takes one glass of ale. but never any water. It Is interesting to note the action of K. K. McArthur. the i winner of the Marathon race at l Stockholm, in contrast to Smiths. | After finishing a long race the South 1 African always goes to pump and fills up on water In the dressing | room, directly after, McArthur guIped | down two glasses of champagne-one 1 swallow for each-and he did not 1 know what he had put down until l friend showed him the empty bottle.
