 Moored to the stratford avenue Steeplechase dock. at the Lower bridge. the ship today attracted much attention. Hundreds of curious pass ersby peered as far into the recesses of the vessel as the closed dock would permit. From the interest aroused by her arrival, the Success appears likely to attract many thousands of visitors during her brief stay.
 The Success, bought last year by Captain Smith, sailed from England on April IA, a date, by the way, mem orabIe in nautical circles, for 1t was on that day that the Titanic disaster occurred. Captain Smith of the Sue cess has, among the letters of kings, governors and other notables, a. letter from Captain Smith of the Titanic, written in humorous vein of the num- Der of times the world beating ri entine Success on her weary sail over the Atlantic
 Though destined to New York, the Success was SO long in making the trip that the crew was in bad way for rations when Boston was within striking distance, and Captain Smith headed for that port,#N Governor Foss and many prominent citizens of the Bay State welcomed the ships arrival, and during it's subsequent exhibition in Boston the ship was visited by z271, 900 people.
 From Boston the ship went to Providence, and for five weeks, before 1t was laid up for the winter, it did big business, and again this spring 1t exhibited Sthere for four weeks. New Haven and New York are the only

I other cities so far visited by the ship. The Bridgeport engagement will be short, for there are many others in prospect. It is Captain Smiths plan to visit many American ports before sailing to San Francisco, to take part 1 in the great exposition of 1915. The trip will be made through the Canal.
 The Success is 135s feet long. 29 feet beam, and 5s9 tonnage. Built strong ly of teak wood, by coolie labor, the vessel was launched in 1790. Beauti- full Woodcraft is still visible in her weather stained hulls Designed origi- naIly for trade in the Indian seas in 1902 it became a convict ship. Rows of cells were built Into hex hold. In struments of torture were installed for punishment of the recalcitrant prison CTS. It is well authenticated that B per cent. of the unfortunates that were taken aboard. the Success for Australian penal life perished before reaching their destination. With only infrequent respites for use in trading, the Success was almost continuously thenceforeth kept in the British gov ernment service to transport eonvicts to the Antipodes, thus to relieve the congestion of the British prisons at home, until, in 1852, it was supplant- ed by speedier ships, and kept as q floating prison near Melbourne.
 The Success is now so arranged that visitors gain a most comprehensive knowledge of the penal practice of a many and varied in their fendish in genuity, are in practical. working or der, and the life of the unfortunates thrust aboard the floating hell may readily be conjured up. with the aid of the least bit of imagination.

 Unique among all vessels, the con vict ship Success is rich in tradition. Could its weather worn seams open to give up the. secrets they have absorb ed during many long and heart breaking voyage, they would disclose tragedy and romance beyond the widest dreams of the fiction writers. Tales of political intrigue, of revolu- ton, murder and wrecked lives, would pour from the hold in overwhelming g stream The Success, most famous of xI1e convict ships, bore thousands of prisoners away from their native land, many destined to be tortured to death aboard her, the rest to slave in the worst forms of bondage brought about by the greed Of contractors and the
