VICTORIA, British Columbia, May 8.
Capt Robert Ward, typhoon tanner
Of the China Seas is building another
small boat for his third venturesome
trip across the Pacific Ocean this Sum-
mer.
He started astounding sailors in 1922,
when he sailed small Chinese junk,
the Annoy, from Hongkong to Victoria
through a series of terrific typhoons and
the fierce gales of the Aleutian Islands.
Then he guided the queer craft down
coast to the Panama Canal and up to
New York Harbor.
In 1881 he did it again. sailing the
6o-foot boat Coquet through Winter
seas this time, being storm driven down
to Honolulu before he reached Victoria.

This Spring he is building So

Its 1900 square feet of sail, and the
engine is likely to be needed. During
his first trip the Chinese sailors bat

low during typhoons, later saying
the Junk turned completely over" many
tunes during these severe storms. On
the second trip gales were so terrifying
the crew quit at Honolulu.

his vocation when the United States.

about the hazards of his cruises, leaving

blasts of their sirens
