THE CLIPPER SHIPS

1t is Just a century since American ship
designers began the development of the
famous clipper ships, the last of which was
the Benjamin F. Packard, a 2,000-ton YES
sci, placed out of commission only a few
years ago.
The achievements of the long line of
American clipper ships which carried the
Stars and Stripes and bore their cargOes
over the seven seas are notable in the his
tory of navigation. These sturdy and
speedy vessels represented the last effort
of the sailing ship to compete with the
steamer on long voyages with heavy cargo.
Though finally defeated, they delayed the
complete victory of steam propulsion for
many years.
First of the clipper type was the Rain
bow, completed in 1843 at Baltimore, home
of a famous fleet of these fast vessels, which
often beat the steamers of their day ir trans
Atlantic voyages The quickest crossing OF
the Atlantic under sail is said to have been
that of the Dreadnought, from New York to
Ireland in IL days, in June, 1859.
Another famous record was that of the
Lightning, built in Boston. which once sail
ed $3.50 English miles in seven days. The
fastest single days record ever made by a
sailing ship on any ocean was 437 miles IN
"a hours by the Sovereign of the Seas, dur
ing a voyage between New York and San
Francisco.
From the Rainbow to the Benjamin F.
Packard these speedy clippers served
their owners and their country well. They
bore eloquent testimony to the genius of
American shipbuilders and the seamanship
of American sailors Their glory is part
of our national heritage.

DUVAL FIRE is LESSON

Destruction of the Duval hotel Sun
day in a conflagration which endangered
scores of lives, inflicted loss of some $10,-
coo on Frank Johnson and wiped out the
money and personal property of the hotel
tenants ought to be a strong enough argu-
ment to get action in tearing down some OF
the city's ancient fire traps.
Succeeding fire chiefs for years have
described the old Sweeney building, where
the blaze started, as distinct menace.
Probably in a misguided effort to remove
an eyesore, one or several persons had
started fires in the building on a number
of previous occasions.
Still, in spite of spasmodic efforts to
have the building removed, it remained
where it was until Sunday morning, when
its dried timbers went up in flames and took
with them the hotel next door
Considering the mpossbility of bring
ing the Sweeney fire under control under
almost ideal circumstances-there was lit
tie wind and the building was only a half
block from the fire department and block
from fire fighting equipment at the naval
staton-it is obvious that under other con-
ditions some of the cty's remaining fire
traps easily could start fire that would be
far more serious.
In addition to the fire menace, many
Of he Cd buildings in Key West are hazards
to health and at least one of them, the old
Citizen building, is in danger of caving in
on the children who frequently play
there.
Key West has a rather involved legal
procedure for getting rid of such menaces.
If the light of the Sunday fire, some action
ought to be taken to invoke that procedure
and destroy the fire traps.
City officials point out that previous
attempt at razing a building found Key
West coming out second best when William
L. Bates was granted circuit court judg
ment requiring the city to restore his
garage, which had been torn down. Never
theless some of the old buildings must go,
ard if the law is too involved it is up to the
council to work out system which will
work.
