Nt TO any observing tourist who might journey around the globe the various types of sea and river craft that he would see on such a trip are as distinctive as are the costumes of many of the countries he would travel through. Few Americans there are who are not familiar with our present styles of water craft, such as the common rowboat and sailing yachts, but there are many who, if told that these boats set down on some foreign stream would excite con.siderable curiosity, would be greatly surprised. (However, if they would stop to consider that ithese boats were evolved from the primitive •crafts of our forefathers and that the various conditions in different lands would make these boats impracticable, the surprise would be somewhat tempered. First, let us consider the gondola of Italy, renowned in song and story. The gondola has probably been drawn oftener than any other boat on record. Crank and black and dismal, with

^fhe bright steel beak on the lofty prow, this ‘boat does not appeal so successfully to the nautical mind as it would seem to do to the artistic and poetical one. But on the miles of canals Ihe city of Venice this craft is peculiarly ^adaptable. The gondola was formerly the only means of getting about the city, but it is now- being displaced in part by small launches. The ordinary gondola is 30 feet long and four or five feet wide, and is flat-bottomed so that the draft is light. The bottom rises slightly above the water at the ends, while at the bow and stern slender ornamental stem and stern pieces reach to about the height of a man's breast. There is •a covered shelter for passengers in the middle •of the boat which is easily removable. In accordance with mediaeval regulation gondolas are painted black. The gondolier stands erect with iiis face toward the bow and propels the boat 'with a forward stroke, making his way through the narrow and often crowded canals with amazing dexterity. Throughout the islands of the Pacific the ca:noe is a common sight. Strictly speaking the canoe is a light boat designed to be propelled by n paddle held in the hands without any fixed support, although in some cases canoes may be seen that have an auxiliary sail to be used under favorable conditions. The canoes most commonly seen in the waters •of the Hawaiian islands are built from a single tree trunk hollowed out with an outrigger as seen in the illustration. Wonderful sailors, too, are the natives who in them often undertake long sea voyages, far out of the sight of land, and passing from one island to another. The canoes of Samoa are built of several pieces of wood of irregular shape fastened together and cemented with gum to prevent their leaking. The coasts of the mainland of Siam, Burmah and China also swarm with canoes. While the catamaran is a type of water craft that may be seen in several countries, each type •as a rule has its distinctive features. The cata-

maran is a favorite of the Chinese fisherman and the larger streams of that oriental country are well populated with these boats. They are constructed of two narrow canoes fastened together and propelled from the stern with a long, narrow oar. In its original form the catamaran consisted of three logs, the middle one being the longest, lashed together. It was used by the natives of the Coromandel coast, particularly Madras, and also in the West Indies and on the coast of South America. The Fiji islanders developed the catamaran idea in their war canoes, which consist of two parallel logs joined together with a platform on which a mast is placed. These boats are safe and also very swift. The flying proa of the Ladrone islanders is another type of the catamaran made with two hulls of unequal size. The larger hull, which carries the rigging, is perfectly flat on one side and rounded on the other. On this are placed bamboo poles projecting beyond the rounded side, and to their ends is fastened a boat-shaped log one-half or one-third the size of the larger hull. This prevents capsizing as effectually as the Fiji double canoe. Both ends of the proa are made alike, and the boat is sailed with either end first; but the out-rigger is always to windward. Against a head of wind the proa is kept away till the stern approaches the wind, when the yard

WHY THE BOY WAS BAPTIZED

At a little luncheon given on the day before his departure for Europe to Joseph Cowen, the English Zionist, the subject of apostasy came up and one man, to illustrate its prevalence, related that only a few days ago the first child in the home of one of New York’s wealthiest Jews had been baptized because “the parents hoped by that means to remove an obstacle in the way of the boy’s progress.” This recalled to another man at the table a story told at Basle by the late

Along the forest margins troops of peccaries are often met with, occasionally the jaguar, sometimes the puma, likewise that toothless curiosity the great ant bear, long in claw, long nosed and remarkably long tongued. Very plentiful too are those “little knights in scaly armor," the quaint, waddling armadilloes; long toed ja--5 canas pace about, upon the floating ■ leaves. A familiar object is the great jabl- •

ru, a stork with a preference for the desolate lagoons, where it may often be observed statuesque on one leg and wrapped in prospection. —Exchange. Convenient Arrangement. Dorothy is five years old and longs supremely to join the gay democracy trooping by every morning to the public school on the next block.

is swung around, and what was the stern becomes the bow. Proas are from in to 65 feet long and six or seven feet wide, and are said to attain a speed of 20 miles an hour. The junk is the distinctive type of Chinese marine architecture, a somewhat unprogressive science among the celestials. Even before the Christian era, John Chinaman voyaged fiom port to port In vessels of this build and rig The sails are made of matting and are reefed in much the same way as a Venetian blind is raised. The junk is built along the lines of an oriental slipper with the curved keel for the solo and the drop aft for the heel. The common river boat or sampan is on the even more familiar me lei of the inverted flat iron. The modern large junk is a good sea boat and will ride a severe typhoon in safetv. On the streams of Indin may be seen a type of rowboat which somewhat lesembles our American craft. It is. however, of clumsy construction and the oars, which are lashed to

wooden uprights fastened to the sides of the boat, overlap each other. The natives, however, j are expert in the handling of the craft. In southeastern India, near the Strait Settlements, an odd sailing craft may be found. This vessel is rigged with four sails, the larger one set slightly to the front of the center, while two others of still smaller design are set one at the prow and the other midway between the two. The smallest of the sails is rigged at the ' stern and is intended to aid in steering the craft. On the rivers of England and Ireland may be seen several types of the wherry, which is very popular in these waters. Oars are used to aid the single sail In the smaller-boats of this type but the Portsmouth wherry, used in the open sea, has a mainsail and rejoices In a topmast and a topsail. The Turkish caique is a familiar object in tho Sea of Marmora and among the islands of the Aegean. She is distinguished by her peculiar mainsail, which is a combination of a fore-and- I aft sail and a square sajlf Pages of interesting reading might be written of tho many peculiar 'Mk-s which maj be found the world over. WhilT the essential principle of boat-building must necessarily be similar, various nations and tribes have developed the idea i along different lines until to-day the various styles i and types of water craft can be numbered by the ! hundreds.

At a dinner party, so went the story, given by Mr. Stocksen Bonds, a precocious child asked the father: “Do all people turn into Jews when they grow old?” “No, my boy,” answered the father, who had renounced his faith and become a Christian before the little fellow was born: “no, my boy, why do you ask?” “Well, father, we children are all Christians, you and mother are Christians, but grandfather, who just came from Russia, he’s au awful Jew ”

BREWERIES HIT BY SUITS. Attorney General Bingham Files Accusations in Indianapolis. Indianapolis.—Five separate suits were filed in the Marion county superior court by James Bingham, attorney general, against the Indianapolis Brewing company, the Terre Haute Brewing company, the Capital City Brewing company, the Home Brewing company and the American Brewing company. The attorney general alleges that these companies are wantonly and flagrantly violating the laws i of the state and are continually and ! persistently abusing and exceeding I their corporate powers. He asks for a I judgment dissolving the defendant corporations, forfeiting their corporate rights and ousting them from the ex • ercise thereof; also for a temporary injunction against each and the appointment of a temporary receiver, later for permanent injunctions and perma nent receivers and finally that an ac- • counting of the property of the companies be had and the assets distribu- , te 1 among the creditors.
