The bark Sunbeam, too, whose catch of the voyage immediately preâ€" ceding is said to have been worth $65,000, was a prime .fuvorite of fortune. this lucky box of a, ship reaching New Bedford June 26 from a. 22 months’ trip with a grand total of 2,900 barrels sperm. almost the banner catch, time and quantity con- sidered, of the entire Whaling record. The bark Canton, whose 16 months’ voyage, ending in Septem- ber, 1902, yielded 200 barrels of sperm. :1 record equaling the best of the palmy day voyages. Take the case of the schooner Elea- nor B. Conwell. That craft left Fay- al. where she had landed her previous catch. early in October, 1903, to cruise south. The hurricane that SWept the Azores October 9 caught her in its track and stripped her of all boats, etc., driving her to Cape de Verde to report. Obliged to pro- ceed to St. Kitts, West Indies, to procure new boats and repair, she did not resume whaling until March, when she was rushed north to the Hatteras ground. She found whales there, and in 27 days after sighting her first spout she was homeward bound, 3 full ship, reaching New Bedford June 23, with 400 barrels of sperm, and the decks still bearing traces of the last cut. the last whale having been taken only four days prior to arrival. Some startlingly lucrative voyages have marked the progress of the busâ€" iness of late. The Morning Star, Canton, Sunbeam and others of the older ships have excelled their best previous reCOrds in point of pheno- menally rich cargoes brought home to swell the bank accounts of owners and officers. Even the smallest of the schooner class have "struck luck' and the renewed spectacle of lone Whalers "boiling" here and there over all the track of sea from the Azores south of. Walfisch Bay, west coast of Africa, reminds us of the palmy days of the American whale fishery, when “spouts” were legion in all the Western ocean. "Thar sh’ bio-oâ€"ows!” The ancient call, trumpeted by leatheru lungs from cloud-aspiring "crows’ nests." rings anew o’er all the timeâ€"honored "whale-grounds," says a Province- town (Mass) dispatch to the New York Herald. As of yore, the New England “copper bottoms" come snoring homeward, bearing {at freight of "sperm" and ivory from far Southern seas. Again is profit accruing from a, pursuit long deemed unremunerative, for the Physeter family has multiplied space in re- cent years and sperm whaling is coining to its own again.

One of the best Ways to deal with the many real causes of anxious thought. is to be content to live just a day at the time. With' that rich wisdom which Sydney Smith could command, he adTised us to take short views of life. Each day is an entity in itself. It, is rounded on‘ by the gulf of sleep; it has its own hours which will never return; it stands separate with its own opporâ€" tunities and pleasures. John Wes- ley said he would as soon steal as “’ori'y'â€"-oach was equally a sin. And to Worry is Wfls-‘eful. foolish, and Wicked. Don’t worry. It is neither manly, helpful, or businessâ€"like, and no good ever resulted from the habit. Worrying can be overcome by exercisâ€" ing the Will-power. People of sensi- tive minds worry: over some trivial and thoughtless remark, and dwell upon it till it is magnified into a grieVOus and intentional insult. Past errors, and a gloomy anticipation of calamities to come are other forms of the unwholesome habit. There was also a most eccentric race between a, baby Warthog, a young ant bear, a, kangaroo, ablack goat, a monkey, a pet goose, a. Bar- bary sheep, a tortoise, a, forty pound turkey, a bantam rooster, an Egyptian scarahaeus, and, most. amazing of all, considering that each competitor was driven by its own lady owner. a common little mouse! The monkey wrung the goose's neck, the tur‘iey swallowed the scal‘abaeus, and the ant bear came in first. 'An exceedingly pretty race was the one for young girls, in which they trundled large wooden hoops which were fitted with spokes and gayly decorated with beautiful flowers. was a basket and ball rave for ladies. Each girl participating in it started out with a, basket containing a dozen balls and attended by a, mere male. As she ran she had to throw out of her basket all these balls, one after another, while her knight. in atten- dance was to pick them up as nim- bly as he could and return them to her. The first girl to succeed in getting to the winnig post with the twelve balls restored to her basket was to be the winner. In their scrambles after the balls some of the men cut such ludicrous figures that the spec- tators roared with laughter. At the end of the first 100 yards were stationed the young woman who had undertaken to assist in the race. What each competitor had to do was to run as speedily as he could to the particular girl who Was awaiting him, and kneel down before her while she neatly and properly tied his neck- tie. This done,’ he had only to get up and finish the race by covering the remaining 100 yards. But what seemed to be the most popular competition of all was the necktie race. In which the particiâ€" pants proper were gentlemen, though the fair sex had not a littie to do with their chances of success. The distance to be run was some 200 yards, and the competitors had all to start with their necktvies undone. In the result several of the girls dropped every one of their captured oranges before reaching the winning point, and only two succeeded in carrying home the ten circles of goldâ€" en fruit. What was described as an orange race for young women proved an inâ€" teresting and attractive event. At regular distances of ‘twenty yards from each other ten oranges were placed on the ground for EACH COMPETING DAMSEL. These had all to be picked up and brought back in the hands of the competitor to the finishing line. The difficulty of picking up an orange with several already in one's grasp must be experienced to be appre ciated, and the frantic efforts of the young women to pick up more than they could hold provided no end 0t amusement for the onlookers. The spectacle of the competitors in their attomps to swallow a bottle of soda water at once proved highly diverting, SeV’Dral sufi‘ering temporar- ily for their haste, although benefit- ing in tho end. They became so charged with gas that they felt as if they were bursting; and three of them were so discouraged by the efâ€" fects of the first bottle that they could not. face the second, and forthâ€" with retired from the race. At fixed diStBIICCS along the course bottles of highly charged English soda Water were placedâ€"four for each man. In order to win the race each bottle had to be opened in turn and the contents swallowed, it being a. condition that none should be spilled to avoid the ordeal of drinking it.
