With the crew, it was a popular choice. And with the skipper the lad's brawn was ample assurance all orders would be obeyed promptly. Then came the storm, And then the | leak. "We struck a calm, but couldn't { move out for a month," related Blackie "But we couldn't stop the leak, and our food began to run low. "With three feet of water in our hold, a terrific gale struck us. For 30 days more we had to take turns at the pumps. "Our rations were down to two serv. ings of hot cakes a day. We had a pig on board, but he was our mascot, and there wasn't a man on the Castle who wouldn't have starved rather than kill him." Followed then a chapter which Blae- kie modestly refrains from telling. Oth- er members of the crew, however, do not hesitate to talk about it. The storm was at its height when the foresail and mansail blew away. Going aloft and repairing the damage was all that could save the ship. But it was a hazardous job. Blackie, though, did not falter. Nor did he call for volunteers. He climbed up in the hurricane's teeth, did what work was possible, then returned to deck. : "I'll be a landlubber until 1 feel the cail again," Blackie says. "Then I guess I'll go back to the sea. "But what I want most in all the world right now is a batch of | good square meals." - ------ Beer Garden Cornwall Ra'ded. Cornwall, Jume 4.--Cornwall's beer garden, made famous last fall by a raid from some thirty provincial officers from all over the district, was again the scene of a raid, when Pro- vincial Officers Wetherall and Seguin and Chief Paterson, acting on infor- mation received, made a search and recovered twenty-four bags each con- taining two dozen bottles, from the cool waters of the St. Lawrence. The man who is alleged to be the owner of the stock, and who is known to all three officers, took a row boat and struck out for Cornwall Island as s0on as the officers were sighted, and ade his escape, but the officers hope to arrest him as soon as he returns.
