The Navy to the rescue! Ascending steps at the rear of the| butlding, ‘the mariner eéntered the| second story by the removal of the | majority of a window' pane. Leaving |, a trall of wrecked furniture encoun-| tered in haste, in total darkness, the saflor reached the front of the building and discovered his error. Bxit to the marquee over the sldewalk in front of the store was, accomplished by breaking a front| wiidow. From the marquee the| ‘mariner leaped straight into the arms of the law—in the persons of Police officers C. V. Kay and George Gilbéftson. The naval cele- brant went to jail but was released this morning after suitable adjust-| tents concerning the damaged [ur-i niture had been made. J. W. Jones, manager of the Ju- ‘neau Yoxmg Hardware Company, stated that it is surprising that more furniture had not been brok- |dents Shiorp 16 Best Half-wdy down'the colrse, with the Tallapoosa boiling out' fh front at every pull, the stroke counts were practically the same, giving proof that the short, high beat 'was the best plan.

And the Indianapolis settled that by tiring fast, the Detroit pulling out to 'a wide margin over the larg- er cruiser's entry, Gregoire, all smiles, again got: his traditional ‘‘ducking” - as the "win- ning coxswain.
