Mary is just a small ketch, about 16 feet over all, The ceptain and his yery inte'ligent spaniel comprise the entire crew, and a ad crew it is; is the opin- on of the friends the captain has met in his travels, some of whom are in Key West today. Last year the Queen Mary left Halifax and in June sailed from Portland, Me., on the long voyage around the United States, which will lead through the. Panama Ca- nal to the captain’s destination. Captani Crowell does not lack company on his long trips, as the spaniel, it is said, is a very intel- ligent animgl, and obeys the com- mands of the master implicitly.
