CLYDE B. TERRELL 
OSHKOSH Dept. H-20G WIS. 
was still a heavy sea running. When 
within fifty miles of the French coast we 
encountered a water-logged felucca en- 
tirely stripped of spars and canvas. 
Three men and a dog were aboard who 
made frantic appeals for help, especially 
the dog, who barked incessantly. A life 
boat was lowered from the steamer and 
a crew sent to fetch them aboard, but 
they refused to leave the derelict and de- 
manded to be towed to port. They de- 
clared they would remain and go down 
with the worthless craft, as it was all 
they possessed in the world. A large 
hawser was then made fast to the hulk 
and it was towed for an hour or two, 
when the cable parted. Again the boat 
was sent to fetch them abroad, but still 
refusing a larger hawser was used, but 
this also broke under the strain in half 
an hour. A third time the boat was de- 
spatched to bring them abroad, but still 
refusing they were left to the mercy of 
the sea, which, however, subsided con- 
siderably, and they were nearer shore. 
P ASSING through the narrow entrance 
we were soon safely anchored in the 
magnificent harbor of Marseilles, the 
most important seaport of the Mediterra- 
nean, and for that matter in Europe, and 
the city one of the most populous; the 
population, however, is very much mixed, 
of every race and color and condition. 
There were many good hotels and fine pub- 
lic buildings and churches, but there being- 
no especial attraction we stayed but a day 
or two. One evening we visited a music 
hall, or chantant, and witnessed a very 
fair performance, and once more heard 
“Shoo Fly” and “Rah de Boom da ay l” 
which seemed to be very popular. One 
of the selections of the orchestra was 
“Dixie,” so we felt very much at home. 
The next day we went to Nice in the 
mid-carnival season and found every- 
thing gay and lively. Being the most 
popular winter resort for the royalty 
and nobility of Europe, the hotels were 
very much crowded, though with the luck 
of Americans, we found good quarters at 
a hotel kept by two brothers from Milan, 
and both good, all-’round sportsmen. 
Nice has a fine public garden and a mag- 
nificent boulevard along the sea called 
the English Promenade, which was 
thronged every afternoon with the fine 
carriages of the titled visitors; luckily 
there were no automobiles at that time. 
The elite, that is, the democratic pedes- 
trians of every clime, plodded along on 
sturdy legs and enjoyed the gay scene 
just as well. 
On the morrow there was to be the usu- 
al annual carnival, “Battle of Flowers.” 
For this event the entire sea front of the 
Promenade was furnished with newly- 
erected, temporary booths, with gay and 
festive decorations. On the morning of 
the great function the booths were filled 
with well-dressed ladies and gentlemen 
and masses of flowers. When the beauti- 
fully decorated carriages appeared, then- 
occupants were pelted with roses, lilies 
and many other floral missiles until the 
vehicles and guests were fairly buried in 
the welter of bloom. But apart from the 
fun and jollity of the occasion we agreed 
that the floral parades of Portland and 
Los Angeles were really finer. At night
