I s o u n Brookings, June 17.—A record long keeper squash, which, it has been suggested may have some con nection with the old Indian squash. HI nee it was found on a South Da kota reservation, has come to light and is now being investigated by State College scientists. The squash .s apparently a pure native Indian variety. Charles Camp bell, principal of the boarding school at Cheyenne Agency, took a num ber of the vegetables directly from the field to an upstairs room in his home last fail. The room had a stove pipe running through it which kept the temperature at all times above freezing. The squashes were used on occasions during the winter and on May 18. when H. E. Daw**, superin tendent of short courses in the State College extension service was a guest at the school the last one was served. Interested and impressed with the soundness of the vegt-table.

Sailing JEC1R0 OF THt RBI MEI in the Flftfee, She Wade tha fttm te Liverpool in 13 Days 1 Ovation Hour ano 2S Minutas—8ea Racer Given Great on Arrival in Port—Doubt Cast en Record Claimed for tha Dreadnought—Other FHiWM Voy ages. Much testimony has been offered ol late to show that the New York dip l»er ship Dreadnought never made the run credited to her »y some writers— y days and 17 hours from Sandy Hook lightship to Daunt'a Bock, gueenstown, but there is little need of evidence or argument on that ques tion, for few who know much of ships and the sea have ever believed tha* the famous clipper sailed that fast. While they are at It. however, the sea sharps might as well tell who did make the transatlantic, or New York Liverpool record, if Captain Samuel* didn't. Downeasters are inclined to award the great distinction to the clip per Red Jacket, built at Rockland. Me., in the fifties. The Red Jacket has a well-attested record of 13 days 1 hour and 25 minutes from Sandy Hook lightship to Liverpool pier head, ami It is not recalled that anything faster has been claimed for a sailing vessel. Liverpoolians Excited. It is related that the Collins line steamer, which left New York a day of two after the Red Jacket, arrived lu Liverpool ine Sunday afternoon and brought the news that the Yankee cllp l«er was Just astern. Those were sporting days lu the clipper service, and there was us much interest in the performance of fast ships as there now is In any other time records, big money often being wagered on sailing contests. When the news spread along the Liverpool harbor froat the people rushed in thousands to tlie docks, and every pier was llack with the specta tors awaiting the arrival of ftie new sea racer. Outside the port tugs had offered to low the clipper, but the ship was going so fast that they couldn't keep the hawsers taut, and so had toj give it up. The Red Jacket swept into the Mersey with everything drawing, presenting a spectacle that brought, cheers from the a»etul»lei multitudes, Then, as tugs came abmgMde to dock her. the ship's master gave all hands a thrill they had least expected—he ignored the tugs. and. throwing the Ued Jacket up into the wind, actually bucked her alongside the pier, while the crew took In sail with a celerity that seemed like magic to the spec tators. The Red Jacket was a ship of about H.300 tons, old measurement had a very long floor, like a Penobscot river lumberman a hatteau, ami could carry] a tremendous spread and also point high. She carried as figurehead the image of the Indian chief Red Jacket, artistically caned from a log of pump kin pine. She prospered finely in the clipper service, was later sold to Eng lish account and sailed tn the Austra lian trade, and at last accounts, after some years of carrying lumber from the St. Lawrence to the United King dom. was dismantled nod used as a coal hulk at Malta. The Dreadnought's Run. In some records the Dreadnought credited with a run of 13 days and eight hours from New York to Liver pool. and it Is well authenticated that she ran from Honolulu to New Bed ford, 13,470 miles, in *£2 days. She was built at Newburyport, Mass^ la 1853 by William Currier and James T. Townaend to the order of I'IOV. E. D. Morgan. Captain Samuels of Brooklyn, tier first master, and others. Her fame was as wide as the seas and she soon acquired the name of a racer—"the wild ship of the Atlantic,** sailors used to call her. She carried on her fore sail a fiery red cross by which she was easily identified at sea. She was 200 feet between perpendiculars, 217 feet on deck. 40 feet beam, 26 feet depth of hold gross tonnage, 1,443 net, 1,227. Strictly speaking she was only a half clipper, but her unusual beam gave her the ability to stand up under a press of sail that would send a full clipper plowing under. She iras lost on July 4, 1809, while on a voyage from Liverpool to San Francisco, be ing piled up on Cape Penas. to the northeastward of Tierra del Fuego. At that time she was commanded by Cap tain Mavhew.

After discharging at San Fran disco she sailed :o Honolulu and from thst port ran to New York In 88 day# without starting s tack. In ten con secutive days she made 3.300 miles. From New York she sailed for Liver pool, was becalmed on the Banks of Newfoundland, and when she got a chance ran from the Banks to the Mer sey in five and one-half days, the whole passage being made in 13 days and 19 feours. Among her best single day's runs are recorded 419 and 487 miles, on a passage from New York to San Francisco.

The Samuel Russell of Boston in 1854 made 318 miles In one day, homeward bound from Whampoa. In 30 consecutive days she covered 0,722 miles, or near ly half the distance from New York to China.

Among fast passages of compara tively recent times, by rather full built American ships, is that of the S. D. Carieton of Rockport, Me., in 18B2. from New York to San Francisco. She i arrived off the River Plate in 40 days, the Horn in 76 and San Francisco in 106. and 18 days were lost rolling Some of tlie fore and afters also have done grrat sailing.
