SCHOONER GLADSTONE
SLUICED OFF BEACH
Sluicing a schooner into the sea,
was the scene enacted last evening
at low tide when, under the super
vision of Chief Martin Lanning of
the city’s utility department, 300
feet of hose was strung out down
onto the beach and with about a 90
pound pressure, the sand and gravel
about the hull of the schooner Glad
stone, was swept away in a short
time, enabling the vessel, at high
tide, to shake the dust of the beach
from her heels.
The vessel has been undergoing re
pairs on the beach for a number of
days past. The repairs being com
pleted, efforts to run the boat off at
high tide proved -unavailing under
her own power, until the above as
sistance was rendered.
