mer front lr wui lis
Chicaoo, March 29. Captain
Paul Boy n ton, the noted swimmer,
had an experience in Lake Michi
gan Tuesday which he will not
forget for some time. The captain
has grown heavy during the win
ter and to rednce his flesh has re
cently taken little pulls out into
the lake in his rubber suit. Tues
day morning at 7 o'clock he left.
Fuller. on avenue for a swim to
South Chicago and return and
met with the most thrilling advei.- .
ture of his life, in which he battled
for hours with a great ice floe, was
carried many . miles out into the
lake, stripped i his navigating in-
struraents and lost for fifteen hours
in the cold, bleak waste of drifting
ice, hanging clouds and struggling
ducks and gulls. From 7 o'edock
in the morning until midnight the
captain was without food or drink
and the chill of the icy water had
driven him to the desperate resoit
oi hard work all that time to keep
up a vigorous circulation so that he
vou ki not chill and peiishinthe
lake. At midnight, when he was
rescued at the crib.his vitality was
almost gone, stimulants were
applied and the daring navigator
put to bed. A telephone message
was sent to the police that the
captain was saved and by them
taken to his little family, a wife
and son, who were distracted by
his long absence and supposed he
had perished.
Captain lioynton was in bed
when a reporter called at his home
last evening. He was exhausted,
the reaction from his desperate ex
citement of the day before having
made him weak and sick.
THE CAPTAIN'S STORY.
"When I entered the water at
7 o'clock," the captain said,"there
was a fresh west wind. I swam
about two miles, intending to
clear the crib for a trip to bouth
Chicago. Just about the limit of
my run cast i began to meet ice.
1 pushed through it for a time and
then ran across some floes onto
which I climbed. Meanwhile a
heavy sky had shutout all view of
the sun and the wind had got the
ice together. I struggled quite a
while in what I thought was the
v,xs;ern border of the field and
";hen ran into what I thought was
a pocket, i puneu inrougu h ana
came again to straggling noes.
I must have . fought them until h
o'clock txrforc i missed my com
pass. When I looked to get iny .
bearings, have noticed that the
city had faded from -view, f found -the
baud which bound the com
pass to in v bod v had either been
severed bv a piece of ice or had
become uubuckied. It was gone.
The sun was hidden and there
was nothing by wiiicti I could get

out somewhere or perish.
FIGHTING F03 HIS MF'E.
I looked about stud sw the
field of ice was at my feet. 1 swam
feet foremost and tbeu concluded
that I had only to pud for the ice
to reach Cluesufo. bo I started.
and vigorously, too. For rive hours
I worked us i never did before.
l'he water was heavy aud lifeless.
I had to light tor every inch I
made. Chicago was still nowhere
to be seen and I had no notion of
tiie time ot day. Ti en I changed
my course about half way round
aud pulled hard for awhile. The
ice gathered about me again and
night came ' I was fighting
again lor my nie. sometimes I
could dodge the drift, at others I
climbed uuou tne cakes and
crossed them. When the moon
rose 1 got a dash or a view of ir
and then saw my mistake. I had
crossed the field in the moriiinsr
when I eutered what I thought
was a pocket, and all the long pull
of the day. with the ice at my feet,
nad driven me towards Michigan.
The turn I had taken had sent me
south. I set about and pushed for
the moon. At 10 o'clock I saw a
faint light in the sky, and an hoar
later perceived ? it "was from the
furnaces at South Qhicago. Then
I got my bearings and sighted the
lights' of the crib. I pulled up
there at midnight and blew my
bugle. I must have called a half
dozen times before an answer came.
Then Captain McKay answered my
signal and I shouted, 'Crib ahoy,'
Aye, who's there?' the captain
answered. 'I must stay here to
night,' 'Pull round to the port.
"When I got there they dropped
a bit of a rope, into which I fixed
my foot, and then they drew me:
up. They gave me . refreshments,
put me to bed and telephoned .to
my wife that I was safe. Captain
McKay says when I left the ice
at night it was fully fifteen miles
from shore, and I think he is about
right, because the swim in would '
take about the time used. ; I ha w
swam greater distances, but that
was the first tlinu I ever was lot
and the battle with the ice and'
cold was a more ihnUins- enisnrlo
than I care to
experience again.
