The hopelessness of ever regaining the cnI
viii not be due altogether TO the lack of fast
sailing qualities on the part of American
yachts, but to the popularity of English
yachting rules, which makes a virtue of small
breadth of beam, SO that the wider beam
yachts of the Yankee type would have to
give English yachts of the same length of
keel a considerable time allowance, which
would preclude their winning a race. Mr..
Webb has suggested a mean of the yachting
rules of both countries to govern these inter-
national contests, but neither side will listen
to it.
MIR. Webb has come here as agent for the
English manufacturers of corrugated steel
boiler furnaces, which congress has recently
permitted to enter free of duty.
Mr.. Wehh is an extremely modest man.
He would not give any of his life romance to
the press. But on it being suggested that he
did not look like an Englishmail he said: aNo,
Pm an Irishman, but do not say anything
about that" So we refrain.
For thirty years or more the jolly British
tar has been making yachting a. scientific
study, she result being the evolution of the
cutter type of yacht, and with it the opportu.
nifty CT recovering the Americas cup. The
challenge MIR. Webb sent last year was a
double-Darreled one. 1t was for the Genestsl
and also the Galatea, which was then on the
stocks The idea WIS that in case I've did not
bring down'the Americas cup with the first

Cure For Pies.

Piles are frequently preceded by a sense
of weight in the back, loins and lower part
OF the abdomen, causing the patient to
suppose he has come affection of the kid
neys or neighboring organs. At times,
symptoms of indigestion are present, as
aatulency, uneasiness of the stomach, etc.
A moisture, like Precipitation, producing q
disagreeable itching, after getting warm is
a common attendant. Blind, bleeding
and itching Piles yield at once to the APP
plication of Bosanko's Pile Remedy, which
acts directly Upon the parts affected,
absorbing the tumors, allaying the intense
itching, and effecting a permanent cure.

one that would capture the international
challenge cup, known as the Americas cup,
which the yacht America won over all the
yachts in Europe in 1851, and which has been
successfully defended by American yachts on
several occasions since. Britannia may rule
the wave, but she cannot in truth be termed
mistress of the seas as long as that cup re
mains on this side of the Atlantic. So with
this purpose in view, Mr.. Webb has been
studying and designing yachts for years.
The Galatea is an improvement on the &C.
nesta, and so confident is Mr.. Webb of her
success in the coming races that he has given
up yacht building to come here and engage
in other business.
Meeting him the other day in his sumptuous
office, in Wall street, New York, he said:
"Yes, | am satisfied with the Galatea. She
did not show her best work last season, owing
to the lack of a proper crew, but with the
continuous drilling they have had during
their transatlantic y we expect to
show you some fast sailing, and if the Gala
tea carries the cup home with her, you may
say" Throwing a kiss with his fingers agood-
by to the cup forever"

Evolutionist, Philosopher and Author of
the principles of Sociology"

One of the great minds of England is pass
ing away from among men. Herbert Spencer
has been troubled for years with persistent
insomnia and nervousness. When he visited
America in 1882 he carried a hop pillow with
him everywhere to produce sleep. But the
obstinate trouble seems to be getting the bet
ter of him at last. Herbert Spencer is not a
very old m "a as we count age o He-was
born in Derby, England, in 1920. He is. not
as old as Gladstone by eleven years, nor has
his life been passed amid anything like the
wear and tear through which the great pre-
mier has lightly carried his rs years.
Mr.. Spencer was educated by his father,
who was a teacher in Derby. He early
showed great fondness for mathematics and
natural history.
He was intended for a civil engineer, and
engaged in that profession at first. But so
many other young men crowded into it that
the field was ~overstocked. Young Spencer
abandoned it to try literature. If he had had
his beginning in our time he would have
found the journalistic and literary field
crowded to such a degree that the civil engi-
neer's profession would be emptiness in com
parison,
Next TO Charles Darwin, Herbert Spencer
has had influence on the scientific thought of
his time. The two minds were similar, ex-
cept that Darwin's ran rather to the field Of
active experiment and research among ami
mails INK things, Spencer's more to develop
ing philosophical thought in The study and
library. Spencer was as ardent an evolution
ist as Darwin, but he was more interested in
evolution as applied to government and
society. When only % years old he published
a series of papers on the proper sphere of gov
eminent. He took the humane and enlight-
ened ground that too much government was
worse than none at all.
His first important work was published in
1850, when he was 80 years old. 1t was "Social
States; or the Conditions Essential to Human
Happiness Specified, and the First OF Them
Developed" Itis a striking fact in the career
of this great thinker that that first book OF
his has never been excelled, If, indeed, it has
been equaled, by anything he wrote later.
Little is known of his private life; at least
1t seems as If there was little to know. He is
a quiet, elderly bachelor, and has dwelt in a
London lodging house time out of mind.

Ieige came at a time when the Americans
were unusually ill-prepared. In running over
the list of yachts we possessed it was found
there was no sloop large enough TO compete
with the coming Britishers. But through
the patriotic craftsmanship of a few gentle
men the Priscilla and Puritan sprang into
existence within the six months allowed be-
tween the reception of the challenge and the
race. 50 the Puritanand the Genesta meas
ured taeh. speed side by side, and though the
Genesta failed she became a gauge by which
other English yachts speed could be tested,
and as the Galatea has proved herself faster
than the Genesta, the chances of our losing
the cup this year are exceedingly great.
