NEW York, June 19.-The members of
the Scawanhaka Yacht Club and other
yachtsmen who were interested ia the six
teenth Corinthian Regatta Of that club,
which took placeF day, were highly de-
lighted this morhiag when they awoke and
found good stiff breeze blowing from the
northward. The wind was of sufficient
force to make little sea, and the yachts
bobbed up and down on the water in way
which brought joy to the hearts of their
shippers. As the morning advanced, how
ever, the breeze died away, and by half
past ten o'clock it was blowing less than
eight miles an hour, scarcely sufficient to
fill tbs big sails of the larger boats. The
start was flying one across a line between
the judges boat, the Luckenbach, and the
Bastion of Fort Waysworth. The course
for all classes except the fourth and fifth
class sloops and cutters was to the east of
the black buoys on the line Of the west

thencete buoy 81, thence north of buoy
No. 5 to Sandy Hook hght-ship, and return
over the same course.

sloops came home almost abreast before a
good southerly wind. The Puritan crossed
the line first at $3.50. The Priscilla was
second, two minutes and forty seconds
later. The Mayfower third, three minutes
and thirty seconds behind, and the Allan
tic last, ten seconds later.

Restless Nights in summer.

Midsummer nights dreams are oft
caused by the oppressiveness Of thepreva
ing heat. A portion Of the physical pro-
tration is caused by wearing heavy clot
Jag. and it is fact that few persons after
to the outer portion of their Summer at
tire, except in wearing suits light in color,
no attention being paid to weight. WheI
heat is oppressive a lightweight suit is den
sifable, but if sudden change sh ula'
occur then don your ordinary clothing The
Marshall Bali Clothing Company have just'
placed upon their counters mems and boys
suits, made on purpose for hot weather USE
The price Is sure to control thssale of such
goods. Just think! IS for mans suit,.
and 50 for a large boy outfit. Il yon DIR
rot afford time to examine the material BY
these suits, you had better pass on and
lose the greatest bargains ever offered inA
this or any other city.

less prepared to have good time. The

Last Friday Night.
The most successful moonlight excursion
ever given under the auspices of the Jersey
City Dramatic Club occurred last Friday
evening The weather was all that could
be desired, and the moon seemed to do its
prettiest during the sail Of six hoxrs on the
placid waters Of the noble Hudson. The
steamer WA. Fletcher. Capt. Eaimons at
the wheel, left the Msrrs street dock
shortly after s, and without any stops pro-
ceeded up the river twanty miles, or about
two miles above Yonkers. The guests
were all members of the Club, or specially
invited guests, and numbered about 200,
composed Of old and young. bat the younger
portion predominsting. The sail was
refreshing, as well as inviSerating, and the
cool breezss made by stiff north wind
kept those on board continually on the
move, and every time against their de-
termination not to move again, let the
wind blow which way it would. There
were Rotations by members of the Club,
and continual dancing to the inspiriting
music of Prof. Seiferts Band. Several
attempts at singing were made, but the
voices did not seem to be in practice. At
midnight substantial lunch of sand
witches, coffee, cake and ice cream was
served by the ladies of the Club, who made
such acceptable mattresses with their
pretty white aprons that the guests eat
yoraciously. More than 475 sandwiches
were consumed, and number of extra
dishes Of ice cream were served to the
chosen few. In the company were: Mr..
and Mrs. H. Buchanan and daughter, Mr..
and Mrs. J. Gordon Emmsns, Mr.. and
Mrs. A. P. Dayton, Mr.. and Mrs. W. H.

interest to ladies as well as gentlemen. 1t

any other store, don't fail to come and ex-
anime our stock. We carry as large line
of goods as any house in New York. We
manufacture many of our own goods and
we purchase the balance for cash. Ws

Of sight, then we will never ask you to
visit our store again. This is an absolute
fact.

EARLY CLOSING.



All the merchants Of prominence in
Jersey City have come into accord with
the early closing movement. Cards an
nouncing that the stores will be closed at
s o'clock every evening appear in very
many of the store windows. The TArrLER
has printed 500 of The cards among the
merchants, and most of them are in use.
The majority of the merchants have signed
q positive agreement to close at O'Clock
every evening except Saturday in every
month in the year except December. Others
who have not signed will close at o'clock
in conformity with the rule, unless abreach
If hith on the part of some prompts them
to keep open later. The members of the
Early Closing Association are busy creating
a healthy public sentiment among purches
ers against buying after O'Clock, and every
package that goes from the stores contains
a circular in that interest Messrs Myron
]. Furst and George w. Clerihew have, by
letter solicited every priest and minister in
the city to advise his congregations to sup
pert the movement by, early purchasing,
and very many fiat ering replies have been
received 1t is likely that public sentiment
on the question will be more directly
aeitated in the near future by series of
mass meetings. The o'clock movement
does not however apply to the furniture
dealers, every one OF whom closes promptly

NO WORLD WILL Re KEPT ON
THIS STAND.

The story iof the reason for the news
dealers fight against the New York World
was told in the TArrLKR when the struggle
frst began. The World had allowed the
newsdealers a certain margin of profit on
its original eight-page paper. It added
eight pages more to the news carriers
bundle, without increasing his profit, and
eight pages more were added to the bur
den till dozen Worlds weighed nearly
half ton. The newsdealers, who had at
the start been able to carry their papers
under their arms, now have to hire men
and boys to help carry the same Humber Of
papers. AS the additional pages were
filed with advertisements from which
the World bosses were reaping harvest
of wealth, the newsdealers demanded
more profit fer distributing them. The
World would not accede to their demands.
And SO this morning they have one and all
decided not to handle it all. The refusal
to serve the paper is not to be confined to
the Sunday edition but week days as WELL
uutil the World comes to ter ms, it viii be
excluded from the stands. The newsdeal-
ers have issued the following =
APPEAL TO THE PUBLIC.
To-day the nswsdealers Of this and adjacent
cities take step BY which they hope to relieve
themselves of the increasing burdens which are
being imposed upon them BY some OF the New
fork morning papers, of which the N. 7. World is
chief.
The nowsdeaie1s contend that it is neither right
nor fair 70 them or to our local papers for the "
y World to impose upon them NeN Jersey eti-
ron when they are compelled to insert serve and
sell without any remuneration whatever and
which the ~. Z. World itself admits to be asspar
ase paper, OF Is they advertise it, two papers for
the price of one" Further, that on Sunday the
only day on which q fair profit is allow the
Yo, u increases our burdens by issuing fotI Nm
pletes eight-page papers thus increasing thi Apf
olstrlDutlon so as to make it impossible II
rier to gain any prodt for his labor at ALL
The N. 7. World contends that it mas tn
max me price what it chooses, without Cd
ton OF the rights of aewsmen.
Granted; we will not argue che point;
say to the public at large. that If, after vol
through half the night, through hail, snow
rain, through heat and cold, we are rot entitled
our pay, or to somo consideration from the pub
we say. let us die like dogs and be buried
beasts of burden, which we are.
10 tne public, then, we indite this appeal. al
especially to those who live W the fruits Of the
daily tell. If they consider our cause just one,
patranlze only those who wear the Union bAdRd
sna Who strive to elevate themselves, their fei
low and the trade in general.
We do not intend TO charge any extra price 4
