TRENTON. April 20.--In the senate a
resolution to relieve the committee on
revision Of laws from further considera-
ton of the 5 per cent. interest bill was
lost. The bin asking Pennsylvania to
Join with New Jersey in legislation for
damming the Delaware at Trenton was
passed. A concurrent resolution pro-
posing an amendment to the constitu-
ton so as to permit special legislation
for cities was passed in the assembly.
In conformity with the Democratic
caucus plan the bill allowing railroad
companies to condemn land for depot
purposes, which bill was defeated yes
terday, was taken from the table. The
motion to reconsider its defeat was
lost--3i TO %.
The house killed the bill making it un-
lawful for employers TO exact pledge
from employees TO withdraw from labor
organizations or trades unions.

The Trust Il skeptical.

New YORK, April 20. AT the Office OF
the Havemeyer Sugar Refining company
very little stock was taken in the rumol
that Claus Spreckels had cornered this
years crop of sugar. One OF the mem
bers of the firm said to a United Press
reporter: The talk of a commission Is
absurd We don't know how much sugar
Mr.. Spreckels has. of course. nor does he
known how much to other retiners
have. The visible supply in New York
is only / sa foils-nauch less than ithas
been for years, than it has been for years,
but this represents only what is actually
for sale on the market. Mr.. Spreckels
has not got corner on sugar. He
would have a white elephant on his
hands.
Another refner said: 'sThe supply of
sugar in. importers hands this year in
New York is put down at IA, 1873 tons, as
against over 1U0, 900 tons year ago. But
there Is no danger of a corner. In three
weeks we could get all we want from
foreign markets. There arc 994, 900 tons
in the market in the principal foreign
countries.

CHICAGO, April When the Chicago
and All America baseball teams stepped
off the train from the east at 6:35 last
evening in this city they had completed
their circuit of the globe. The tourists
met with grand ovation, thousands of
people thronging the station to catch
glimpse of the famous athletes. It was
after o'clock when the carriages con-
tanning the players wheeled into line for
the grand parade through the business
district of the city. Many thousand of
people lined the curb stones and the pro-
gress through the streets was attended
by the greatest enthusiasm. Fireworks
and red FIRE illumined the streets through
out the line of march, which was partic-
ipated in by all the uniformed amateur
baseball clubs in this city, the athletic
clubs generally and large number of
bicyclists headed by hands of music.
The procession marched past the city
and county buildings and all the news
paper offices, the latter being serenaded
in turn. The teams were cheered at
every point, and when they alighted at
the Palmer house, they received a ire
mendous ovation.

The Fungus Demon.

II suppose that many persons have
noticed the great increase in flies In AL

State Entomo logist Lintner to-day. "In
some localities they have apparently
come in swarms, like the sudden invas-
ion of an army. This occurrence de-
serves note, as being an unusually

cieS of fly known as the common house.

species or more that occur in our dwell

Gle before the end of the
month of August, but the pc
culiar meteorological conditions of
the present year have brought
it this season weeks in advance of its
proper time. l noticed this morning
upon my windOw-panes the commence
ment of the fungus attack that every
year kills many of our houSetlies, caus-.
ing them to adhere to the walls, furni-
ture or windows, and surrounding them
with the fungus thrown out from their
bodies, and looking like. white, pow
derry substance. have no recollection
of ever seeing this fungus attack in for
mer years earlier than the month of
August. Rust on oats was reported by
by farmers as early as last month, ow-
ing, no doubt, to the excessive rainfall
and moisture Of the present season.
Indications point not only to an UNI
usually early appearance of rusts,
blights, mildews, ETC., which are differ
ent forms of fungus attacks, but to re-
markable prevalence of them, to the
great injury of the farmer, fruitgrOwer,
vineyardist, ETC."

1t Was the Umpire's Day Off

1t had been close game. And it had
been full of those close decisions which
both clubs and their hackers think
wrong if the voice of the umpire is
against their wishes. Finally, in the
tenth inning, when the bases were full
and only one run was needed to win, the
umpire decided the striker out.
This was the straw that broke the
camers back. The losing club rushed
at the umpire with shrieks and curses,
and but for the prompt interference of
the police he would have been butchered
then and there.
The excitement was prodigious. The
angry masses surged back and forth,
and every man on the ground but one
was in fury. That solitary exception
that one calm and unruffled man-WaS
the umpire.
His imperturable patience and suav-
ity attracted the attention of reporter,
and when the mob had exhausted its
violence against the protecting Gordon
of police, and the umpire was at length
able to leave the field in safety, the re-
porter accosted him.
''Well, you earned your money to-
day." he remarked, alphabetically.
''Oh, | don't KNOW" SAID the quiet
man. ''That wasn't much. Pm just off
for my holiday and resting myself"
MAY / ask you, SIR" inquired the re-
porter respectfully, ''if the scene of to-
day strikes you as holiday rest, what
may be your regular busineSs?''

Washinston's Morning Nip.

The New York Commercial Adver-
tiser has stirred up hornets nest by
printing the description ofW Washington
given by David Ackerson in 1911. Ack-
erson knew Washington well, and must
have known what he was about when
he said that the general on rising every
morning took drink of rum or whisky.
But a prohibitionists writes to the
Advertiser denouncing Ackerson as
a liar. He says: From what we
know of the character of Washington it
is impossible for us to believe that so
great and good man would touch,
taste. OF handle, much less drink alco-
hol, that poisonous dram of the devil,
and hereby brand AckerSon as an I'M
mitigated liar" This is strong Ian
guage. A glance at the "WaShington
papers" and the list of; the articles
Washington asked Edmund Randolph
to send him would have caused
the correspondent of the .AdFer-
tiser to hold his { peace. The
fact is, great and good men in
olden times occasionally took their
dram, and one of the graDdest and best
men of these days, whose voice is often
raised for prohibition, takes, according
to his sons statement, seven ounces of
alcohol per day. 1t won't do to deny
mans greatness or goodness simply be-
cause he has his own ideas about diet
and drink. 1t is not on record that
Washington's morning nip harmed him
or any one elSe.-Atlanta Constitution.

THE MANITOU WINS.
Close Race Of Yachts on White
Bear Lake.

Bear Lake.
The White Bear Yacht club sailed an
other regatta on White Bear lake yes
terday afternoon. The day was one of
the finest of the season, and the breeze
that was blowing caused the hearts of
yachtsmen to beat with joy. There was
a large attendance and nearly all of the
yachts carried interested spectators, the
fair sex lending a charm to the occasion
by their smiling and eager faces and
jaunty sailor costumes. MesSrs. Grun-
dy and Harler, the regatta COM
mittee were on hand. and it was about
$3.50 when they took their station at the
starting line in the referees launch.
The signal to go was given at 1886, and
j. Howard Ramaley's Lady Laura was
the first to cross the line. She was
closely followed by the Zidira and Mar
guerite, the others crossing almost in
bunch, though one or two were nearly
five minutes in getting away. The
entries were: Lady Laura, j. Howard
Ramaley; Zidira, Capt. Hewett;
Manitou, Eugene Ramaley; Marguerite,
Capt. Taylor; Nellie, Capt. Elmer; For
tuna, DR.. Welsh; Mary Ann, Capt.
Corning; Olena. Capt. Hewett. The
race was the last of the series for the
$50 silver cup offered by the club. DR..
Weish's Fortuna had one race. Capt.
Hewell's Zidira two and Eugene
Ramaley'a Manitou. By the way.
the Manitou was formerly the No
Home, but has had her name
changed. 1t was expected that this
race would be holly contested. and per-
hapS the ownership OF the cup settled.
Erpp, tl,a cto NJ II nil md tnnly Int
the ManitOn rounded the first buoy and
got the lead, and kept 1T. all the way
home, although she was hard pressed at
times by the Marguerite. The course
was from Lake Shore to DellwOOd, to
the Mahtomedi end of the lake, and
back to Lake Shore, and is fully eight
miles long. The Manltou crossed the
home line at 4:40, just 1:04 from
the time of starting. The Marguerite
followed her three minutes later, and
the Zidira three minutes after the Mar
guerite. The Manitou has now won
two races and the Zidira two, thus being
tied for possession of the cup. Two
weeks from yesterday they will sail
race in the morning to decide which
shall be the winner. There is consid
cradle speculation among the yachts
men in regard to the outcome of the
race, as the boats are nearly evenly
matched and are pretty fast. Next
Saturday afternoon the club will sail
what is called Corinthian race. for a
silver cup offered for the occasion by
the regatta committee. The start in
such a race is made from where the
yachts are anchored. and the crews
must weigh anchor, set sails, etc. The
first one to get back to anchor and furl
sails will be the winner.
