When Hiring 4 SAIL Boat.

Of course L assume that you will have
10 hire your boat, so a word upon this sub
Ject may be timely. At every water side
resort there are boats 70 let. and many OF
them are unseSworthy Before you hire
sail boat examine her carefully. see that
her rigging Is not rotten, that every rope
runs freely in its pulleys, that her rudder
Is secure, and her center6oard free in its
trunk. Never so out IN yacht which is
not aell ballasJed, provided with a good
anchor and cable. and free from leaks.
Most boats leak little, but g boat that is
half full of water every day Is sure to be
old, rotten and unseawagthy. See 10 it
that the yacht has pump, and that the
pump is in order Any boy can determine
these matters for himself If he VIII be OBJ
servant and cautious. You must always
remember that almost any waterman will
rent you a boat, 10 matter how bad she
may be; for the waterman cares more for
your money than for you. There are ex-
ceptions, bur they arc few.

KILKENNY. Dec 22.-Now that the contendinR
hosts have been well marshaled and all the
preparations Of the government made TO enable
the electors Of North Kilkenny to register their
votes without incurring the penalty Of broken
heads, il is admitted on all sides that the very
fierceness of the contest has minimized its i'm
portance. since il has disclosed violence u
rancor and division of sentiment 80 radical
that neither side will now be willing 90 abide
by the decision Of a single constituency. MIR.
Parnell has within the past twenty -four hours
several times declared that in case of defeat be
did not intend 10 do so, and the victory that
would now compel the return of the McCar-
thyites to the Parnellian fold would have TO bs
a very sweeping one indeed. The unpleasant
fact then. remains the most undeniable con-
clusion from the Kilkenny campaign that il will
be only the first Of a series of similar contests

court have too heavily handicapped him. Ii is

George Taylor Gets q Favorable Decision
From the Court I'm General Term.
Judge Hagner today in the Court in General
term, delivered the opinion Of the court in the
cases of George Taylor against Tyler Ruther-
ford, Taylor against w. b. Moses ct al, &C.,
setting aside a sale made by trustees and direct
ing proceedings below The first case was for the
purpose of resembling the sale made December
q, 1886, of complainant's property, subs 49 to
60 and part 4s, square 2l4, under a deed of trust
to secure the payment Of 100000. The prop
erty was sold to W. B. Moses for sg7 900 and
the complainant asked that the sale be re-
scinded on the ground that the price
obtained was inadequate, that it took
place after dark and it was knocked down to
the purchaser when there were but two bid
ders on the ground. He asserted that the prop
erty situated on Vermont avenue between L
street and Thomas circle it was worth from
$150, 900 to S175.0O0, and alleged that in the
ale there was a conspiracy.
The defendants asserted that the sale was
S87 900, and that the bidding narrowed to Mr..
Richmond of Philadelphia and Mr.. Moses, and
it was finally knocked down to the latter.
Judge Hagner in deciding the case referred
to the testimony, showing by eleven witnesses
for the complainant and seven for defendants
the valuation of the property; the average of
the first named being s145, ,6S6, and Of the de-
fendant's witnesses $97 ,27l, one Of the defend
ants witnesses being one who placed before q
valuation of S150, 900 on what he now values at
S97, 900.
There was loss to Taylor Of 900 and the
court would not confirm q sale when such q loss
is shown. The property was advertised, the
court said, ut 4:S0 O'Clock December z, when the
sun is down, and it was an unsuitable hour, and
besides the property was sold in a lump

were empowered to sell it piece by piece until
the amount in default was realized The
prayer to rescind the sale was granted. The
court said new sale must be made and further
proceedings taken below. Eessrs. N. Wilson
and W. F. Mattingly appeared for Mr.. Taylor.
