The Increase of Yachting.

l have been forcibly reminded this sum
mer of the growth of the holiday spirit in
busy New York by the enormous increase in
the number of yachts. They fairly swarm
about the harbor and rivers on pleasant
days. Little and big. every one of them rep
resents q deal of fresh air to the owners and
an impetus to domestic %shipbuilding indus
try. Tn increase is most rapid in steam and
naptha launches and yachts. The wonder
tut speed which has been developed by
young Henrst's Herreshoff boat has set
everybody marveling. Thirty miles an
Jour is a speed that makes one giddy to
watch, II n roor newspaper cuss like
Hearst can't have a floating palace like Jay
Gould's Atalanta, w. X. Vanderbilt's Aiva
or Benefits Namouna, he can at least beat
them in suced. More than that, he could
go round and round the City of Paris or the
Majestic going at full speed.
IL is pretty safe to look for a still further
growth of tho yachting habit. which can be-
gratitied at An initial expense of from $500
up and which beats horse racing for the
exAilaration of speed.

Soda Water and whisky.

In every big newspaper building in New
York where any spare room ia available for
rental on the ground floor is a soda water
fountain. At each of these two or three or
fou white jaoketed young men are kept re-
markably busy drawing sweetened wind all
day and half the night. In each case the
fountain has an insignificant drug store an
mex, but it's the soda water that pays the
bulk of the thousands and thousands of
dollars rent. The newspaper buildings are
not exceptional, the whole down town and
almost exclusively masculine district is
full of soda shops.
A liquor saloon was started not long ago
in one of the newspaper buildings and it's
protector couldn't make it pay.
Isn't there something suggestive about
these facts? The truth is, the hard drink
considerably modified for the better. There
may be no more total abstainers. possibly
not 80 many in proportion, and statutory
prohibition hasn't yet throttled the demon
rum" to n great extent, but drinking to
e3o's' ,, is oo st a +p on the decrease:
the still the CHASTITY number Of
ssloons on nearly evesy block course.
It's q sight disheartening enough at best,
but u good deal more beer than whisky is
sold in them. No saloons are now without

wisdom of swallowing so much ice cold
liquid may be doubted, but at least it
doesn't make a man drunk.
Hero in Nav York, where the liquor deal
ers are at present in open revolt against the
continued exactiona of Tammanv Hall and
thoir organ, the Wine and Spirits Gazette,
breathes out ire and Strengthening, the num-
Der of saloons is by no means increasing MS
rapidly at the reputation. Yet high license
and other measures to restrict the number
never looked mo o remote.
There are plenty of flies in tho ointment
vet, but a worse state of affairs might easily
be irnagined-or remembered.

Must Go.

Whenever l hear a nice-looking young
woman avowing herself a smoker Of cigar
cites or possibly cigars, l remember how l
once happened to pass through a farm
kitchen away In the backwoods late ut
to be startled by the pungent odor OF to-
bacco, and by n figure at the stove that
rustled and reiterated at my approach. 1t
was the wife and mother Of the household,
an old woman with neat dress and i'ray
hair, who had stolen there for the 2 cret
solncs of a pipe. 1t would be hard to say
whether she or l was the most embarras sed
at my discovery of the habit she wished TO
remain hidden.
In that section of the country a consider
able number of elderly women smoked
their clay or corncob pipes, but not 4 sin
long ago considered nnladylike. Now it
seems as if tho practice were in danger of
revival by young women and girls, not in
the backwoods, but in New York, and even
in Boston, where l have come to know of n
public school teacher who smokes
of my personal acquaintance
both nice young women and one rather
priggish even-who have got to cigars, while
several are still in the cigarette stage. A
cigar dealer names 4 certain brand the
beau sexe'' to catch women's patronage.
1t is queer that this should happen just Mt
the time when 80 many young men are Civ
ing up the habit because it is Inconsistent
with athletic feats. On the whole, in spite
of the perverse Young women, the outlook
is very favorable for the abandonment of
the tobacco habit.
Too optimistic? Not a bit Of il. Who
takes snuff now? Fifty wears ago nearlv
every one did. Don't you keep your grand
mother's snuff box as n sacred RELIEF Fifty
years ago three men chewed tobacco where
one does now. Why cannot smoking, too,
be banished if athleticism and mstheticism
will moral and sanitary agencies of one
sort and another, Join hands against it?
Tobacco hasn't for a bundled years had so
weak a hold as now.
Anyhow if men think it right to smoke
and chew tobacco, why shouldn't women?
l hope they won't, but is there any valid
distinotion2

HEW YORK, AUG. 1.-THE CAM
~ paign in New York this fall is a Skin
TX mish for position. The presidential
campaign of 1892 will doubtless be settled
in this state, and neither party will leave
any effort untried to elect a governor. In a
sense, tho struggle is one of considerably
more than local Importance, for upon the
result and upon the degree of wisdom or
unwisdom the successful party may show at
Albany much will certainly depend.
r.. T. Flower remains, as l predicted long
ugo, the leading democrat. Poor Jones,
who has posed as a weak rival of Gov. Hill,
isn't and hasn't been thought of. Hill
himself is said by some to desire a renomina-
ton, yielding the senatorship to some one
whom he can trust, but that ia only a mat
ter for speculation. Whatever Gov. Hills
will may prove to be, it will be carried out.
There was a time, at the beginning of the
legislative session q year or SO ago, when it
seemed as If the democratic party had
taken the bit in it's teeth. the senators, in
particular, rejecting his advice in selecting
n caucus nominee for a president pro tenn.
But the session's warfare had not far pro-
cesded when the rebels were glad to seek
and follow again the advice of the shrewd
man in the executive mansion. At present
he is supreme in his party's councils.
Brooklyn furnishes a possible candidate
for either party. Mayor Chaplin, with the
prestige of a magnificent and unbroken
record of successes behind him, keen, cool,
ambitious, master of the wisdom of silence,
wants the nomination. OF his success there
seems very little possibility, but politics is
an uncertain game.
A more interesting personality is that of
Frederick A. Schroeder, of the same city,
prominently mentioned on the republican
side. Schroeder is a bluff and kindly old
gentleman, with a white mustache M
goates and a frank and cordial bearing.
Ho has been mayor of Brooklyn, and has
represented the city at Albany. Probably
no one could poll a larger vote for his party
than he in the city where he is best known.
mated. In the disastrous campaign when
Warner Miller fell outside the breastworks,
Mr.. Schroeder openly criticised the repub-
lican high license platform. He believes in
beer. For that very reason many regard
him as the strongest candidate possible.
while others. remembering him az one of
the disgruntled in 1888, strongly assert that
he would not do at all.
But Mr.. Platt has said that Schroeder
would be a strong candidate. This may,
and may not, mean something.
For my part, | expect to congratulate the
beaten party. If it is not too badly beaten.
Success this year will make those upon
whom it smiles over-confident in 1892. Be-
sides, the initiative of action will be thrust
upon them, the responsibility of mistakes,
the certainty of displeasing many; while
the beaten ones will hustle all the better
next year for the beating.
