sion steamers shippers were doing their best
to get to o place where the finish could be seen.
The hull OF the oyster sloop Mona A. Rowland
OF Norwalk. which had been dismasted In the
gale. was seen rolling its rails under. but it
got only a glance from the spectators All eyes
were on the flyers driving down on the wings
OF the cyclone.
1t was a picture that thrilled the spectators
as none had done in these races for to the ap-
probation Of its beauty was added the feeling
OF uncertainty as to which would win and
hearty sympathy for the plucky crew who
were fighting to the last, though well-niRh
overwh elmed by their misfortunes 1t was
magnificent spectacle. but 1t was robbed Of Its
glory by this III luck.
With burst Of speed that was In itself glo-
rious the Vigilant crossed the line. Yacht
sharps and other spectators alike noted the
puff OF steam on the flagship that marked the
moment. and. with watches In hand. they eyed
the British cutter. The moments seemed to
count up slowly for a time allowance was to be
figured on. even II the cutter was astern.
Tho time did pass at last and the allowance
was gone. Tho patriots breathed freely. but be-
fore minute more was over the Valkyre was
safely across the line as well. She had been
beaten by only 40 seconds. She had made a
noble race. and 1t is only fair to say that but
for the loss Of the spinnaker she would have
been winner by a narrow margin.
RACING HoMEwARD FROM THE STORM.
The clouds Of the gathering storm had
logged in the sun and covered the gray OF tho
fog with drifting black clouds. The mists that
came from the whirling storm away to the
south were closing In about the fleet. The
waves rolled higher and shook their white
crests In the air. but there was no radiance in
their froth. for night was coming on while
yet the sun was far above the horizon.
The excursion feet had tarried to cheer
heartily the pluck OF the British skipper. but
once he was across tho line the Shippers with
hurried glances at the darkening sky. headed
away with one accord toward the welcom-
ing port.
Before they had passed the Hook. tho lamps
OF shipping and beacon began to fash. Heavy
squalls wet with rain drove the black throngs
under the sheltering decks The race was
over and the Yankee had won. 1t had been
the closest contest OF the series and so the
most exciting. but because Of the cutters i'll
luck 1t was the least satisfactory OF all.

THE GREAT REFORMERS, WORK.
HALEY. 1DAH'

The second session OF the Idaho
Legislature has come to an end-and
al iRnomlnious end it was.

them most prominently in mind when
thr song OF the tax collector is heard
in the land-when they are compelled
to yield money to the State that the
State does not need aud for which the
State did not ask.
On March 4th the House of Repre-.
se"tativ-s unanimously passed a bill
fixing the State tax levy for 1S93.94
at 65 cents upon each 500 worth of
property. The bill was the ioint

payer, whose interests they had sworn
to protect.
That the Senate would fail to pass
this bill (which reached that hody)
was possibility SO remote that it was
not, even for the sake OF ar !umen,,

gloated over tho i ed. When they
killed that vitally important bill these
great purifiers had just one object in
view, and that was to "spi,e" Cover

pledged duty, forgetting the interests
OF tho people aud the State, these
Spartan reformers, simply to annoy
the public servant WHO had refused to

opeaed in Janaary.
On the first day Of January will be
opened the Manchester England ship
canal. 1t is the largest artificial water
way in the world and though only thirty
five and half miles long will be immense
In its commercial Importance.
The canal when completed win have
minimum width Of l20 feet at the bottom
as compared with seventy-two feet on
the Suez canal, and will have a depth
Of water throughout Of twenty-siX feet.
The railway bridges passing over the
canal at various points are all raised 10
seventy-five feet above the normal water
level.
Three-fourths Of the cotton consumed
in England is consumed in the Manches-
ter district. and. in fact, within carting
distance OF the Manchester docks.
The cotton spinners are signing
''round robin" informing the growers and
shippers In America that they will give
preference in purchasing 10 cotton shipped
direct 70 Manchester, quite apart from
the saving in charges, which, as compared
with Liverpool, must be more than
one-siXteenth Of cent per pound.
Messrs. Pinkey q Sons. of Sunderland
ana Manchester, are the first 10 announce
that they will place steamers with
Messrs c. Stoddart & Co., of New
Orleans. TO load FOR Manchester direct,
the first steamer a 1850 tonner. leaving
on December 10th 70 be followed by
another about December Path. and there
will probably be other lines OF steamers

ports.
In a circular the manager Of the ship
canal says: II have recently received
representatives from the Californian
fruit growers who are anxious 10 save
the large transit cost via New. York by
shipping at a southern port. and L am
