 CAPTAIN BARR WILL RETURN. He VIII Leave the Navahoe and the
 Volunteers Captain Has Keen
 Called For-Version of the Row on
 the Eavahoe.
 LONDON, Aug. 14.-The Sportsman says that Captain Barr of the Navahoe will return to the United States. It is re ported that the captain of the Volunteer has been cabled for. In the meantime she will be commanded by Captain Draper, who has piloted the Navahoe in all her races in England, and who was formerly skipper of the Valkyrie.
 According to the Sportsmau, the recent TOW aboard the Navahoe occurred in this way: The men were sitting at the after rail when an order was given which was obeyed very slowly. The last man to rise, said to be the smartest of the crew, was re- monstrsted with by-one of the gentlemen aboard the yacht. The seaman spoke back and long altercation ensued, resulting in the gentlemsn's striking the seaman in the face and cutting 1t open.
 The bostswsin was ordered to put the man below, but was reluctant to carry out the order. Eventually he persuaded the man to go, but the seaman refused to sc cept an apology, and declared his intention to prosecute him. Ultimately the gentle man who struck the seaman settled the matter by paying the man six months salary, amounting to gro, and his passage to America. The man will sail for hom. In 6 day or two.

CROSSED IN LOVE.
A Holland Girl Shoots Herself Be- r cause Her Parents Objected to Her

A Holland Girl Shoots Herself Be- cause Her Parents Objected to Her Lover-She Will Probably Die.
 HOLLAND, Aug. 13. - The town was thrown into a state of excitement, such as
 it has not experienced for some time, yes
 ternoon when 1t was reported that Miss
 Jennie l.. Loomis, the sixteen-yesr. old
 daughter of B. F. Loomis of Baltimore,
 Md, had attempted to end her life by
 shooting, and will probably die. The
 young lady, who is very pretty, is one of
 the best known summer residents of the
 town, and the report caused great surprise.
 The story proved to be well founded.
 Miss Loomis has for some time entertained sentiment toward Everett Bunnell, a Hartford young man, but little older than herself, which her parents sought to dis courage, and it was this that led to the shooting. The families of the young people have been intimate for some years and frequently visited each other. It was in this way that the young people became acquainted, and of late their friendship has ripened into love. They have correspond ed constantly and this Miss Loomis' par ents tried to discourage. Yesterday her father talked with her in the yard and ohided her about the affair. She became angry and ran into the house. She went to her fathers room, where she found an oldfashfoned 22 calible revolver and plsc- ing the muzzle against her breast she fired. When her father rushed into the house he found her lying on the floor in 8 pool of blood. Dr, Simmons of this town and Dr, StoOrs were hurrfedly summoned hut they could not find the bullet. It is doubtful if the young lady recovers, al, though she is resting quietly this evening. MT. Loomis, who is very wealthy, owns a handsome residence here and has made his summer home here for many years. The girl has been Respondent for several days over the objections of her father. It is said that there is tendency of the family toward insanity, Mrs. Loomis being at present an inmate of an asylum. MT. Loomis' objections to the match were mainly because Bunnell has no means of support and he does not think he could care for his daughter.
