CAPTAIN F.. R. COOKIE. the legislature, which is this year to choose , United States senators, 5 members of the su- preme court, 100 county judges and all the circuit judges in the state.
 Speculation about who will secure the United States senatorship is indulged in all over the state, and discussion waxes warm over the question whether legisla- tive nominees are favorable to one or the other of the aspirants for the toga. The most prominent candidates for the senatorship are ex-Governor FitZhugh Lee, Governor Mckinney, Thomas Mar tin of Albemarle and General Eppa Hun ton, who is at present serving in the senate by appointment of the governor to fill the place of Senator Barbour, who died last year. One of the new senators will be elected to fill out Barbour's term, which expires March 3. 1895.
 As to the personality of the candidates for the governorship little need be said. Captain Edmund Randolph Cooke of Cumberland. the POpulist nominee, is connected with some of the most promi- nent families in the state. He is about 55 years of age and has extensive plan tations in Cumberland. He was gradu- ated from the University of Virginia just before the war and entered the Confed- crate army as a private, achieving the rank of captain by promotion for meri- torious service. Colonel O'Ferrall, the Democratic nominee. has reputation in Virginia and beyond the states borders for his long service in congress, while Colonel J. R. Miller, the Prohibition candidate, is well enough known not to need any introduction to those who will give him their suffrages.

\ great feet came down after
them. excursion boats and tugs
and yachts. and the flagship
May was there ready to give the
preparatory and starting signals.
and to take the official time OF
the yachts.
Tie wind was blowing fair
sailing breeze from southwest to
south. and rather heavy swell
was running in from direction
somewhat more TO the eastward,
which was broken on It's surface
BY the wind.
The two yachts sailed about
watching each other carefully.
the yalkyrie keeping closer
to the starting line as she
run than the yigilant, and both
boats having up their jibs only
for headsail.
The wind was increasing and
they both had up their inter
mediate club topsails Not their
largest ones. for no one new how
hard it was going to blow, and
both boats wanted to hold on to
the club topsails as long as they
could.
The May hoisted signals show
ing the course, and ten minutes
before the starting time, 1923,
fred the preparatory gun. The
signals showed that the face was
to be sailed over triangular
course and the first leg was to be
southwest by southwest by south
the second east one-half south
and the third northwest, one-half
west.
This was intended to give ten
miles of windward work, ten OF
reaching and ten of running. but
as is usual in sailing triangular
course it did not do so, for the
second and third legs were both
reaches
The wind had probably hauled
a little more to the westward, or
the compasses were not accurate.
When the starting signal was
given at 11:25, the two yachts
were close together, neither of
them having got far away from
the other.
In all their sailing about wait
ing for the signal the yalkyrie
was a little closer to the line, but
the Vigilant was to the windward.
BY both had set their jibs, and
all their sails were drawing. The
two boats made for the line on a
starboard tack. the yalkyrie 60
ing faster than the Vigilant. The
yalkyrie passed over first. The
Vigilant was two seconds behind
her.
The sails of both boats were
drawing for every pound they
were worth and it was hard to
say which suit of sails set best.
At first it seemed as If those OF
the Valkyrie were doing better
work. but as one gazed it could
be seen that it was not so and the
sails Of the American boat were
j drawing better.
The Nalkyrie gained. There
was no doubt of it She seemed
to have the speed of all the winds
in her and taking the seas on her
fall bows. she went down toward
the dim outlines of the Jersey
coast 1t looked bad for the
Yankee boat. but ii was not. As
the yalkyrie began to draw ahead
new speed seemed to come into
the yigilani and rushing forward
| she oyerhanled her.

THE GREAT YACHT RACE

over the seas. the great Yigilant
to-day won the second of the
series of races for the America
cup.
1t was a great and glorious
victory and when the race was
finished there was no shadow
upon the waves OF an immediate
parting between America and the
American cup.
From start to snish. in her
own wind. and in the sort OF sea
which she ought to love. the
Yalkyrie was SO badly beaten by
the great boat from Bristol that
IT occasioned feeling OF sorrow,
almost, among American yachts
men that the boat of Lord Dun
raven should have come so far
and have Jared so poorly.
1t was defeat such as has
seldom been seen in an inter
national race. and it was the
defeat of boat which came over
with a record and reputation
such as no other boat sent after
the trophy won in 1851 has had.
1t was victory as complete
and as decisive as could possibly
be won. There were no fukes
or flaws of the wind, no bother
ing excursion boats and no acct
dents of any kind.
On every point of sailing the
Vigilant proved herself to be the
better boat, and when she proved
herself a better boat than the
Valkyrie she proved herself to be
the feetest boat that was ever
launched.
The best boats of England
have been defeated by the VAL
kyrie, and where in the world,
outside of America, can a yacht
be found to sail successfully
against the best of the Royal
squadronl But, to-day. when
with oil her sails drawing, with
her powerful hull conquering
and overcoming the waters until
they were her slaves, and every
wave that rolled only served to
bear her onward. the great white
sloop swept across the finish line
while the Valkyrie was hull
down astern.
The race of Saturday dispelled
the fears that American yachts
men have had for the pro-
wess of the British boat. The
race to-day settled the matter,
and the only thing that Amer
lean yachtsmen complain of is
their own foolishness in being
scared by the yalkyrie.
But that is an old story.
There is not yacht which has
come a-seeking for the America $
cup but what yschtmen have had
certain fears here. They have
seen her good points where others
have not. and it is one of the
first qualities of the yachtsman
as well as of the soldier not 10
undervalue the strength OF a
adversary.
But all the waves that roll on
Sandy Hook, and all the winds
that blow from the fruitless
fields of the sea sang tonight
the story of the glory of the VIC
torious Vigilant- Deep as the
waves that roll was the meaning
of her victory. and far as the
breeze can bear ii viii spread her
fame. She is the yigilant. and
eternal vigilance is the price of
liberty.

ahead and every minute increas
ed her speed
They came on the starboard
tack again at nearly the same
time. Now the gain Of the yigi-
/. liant vas more than ever percepti-
bic. She seemed to &c leaving
her antagonist behind in a man
ner which left little doubt as to
the result of the race.
The valkyrie saw it and split
tscks VIII the vigilant. Going
OF the port tack again sue held
that tack for little time only.
and then came on the starboard
tack.
They were approaching the
mark now. and all the time the
yigilant had been eating ont to
windward of the Valkyrie.
The Valkyrie was sailing as
close to the wind as she could,
but the Vigilant held the wind
ward position better than her
antagonist. So they sprang to-
ward the first mark and every
minute increased the lead of the
yigilant
When the American boat
rounded the race was already won
and the Valkyrie was as lonely
and forsaken as were under
similar circumstances and in like
weather the yachts that last
summer contended against the
Vigilant in the races off New
port.
The Vigilant rounded the first
mark 4 minutes and 40 seconds
ahead. The wind was blowing
fifteen miles an hour and steadily
increasing. There was a great
gap of sun-lit and wind tossed
waters between the two boats,
for the Valkyrie had been badly
beaten in windward work,
and the America cup was safe.
The race was won, and every
minute only served to increase
the victory of the Vigilant.
After rounding the first mark
the yachts took in their baby
iip-topsails and set bigger ones.
They were not full-grown bal
looms, but were big ones. The
Vigilant eased her sheets and
went swift as greyhounds run
when the leash is slipped. The
Yslkyrie was sailed closer and
lost steadily all the time.
The seas were ruffied and
sparkling and dancing, and far
away before the British cham
pion plunged the white sloop
of America. The Vigilant was
so far ahead before one-half
of the distance from the frst to
the second mark was covered
that all the feet OF boats of OBJ
servation had left the Valkyrie
and were iingling up their bell
to catch the vigilant.
The Vigilant took in her big
jib topsail and set smaller one.
The valkyrie did the same. As
the second mark was reached
the jib topsail of the Vigilant
came in. She had on balloon
staysail. She rounded the Sc
cond mark iibing her boom over
to port and stretched away for
the finish. going as never boat
under similar conditions of wind
and weather went before.
Under her bows white foam
was shining in the sunlight, and
clean against the sky her sails
| of beauty rose. There was swift
