The Efrut Tnrn

Nearing the first turning point II was a
pretty race between the Jubilee ana Visi-
liant Colonia still held her position astern
and to leeward. Both the Jubilee ana yigi-
liant were ahead OF the Pilgrim as to dis
tance. but the Pilgrim had the best posi-
ton, being we'll down to windward.
At o'clock the Pilgrim began to sag or
to leeward. while at the same time the
Jubilee and Vigilant crept closer up to the
Pilgrim. The Jubilee and vigilant were
having luffing match, In which the Jubi-
lee had the better Of it.
The Jubilee came about for the mark on
the port tack at 1:o7: vigilant came about
at 1;0. As, and Colonia at 1;o7:55
The Pilgrim luffed up and bore away for
the mark about the same time as the
Jubilee
The yachts turned the buoys as follows:
Vigilant, los: Pilgrim. 1:0s:30; Jubilee, j ~;
Colonia, 1l0:80.
The yachts were timed as they passed a
given line. as follows: vigilant. 1 :35; Jubi-
lee. 1:37: Pilgrim. 1:3s; Colonia, la.
After rounding the first mark the yachts
stood off on the second leg, their course
being about southwest by west. The Pill
grim showed on the first leg that she can
not point any way as near as well as the
other boats. At 1:45 the vigilant was well
In the lead. Jubilee and Pilgrim were sail
ing well together. but Pilgrim was in the
lead. Unless the Colonia does phenomenal
work on the run home, which will be almost
directly before the wind she will stand no
possible chance OF winning.
At o'clock the Vigilant was minutes
and Is seconds ahead of the Jubilee and
holding her owr without trouble.
On the Homestretch.
The Vigilant rounded the second mark at
2:14:20 Her mainsail was doomed out on
the starboard side and her spinnaker was
set to port. The Jubilee rounded at ZIG: 40.
She was slow in breaking out her spinnaker
to port.
Pilgrim rounded the second buoy at
2:20::o9 and the Colonia at 2:2I IL The PHI
grim broke out her spinnaker in better
shape than the others. but had trouble In
sheeting II home.
The racers were now booming home
ward with the Vigilant stin holding her
own. 1t looked. however. as though the
Jubilee would win, as On corrected time the
Jubilee was four seconds ahead

BRAZIL'S REVOLUTION.
Reports Of Trouble in That Country Con-
frmed Today.
American Interests to BE Protected by
BOmbar rdment-U. s. Minister.

The reports OF a political crisis in Brazil
were confirmed at the State Department to-
day ~ the receipt of a cable message from
Mr.. Thompson, the new United States min
lister to Brazil, saying that preparations
have been made for the bombardmant Of
Rio de Janeiro. and in anticipation Of such
an event martial law has been declared in
the Brazilian capital AS stated in yester-
days Star, arrangements have been made
for prompt increase of our naval strength
in Brazilian waters. Orders have been sent
to Capt Ferry. commanding the cruiser
Newark, now fitting out at Norfolk for
service as flagship Of the South Atlantic
station, to expedite his prepa rations for
departure. and to set sail for Rio with as
little delay as possible The Newark was
scheduled to sail about the Goth instant,
but under the new orders she will probably
leave Norfolk on her long southern cruise
early next week.
Owing to the great distance to be ira
versed and the usual brevity Of revolutions
an southern countries. 1t is almost certain
that the present troubles will be settled
one way or the other long before the
Newark reaches the scene. She will get
there In time, however, to render good SER
vice in the protection of American interests
and to secure reparatfon for damages that
may have been caused in the interval She
will be ordered to cooperate with other
navies in protecting foreign interests in
Brazil.
1t is believed at the Navy Department
that the cruiser Charleston, the vessel made
prominent by her long chase of the Chilean
transport 1tata. arrived at Rio today. She
Is due In Brazilian waters from Barbados,
and while 1t is not unlikely that she may
have continued on to Montevideo, the
chances and probabilities are that she will
first touch at Rio for coal. In that event
orders will be sent to her to remain at the
Brazilian capital until the present troubles
are over. or until she is relieved by the
Newark. There is more use for the Charles
ton at Brazil than on the Pacific station to
which she is bound.

that the accused were in liquor, and mere

LONDON. Sept. s.-The tedious discus
sion Of the supply bill in the house OF COM
MONS owing to the obstruction led by Nr.
Chamberlain, is likely to be considerablr
curtailed by the cholera scare. which. how
ever, is hardly justified by the cfrcuu,.
stances. The case of the house OF com
mons charwoman is nowise convincinglT
proved to be Asiatic cholera. Experts are
still doubtful about IL. The woman had
been long subject to diarrhoea. and last
Sunday she ate heartily of indigestible food.
The case was more probably acute English
cholera. The other cases in London are
declared to be choleraic diarrhoea, and no
connection, direct or indirect. with the
cholera infected district has been traced.
In Grimsby and Hull. too. while numerous
have been no further cases of true cholera.
and the indications generally throughout
Europe are that the epidemic is subsiding
under the influence OF the approaching cold
weather. and the adoption of stringent pre-
cautionary measures.

AhInk0 r,
CO1Onna is Not.
At meeting Of the Virginia Democra tic
Association at it's hall, $40 PENNSYLVANIA
avenue, last evening resolution introduced
by Mr.. Joseph Settle was adopted after
quite a spirited discussion requesting the
Secretary Of the Treasury to remove from
office Mr.. B. A. Colonna, the assistant in
charge Of the coast and geodetic survey
office. The resolution recites that Mr.
Colonna was appointed about 1870 TO a po-
sition in the office through republican IN
fuence: that he declared himself to be
republican until 1885, when upon the re-
moval of Superintendent Hilgard he pro-
claimed himself a democrat, and was ap-
pointed assistant in charge of the Office at
alleged that when Mr.. Harrison was elect
ed Mr.. Colonna began to hedge and take
the part of the republicans and to aid in
the removal of democrats. In view of
these facts the resolution requested the
Secretary to remove Mr.. Colonna and Gp-
point good democrat.
The resolution occasiOned considerabl BILE
debate. Mr.. E. B. Wyatt and Mr. r. N.

Tended Maj. Colonna, vouching for his
democracy. The resolution was adopted by
vote of AZ to 8. and a committee ap-
pointed to present the resolution to Secre-
tary Carlisle.
The association then elected officers as
follows: President, II. l.. Biscoe; first vice

Mai. Co1Onna's Statement.
Mai. Colonna said today that he would
pay no attention whatever to the resolu-
ton, and would not even make an answer
to anything contained therein. His posi-
ton, he said, in the survey is not polit-
ical one The duties of it are scientific, and
he does not consider that the tenure OF
office is dependent upon politics.

QUEER REASON FOR DISMISSAL.
One of MIR. Mans6eld's Company Pro-
nOunced Words Differently.

-
One of MIR. Mansfield's Company Pro-
nOunced Words Differently.
Miss Agnes Lane pretty little actress,
has thrown up her part and her engagement
with Richard Mansfield's company, and for
a rather curious reason, says a New York
special 1t was all about the pronunciation
of phrase, and Mr.. Mansfield's determina-
tion to eliminate all the Americanisms from
the rehearsal. Miss Lane, never having WIS.,
tied London, was unable to correctly initiate
the English method of pronouncing the
phrase mot at ALL" She pronounced the
phrase as she had been taught to do so at
school. but this didn't please Mr. Mansfield
at all. Il have noted down." said he, at
rehearsal, that you pronounced the word
martyr as 'marter, which Is vilainous.
1t should be mateer' In the word hundred
you recognize the letter r. You should say
'hunded.' Do not let this occur again"
After Mr.. Mansfield had impaired little
more advice of the same kind, Miss Lane
threw up her engagement. When the actor
found himself unable to get an actress to
play the part he threw up his hands and
shouted: Ladies and gentlemen, / sail for
Europe Saturday. Consider that have dis
missed you all
Those who knew Mr.. Mansfeld's peculiar
tiles of temper appeared. of course PROMPTLY

said to them about their designations Miss
Lane did not return.
Mr.. Mansfield is the author Of a new word

professional people may be companies. but
Mr.. Mansfeld's is an Association of artists"

THE SOLDIERS HOME.
Gen. Stanley's Selection as Governor Gen
eral Approved
Brief Sketch OF His Distinguished
Services In the Army-He is Well
Known in This City.

The Star has all along predicted that Brig.
Gen. David 8. Stanley would succeed the
late Gen. kelton as governor Of the Soldiers
lively in yesterdays Star Of his appointment
to that of11ce consequently caused no spe-
cial surprise There was considerable COM
petition among army officers for this
detail. regarded as one Of the most desirable
In the service. and the difficulty of making
q selection caused much delay in the settle
ment Of the question. Now that the ap-
pointment has been made. no one will ques-
ton Its wisdom and propriety. Gen. Stanley
has an excellent record and to that fact,
as well as to his personal acquaintance with
the President and the Secretary of War,
may his preferment be properly ascribed.
He was prominent candidate for the office
at the time of Gen. Kelton's selection and
would then have received the appointment
but for the fact that certain personal con-
siderations swayed the scales In Gen.
Kelton's favor.
Gen. stanley's Record.
The new governor graduated from the
Military Academy in 1852. and was pro-
NOTED to a captaincy in 1861. He partici-
pated in several Indian engagements. no.
tably that with the Cheyennes at Solo
mons Fork. and that with the Comanches
near Fort Arbuckle At the outbreak Of the
civil war he was offered an important COM
mand in the confederate army, but he
would not take it and loyalty cast his lot
dered good service in the engagements at
Independence, Forsyth, Dug Springs.
Wilson's Creek. Rolla and other places. In
September, 1861, he was made a brigadier
general of volunteers. and participated in
the skirmishes near Corinth and at Farm
ington. He had an active part in the At
lanta campaign, and commanded the
fourth army corps at the battle of Jones'
boro'. In the fall of 1862 Gen. Stanley sue
ceeded to the command of the Army Of the
Cumberland. He took a leading part in the
wounded at Franklin. where he was en-
gagged in desperate hand-to-hand con-
fict. Notwithstanding the severity Of his
wounds, he continued on the field until long e
after dark. and succeeded in regafning the
part Of his line which the enemy had
broken.
After the War.
After lying in the hospital for some months
the general rejoined his command, and at
the close Of the war took 1t to Texas. He
was then appointed colonel of the twenty
second infantry. and a greater part Of the
time prior to 1874 he spent in Dakota. In
1882 he was ordered to Santa Fe, N. Mex,
and placed in command Of the district Of
New Mexico. While stationed there he sue
cessfully quelled disturbances among the
Navajos, Utes and Jicarillas without blood
shed.
In March. 1884. he received his commits
army and was placed in command Of the
departm ment of Texas, which he retained
up to the time of his retirement a few
years ago. Gen. Stanley Is well known in
this city and his return here to permanen
duty Is subject Of general congratulation.
