He Seems to Have Faith in the Vigilant
and Explains Some Defects.
Nat Herreshoff, the designer of the
Nigilant, who has been abroad with the
Goulds, preparing and sailing Oh the
Tobin bronze boat in the races in Scotch
waters, when asked what was the matter
with the Vigilant said:
"Oh, she is all right, and from now on,
i'll anything like a breeze, will win the
majority of the races.
You see,' he said, 1.-The VigiIant was
built for the specific purpose of defending
the Americas cup. This she accom-
plished. Now Mr.. Gould has bought her
and has taken her to the other side and
is sailing her over a lot of inside courses
with Il lot of turns, where she is ut Il
great disadvantage, not only in the mat
ter of crews, out the way the sails are
handled. But by this l don't mean to
say she is not handled well, for she is.
and the crew is improving all the while"
When asked if the English courses
were anything like Long Island sound, he
threw both hands up III the air and eX-
claimed:
Il wish to heaven they were; she would
be able to do something then
In speaking of the Nigjlant's first races,
Mr.. HeTreshOff said:
The boat was not in trim and her
sails were III bad shape. You see, Mr.
Gould naturally wanted TO race her as
soon as her sails were bent, and in dddi-
ton to that he did not wish to disappoint
the people who had come to see her race.
In reality. the boat was in no condition to
race, and under the circumstances, with
all the worst of the luck, | think she made
remarkably good showing, as whenever
there WAS any truth in the breeze she
more than held her own"
In speaking of the Britannia, he said
hS, Il, II
kyrie, and. as far as he was able to
judge. he did not think her any faster
than the Dunraven boat. When asked If
he thought the Satanita. with her big
water-line length, would beat the Eigilant
in blow. he said:
NO: | think the Vigilant viii beat her
in almost any weather. just as the Val
kyrie and Britannia have
When asked if the Vigilant had had
any experience yet with what was known
as the channel sea, he said:
NO; up to the time left the water
was as smooth as that is now" pointing
to the placid water of the bay.
When asked if it were true that Messrs
Lapthorne d Ratsey had refused TO ac-
cept an order for new suit of sails for
the Eigilant, he replied:
Absolutely true In a spirit of patri-
otism they declined either to make a set
for use in England or here 1t was just
with the Vigilant preferred to see the
craft win with American duck
When asked if the Britannia skipper
had not outmaneuvered the Vigilant
little in her races. he said:
of course. the Britannia, with her
splendidly-drilled crew, in close quarters
got little advantage at times through
quicker handling of sails. but. on the
whole, I don't know as they gained very
much by their jockeying excepting in one
race in narrow channel when they got
on our weather bow and held us there

A SaImOn's Nest.

The veXed question, to many, as to
how, when and where salmon spawn and
rear their young, and at what size and
time the young return to salt water, is
puzzling some old heads. Not many
sportsmen are privileged to witness the

had the privilege of beholding recently
a salmon'h nest if it might be so called.
A shovel hld been forced into the bottom
of a creek and several shovelfuls of gravel
thrown out, at a point in the Sumas river
near the city of that name. The gravel
bed in question was about a foot below
the surface of the water, and the gravel
thrown out had left a hole in the bed of
the creek nearly a foot deep. Before an
other shoyelful of it could be removed a
motion of very minute shining objects
in the hole was observed. Upon close in
spection these were found to be young
salmon and a great amount of salmon
eggs, Il lot still unmatched. There were
hundreds of these tiny fish, and they were
vigorous and healthy and amply able to
care for themselves. The gravel was at
once replaced over them and they were
left undisturbed-Puget Sound Sports

1t gives an impressive idea of what
subterranean London is fast becoming to
learn that on emerging from the river
the new City and Waterloo line will,
in its passage up Queen Victoria street,
run for part of the way under the low
along beneath the district underground
railway. So that at this point in the city
we shall have, first, a busy main thor
oughfare, below that steam railway,
then huge metropolitan sewer, then an
electric railway, reaching its terminus at
a depth OF about siXty-three feet below
the streets, and here it will communicate
with another line-the Central London

HOW 1T Is IN LIFE.

A rooster flies up on the fence,
Just hear him crow!
His satisfaction is immense,
His self-pOsseSSion is intense;
His luSty lungs give evidence
That this is SO.
Another rooster sees him there
And hears him crow;
With tapping wings he cleaves the air,
The fence-tOp is too small to share,
And so they fight, and scratch, and tear,
Till down they go.
So tbs in life. When any man
Gets eminent,
Some jealous rival tries to plan
Some way to down him if he can;
And if he just upscts the pan,
He feels content.

To Improve Coin Designs.

The opinion is spreading that Uncle
Sam could make his money from more
artistic designs. Encouraged by the
change in public sentiment the National
Sculpture society has decided to offer two
prizes Of $500 and 5000 respectively for
the best two sets of designs in plaster
for the silver dollar of the United States
These designs, which are to be made
under the requirements of the law, VIII
be exhibited at the next exhibition of the
society, which will be held III New York
early in 1895. The idea, says the New
York World, is that competing artists
shall submit two designs, one for the OBJ
verse and the other for the reverse of the
dollar. The National Sculpture society IL
its invitation to artists TO compete lays
stress upon the patriotic points involved
in the matter

BY This Impeaohment Has Begun.

LONDON, Nov. 28.-According to the
dispatches from Shanghai a sensation
was caused by memorial to the throne
signed by over 120 high officials, inn
peaching Ii Hung Chang and charging
him with corruption, peculation and de-
ception. The memorial also says Ii
Hung Chang rejoiced at the Japanese
victories, and prevented the Chinese
achieving success. He is said to have
represented that China was prepared
for war when he knew the contrary was
the case. Ii Hung Chang is also said
to be implicated with Prince Kung, the
uncle and president of the admiralty,
who was recently appointed dictator,
and with Taptai WI and the com mander
of the Chinese forces at Port Arthur,
these officials being accused of high
treason and of selling state secrets and
war material to the enemy. They were
further charged with investing money in
Japan, harboring treasonable designs
against the Chinese empire, and con-
spring to procure the overthrow of
China. The memorial demands the
instant punishment and dismissal of all
concerned in the conspiracy.

FOUND by Que Japanese.

LONDON, Nov. 28.--The Toxic cores
pondent to the Central News telegraphss
The Japanese have found at Port Ar-
thur chart which has enabled them to
locate exactly and control all the mines
in the harbor. Novem Der 10th, previous
to the storming of the forts, the Japan
ese placed 100 siege and field guns in a
well-chosen position and rained shot
and shell upon the Chinese entrench-
ments. This bombardment made pos
sible the rapid success of the assault. 3
The Times correspondent IN Chez Eco
says Admiral Freemantle and fifty Brit
ish officers landed at Port Arthur No
vember 25th. Kung, taotai of Port Ar
thur, brother of the Chinese minister to
England, has gone to Tien Tsin. The
reports OF atrocities on both sides are
confirmed The Japanese, after finding
the mutilated bodies of several comrades,
gave no quarter, there being an indis-
criminate massacre. Several Chinese
soldiers and some tradesmen, who tried
to escape by sea, were followed by tor
pedo boats and shot.
A Shanghai dispatch says that the
Japanese torpedo boats sank more than
twenty junks loaded with fugitives from
Port Arthur.

China ON Her Knees.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 28.-China has sue
cumbed to the inevitable and has sued
for peace. Her proposals will be pre-
sented to Japan through the United
States ministers at Peking and Toxic,
thus promising termination of the war,
as the result, in part at least, of the ex-
ercise of. the good Offices of the United
States. 1t is not possible at this time to
learn the terms of China's proposition,
as handed to Minister DENLY, but it is
probable it provides for but two conces-
sions-a money indemnity and a reliu-
quishment of the suzerainty over Corea.
It is improbable that the first tender
will be accepted by Japan, as such over
lures are rarely accepted, but this prop
osifiou Wilfopen the way to counter
offer of terms by Japan, through Min
lister Dun, and the negotiations, if sue
cessful, and if they follow the usual
course, will lead to truce, under proper
guarantee, or a preliminary agreement
to cease hostilities, and, finally, to the
Esignature to definite treaty of peace.
just how this proposition will be brought
about is not known yet. 1t is probable,
however, that as the matter is IN the
hands of the American ministers in
China and japan. the visit of Mr.. Det-
ring, commissioner of maritime affairs
at Tien-Tsin, to Japan, is to be directly
connected with the peace negotiations,
as has been supposed.

Both Sides are to Blame.

LONDON, Nov. 29.-The reported Jap
anese atrocities at Port Arthur are con-
frmed from various sources, but it is
believed they were due to continued at
rocities upon the part of the Chinese.
A letter to the Times from Toxic, dated
October IA, says the Chinese DO not take
prisoners. From the dead and wounded
vanquished they shear off the heads and
string them together with rope passed
through the mouth and the gullet. The
Japanese have seen these CHASTITY REM
nants of their comrades. A barrel full
of mutilated remains were found by the
Japanese after the battle of Ping Yang.

Would Not Receive Detring.

LONDON, Nov. 2S.-A dispatch to the
Central News from Toxic says that Com
missioner Detring and his suite sailed
for Tien-Tsin today. Count Ito, the
Japanese prime minister, declined to re-
ceive the commissioner, stating that he
would only receive an envoy who had
been directly appointed by the Chinese
government at Peking, and would hold
no communication with the viceroy's
messenger.
NEW York, Nov. 2s.-The Herald's
special from Shanghai this morning says:
''The oyertures for peace made by Mr..
Detring, on behalf of China, to Japan,
have been totally rejected, as Mr.. Det-
ring had no credential from Peking
This fact confirms the belief that he only
went to Japan in order to pave the way
for Viceroy Ii Hung Chang, who is now
execrated everywhere in China. Det-
ring bore letter from Ii Hung Chang
to the mikado. The failure of Mr.. Det-
rings mission confirms the belief in the
downfall of Ii Hung Chang. The Japan
ese will most likely refuse to desist from
the war until Peking is reached.
