THE USUAL ENGLISH FAIR PLAY.

While the Englishmen are trying to
get back the Queens Cup brought to
this country SO many years ago by the
gallant America, to the dismay and
disgust OF Her Majesty and her loyal
subjects. another Queens Cup has been
on the point OF being transferred to the
United States by that ambitious ANA
teur yachtsman. Howard Gould. In
deed, there is but little question that
Mr.. Goulds saucy Niagara did actually
win yesterdays Queens Cup In the
Munster Yacht Club race over a nifty
mile course and was jockeyed out of the
prize.
In the first place. when 1t was seen
that the Niagara was bound to beat the
Prince of Wales's Britannia. the course
was shortened so as to save time allow
ance. Even then. fair play. the Niagara
was notoriously the winner. But the
Committee. after much hesitation and
much measuring and rcmeasuring, took
the cup from Mr.. Gould and gave it to
the Prince of Wales.
This is a specimen Of British fair play,
1t shows what American yachtsmen
might expect II Valkyrie III. should
succeed In carrying back the America s
Cup. Among English sporting men the
rule is, do the foreigner at all hazards
every time"

THE JoLLrEs, SOME TRADES AND GOV.
MORTON

When Gov. Morton was trotted out as
candidate for the Republican nomina-
ton for the Presidency a few days ago,
1" The Evening World " felt forced to
call his attention to the fact that mil
lionaire candidates who are well jolled
before are generally soon traded at con-
ventions. Gen. Alger, OF Michigan, is a
rich gentleman who could write books
on jollies and trades. or course he will
not do so, because he is probably even
now thinking OF plans and schemes to
get another jolly and keep 1t safe from
the jaws of trade in the convention
hall.
Gov. Morton may perhaps also remem-
Der certain contest at Albany for the
United States Senate. 1t was said at
the time that money was SO common
up there that Republican members of
the Legislature used to pack grecnbac ks
in bales to send to their rural homes.
Gov. Morton, not then Governor. was
given a yard wide broad grin jolly by a
political leader named Plat that seemed
made only to land him In Washington
Yet at n fatal moment a trade, or n
bargain, or a dicker was looscd from its
leash by Mr.. Plat. the jolly went in n
tiffy and another man was known as
Senator.
Now the moral OF these "reminiscences
Is this-Beware all jollies, especially the
midsummer jolly, and oh, above and be-
yond all, the n. c. Plat jolly--for it is
vain thing, fun OF wind and signiiicth
nothing.

BEAT TIE ARMY OUT OF SIGHT.

1t is not surprising that a "World"
correspondent should beat the United
States Army. 1.-THE Worlds" special
representatives sent out to Jackson's
Hole from New York to let the people
know the exact condition Of affairs at
that far-away spot are already at their
post and have sent back their first full
and very interesting report, while the
United States troops. who were all the
time in the near neighborhood. are still
making their way slowly towards the
scene OF supposed danger.
The FIRST trustworthy Information,
therefore. comes as usual from "The
World" All is quiet at Jackson's Hole.
No one has been killed as yet, except
the Indian hunters who were trying
10 escape arrest. Settlers are moving
in instead of moving out. OF course
preparations are being made and a
sharp lookout kept for danger.
The United States troops can now
move as slowly as they please The
public will BE- certain to know the truth
now that THE Worlds" special cor
respondents are on the spot, as they
always are when Information is needed
by whatever danger it's procurement
may be attended.

II was proper and necessary to put

extent as to become on several accounts
an intolcrable nuisance and to seriously

Our OverwOrLcd Car Horses,

To the Editor:
In behalf OF the poor, overworked street-car
horses cannot something be done in these trying
days OF extreme heat? have often felt disgusted
that women show the least feeling in regard to
these poor creatures Could 1t not be suggested
through your valuable paper how much both horse
and man might be saved by a little consideration
and unse'dshness on the part of women. The get
ting on car when 1t stops at street above or
below ones destination is not very much to do
to save the strain 0, starting so often as when at
