the cup go back to its original hands, not
wthstandiug its forty-fvc years of adoption
seems sufficient to make it fixture ON the
American shores, than to have the future
generations believe that it was withheld
through any tcchnicality or undue advant-
age OF course, nothing which has trans
pircd forms the slightest ground for such a
presumption, but victory ON a foul is with
out glory and as unsatisfactory to the victor
as it is to the vanquished. 1t is fortunate,
however that before the decision ON the foul
and the fzzle of yesterday the Defender had
demonstrated in Il fair and equal race that
she could beat the Valllyrie by almost nine
minutes in a race of thirty miles in just the
kind of wind the British yachtsmen claimed
would be most favorable to their speedy
craft, This will serve to allay, to some extent,
the suspicion that may be aroused in after
years as to the result of the races. As to
Lord Dunraven it is quite clear that his
action in regard to Tuesdays race is not in
accord with the sentiment of the people in
England any more than it is with that of the
American people. The English press has de-
clarcd almost unanimously that they did not
wish credit for the race after protest had
been raised on a palpable foul, and had Dun
raven been actuated by the same sentiment
which unmstakably prevails on his native
shores he should have accepted the offer of
Mr.. Iselin to declare the result of last Tues
day off and 90 over the fifteen mile course
again. As the victory is forced upon De
fender she must accept it, and in doing so
she in no wise weakens the almost universal
belief that the boat that can take the Ameri-
can Cup from her does not float

Poison in the Water Cooler.

HARRISBURG, Sept. 13.-Luther Ripple

In a recent letter to the manufacturers Mr.
w. F. Benjamin, editor of the Spectator,
Rushford n. Y, says; 1T may be a pleas
ure to you to know the high esteem in which
Chamberlan's medicines are held by the
people of your own state, where they must
be best known. An aunt of mine, who re-
sides at Dexter, Iowa, was about to visit me
a few years since, and before leaving home
wrote me, asking if they were sold here,
stating if they were not she would bring a
quantity with her, as she did not like to be
without them" The medicines referred to
are Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, famous
for its cures of colds and Group Chamber
lain's Pain Balm for rheumatism, lame back
pains in the side and chest, and Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
for bowel complaints. These medicines have
been in constant use in Iowa for almost a
quarter of century The people have
learned that they are articles of great worth
and merit, and unequaled by any other.
They are for sale here by Gruhler Bros,
Druggists.

THE CUP FIZZLR.

The America Cup yacht races have excited
more interest in this town than any other
sporting event for years, with the possible
exception of the Corbett-N Mitchell encounter
in Florida, and it is only equalled by the
regret that is expressed over the unsatisfac-
tory results of the last two races. Although
imbedded in the heart of the coal region our
people take great interest in, and many are
well posted ON aquatic affairs, and in sporting
spirit are as Jealous, fair and patriotic as
those who are actually engaged in the hand
ling of the competing yachts. For that
reason they feel sorry that it has not been in
the power of the Cup Committee to give
Lord DunmvoI more latitude than the rules
allow They believe, in the language Of one
Of our citizens, that the Defender can beat
the sails of the yalkyrie in amy wind and ON
any course that can be selected,
While neither the Cup Committee nor the

unpleasant features ofthe series, IL is never.
