POLO AND FOOTBALL.
Providence is Fourth in the League
Race.

For the past week Providence has been
falling down the ladder Of percentage in
a way to dishearten the local crapks, and
again last evening another tumble was
INDUCED in a. Fail River, where Cotter's
men defeated the Grays @ TO 3. The
game was spirited throughout and was
won by the Reds due TO the failure of the
Grays' backs being unable to block the
rushers.
Parsons, Wodtke and Cotter played an
ideal forward game in which plenty of
cool headed team work and snappy play
abounded, and it was greatly due TO Get
ter's "fesding" of the ball 10 the rushers
that the victory resulted as il did.

SUPREME MOMENT IN A LAUNCH.
II Comes When the Vessel First Gets Into
the Water.

That launch is a matter OF mathemat.
ics. as we'll as of great skill and labor, is
shown by tho fact that the man OF science
who has tho matter in charge always
makes set of calculations showing the
strain OF the ship and it5 precise condition
at practically every foot Of the journey
down the ways. If boat should get in
the way, or If Ii should take an unusual
length of time TO knock out tho kee!
blocks or IL any one of half q dozen things
should cause serious delay, the scientific
man knows just how long he can wait and
Just how far the limit of safety extends.
There is always ono supreme moment
In launch, and it is at time that escapes
the average spectator. Ii is when the YES
sci gets fairly well into the water. This is
when an important factor known as the
moment of buoyancy" comes into play.
III you can imagine a vessel sliding down
an incline without any water into which
TO drop, you can see that the vessel would
tip down suddenly at the end which has
left the ways aud would rise at tho end
still on tho incline. But really in success
full launches the stern of the vessel is grad
ually lifted mp by the writer, and this
throws the weight forward on that part of
the ship still resting on the ways. Ths
force of the water is called the "momens
of buoyancy," and the natural tendency Of
the ship TO drop to the bottom of tha
stream is called tho moment of weight"
Now, the moment of buoyancy must al
ways be greater than tho moment of
weight, but 1t must not be very much
greater, for IL 1t were 1t would throw too
much weight forward on the part of the
ship still on the ways and might break
them down or injure the plates or keel of
the ship. When tho great English battle
ship Families was launched, this did
really happen, and so great was the strain
near the bow that parts of the cradle were
actually pushed right into tho bottom OF
the vessel. 1t is this danger OF isaster

of the disease. Two exceptional instances
OF refusals TO comply with reasonable de-

force them will not long he delayed.
The State board OF health are authority
for the statement that swill or any nuis-
ance yet discovered is not responsible for
the cases OF diphtheria thus far reported.
That there is q cause yet undiscovered
they have no doubt, and steps are being
taken to unearth the secret cause Of the
afiiiction.
Two cases of sarlet fever were reported
yesterday on "Pine Hill" This district
Is on elevated ground. far from the thick
ly populated country in the west part OF
the town, and an official was asked this
morning what connection, IL any, the
swill collecting department had with these
cases of fever on Pine Hill. "Why,n he
said, "there has been talk of using a lot
on thac hill to dump the swill on but
it has not commenced as yet.'
