One of these he caught, and threw it

was swarminF with fish, it was only
after 4 long time that he lurcd another

that lie could catch trout Us long rs he

TOO HARD A BREEZE.
The Kaiser's Yacht Meteor Did Not

COWES, Isle of Wight, August 6.-The

regatta of the Royal Southampton Yacht
Club today started from Southampton.
Niagara soon had a good lead, with the
Isolde second and Luna third. The latter
carried away Stephanie's bowspril, and the
last named yacht retired. Niagara won.
Emperor William boarded his yacht, the
Meteor, formerly the Scotch cutter Thistle,
hich was defeated by the Volunteer in
1887 in the races for the Americas cup.
His majesty was dressed in yachting cos
tune and intended to start with his yacht
in the race fer the queens cup. half a
gale of wind was blowing, which would
have required the emperor's yacht to have
a couple of reefs in her mainsail, and as
Meteor is no match for Britannia in such
weather she did not start.
During the morning Emperor William
boarded the German warship Woerth, this
being the anniversary of the battle of
Woerth, and made a speech. He pointed
out how the battle of Woerth was the be-
ginning of the campaign in which the
union of the German races had already
found expression.
Prince Henry of Prussia called for cheers

What do you think ought to be done to

To Increase the Revenue.
"A merely partisan view Of this might be
that the democratic administration should
either take the republican prescription or
else be their own doctor. But the situation
is such that mere partisanship can hardly
control. No matter where the fault lies,
and it is obvious where it does lie pa
trlotlsm demands that the treasury should
not be permitted to run into bankruptcy,
and such relief as can be effected should be
offered. In view of the different policy be-
tween the Administered ton and Congress,
there is very limited field of action. 1t
seems to me since the failure of the income
tax that probably the best thing that can
De done is to pass stamp act.
There is a sentimental objection to this
on account of our early revolutionary his
tory. but altogether it is about the best
tax to meet the present emergency. 1t
would accomplish just about what the logi-
cal advocates of income tax desired, and
what the law they passed would not have
accomplished. 1t is tax which would fall
upon those people best able to bear it, and
which would be felt almost as little as any
tax could be. Parties making big real es-
tate transactions, or passing notes and
drafts and mortgages. would not feel the
small! percentage going to the government
by the stamp tax. Anywhere from So
VD,OO0 to $4,000, COO, according to the scope
of the law, could be raised from such a
tax. and I think it entirely probable that
measure CT this sort will be pres ented
IN The next Congress- and there will be
very strong arguments in favor of it as the
best means of supplying the deficiency in
the revenue"

BELIEVED TO BE LOST.
Two Well-KnOwn British Ships Lena
Overdue.


Overdue.
SAN FRANCISCO. August 6-Two we'll.
known British ships, one bound from Mel
bourne for London and the other from
Newcastle, N. S. W., to Panama, are long
overdue, and local insurance men who have
some risks on them have given both up for
lost. The bark Florence sailed from New
castle on January 26 of this year and has
rot been heard from since. The supposition
Is that she has foundered or gone ashore
on the South American coast.
The other missing vessel, the ship Stone
leigh, sailed from Melbourne on February
q, and therefore is now out 159 days. The
British ship Dunsyre, which recently ar
rived in London from Melbourne, reported
having spoken the vessel on March 1. On
the fifth day the Dunsyre encountered a
terrific storm, in which she lost sight of
the Stoneleigh. and the next day she pass
ed through lot of wreckage. The general
belief is that the ship went down in the
storm and all hands persisted.
SAVANNAH, Ca, August G.--The French
bark Towney, Capt. Guynut, is believed to
have been lost at sea- She left Newport
News for Savannah on July l, and is thir-
ty-six days out. She is reported to have
been seen off Hatteras bearing signs of col
lision.

PERRY cARsoN's COMPLAINT.
District WITHDRAWING Work Taken
From His Brother.

Perry Carson has a grievance. Ever since
Perry left the employ of the District he
has been the official Whitewater of the
city. That is, he has always obtained for
his brother the work of embarrassing the
station houses. 1t was small JOB at its
best, but served to keep the wolf from
the door. When Perry applied this year
for the work he was given to understand,
lie says, there would be no trouble. But
charge came to pass. Perry declares the
officials who had the matter in charge
secured the city aud found man who was
willing to do the work few dollars cheap
eli, and totally ignored the record he had
made for good work He added that he had
served al bis trade oil piastcrer and white
washer for long time: having started to
learn his trade at the age of thirteen with
William Warner of Baltimore. But this
amt politics." said Perry with smile,
they can't fool the old man when it comes
to manipulating the anti-Carsonites."

Minutes, Ten Seconds Ahead.

NEWPORT. r. l., August 6.-The crack
sloops and schooners of the big New York
Yacht Club fleet today contested for the
cup offered by ]. r. Drexel OF the New
York Yacht Club. Eight 5000 cups were
offered. four for schooners and four for
single sticker5 and the prizes We're suffi-
GENTLY attractive to bring out large num-
Der of starters.
The chief interest of the yachtsmen and
| the hundreds who watched the race from
shore centered. of course, in the contest be-
tween Defender, Vigilant and Jubilee, al
though in the opinion Of the majority there
was no doubt as to the conclusion, barring
accidents, as the faith of all the enthu-
siasts is now pinned on Defender.
Lack of wind was the only complaint
sailormen could make against the weather
when they turned out this morning. The
sun was only partly obscured by light
clouds, which We're burned away al an
early hour, and al 8 o'clock there was
everything to indicate that the day would
be lcear and warm, probably with light
southwest breeze. -...-..
At about 1870 Vigilant put in an ap-
pearance around the end of the point, com
ing down under mainsail two headsails and
club topsal. '--- --.
She was followed half hour later by the
Defender, under similar sails, but the Ju-
bilee, at 1850, had not appeared, and the
race started with the two Herreshoff boats

miles an hour. The weather conditions
were almost exactly similar to those of last

Jubilee.
At exactly II o'clock the preliminary gun
was fired from the Sylvia, and both boats
at that time were considerably to Ieeward
of the mark. The Niglant however, came
about and stood over toward the light ship
for the more favorable position.
Defender crossed the Hne at IL $3.50; Wig

At II: 80 am. the Defender blanketed the
NigilaEt to windward, and reaching ahead
of her secured a lead of an eighth of a
mile.
At 11:1O the first gun was fired for the
small sloops, and they started, with Queen
Nab in the lead. The schooners started at

Five minutes later the small schooners
