MlLWAUKEE'S FOURTH.
Day Given Over to a Programme of
Sports-Few Persons
Iniured

Milwaukee, Wis, July 5.-Milwaukee
celebrated. With the exception, how
ever, of Aid. Bryden's f1ag-raising there
was nothing of an organized effort to
display patriotism, and except those who
remained 1T home or sought the parks
for rest the people gave themselves over
to a programme of sports.
The first big event was the WaukeSha-
Milwaukee road race. which George
Schmidt, a husky young rider of the
Badger Wheelmen. captured with ease
in $3.50, with handicap of nine and
Il half minutes, crossing the tape at
Grand avenue and Twenty-eighth street
at O'Clock. II minutes and 20 seconds.
He led A. f. Bingenheimer and j. NJ.
Guilty, who finished a close second and
third respectively. by about 400 feet, and
had he wished to he could have won by
from three to six blocks. The time prize
was won by A. G. NIertens of st. Paul,
who finished in thirty-ninth place and
established a new record for the race.
His time was 1872 The race for time
honors was exciting.
In the second annual regatta of the
Lake Michigan Yachting association

fore her competitors did, and Valiant.
after a poor start. outfooted the other
class 3 sloops, Phantom coming second,
although jeanette started across the line
first.
About $4,000 people witnessed the
races at State Fair park. The principal
event was the Milwaukee Derby, which
was won by Buck Massie in a canter.
He had walkaway, none of his COM
petitors at any time coming dangerously
near. Buck Massie was the favorite,
and there was no betting done ON his
chances--everybo body believing him to be
sure winner. He took the lead from
the start and was never headed. The
bookmakers did big business.
Nobody was killed and the list of in
jured was surprisingly small. Nor were
there any big fires.

The three unknown people were sup
posed at first to be DIR. Franz, his wife
and daughter of Elgin, III. A later re-
port from Elgin shows the Francs are
at home and safe and the identity of the
victims of the disaster is not yet fixed.
The little party had chartered the boat
shortly after 3 o'clock and it had
steamed about in the swarm of pleasure
craft that dotted the lake. At 4 O'Clock
threatening clouds began to gather and
most of the boats began making for
shore The launch did not heed the
warning and within few minutes, when
it was opposite Lake Side park, the
storm broke in fury.
The boat seemed staggered by the sud-
den shock of wind and changed it's
course several times, as if at the mercy
of the elements. 1t finally righted itself
and continued up the lake. When nearly
opposite Cranes there seemed to be a

The course of the boat was changed for
Cranes pier apparently, when the boat
was again headed up the lake. 1t had
gone only few hundred feet when the
boat was swamped by the immense
waves which the heavy wind had raised.
As soon rs possible after. the storm
had passed the steamer Majestic started
out in earch of the boat and the bod
les. After cruising around in the local
ity the crew found the body of Miss Ho-
gan floating near the shore short dis
lance from the summer residence of Tier
bert A. Beidley. Miss Hogan wore a
fashionable dress with large puff sleeves,
and these sleeves were found to be full
of air, and, together with satchel she
had in her hand, caused the body to
float No trace of the other bodies has
been found, although the cap of the en-
gineer was picked up near where the
body of the woman was found.
The launch was about 80 feet in length
built of oak, brass trimmed and uphol-
stored with plush. 1t was brought here
by Mr.. Ide of Springfield, Ill.,, who used
it as Il private yacht. 1t had no deck.
and when last seen the parties had the
storm curtains down, which would nat

FIGHTING CHINCH BUG.
Pointers for Wisconsin Farmers Sent
Out from Madison.


Out from Madison.
Madison, Wis, July 5.-[Special.E
A circular has just been issued from
the Wisconsin experiment station for
fighting chinch bugs, which have APP
peared in injurious numbers in several
sections oA the state. The value of the
remedy. emulsion of kerosene, has been
established by experiments made during
the summer of 1891. Directions for
making and applying the remedy are
given by Prof. E. S. Golf, as follows:
Slice half a pound of common bar soap,
nut it in a kettle with one gallon of soft
water and boil until dissolved; put two
GALLONS of kerosene in a churn or stone jar,
and to it add the boiling-hot soap solution;
churn from twenty to thirty minutes, when
the whole will appear creamy. II properly
made mo oil will separate out when few
drops Of the emulsion are placed on piece
of glass. To each gallon of the emulsion add
eight gallons of water and stir. Apply with
a sprinkling pot Every farmer should learn
to- make this emulsion, as it is most useful
insectfeide. Paris green will not kill chinch
bugs If the remedy is tried it should
be used persistently. To kill one lot of
bugs and then stop will do little or no good.
Anyone trying the remedy is requested to
send tine results of his experience to this sta

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30. - The
markets for the products of the
United States in Great Britain are
reviewed in detail in the recent
consular reports. Cattle from this
country are reported from Liver
pool as superior to the native cat
tie. Consul Neat, at Liverpool, re-
ports, however, that sheep from
the United States and other coun-
tries do not compare favorably
with the British sheep, lacking in
taste and tenderness, and 1t is sug-
gested by experienced men that
this might be greatly improved by
shipping the sheep younger, say
one or two years old. America fur
nishes the entire foreign cattle
supply for the Glasgow district,
and the condition in which the an
finals land is regarded as highly
