FAMOUS NAVAL TROPHY.
xUhv RritiSh Yachtsnen Wish TO
win the Americas Cup.


The sportinp event par excellence of
the year, the one OF most importance
TO Americans, Is the contest for the
Americas cup, which will take place on
%ba ocean co,,rse of the New York Yacht
club between the 7th and 14th of next
September.
the cup offered by the queen of England
in 1851 for competition among the
yachts Of all nations. 1t was valued
then at 100 sovereigns. Plate of this
character is frequently overvalued.
have no doubt, observes writer in the
Philadelphia Press, that many Ameri-
can silversmiths would be glad to du-
plicate this cup for $3.50.
Since the cup was won by the yacht
America, In the regatta from Cowes,
around the Isle of Wight, August .,
1881, the English have made seven I'M
successful attempts to recover it, and
the expense attendant upon these futile
efforts has been over s1,000,O00. The
eighth attempt will be made at the
cost TO Lord Dunraven and the other
members of his English syndicate of
not less than $4,000.
In the attempts to wreSt the cup from
ms 10 races have been sailed, in all
kinds of weather, and Of these only
Epne was won by the English represen-
tative. That one was taken by the
Livonia, in her race against the Column
bia, October 10, 1871. The Columbia was
disabled The day before she had
beaten her competitor nearly II
minutes. In the succeeding races Of
the series the Sappho took the Column
bias place and beat the Livonia with
ease, .. ..E
It is needless to state that the Eng
1ish would not have spent 1.-THE of the
money it had cost them to try to re-
gain the cup merely because of its In
ltrinsic or sentimental value. They are
too practical for that. They know that

Botes on Silver.

A recent letter written by ex- Gov.
Boies, of Iowa, upon the free coinage
of silver closes with this declaration
Zone fact ought to be recognized by
ali. This nation will not long submit
to financial system that places it at
the mercy of the money power Of this
or any other country. frankly admit
that if the question is to be narrowed
to the single issue of permanent gold
monometallism on one side or uncon-
ditional free coinage of both metals at
the old ratio on the other, am in ia
vor of free coinage, because / believe
it will at least be the beginning of a
broadened financial system that will
if necessary be so perfected in the near
future as to give us an absolutely safe
and sound currency, the foundation of
which will be, legally at least, and /
believe practically, the equal use of
both gold and silver as money of re-
demption."

laughed to scorn their attempts 10 w1n
&c back.
Our new war steamers far exceed in
speed, armament and ability to travel
long distances without recoaling those
of any other nation. China and ia
pan will, in the next five years, spend
millions of dollars for new war stesIifs
ers. If we resist successfully the eighth
attempt 70, Yrest the cup from US,
,Ihish will be made next September, at
least half Of this money ought N be
spent in our ship yards, and doubtless
It will; That is why all Americans,
regardless Of political preferences,
should desire the Defender to defeat
the English yacht, be she Ailsa or Val
kyrie Ill, or, better still, the prince of
Wales pet, the Britannia.
The English have long claimed, and
their persistency in making the claim
and in reiterating it has induced many
to believe it, that they can build ships
far cheaper than we can. This is fall
lacy. Their frst-class ships cost more
than we can build them for, as has been
proved in the case of the St. Louis and
st. Paul. The cheap tramp steamers
they build could not get register from
the United States government. They
do not come up to our requirements in
many essentials.
Regarding our prospects Of retaining
the cup, it can be said that they are
fairly good, though it must be admitted
we have more to fear than ever before.
This is because the English have, re-
luctantly, adopted many of the features
that go to make up the distinguishing
points of American boats. Practically,
the Ailsa is an American model. In
breadth of beam, in shallowness of
hold and in her practically fin keel she
far more closely resembles our boats
than any in England. The Valkyrie
Ill. will have to be feet to beat her.
To most German visitors to Rome
Goethe is a sort of diety, and after his
death every trace of his stay there
however unimportant, was unearthec

shrine. One of these shrines is a
humble inn, where the great poet USED
to take glass of wine in the evening
Mr.. Rudolf Lehman relates that ar
enthusiastic young Teut9n, engaged in
this pilgrimage, asked the waiter in his
broken italian whether this was really
the spot that Goethe used to visit
''Goti, Goti, no 10 conosco, never heard
of him." said the waiter. Then, seeing
suddenly that he was disappointing g
customer, he added; 'Oh yes, Of
course, Gothic has just this moment
gone"
