DEFENDER STILL STICKS.

Attempts to Get the Big Yacht Out of Her
 Cradle Prove Futile.
 BRISTOL, R. l., July 1.-All efforts to release the Defender have proved futile, and she is still fast in the same position into which she sank during the unsuc- cessful attempt to launch her Saturday. At intervals during Saturday night and Sunday, when the tide served, both tugs and divers were at work, under the direc- tion of the Hcrrcshoffs, applying every means in their power to release the yacht, but each time as the tide rcceded the work had to be abandoned.
 The fears felt by tho builders and oth- CTS that the yacht may become injured by the strain of her position have not ahated and after thorough inspection of the boats position by the divers the builders were convinced that if the night's attempt was not successful the bow of tho yacht will have to be frightened by pontoons to relieve the strain as much as possible dur ing the further work of getting her into deep water.
 Steel hawscrs were attached to the era dle, and tugs took them aboard and started to pull at the obstructcd mechanism. The strain was too great, and the gearing on one tug broke, and the hawscr held by the other snapped asundcr. From this it is feared that the work of releasing the boat will be much more difficult than was an ticipated up to that time.
 Hundreds of visitors came to town Sun | day to view the yacht as she rested at the | foot of the ways, and q large number of yachtsmcn sailed into the harbOr. All day | sightSccrs lined the water front in the vi | cinity of the HcrrcShOtfS works.

 Sulphur is good for chronic diarrhca. For constipation, sulphur will often give speedy relief.
 Sulphur may bo kept in small muslin bags in drawers and cupboards, as a pro lection against the ravages of the red and black ants.
 For preventing vermin in bird cages, tie littlo sulphur in n bag and suspend it in the cage. Sulphur is said to kill all kinds of fungus i'll man, beasts or plants
 To disinfect clothing, mix one teaspoon full of tho milk of sulphur to one pint of water, sprinkle tho clothing lightly with this, then iron 1t with an iron hot enough to volatilize the sulphur without burning the clothing.

 "You nrc neither fish nor flesh. You can neither fly nor walk. You belong neither to tho land nor the sea. For what possible use could nature have intended you?"
 The clam made no reply, but closed his shells and was thrown down in contempt. Just then n second traveller appeared, and seeing the clam lying at tho edge of tho water ho said to the 1lan who had apostro- phizcd it:

The condition of Orlando who was a bachelor, when hc approached the dukes hoSpitablc board in Arden Forest, was prosperity itself compared to lis Miss Potter being a sympathetic soul and having just received her salary, hastily wept and thrust $50 into the hand of her unfortunate friend. That evening she went with party to Delmonicos for sup per, and to her astonishmcnt she discov cred at a nearby table the starving actor drinking champagne with q soubrctte.

BATTLE IN THE STREETS,
One Reason Why Life In Oklahoma City Ii
 Uncertain.

Uncertain.
 OKLAHOMA CITY, O. T., July 1.-As result of jail delivery at this point two people are dead and several wounded more or less severely. When Jailer Carver en- tered the corridor of the jail at the usual time to lock the prisoners in their cells, Robert Christian, Vic Casey and William Christian made q savage onslaught on him with fire irons which they had man. aged to sCcrcte.
 He was struck a terrific blow over the right eye and knocked inscnsible. The prisoners dashed over his body and away to freedom, scattering the people on the crowded streets and keeping at bay their pursuers with a rapid discharge of revolv- CTS, which in some manner they had ob- taincd. Vic Casey jumped into a passing vehi- | cle containing a man and woman, and at the point of pistol compelled them to | jump out. Almost before they had time to obey his command Chief of Police Jones ] opened fire on tho escaping prisoners, who | promptly returned the fire.
 | A terrible fusillade then took place be- | tween Christian and Casey and several officers. Casey and Officer Jones wore in- | stantly killed, and another man was shot through the leg and woman slightly wounded. One of the Christians then mounted the dead officers horse, while the other compelled Q citizen to get out of his buggy and drove furiously out into the country, closely pursued by posse ot l infuriated citizens.
 Bloodhounds were brought into requisi- tion and there is but little doubt that l they will be captured Should they be caught, a double lynching will surely fol low.
 Vic Casey was 19 years old. He killed Deputy Marshal Sam Farris at Lukon o. IT,, last summer. He would have beer released on bond tomorrow.

Fellow

We are looking after. The fellow that thinks none of the business houses have what they advertise. We can hardly blame you, for the temptation to tell a little bigger one than the other fellow is great and when you sec some of the people actually believe some of the impossibilities advertised you can hardly blame the ad- vertiser for making the dose bigger than the other fel- low when they seem to swallow that all right. Whatever the temptation
