English Press Comments


LON DON, Sept. 1.-THE Times says
We thought the judgment might go
against Valkyrie, but it was not antici-
pated that the committee would do more
| than order a resail. That issue most of
us here would have desired, and it would
also have met the Wishes of our sports
| manlike kindred in America. 1t is, how.
| ever. not quite clear whether the commit
tee has power to order the race resailed.
The Standard says: The Judgment of
the committee will be accepted without
demur. They must be credited with a
| single hearted desire to decide the ques-
tion on its merits. The laws OF sport are
memorable and from a technical point of
view we suppose the committee had no
alternative open to them.
The Posi- mments: Whatever English
feeling may be there is nothingto be done
but to accept the verdict. 1t is possible
Mr.. Iselin will offer to resail the race.
but it is not certain that Lord Dunraven
| would accept tho offer il made. At the
same time it would be both graceful and
sportsmanlike course for the Americans
to pursue. The misfortunes attending
the two first races cannot but prejudice
inc Sport OF 1nLernaUODdl yuCllb luolhB.
1t may he taken for granted this 10 the
last contest which will be sailed IN New
York waters. r. =
A writer in the Daily News says: 70
have given the race to America seems
rather sharp practice. surely no race
would have better met the justice OF the
case. 1t may be racing Jaw, but it is
hardly sport. The severe award of the
committee is poor reciprocity OF the
generous treatment OF the Cornell crew
at Henley.
The Chronicle says: We confess we do
not see why the committee SHOULD award
the race to Defender. Had Valkyrie will
fully fouled, the penalty could not have
been greater. There is no equity in the
decision, and we shall not be surprised
if Lord Dunraven declared the rest of
the races off.
The Graphic commenting upon the de-
cision OF the regatta committee on De-
tenders protect, says:
Much as every Briton will regret the de-
cision, the verdict of the committee will
be accepted nosless Loyalty by the cisat-
lantic public than by Lord Dunraven
himself The owner of Vallyrie is so
thoroughly sportsman, in the only true
sense of the term, that had the protest
not been sustained he would probably
have asked permsso for the race to be
sailed over so as to win, il win he might,
without even the imaginary assistance OF
an accident.
The Yachting World, in its issue TO-
,, morrow, will say:
Two races have been lost. one actually
and the other virtually. Whatever may
be the verdict about the protest, we can
not possibly doubt that Defender was
moral victor. We must console ourselves
by admitting that the Herreschoff boat
is exceptionally well adapted to this pur-
pose. We believe. however. that If Mr..
Herreschoff should be obliged to design a
boat to cross the Atlantic. 1t is more
than likely that Watson would design

HE RAN AWAY TO THE WAR.
His Mother Tied Him to a BedpOst for
Safekeepfng, But He Escaped.

From the Memphis Commercial-Appeal
It was early in the year 1861 that Jerry
Oakley. a boy only years old, was tied
hard and fast to the bedpost all day to
keep him from volunteering his services
TO the confederate army. But Jerry was
a determined little man, and when the
Dixie Guards reached Richomnd. Va,
Jerry was one of the number. He could
beat the drum and he could shoulder a
musket, and he could fight and he did.
Jerrys mother was a widow, who lived
in the town of Owensborough, Ky, at the
breaking out of the war. The Dixie
Guards was the home company Of the
town, and Jerry watched the soldiers day
by day as they drilled in their pretty gray
uniforms.
Finally the day came that the company
was to march away to the war. Jerry
was all aglow; he was going; but his
mother said no, and she tied him up hard
and fast. 1t was an awful day for jerry
