BRITANNIA AGAIN BINS.
The AilsG Easily Defeated in a Light

HUNTERS QUAY, SCOTLAND, July H.
in a race over the usual course. Both
boats carried jib-headed topsails and all
their lower sails. The wind was strong
from the south. They crossed the line
very nearly together. The Britannia
worked to the windward and obtained the
weather berth of the Ailsa, which she held
at Skelmorlie, that mark being rounded as
follows: Britannia, 11:07:55; Ailsa,
HOS go
From Skelmorlie it was dead heat to
Ascog. The wind was blowing strong.
and the race at this point was close and ex-
citing. The Britannia rounded Ascog at
boats were running free under light wind,
with spinnakers and jib topsails set.
The Britannia continued to hold a lead
of about three clear lengths. The Britain
MIA rounded Kilcreggan at 1852 20 and the
AilSa at 1858 :05. 1t was now dead heat
for the commodore's boat, the Britain
MIA holding close to the Ailsa's weather.
The commodore's boat was rounded as
follows: Britannia, 1:12:21; Ailsa, 1:13:3 5.
The Britannia rounded Skelmorlie at
2:18:10 and the Ailsa at 2:20:45. Round
in the lead. The rounding was made at
these times: Britannia, 2:50: 07; Ailsa
2:56:48.
Both boats were becalmed for an hour
after passing Aseog, when a light breeze
sprang up and they moved slowly up the
channel, the Britannia long way in the
lead. The last part of the race was very
slow, indeed. The Britannia got the best
of the wind and increased her lead greatly,
rounding Kilcreggan too far in advance to
be caught up with. The times of rounding
the Kilcreggan mark were: Britannia,
5:06:27; Ailsa, 5:29:1S.
The wind was very light. Britannia
won, finishing at 5:45 20; Ailsa, 5:59:58.
The twenty-raters also started, the Da-
kotah at 10:45 :07, the Niagara at 10:45:1
and the Zinita at 10 :45:3 The Eucharist
did not start. The twenty-raters finished
the first round in this order: Zinita
BYPASS, Niagara 1925 40, Dakotah
12:31:3 5. The Zinita had good lead over
the Niagara on the way to the weather
mark on the second round. The Niagara
gained the lead on the beat to windward
and held it to the finish, winning with
ease. They finished this way: Niagara
2:26:21, Zinita 2:27 :49, Dakotah 2:3S:05.

A CASE OF EVICTION.
L. b. Mills and His Family Turned Out
Into the Street for Arrears
of Rent.


I. B. Mills, 113 Fell street, called at
police headquarters last night, and re-
ported case of eviction that had the ele-
ments of cruelty in it. He had been living
for some time in the house, which is rented
by Mrs. ]. w. Teller.
He works along the water front and has
hard struggle to support his wife and two
young children, the youngest being only
SIX weeks old. He was in arrears with the
rent of his room to the extent of So. Mrs.
Teller had been pressing him for payment,
and on Wednesday night he gave her
81 30, and promised to pay the balance
next week. He thought this was satisfac-
tory, and went to his work yesterday morn
ing thinking his troubles were over for the
time being.
Last night when he reached home he
found his wife and two children in the
street, the latter with only their night
gowns on. Just as his wife was putting
the children to bed Mrs Teller decoyed
her out of the house. Then one of Mrs.
Telfer's male roomers passed the two
children out of the front window to her
and left them standing on the street not
knowing what to do. Mills tried to get
the landlady to take them inside, but she
refused, and he did not know what to do
as he had no money to 60 anywhere else.
Mills after telling his story broke down
when he was told that the police could do
nothing for him and went away in search
OF place to shelter his wife and children.

Not Lost, but Visiting.

A little girl or years old stood at a
gate on Cass avenue the other day as a
policeman came along and just at that
moment a dog came trotting up and sat
down as if at home
That's no lost dog" explained the
child, as she saw the policeman eying the
canine.
''It's your dog, perhaps?" he inquired.
"No, sir; it's not our dog, but we visit

He had a glass beaker in one hand and a

when they reached his side life was extinct.
He was carried into an adjoining room and

WOMEN WERE ADMITTED.
Misses Julien md Page at the School
OF Phil0SoiJhy


The Hall of Philosophy, of the Catholic
University began its career yesterday in an
active and practical sense. About 8 O'Clock
the students began to arrive. and the great
stone building presented a truly scholastic
appearance.
Mr.. Robinson, the registrar, was promptly
on hand and began the work of enrolling
the candidates for university bonors.
Although no official announcement has
yet been made by the board of directors
in regard TO the admission of women. the
problem seems to be solved by the fact
that two young ladies have applied and
have been received into tie Greek academy.
These ladies are Miss Adelaide Julien
and Miss Martha Page, both of the Dis
trict. The Academy of Greek IL under the
direction of DR.. Daniel Quinn. a member of
the philosophy faculty, who, from the first
stage of the controversy, favored the ma
circulation or women.
Under the charter of the university, its
doors are open to all who can fill It's re-
quired conditions in regard to mental at
tainments and moral status. Women can,
therefore, be students of this great Catho-
lie University. If they have sufficient edu-
cation to pass the necessary examinations
for admission, and perseverance enough TO
follow its exalted course of study.
Whether they can receive degrees here
is anotner question. ana one to Which no
definite answer can be attained. A great
number OF Catholic prelates a re in favor
of higher education for women
As Cardinal Gibbons quoted, in speaking
of the great mission of woman, ''The hand
that rocks the cradle is the hand that rules
the world" so it is safe to assert that IL

allowed women to matriculate regularly,

Spectacle Witnessed In the Cele-
bration of the Holy Communion.

tion OF Holy Communion, with which the
trennial conventiono of the Episcopal Church
was ushered in this morning. was the most

and blue, occupied the cha noel of st. Gcthse-
name, which was brilliantly Illuminated
with candles and fragrant with floral Of
ferings.
Eight hundred clerical and lay delegates
and local churchmen occupied the pews in
the body of the church, while the front
seats of the temporary galleries were filled
with the wives and daughters OF the visit
ors in toilets which, although subdued in
color, furnished an appropriate background
to the picture. Admission to the church was
by ticket, and a crowd of several thousand
gathered on the outside to witness the
arrival of the distinguished participants.
At the opening notes of the professional
hymn, Forward Be Our Watchword,' the
head of the procession moved from knick-
erbocker Hall, and crossing the lawn, en-
tered the edifice through the main aisle.
The bishops of Kansas and Indiana, as the
juniors of the Episcopal lords, led the
column and the senior bishops brought Up
the rear, the delegates from Canada being
given position of honor between Bishops
Whipple and Coke, the two seniors in at
tendance.
The regular order of common prayer
and Litany had been said at the Z O'Clock
service. and when the bishops had taken
their places the communion service was
begun by the reading of the epistle by
Bishop Neely of n aine.
The gospel was read by the Archbishop
of Ruperts' Land, and the aims were re
c eived by Assistant Bishop Gilbert of
Minnesota in a golden bowl valued at
several thousand dollars, which was brought
from England, many years ago. Bishop
Whjpple was the celebrant of Holy COM
munion, and every bishop and delegate
approached the Lords table.
The service was wholly choral. the chants
and hymns being rendered 10y suppiiced

was delivered by Rt. Rev. Bishop Coke
of the Diocese Of Central New York

JUSTICES In A FLUTTER
Alexandria County Magistrates to

Com monwealth Attorney Dickey

Prosecuting Attorney Johnson who was
present Ia represent the commonwealth,

rected that the case be dismissed. with
costs against the complainant. Mr.. Hooker
was not disturbed by this, as he felt that
everybody familiar with affairs in the
county and knowing Mr.. Johnson's record
and connections would understand this
result as complimentary to him. He pro-
poses to carry the facts before the October

RING OUT CUBAN LIBERTY


Through Secretary Olney it has already
been intlmated that the Cubans can eX-
pect no favors. He is OF the opinion that
Should Spain finally succeed in suppress
ing the insu rrcction this government
would make itself liable to heavy damages
were the insurgents recognized as belliger-
ents. That is the ADMINISTRATORS view of
the question, and ii is this conservative
way of considering it that prompts such
energetic measures for suppressing fili-
clustering expeditions as have beenadopted.
II is not likely, however, that Congress
Will be SO timid. The bugaboo of Spanish
claims for indemnity will not frighten
representatives of sympathetic pubic
from declaring for the Cuban cause, es-
pecially when that guaranty
of Cuban success. Therefore, within a
few months the Cubans may lock for this
country to recognize them as belligcrents.
While the old Liberty Bell is ringing its
song of freedom throughout the country,
and while thousands are doing it honor,
both at Atlanta and while IL is on its
journey, let those who hear its notes re-
member the days OF the revolution, and our
forcfathers who fought for liberty as the
Cubans are now doing. Their cause should
awaken a thrill of patriotism in every
American heart and arouse demand for
Cuban recognition throughout the land
that not even our sluggish President could
regret. And 1t will.
