tween England's champions, Bubear and
Barry, and Americas flyers Teemer and
Rogers Both crews were in fine condi-
tons, and the cOures was all that could
be desired. The start was made in excel
lent style, Teemer and Rogers taking
water just a hairs breadth first. Blu
bear and Barry followed and few sweep
ing strokes sent them ahead of the Amer
lcdIls, ana as they passed the first quarter
stake, full boats length of daylight
was between them. The Americans were
pulling straight up the course, sticking
to their oars at a thirty-eight clip. Al
the three-quarters stake the English We're
only a half boats length ahead, but Blu
bear and Barry We're evidently not alarm
ca, ana pulled away with "A beautiful
stroke. The Americans continued to gain
on them and both crews rounded the mile

stretch they We're neck and neck At the
three-quarter stake the Englishmen had

Rogers second. 1t was a steadily pulled
and pleasing race with the changes in the
relative positions of the boats until the
last stretch was reached. In the last
turn of the stake, Gaudauer led with
Rogers second and Peterson third. Tee
mer had dropped out and on the home
dash Hanlon pulled out, leaving eau

SEVENTH DAY ADvENTIsTs..
Five on Trial for Violation of the
Sabbath Acquitted.

Chattanooga, Tenn, Nov. 6.-Five Sew
enth Day Adventists, on trial at Day
ton, Tenn, for Sabbath violation, were
to-day acquitted without the jurors leav-
ing their seats This is construed to
mean decided revulsion in sentiment
towards these people by the citizens of
Rhea county, where they have a thriving
settlement at Graysville, notwithstand-
ing that they have heretofore conducted
their own defense, refusing to employ
a lawyer, and have as regularly been
found guilty.
At this trial. Judge Lewis Shepherd Of
Chattanooga, and ex-Congressman Snod-
grass of Dayton, volunteered In their de-
Tense, and both made eloquent and sue
cessful appeals to the reason as opposed
to the prejudices of their mountain neigh
bors, composing. the jury. Judge Parks
struck at the false base of these prose-
cutions, which have attracted national
attention in his charge yesterday, in
which he broadly intimated that the cases
were trumped up on questionable testi-
mony procured at the instigation of wit
ness fee spectators and fee grabbing
officials. The trials to-day are in all
probability the last that will be brought
against these people in East Tennessee
for an abundance of good lawyers can
be secured to defend their cause at any
time without fee or request for the sake
of religious liberty, which has been given
a vicious blow in Tennessee by these
prosecutions.

This may not seem very much, but ADDED
to the chances of a split turning up, "
really means a great deal.
When the dealer is proficient he Will
carefully note the line of play adopted
by high roller players, or, as the un-
enlightened would say, players who bet
heavily. During the next shuttle he will
put up the cards so as to cause these
thigh rollers" to lose, and somewhere
about the middle of the pack he VIII place
the ''odd." Or NJ may be he will so arrange
matters that the shuttle and the curt Will
bring one of the duplicate cards about
a third of the way down the pack, and
THE other a third Of the distance from
the other end. Thus he viii have two
opportunities Of withdrawing two cards
at once either of which he can USE as
may suit him best.
Surprising that hitherto the heaviest
betting had been on the nigh CARDS, the
dealer will put up the pack in such a way
that only the low ones win for the players.
That Is to say, the cards VIII come out
alternately high and low, the high ones
falling to the bank. As the game pro
crosses the first of the tell-cards by de-
grees comes nearer and nearer the top,
and the dealer looks out for the needle

fore may have altered their play, betting
now upon the low cards.
If this Is so, the bank will begin to
lose but not for long. When the tell
card has become the second from the
top the dealer manipulates the tWO-card
device and draws out two cards at once.
The run of the game is now altered.
The cards still come out alternately high
and low, but the high cards now go TO
the players AS they have taken to bet
ting on the low ones, they lose in conse-
signs of changing their mode OF betting
when the first tel-card nears the top,
the dealer does not alter the run of the
cards but goes straight on. When ne
comes to the second duplicate card he
must deal out two at once or the odd

them.

the sand tell box cards are used which
are roughened on one side or both sides.
ONLY the tell cards are smooth, and this
fact is ready discovered by the players.
The pin tell boxes are so constructed
that when the desirable cards (Which are

CAROLINA's CONVENTION.
An Effort to Guard Against Fraud
Voted Down.


Columbia, S. c., Nov. 6.-The constitu-
tional convention has at last completed
the discussion of the suffrage article and
the whole thing has now been sent to
the third reading. This morning a Wig
orous effort was made to prevent the pos
sbility of fraud in the handling of the
registration books, but provision look
ing to this was killed.
After an extended debate the ordinance
providing for an issue of state bonds to
enable the several counties of the state
to do business on a cash basis, was killed.
The convection tonight took up the sec
ton of the article on jurisprudence al
lowing the state to secure charges of
venue from one county to another in
criminal cases, giving the state the same
right as is allowed defendants. The real
meaning of the proposition is that the
state wishes to try men charged with
violation of the dispensary law in coun-
ties other than their own. This was
adopted in the bill. All the lawyers have
been turned loose on the vital question,
ana until a late hour tonight a lively
debate has been in progress. There will
be an hour and a half's further debate
tomorrow morning.

Yerely handled the dispensary law.

OUTLOOK.

Business seems to be picking up in
some sections of the country since con
gress adjourned. The adjournment
has done more to restore confidence"
than the meeting of any previous con
gress since the war. A number of
idle manufacturing concerns have
started up and in several instances
wages have been increased without
strike OF friction.
However, this Improvement is only
an ''era of reconstruction" ga calm
after a storm" tt cannot be more
than q slight, temporary respite. The
money question must be settled and the
circulating medium increased before
the adjustment will be perfect and

OBJECT LESSON IN SPELLING.

The following item appeared in the
Raleigh Evening Press g few days ago.
Read it over two or three times and
note the spelling and grammatical con-
struction:
zone of the most ludicrous acts of
the late Assembly of confusionists was
one to establish the Grand United order
of Callahan fisherman of North Caro-
liny. The act is for the benefit of a
charitable object and the author of the
bill spelled the name of our State as it is
now ingrossed and above spelled"
We will grant that the assistant en-
crossing clerk spelled Carolina with a
"y" at the end. But that is a small
ofense when you compare the item
above with it. The brief paragraph
contains at least two or three gram
NAUTICAL errors and no less than five
misspelled words. The Press editor
may plead that his errors were simply
oversights. The legislative clerk may
with equal grace claim that he knew
how to spell Carolina correctly, but
forgot to do it.

RALLY YOUR ALLIANCE. MEM.
BERS,

cannot fo1bear once more to urge,
with all the earnestness 1 am capable
OF, that the Alliance shall resolutely
begin to pull itself together, to take up
the study Of the situation as it develops
the lines along which the political
forces will be formed for the great and
decisive conflict which all must now
realize is impending, writes DIR. M. G.
Ellzey, President of the Maryland
State Alliance, in a recent article. The
Alliance was the first great organization
to discern that the financial problem Is
and must always be the dominanO
factor in every industrial quesVlOn'

than all elsa, the determined an" Pc
sistent demand of the Alliance 'm

to the front. Even those VINO were

IMAGINATION of those whom they were
nIeased TO style ''silver lunatics" are
driven TO the admission that the fnan-
cial issue is paramount to every other,
and its settlement at an early day i'm
peratively necessary as a condition
precedent to the revival of industry
and the return Of prosperity. It is
absolutely necessary that all friends
Of reform shall come to an understand
of the terms and conditions on
they can cooperate. This de,
nands a clear-headed, dispassionate
of the whole field in a liberal
spirit of compromise and mutual for
Oearance. In such a crisis the con
sentative and judicious zeal Of the
great farmers organization will be
badly missed. 1t remains now for the
Alliance to convince others since ad-
vocates of reform that if progress is to
be made conservative counsels must
prevail. The great rural messes are
by nature and from the inspiration Of
their environments cautious and con.
sentative. They will not support a
public policy until they are convinced
that it is first of all just and right,
and, furthermore, that it is essential to
the good of the whole community.
