Yacht clubs challenge cup for small
yachts this afternoon The GlencaIrn
was turned bottomsidc up and coat of
black lead was rubbed into her until she
Plistened like a coach. There were some
minor changes made in the FL Heirie. but
nothing of vital nature, and Us far as
the eye can see both boats are in perfect
readiness to go over the course when the
signal for the start shall have been given.
The series of races to be sailed are to be
not less than three nor more than five.
and the trophy, a silver cup, will be
awarded to the winner of three of the
races. Two courses of twelve miles each
have been selected at the mouth of Oyster
bay, on Long Island sound. One of these
courses will be three miles TO windward
or leeward and re :rn, sailed twice over,
and the other u triangular course, two
miles to the leg, twice over. The first race,
which, with the proper weather condi-
tiOns, will be sailed this afternoon, is TO
be over the former course
The skipper of each of the contestng
yachts Is her designer as well, and both
are experienced in sailing small boats.
Mr.. G. H. Duggan, of Montreal, will man
age the Glencairn during the races, and
Mr.. F. 2. sherwood will act as the crew
of the challenging boat. Mr.. Clinton H.
Crane is the youthful captain of the FL
Heirie, and his brother, ID. NJ. Crane, will
handle the sheets. Neither of the shippers
could be forced to say anything concorn-
ing the possible outcome of the races, fur

would end as happily as last seasons races

its situation in 1860 is correct The same
spirit of rccklcssncss and intolerance
manifested by the southern section of the
party thirty-siN years ago is displayed by the
silvertes to-day. William l., Yancey, in the
Charleston Convention, called the Douglas
delegates aboitionists; Tillman terms Cleyc-

of his section, said the iiro-eators had just
about enough strength to split their party,
and meant to use it. He predicted the
wreck of his party in 1860 and Whitney, a
sagacious observer also, makes n like forecast
to-day. Whimey's judgment will be JUST

in recommending DIR. Kings New Discovery,

brought down with Pneumonia succeeding

would last hours with little interruption and

MAYS LANDING, \. j., July l3.-The
date for the trial of John Rech for the
murder of his wife, Bessie, is set for We'd
nesday of next week. The state is ready
for the trial. Lawyers Endicott and Ste
phany have been at work on the case con-
stantly ever since they secured an ad-
journment. They find much difficulty in
securing witnesses. All of those whom
they desire reside out of the state and are
loath to testify in murder trial. As
Freeholder Saul, one Of the jurors is suf-
fering from injuries received in recent
railway accident, it is believed the case
may be again postponed until the Sep
tember term.
