Miss Eager at Plymouth, Mass.

The old town of Plymouth, Mass, is
to have an historic festival, which in its
interesting character and general
uniqueness promises TO out-rival anything
OF the kind ever given in this country.
The life OF The Pilgrims before leaving
England, their stay in Holland, their
arrival in this country, their home life
and later history, Will be represented In
series OF brilliant scenes. Inc beautiful
story of their lives, their sorrows, their
thrilling adventures, told In this novel
and attractive way, cannot fail to inter
est oil lovers Of the esrly history of New
England. A great many of the charac-
ters will be taken by the descendants OF
the people who came in tho Mayfiower,
which will add doubly to the interest.
The history OF this people will be fol-
lowed down almost To the present time.
Not only the town OF Plymouth, but
the neighboring towns Of Duxbury and
Kingston. where several Of the promi-
nent Pilgrim families Rfterward settled,
are actively interested in this festival.
IL Is TO be held on tho 2Yth, 3lth and
3ist OF July and the LIST and 80 of Aug ust,
and will be under the direction OF Miss
Margaret MacL Eager of New York,
who has wide-sDread reputation as an
organizer and director OF entertainments
of this character. Excursion rates md
special trains are being arranged for. and
the people OF Boston, Providence and
New Bedford, and all towns within a
radius of 60 milca, viii be given an OPP
portunity to enjoy this beautiful enter
tainment

THE INTERNA TfONAL YACHT RA CE.
The first heat in the international yacn
race for the trophy put up by the Sea-
wanhaka- CORN tnian Yacht Club and
successfully defended last year Is on to-
day between the American half-rater Il
Heirie and the Canadian challenger Glen
cairn.
The event will take place on the Sound,
outside Oyster Bay. Both tho little boats
viii be sailed by their respective design
ers. There 10 no doubt rs to the boats
beIng as truly representative as possible,
the challenger being selected in competi-
tion with seven others and the defender
from class OF fifteen OF the little fleet.
There will be five races, and the cup
will go TO the winner Of three. The
course covers twelve nautical miles, tri-
angular. two miles to leg, being sailc 1
over twice. The yacht experts believe
that the American boat is the stronger in
stin trceze and heavy sea, and that
the Canadian NAV prove the better in
light winds.
This Is the only International yachting
event Of tho year In American waters
and while II Is not sensational and can
not be expected to create tho popular in
terest that attsches to the Americas
cup contests, II vies with the latter for
sportsmanliko attractiveness to thousands
OF yachtsmen.

The rescuers made fair progress in the
work of clearing away the debris in the
passageway. Ex-Congressman Shonk,
who is mine operator OF wide ex-
perience. offers a suggestion, that a COM
mIttee of experts should be appointed
to make an estimate Of the cost that
will be incurred by the Newton Coal

A rne fellow is ARTHUR SEwALL of
Maine. whom the Democrats and Popu-
lists and Anarchists and whatnot have
nominated for Vice-President on the
ticket with the Boy Orator OF the Platte.
lie is crank, too, ono OF the hard
headed down East Yankee kind. They
are to be found in every New England
state, the SEwALL type, and nowhere
more numerously than in Maine. They
are like the ocks Of the rock bound
coast. They are sot in their ideas and
are exceedingly hard to bulge. They
will listen to the campaign orator and
the minister with respect, but they will
sturdily reserve their right to hold their
own views OF God and man and politics
superior TO the influences OF eloquence,
argument or coercion. Coercion! You
might as well try to coerce Block
Island to move in nearer shore with the
rest of us!
They pervade New England like stiff
backbone and a whole framework Of
ribs. New England Is formed and
built up ana padded about them. Not
all OF them hold all the tenets that dis
tinguish SEwALL among his Yankee
neighbors. We guess few Of them agree
with his silver ideas. But never mind
what they believe or what they do not
believe, they are the men who set up
the heavy foundation stones upon which
the New England structure rests se-
curely and from which there was strength
and energy to spare to build mp good
part OF the rest OF the country clean out
into tho timber West.
So far as we have poted his career,
SEwALL believes in nothing Of Importance
that the Democracy has ordinarily held
TO. lie IL fighter for American ships
and for protection to American industries
and American labor. And yet he calls
himself Democrat and sticks to it that
