the cup given by James Gordon Bennett and
Ogden Goelet was contested for. this being
the second event for that trophy since it was
donated.
Last year the race for the cup was de-
clared OFT, ~ only two yachts appeared at
the starting line, while the conditions required
three starters.
Though three vessels started today, the
Ailsa. Britannia and Satanita, still there was
no result. as the yachts became beoalmed
under tho Ice of the Esterel Mountains, and
were unable to finish the courae -hefore- sun
down. The Britannia was in the lead during
the first and part Of the second round, but
the Ailsa afterward took the lead and main

From Chehalis Tribune OIoquiam.)
The Washingtonian objects to Mr. w.
G. Jones drawing full salary from the
state and at the same time talking against
the republ lean party. Why bless your
soul, Mr.. Washingtonian, the state treas.
ury don't hold the republican campaign
fund. Did you think the republican par
ty owned the state? We know that the
republicans have been considering the
salary fund as general campaign fund,
but the people don't look at it that way.
We were under the impression that Mr.
Jones served the state and not the repub-
lican party; and we thought he received
his salary for those services. But no,
the Washingtonian says he "draws his
SO, 900 as republican," Do all republic
cans draw salary? What is the salary
OF first class Mark Hanna republican
now? Come, my dear, get used to people
drawing a salary and at the same time
working against the republican party,
and don't say anything more about re-
publican principles, or we will hunt up
some old Washingtonians with free silver
editorials in them for people to read.

Probable Suicide.

Tuesday evening. about s o'clock, as a
fisherman known az Austrian Pete and
his partner, AL Kerr. were drawing in
their net opposite the railroad wharf,
they discovered the body Of John Fuss,
still warm but stone dead. He had been
drinking rather heavily for several days,
and was last seen about O'Clock on Tues
day evening at Dolan's saloon. lie had
threatened suicide several times, also
that evening, but no one took the threat
seriously. The finding OF the body proved
that he was in earnest.
lie was a German, about As years Of
age, and came from Centraia about a
year ago, and has worked most OF the
time in the blacksmith shop at Miners
foundry. He leaves five children, the
Oldest a daughter IA years old, who is
attending school here; the others being
at Centralia.
The body WAS taken in charge by
Undertaken Beardsley, and interment
will probably be at Centralia, where his
wife is buried.

Wind and Sound,

The means by which wind may be
ueasured by its sound is novelty In
modern scientific research to which the
attention of the National Academy Of
Sciences has been drawn by Professor
Barus. He asserts that the whistling Of
the wind as it crosses a wire varies with
tho velocity, and that this can be COM
puted from the pitch of the note OBJ
served IN case Of II given diameter Of
wire and for n given air temperature. A
special micrometer attachment can be
made to convey the sound. isolated from
other noises, to the observer at dis
lance. Thus every gust and variation Of
the wind can be studied in this way,
and M idea Of the actual direction Of
tho gust can be had by means of tho
sounds obtained from three wires placed
ut right angles to one another.

The meeting Of the Bryan silver club
Friday evening was held in the rink
owing to the presence Of Hon. II. l.. For
rest, Of Olympia. The Wynoocho drum
corps rendered valuable assistance on the
occasion. The audience was the largest
and most enthusiastic SO far held in this
city. The glee club, consisting of Messrs
Peters and Amidon Bros, aided greatly
in making the meeting success. The
star OF the occasion, however, was Mr..
Forrest who delivered the address. He
spoke for over an hour and half and
was listened to with the closest attention,
meeting with frequent applause. The
speech was from beginning to end, a
plain, concise argument in favor Of the
Chicago platform, and was delivered in
a most eloquent manner. 1t is safe to
say that Mr.. Forrest gave our gold stand
ard friends much food for thought and
the proofs of his position as presented
will be hard nuts for them to crack.
