Robert ]. and John R. Gentry made an
effort to lower their records on the track
of the Hudson River Driving Park, at
Pong hkeepsie. on Wednesday. The best
time Robert j. could make was Q liz.
At the first trial of Gentry the official
record was 2. 06, and as the driver said he
was not acquainted with the track, he
was given another chance. This time the
king of PAGERS finished in OBJ. 1t ia
said to have been one of the prettlsst per-
formances in Gentry's remarkable history,
and had the track been in perfect condi.
ton it is believed he would have lowered
his record.

Vineland club tomorrow.
Manager Sickler and his club will be
be here on the tn.
Woodstown will have crack battery
for the Vineland club.
1t is stated that the home club will
accompany the excursion to Ocean City
on Thursday, as a game has been ar
ranged with the club at that place.
The condition of Harry Taylor is so
serious that it is thought he will not be
able to play any more this season. He
was struck in the head by pitched ball
in the last Woodstown-Vineland game
at the latter place, and the injury has
caused him much pain the past two
weeks, and an operation will probably be
necessary to obtain relief. The ball
struck him nearly in the temple, and a
large lump has formed there. Harry
has worked hard for the home club the
past season, and the clubs victories are
largely due to his excellent pitching
His many friends here hope for his
speedy recovery.
The Woodstown Club went to Vine
land last Saturday to play a game with
the club of that town, but upon reaching
the ball grouLds found the Collingdale
club there and about to play. Manager
Reeve at once sought Manager Cooley of
the Vineland club and was informed by
Mr.. Cooley that telegraph dispatch
had been sent to Woodstown during the
| week canceling the game with the home
club, and that the message had been sent
by Captain Daley. Manager Reeve
informed them that he had received no
such message, and Mr.. Daley insisted
that he had sent. it, but when trip to
| the telegraph Office was proposed, in
order to learn why the message hadn't
reached Woodstown, the Vineland clubs
captain at once acknowledged that be
bad been handling the truth rather reck-
| lessly, and had not sent the message, so
the home club had their trip for nothing
In order to make matters right, Manager
Cooley offered to bring his club over here
tomorrow and the offer was accepted, SO
the people of Woodstown will have an
| opportunity of seeing what kind of q
showing our club will make against one
of the South Jersey League clubs. You
| can't afford to miss this game.

MORE GOLD.

The Klondike region remains TOT the
future to prove its value as a gold pro-
ducing country. 1t may turn out the
greatest i'm the worlds history. Its
nresent promise is such. The gold Is
there. but can it be got out? The
chances are that it can and will be.
In the mean time many other and older
gold producing districts of the world
are surprising their previous records in
the output OF the precious metal The
gold fields of the Transvaal Republic
broke all its monthly records in October
with yield of more than 2I4,WO
ounces. That means about S5,4oo,0oo
in gold, for the product Of the South Az
rican mines is very fine. The October
output, therefore, was at the rate OF
about $50, 900 year. If that pace
can be kept up it will not be long be-
fore South Africa must take first place
among the great gold producing regions
of the world. The United States will
scarcely yield S65,O00,OO0 in 1898. and
there is no promise of such results in
Australia But the Yukon valley may
beat even the Witwatersrand by 1899.
If America must drop into second place
for one year the old leadership will
probably soon be recovered. But alto
gether the production of gold for the
next four or five years promises an i'm
mense volume, unequaled by any like
period in the history of the world.

GEORGIA CIVILIZATION

A tacit recognition of the rights and
limitations of lynchers appears in a bill
which recently passed the Georgia SEN
ate. Tie bill does away, to quote from
Geographic report, with the arbitrary
three-day limit fixed by the supreme
court in which murder in hot blood is
not a hanging offense and leaves the
matter Of impulse entirely to the jury"
There were only two votes in opposition
to this measure, and they were cast by
senators who held that the bill was an
encoura cement to lynch law. No doubt
they argue that murder in hot blood"
is usually that form of justice which
lynchers are accustomed to administer,
and to give jury the right of convict
ing a lyncher or murder in the first de-
gree while he was exercising the right
of private vengeance within three days
after the committing of the crime seems
to them unnatural and unjust.

territory lying back Of Lagos that the
trouble with France has come. Eng
land has obtained possession of the en-
tire lower part of the Niger valley,
while the upper course of that great
river is in French colonies and
sphere of influence" as the great
hnd-grabbing powers OF Europe call
territory which they claim but do not
OCCUPY. 1t is much the same situation
which existed in the Mississippi valley
when the mouth of that river was
French territory and the rest Of the
valley was in the possession of the
American republic France is trying
to get as near 10 the sea as possible,
and the British claims are being pushed
as far inland as they can be made good.
Just now the French government as
sumes a very stiff position in regard to
the disputed region in the Niger val
ley but unless France was sure of eff
fective support she would court great
losses by forcing England TO hostilities.
AS the superior sea power of Great
Britain led to the conquest of most of
tine vast French possessions in America
and India, in the last century, and the
first years of the nineteenth, so
ingle-handed conflict between England
and France now would probably end in
sweeping the French out Of Africa and
Farther India 1t must be that the
French ministry believe England to be
SO much embarrassed by the danger of
Russian aggression in Asia that they
feel pretty sure Lord Salisbury will
yield a good deal before risking war.
In the end the question will prOba-
bly, be settled without blOodShed, but
the situation in Africa is such that
similar difficulties may be expected at
almost any time. 1t will be strange if
a great war does not some day grow
out of the wholesale and often con-
fiicting claims TO African territory
which are made by nations of the first
rank
