What France Thinks of It.

Paris, June 17.-The Temps, referring to the proposed annexation of Hawaii by the United States, says:
 "We regard the annexation of Hawaii less as the result of carefully consid- cred plan than as an attempt to rele- gate to obscurity the dangerous, thorny affairs of Cuba President Mckinley evidently imagines that in throwing to the Chauvinists this bone to pick he will procure momentary respite. This calculation, too, is probably erroneous becouse nothing will so contribute to strengthen aggressive Pan-American- ism and whet the appetite for Cuba as this first taste at the expense of little Hawaii

New Record for 15-Mile Paced Compe- tition-Time. 20 Mimntes. 12 Seconds.

tition-Time, 29 Minutes, 12 Seconds.
 Cambridge, Mass, June H.-Jimmy Michael, the Welsh wonder, beat Eddie
 McDuffee on the Charles River park
 track this afternoon in the hottest fif-
 teen mile bicycle race ever run in America, and at the same time estab-
 lished a new fifteen mile paced compe-
 tition record of 29 minutes F seconds. McDuffee led all through the race up to the last of the 18th mile when his pacers became worn out and the little Welshman behind fast triplet forged ahead and won by 100 yards. The weather conditions were well nigh per- feet, there being only a slight breeze and 15,000 people enjoyed the sport im- mensely.
 The conditions of the Michael-Mc- Duffee race were exceedingly novel.
 Each man was allowed as many pacers
 as he pleased and the pacers were all lowed to ride all sorts of machines.
 The result of this was that there were
 three seXtets, two quints, three or four quads and a number of triplets all on the track at nearly the same time, while as fast as the men on one ma
 chine became tired, another lot took up the unwearied racer and carried him along. McDuffee's pacers were
 nearly all on seXtets and qunts, while
 a couple of triplets did great work for Michael.
 The race started at 5:20, after a good afternoons sport, in which an Ameri- can record for a new race, the two mile tandem competition, standing start,
 was made in 4,05 1-5 by Butler brothers. Summary:
 Michael-McDuffee race for $500 side, fifteen miles, paced:
