Secretary of Royal Ulster Yacht
Club Coming to America.
New York, Aug. THAT the Royal u
ster Yacht Club is in earnest about the
challenge for the Americas cup is as
sured. 1t was learned tonight at the
house of the New York Yacht Club that
the cablegram which was sent by Sir
Thomas Lipton's representative IN Lon
don to Secretary Oddie on Saturday was
a notification that the Royal Ulster Yacht
Club will do itself the honor to issue a
challenge for the cup if such challenge
should prove agreeable to the New York
Yacht Club.
1t further stated that Secretary Kelley
and his conferees would sail on August p
with the object of arranging the details
The designer of the challenger, VIII Fife,
jr, will be one of the party.
At an early date Commodore Morgan
will call a special meeting of the club
to regularly consider the challenge and
appoint a committee 10 conduct the pre-

CUP CHALLENGE.
Sir Thomas Upton Imposes No Con-
dftions. Hut Displays EGOtism

London, Aug s.-The Morning Post
says that Sir Thomas Liptons challenge
for a contest for the Americas cup rs alb
solutely definite and unconditional. The
whole matter is left in the hands of the
New York Yacht Club. 1t will be for
the committee of the club 10 settle the
terms of the contest. The Post adds:
Certainly this is chivalrous 10 de-
gree. Doubtless Sir Thomas, who knows
American feeling intimately, has good
reason for anticipating a similar spirit
on the part of the present holders of the
cup. but from a seaman's standpoint We
will be playing with the odds against US
until we build yacht in Canada under
British supervision. from designs pre-
pared here"
The Chronicle publishes an interview
with Sir Thomas Upton, who asserted
that there had been tendency 10 un-
derrate the smartness of American
yachtsmen and the craft they pit against
the British. He added:
Il do not intend TO repeat the mistake
this time. We are going 10 have a yacht
as perfectly fitted for the task she has
got to perform as money and brains can
make her. Her name viii be Shamrock.
1 do not wish the other side 40 know
>what we are doing. so I will not say
how the boat will be built, whether of
metal or wood"
In the course of the interview Sir
Thomas declared:
My yacht will be made in style that
no other yacht was ever made in before.
1 have taken the matter in hand as
business. 1 have never undertaken any
thing in which 1 have not succeeded"
The blatant self-assertion in the inter
view is not likely to be approved by the
sporting community here.

Color Photography.

Ever since the discovery of Daguerre
there has been an eager desire to record
by photography the colors as well as
forms of nature. Colored pictures have
been made by what is called triple
heliochromy," the making of three
negatives Of the same object through
differently colored screens-red, green
and viOlet-and then by a process OF
printing from the three negatives, pro-
ducing a colored picture. A later and
simpler method is invented by DR.. Jolly,
by which the picture is made through
a screen ruled with lines Of orange. vel
lowish green and blue, so close to-
gether that the separate lines cannot
be seen. A transparency is printed
from this negative and covered with
a glass ruled with red, green and VIC
let lines, and when the lines Of two
are properly placed the separate col.
ors recombine and the transparency
shows the colors Of the original. Pho.

CASE OF JOE HEPBURN.
He Had Trouble in Getting Hanged for
Crime That Bothered His
Conscience.

Three months after Cummerford
had elected town officers and become
law and order town old Joe Hepburn
came riding in on his mule and in
quired for the president Of the whilom
vigilance committee. When he had
found his man, he said:
1--WE come to give myself up to be
hung, and being it's getting late in the
day, you'd better get to work at once"
"What have you been doing?" was
asked.
"Tm the man who killed Bill
Sharpe"
Eyes, remember, but we can't hang
you now. We've become law and or
der. You have to go and be arrest
ed and tried and hung in the regular
way"
The old man said 1t didn't seem to be
the square thing to put man to all
that bother, but he walked about until
he found the city marshal, and then
said to him;
I'm old Joe Hepburn, the man who
killed Bill Sharpe"
"How long ago was that2" was
asked.

"Then I've got nothing to do with II.
They ought to have lynched you, but
being they didn't, I'm not going to

But l want to be arrested"
Cant help that. We amt dating
things only three months back. You
might go and see the mayor, but
don't reckon IL will do any good"
After hunting about for half an hour
the old man found the mayor and told
him who he was and what he had
come for.
"Yes, remember about Bill Sharpe, /"
was the reply. 'He was a bad 'un, and
Y you hadn't shot him, / was going TO
