Now that the full programme, including the

1t Is generally anticipated that the rule will

great players from entering. because a man may
not be able to devote nearly three months to the
tourney. 1t would have been much better to
arrange that the twenty players accepted be

tary of the council, yesterday afternoon.
As already told in THE Sun, the English

It would be impracticable. even if desirable. to
make an alteration at the present time.
The consensus of opinion among British
yachtsmen and naval architects is that the
girth rule is producing what was intended,
namely, q fuller.bodied boat; also that 1t does
not encourage IN too marked a degree any par

For n number OF years prior to the establish

residents Of Harlem took the lead in matters OF
uptown Improvement, particularly as regards
the extension OF the facilities OF transit, the I'M
proyement OF the Harlem River, the stopping of
railway trains uptown, the development OF
streets, tho enlarged water supply, and tho
matter OF grading, paving. and sewer construc-
ton. Since tho establishment of the Greater

them that the Pepperell and Laconia would not
