Another Worlds Record Smashed.

Minneapolis, Aug, 1.-THE worlds b.
sycle record for 1000 miles. held by l..
A. Edge Of London. and made over an
ordinary turnpike road, has been broken
by A. A. Hansen, who covered the dis
lance in % hours and A minutes. The
time made by Edge was 103 hours and ID
minutes. 1t may be questioned whether
Hansen will be accorded in all quarters
the worlds record. as he rode over a
boulevard, while Edge made his ride over
an ordinary road. At the same time 1t
is questionable whether Hansen's path
was at all superior to the hard macadam
of the English country road.

MlSHAP TO SHAMROCK.
Slight Accident Delays Yachts Start
For America.
THOUSANDS CHEER THE BOAT
Captain HOgarth Smllingfy Makes
the Statement That the Americas
Cup In as Good AS In the
Locker of His Graft.

London, Aug. 4.-The departure Of the
cup challenger Shamrock was delayed by
an accident to her bowsprit. The Sham
rock had left Fairie, but was compelled
to put about and return.
The yachts start was witnessed by
thousands Of spectators, fairly wild with
excitement.
A dense thr6ng ran along the shore
cheering, shouting and waving handker'
chiefs and flags
Again and again the great crowd burst
into, "Rule Britannia" and the song ran
all along the line.
Siren whistles on yachts and steam
ships added to the tumult. They were
ablaze with color wherever a flag could
be hung or nailed.
Everybody ashore and ahoat cheered
until tired nature forced Il truce, and
then the enthusiasm found vent in shak'
ing and waving all sorts of banners.
Captain Hogarth and his crew bucsled
down to their work with n will, and the
enthusiasm Of the multitude was reflect
ed in the broad smiles of the Sham
rocks sailors, who returned the cheers
again and again.
As the yacht left her anchorage Cap
tain Archie Hogarth shouted to those on
shore:
1.-The cup is as good as is the Sham
rocks locker"
The Shamrock and the Erin, Sir Thorn
as Lipton's steam yacht, will take the
southerly course, proceeding easily, and
the voyage will probably consume %
days.
All the time the Shamrock lay off Fair
lie she was surrounded by yachts and
small boats. The reception of her crew
was demonstrative in its enthusiasm.
As the course of the Shamrock will be
south of the track of ocean steamships it
is expected that she will not be reported
until she nears the Azores.
All of her crew of so men were on
board when she made her start.
During the day the challenger's flag
signals will be S. H. NJ. X. E. At night
she will show Il great light at the bow
and stern and yellow one on the mast.
Sir Thomas Upton has bought in New
York Il steam tender for the Shamrock,
he Killowen.
1t was noted as good omen that the
last racing yacht which sailed for Amer-
ca from Fairle was the unbeaten Miner
va, skippered by Charlie Barr, now skip
per of the Columbia.
Shamrock's racing spars will be taken
to New York by the Anchor line steamer
City of Rome.

PACIFIC OCEAN EXPOSITION.
TT rs SAN FRANCIsCO's GREAT
EST OPPORTUNITY.
Will Illustrate the Vast Possibih-
ties of the Commerce of the
Pacific Ocean.

\ (From the San Francisco Call.)
w H. Mills, one of the members or
the general committee Of the exposi-
ton, has given considerable thought to
the fair of 1901 His views are clear
and strong. He brings out prominent
~ the immediate advantages to be de-
rived from the fair, and also it's import
ance to the future of San Francisco and
the State of California. Speaking Of
the matter yesterday he said:
IT am in favor of holding a meeting
of the general committee of the Pacific
Ocean and International Exposition for
the purpose Of hearing and discussing
in a tolerant spirit the differences OF
opinion which may exist among the
leading citizens Of San Francisco as to
the holding of this exposition. The
general committee has undertaken 10
assume charge of the conduct of the
exposition, and it should hold meet
ing at which every one would have an
opportunity to give expression to his
views In this way the committee
would obtain consensus OF opinion
either for or against the proposition.
In other words, I am in favor Of some
measure that will weld all our people
together and, induce them to act in har-
mony and in cooperation.
Lord Beresford has declared that he
is glad that the United States has as
serted it's ownership Of the Pacific
Ocean. That is a most significant
statement. We acquired the Pacific
Coast territory upon the theory that
the Pacific Ocean was to be some day
| - q nd
| that upon it's shores a great empire
of wealth and population was to be
| founded. The statesmen contempora-
| neous with Jefferson saw plainly that
| the establishment of great common
| wealth to expand into a powerful ma
| ton would be a menace to the United
| States; hence, the expansion Of our
| territory to the Pacific Ocean. Time
| has passed and we are to-day in the
presence of the fulfillment of all the
prophecies that have been made by
| the statesmen of all times, even down
as late as William H. Seward, who de-
declared that the Pacific Ocean was to
| be the theater of a national drama,
SURPRISING in magnitude and grandeur
all past human history.
II believe that the superior CONNER
cial and industrial powers of the peo-
pie of the United States will make this
nation the dominating force in the
commerce of the Pacific Ocean.
THE present is an opportune time for
illustrating the commercial possibilities
of the Pacific Ocean. Heretofore we
have looked to the Atlantic Ocean as
the naturaD theater for the development
|
cisco being on the Pacific Ocean is d.
rectly interested in Illustrating to the
world not only the present volume Of
Pacific Ocean commerce, but the posi-
bilities Of that commerce. And it can

in themselves. as by a great exhibition

adequate. As soon as DIR. Hartman an
nounced that it was his belief that the
after-effects of la grippe was simply sys-
temic catarrh, a great advance was made
in the treatment Of these cases. 1t now
only remained to find reliable remedy
for systemic -catarrh.
Here new difficulty arose. Catarrh
had been regarded by many physicians
as a local disease and treated solely by
local remedies. Such physicians knew
| OF no systemic remedy for catarrh.
Other physicians regarded catarrh as q
blood disease and had been in the habit
OF treating it with blood medicines,
which could be of no possible use In sys-
temic catarrh.
For time Pe-ru-na enjoyed the dis
Junction OF being the only systemic ca,
| tarrh remedy known. 1t was not even,
| claimed. by anyone that there was an
other remedy for this exasperating con.
dition. Since then, however, a great
many remedies have been proposed for
systemic catarrh, and great deal of
valuable time wasted in experimenting
with other remedies. But 1t still re-
mains true that Pe-ru-na is the only spe-
cific remedy for the after-effects of la
grippe. The demand for this remedy,
in consequence of the present epidemic
| of la grippe, is enormous.
The beneficial effect of Pe-ru-na in
these cases is often SO prompt as to APP
pear magical. Every mucous mem brane
of the body feels the effect Of the first
dose, and its benefcent effect continues
until the disease is entirely eradicated.
Everyone should read DR.. Hartman's
latest lecture on la grippe. This lecture
will be sent free by The Pe-ru-na Drug
Manufacturing Company, Columbus. o.
The record-union., 1899-02-16

that in the first week Of January OF
that year it had been declared that the
gold output of California would be moth
ing unless the city of San Francisco
would expend a million of dollars to
carry on the mining enterprises of the
State. Would any one hesitate to
spend a million of dollars that 1S,O00.-
600 in money metal might be brought
to light and diffused through the arte-
ries of commerce?
but suppose that the estimate of
SIC, 100000 as the amount that will re-
inforce our own capital, as the result
of the exposition, is too high. and the
amount is placed at $1O,O0OOOO. that
volume Of money to be added to the
working capital of the people of Cali
fornia is certainly worth earning. Leave
out of the question actual figures about
which there may be controversy, it
cannot be denied that an adequate ex-
position will result in a very large re-
enforcement Of the cash capital of this
city and State.
In all this, it will be seen, we have
several separate and strong induce
ments. The first of these relates to the
demonstration of the position of the Pa
cific Ocean as a most important COM
mercial waterway by an adequate ex-
hibition of the resources Of the coun-
tries bordering upon that ocean. The
second resides in attracting the atten-
ton of the world to the bright dawn
of our future greatness which has been
prophesied by our wisest men in all
periods Of our history The third re-
lates to the assertion of the CONNER
cial supremacy Of San Francisco on
the commercial map of the Western
Hemisphere and ocean, and the fourth
and most important relates to-the in
huence which a national undertaking
of this kind will have in the direction Of
establishing the ocean as a controlling
factor in the Industrial and commercial
development of the State of California
and Of the Pacific Coast States and Ter
ritories generally.
1T should also be taken into consid-
GRAFTON that the success of the Pacific
Ocean Exposition in 1901 will undoubt-
eddy mean the realization of most of
those projects which have been sug-
gested in lieu of the fair, such as in
creased transportation facilities and
new industrial enterprises for the
State.
This is the greatest opportunity ever
presented to San Francisco. If she
misses it some other city will undoubt-
eddy take advantage of it, to the lat
ter's advancement and profit and to the
shame and detriment of the California
city and the people Of the State"
