SHAMROCK ARRIVES.
Sir Thomas LiptOn's Cup Chal-
Ienger Reaches New York.

New York, Aug. 1S.-Sir Thomas Lip
tons yacht Shamrock, challenger for
the Americas cup, reached this port to-
day accompanied by her tender, the
steam yacht Erin. The Shamrock sail
ed from Fairlee on the Clyde, August
3 and made the Transatlantic voyage
in much quicker time than was antici-
pated.
The Erin towed the Shamrock about
1000 miles and the latter sailed some
thing more than 1.200 miles. Her best
days run under canvas was 26S knots.
Most of the towing was done after
passing the Azores, August 8.
At quarantine the yachts were
promptly cleared.
The Shamrock was yaWl rugged and
painted light green. She carried the
blue ensign of the British navy with
Sir Thomas Lipton's private signaI4
green shamrock on yellow ground, with
a green border. The Shamrock shows
a light silvery metal where the paint
has been scraped from the sides. The
crew of the yacht is well satisfied with
the behavior of the challenger.
On board the Erin was Chevalier
Martino, marine painter to the queen.

ENGLAND's TREAsON CASE.
Brassey Accused of Publishing Impor-
tant Defense Secrets.

Chicago, Aug. 1S.-Lord Brassey. au-
thor of "Brassey's Naval Annual"
parliamentary secretary of the admir-
atty and holder of other high positions
in the British empire. is under charge
of treason, according to a story which
the Tribune will print.
Gen. st. George Willis, one of the
most distinguished officers of the Brit
ish army and former governor of Ports
mouth, has charged that Lord Brassey
laid bare some secrets of England'S $
coast defenses which might be utilized
by Britain's enemies to immense ad-
vantage The material was secured
through his official position and put
into a book which he is selling for pri-
vate gain.
The book, according to the charges.
lays bare all the weak points in the de-
fense at Portsmouth and other points
along the coast 1t says there are many
harbOrs without battery protection
which could be utilized by an enemy. II
the enemy were a great military power
and had secured control of the sea, he
might do what he liked with the Eng
lish dock yards.
There are no diagrams of fortifica-
tions, but important plans of British
warships are given in the book.

IN A BOX CAR.
"ChickenpOx" Patient Causes
Scare Today.

A smallpox scare was started at the
Santa Fe yards Thursday night and for
a while this morning the employees of
the lumber yard refused to go to work
because the smallpox patient was quar-
tered in a box car just north of them
The patient is John View, hneman
from the territory. He came to town
Thursday and walked the streets He
did not feel sick at all but noticed
few pimples breaking out on his face
and body. He went to the Santa Fe
hospital for treatment. DR.. Freeman,
the house physician, summoned DR..
Peers, the city physician, and the case
was pronounced to be chickenpox.
The rules of the hospital association
prohibit the caring for any patients
sick with a contagious or infectious
disease in the hospital building. A
switch engine ran a box car down to
the end of a track in the lumber yard
and it was transformed into a field
hospital" The car stands on the bank
of Shunganunga creek under the shade
of a large tree about half a block from
Sixth street and there John View is
having as comfortable a time as the
narrow limits of his quarters allow. A
nurse is constantly with him. He does
not feel sick but will have to remain
in his box car for several days until
the disease disappears

GOLF IN TOPEKA.
Links Will Be Laid Out at the
Fair Grounds.

A golf club for Topeka is assured.
Within the next few days, it's organi-
zation will become a matter of fact and
Topeka will be added to the long list of
cities that have taken up the Scotland
born fad
Charles E. Gault and Ned Osborn are
at the head of the movement, and in an
hours work Thursday afternoon they
secured the signatures of 20 we'll known
Topeka men. Double this membership
is desired at the start and the 20 addi-
tional signatures will probably be Sc
cured today.
The county commissioners have prac-
tically given their consent for the use
of the fair grounds for the golf links.
The services of a thoroughbred Scotch
golfer of Kansas City can be secured at
. any moment for laying out the links,
and w. V. HOare, manager of Willie
Dunn, the champion golfer, and him
self an expert manipulation of the
sticks, will be in Topeka within the
next week for the purpose OF supplying
the mem mbers of the club with the nee
essary paraphernalia and giving any
expert information that may be de-
sired.
The membership of the club will as
yet be entirely of men. but each mem
Der will have the privilege of inviting
his lady friends to enter the sport. The
initiation fee will be made So, and the
dues probably 81 a month.
By two weeks from this time it is
expected that Topeka people will have
the opportunity of seeing the game.
which has taken such a strong hold in
the east in full blast in this city. As
matter of course the game will then
become familiar. and it is believed by
the golf enthusiasts that it will pro-
woke as much interest and prove as
much of a fad as it has in other cities
where golf clubs are established
The feature of the game is the ability
of the players to drive their ball over
the course of nine links in the smallest
possible number of strokes. The nint
links usually aggregate one mile and
three-quarters, but there is no cast
iron rule about this. There is no speci-
fed length for a link. and they may be
laid out in varying. lengths, just so the
total amounts to something like three
quarters over mile.
Every link has a "teeing'' ground,
one or more bunkers, a putting
ground and a hole The ''teeing''
ground is the starting place, from
where the ball is first driven. A bunk
er is an obstruction in the course, rails
ed to different heights, over which the
ball must be driven. The putting
ground lies in the vicinity of the hole
at the end of the link, and from here
the ball is driven into the hole.
There are 16 different make of golf
sticks, but three are only absolutely
necessary for play.
One of the buildings at the fair
grounds will be arranged as a tempor-
ary club house, and as soon as the links
are laid out a man will be employed to
keep them in repair.

4 Man Arrested For the At
tempted Assassination
Of the Senior Counsel of Cap
tain Dreyfus.
HIS NAME is GLOROT.
Confesses That He Is the Per-
son Wanted.
Police Are Inclined to Doubt
His Statements.

Rennes, Aug. 1s.-The man who at
tempted to murder Maitre LabOrf
leading counsel forCaptain Dreyfus. has
been arrested at Doll in this depart
ment. His name is Glorot. He is a
native of the department of COtes du
Nord and has confessed
GlOrot was arrested because he said
in a cabaret yesterday:
4 am the man who shot Labori."
The police, it is now said, believe the
prisoner is only q Iunatic or a drunk
ard desirous of attracting attention
and his so-caled confession may turn
out to be nothing more than an empty
boast. The police, however, are inves-
tigating the recent movements of the
prisoner.
LABORI NOT so WELL.
Rennes, Aug. 1S.-Maitre Labori was
not so well this afternoon. He over
tired himself yesterday and today he
was only allowed to exercise for half
an hour, which he spent in the garden.
His wound is no worse, but he is suf-
fering from nervousness.

SUPPLIES IN HONG KONG.
Gen Baldomero Aguinaldo Arrives
With a Supply of Treasure

Hong Kong, Aug. 1S.-Gen- Baldo-
nero Aguinaldo, minister of war in
the Filipino cabinet and brother of
President Emilio Aguinaldo, has ar
rived in Hong Kong from Manila, bring
ing with him much treasure, doubtless
to be used in purchasing military sup
plies for the Filipino army.
Gen. AguinaIdo succeeds Lichaneo as
treasurer of the Filipino junta at Hong
Kong. LichaneO now represents Agui-
naldo's government in Manila, and is
understood here to be performing effec-
tive service under the nose of Gen.
Otis.
Surprise is manifest here that the
secretary of war of the insurgent cab
met and brother OF the president should
have been allowed to sail from Manila
by the American authorities.

GEORGIA RACE PROBLEM.
Republican Party Leaders Blamed
For Recent Outrages.

Atlanta, Ga, Aug 18.-A special to
the Constitution from Greenwood, S. c.,
says:
The second day of the Farmers insti-
tute was enlivened by a speech from
Senator B. R. TilIman. At the very be-
ginning of his talk Senator Tillman
pitched into the whitecaps who have
been terrorizing portion of this coun-
ty for the last ten days and whipping
inoffensive negroes The senator called
them white towards and said they were
a disgrace to the county. He thought
if the TolbertS, the Republican party
leaders in this section of the south,
were stirring up the negroes, they
ought to be dealt with.
IF you want to uproot this evil and
kill the snake, go kill the Tolberts, but
don't abuse the poor, innocent black
wretches,'' said the senator in an out
burst.
THE Yankees" said Senator Tillman,
'tare watching us closely, and the eyes
of the whole world are now on the race
problem in the south. They take ad-
vantage of everything of this kind to
abuse the south. They are wanting to
cut down our representation in con-
gress because of our new election laws,
but otherwise there is little bitter feel
ing now between the two sections. This
sort of thing, if continued, will arouse
bad feeling.
why, just look at chat Jewett woman
coming down here and taking away the
Niger pOStmaSter'S family" continued
the senator. "She comes from Boston,
the head and center of all devilment.
The Yankees are ready to take up any
such deviltry as this whitecapping bus
mess, and you people ought to put
stop to it,
Senator TilIman then talked largely
on agricultural affairs, denounced the
war in the Philippines and closed with
some choice invective against newspa-

and fifty cambria needles. and in the
bowels nearly fifty more needles. About
a year ago the woman told an attend
ant she had swallowed several spoons,
but an examination failed to disclose
the presence of any foreign object in
her stomach and her story was regard
ed simply as one of the vagaries of her
disordered mind. The remarkable fea-
ture of the case it that the woman
never appeared to suffer any pain or
have any trouble with her stomach.
The bowls fsthe spoons are supposed
to have been corroded by the acids of
the stomach.
