Columbia Wins Again

New York, Oct. 1.-THE Colunab ia won
the second race today, although it did not
prove such a boat race as the contest Of
yesterday. The boats were off in almost
as good order as the day before and a
COED breeze promised an interesting con-
test. When the boats left the starting
line everything was close and both boats
did the same jockeying for a windward
position. When forty minutes out and
the Columbia in the lead, a spare on the
Shamrock broke, which s badly dis
abled the challenger that she was never
in the race from that time.
Although the British sailors re-rigged
the craft the handicap proved toe much
to ever make up the loss ia time. The
Columbia finished the race winning by
forty minutes.
BY conditions drawn up before the race
it was specified that in case of a mishal
while in a race the damage to the injured
yacht should not call the race off. By this
ruling the Columbia wins the second
race.

A Coed Idea.

The GaZette thinks it would be meet
and proper TO recognize the services Of
all who enlisted to fight Uncle Sans
battles with Spain, by giving them a
suitable medal that they can keep and
show to their children. The boys who
enlisted but were not called upon to go
to the front, are just as much entitled
to recognition as those sent to Manila,
and should by all means be recognized
to that extent at least. Something in
silver about the size of a dollar, con-
nscted with a pin by two or three little
ribbons Of ~sagebrush green, with sill
yer fringe, and the Seal OF the State
on the front side and some suitable in
scription on the back would be appro-
pirate. They would be inexpensive,
but at the same time prove to the boys
that their services were appreciated by
the people Of the commonwealth.

Give 1t to the BOYS

Some months ago the APPEAL opened
a ten cent subscription for the building
of a battle ship to take the place of the
Maine. Some Eastern paper started the
idea and the school chiidren of this city
contributed their dimes and nickels. The
Money was paid in by the children to Mr.
Howe, Principal of the school, and by
him placed in the bank.
He Informs the APPEAL that it is still
there and has never been called for and
no one in this city knows where to send
it. The APPEAL suggests that Mr.. Howe
turn it over to someone connected with
the reception to be given to the Nevada
boys who return from Manila about the
18th.
The State should give them a fitting
reception and this morey had better go
to help them than to lie in the bank with
No one to claim it. Fhe APPEAL feels
certain that none of the donors would
object to this method of dispos sing of the
money.

RetributiOn

James Coghlan, a Grass Valley man,
recently purloined a lantern from an
open sewer trench in Grass Valley-a
lantern that had been hung there by
the sewer contractor to warn pedes-
trians Of the chasm. For this pleas
antry Mr.. Coghlan was fined $50, and
that very night, while going home, he
fell into the open trench at that point
where he had p~urloined the lantern.
He fell about six feet, and the shock
may have brought him to realize why
he was fined the double eagle.

More SpOilt Beef Testimony

Washington, January 23.-The board
Of survey appointed by Secretary AL
ger to pass upon the question of the
proper condemnation of a large guam
tity of beef destined for the troops in
Porto Rico has received from Captain
Barclay H. Warburton, of the Penn
Sylvania Volunteer battalion of artil-
lery, a sworn statement of the cOrdi-
ton of Refrigerated beef on board the
transport Manitoba, which transport
was at Ponce from August 10Th TO 25th.
WarburtCn says:
Il ate of the beef which the trans
port Manitoba brought to Porto Rico.
1t was served to the officers mess on
the United States transport Mississippi,
which brought my command back to
New York. When I say I ate the meat,
l must qualify my statement by say
ing that l tried to eat the meat. 1t
vas so bad that it was impossible. to
swallow it. In my opinion the meat
was not good-nor was it fit for issue.
Il had no idea that this meat had
been subjected to any chemical process,
but believed the beef to have decom-
posed or account of the lack of proper
refrigerating facilities, caused by the
clogging of the machinery used for
that purpose on the Manitoba. / was
informed by Captain Gates, who was
then in command of the Manitoba that
a machinery had been clogged with
sand as a result of our having run
ashore, which necessitated reversing of
the screw which threw sand into the
water pumps"
