NEW YORK, October 14.-At sun
rise the sky was overcast, a light haze
rested over the upper bay and a gentle
breeze was blowing from the eastward,
with tendency to work southwark. On
the whole, the prospect for a race be-
tween the Columbia and the Shamrock
for the Americas cup was brighter
than at any time during the week.
The fact that the past six race days
resulted in mo race" or postpone
ments, has had a decidedly discourag-
ing effect on the yachting public, and
it will require decisive race under ia
vorable conditions to reawaken the in
terest in the present contest for the
coveted Americas cup.
The Associated Press observer at Gal
ilee n. j., reported at a. m. that the
wind was from the eastward there, vel
ocity only about one mile with sea
smooth and observation eight miles.
Off Sandy Hook at $50 a. m. there
was scarcely sufficient wind to blow
away the last traces Of the light mist
which had encircled the yachts during
the night The crews of the challenger
and defender could be seen at work
washing down decks, looking over the
running and standing rigging, and per-
forming other necessary work. The
Columbia had her two head sails upon
stops at a. M, and the same sails were
hoisted on the Shamrock.
At a. m. the Highlands Of Navesink
reported the wind about four miles an
hour off shore, and apparently increas-
ing in strength. At 500 the southeast
breeze kept up its four-knot gait. but
did not seem to be able to get beyond
that point.
The most cheerful weather advice of
the morning came from the Associated
Press station at Far Rockaway at $50,
where the observer said the prospects
for a race were very encouraging. A
fresh breeze from the south southeast
about five miles an hour was then blow
ing and increasing rapidly in strength.
Both boats arrived at the lightship
at about 10 o'clock, the Shamrock in
the lead. With the racers was COM
mittee boat, and behind them, about
four or five miles astern, steamed the
Erin.
~ IL " SAOCh was AOt
breeze for the yachts to make pre-
tense of crossing the line
Twelve o'clock came without any i'm,
provement in conditions, although the
shore stations sent word that a breeze
was blowing about six knots an hour
along the coast. At 1904 o'clock Com,
modore J. Pierpont Morgan went
aboard the judges boat in his launch.
He said to the judges: you had bet
ter let the boats get back
The signal indicating that the next
race would be on Monday was next run
up. Then the Shamrock took her tow
boat, the excursion feet started in a
race up the bay. the torpedo boats
rushed by with parting whistle, the
press feet turned homeward and the
seventh attempt to arrive at a conelu-
sion between the international repre-
sentatives was over without decision.

LEXINGTON RACES.

LEXINGTON, Ky. october 1.-THE tai

SCIO. o., October 14.-The glove con-
test at the club here tonight, under
the management of ]. H. McCloskey,
was complete success. About five
hundred spectators saw the bout be-
tween Eddie Gardner, of Wheeling, and
Jack Levy, of Philadelphia. They were
disappointed at the sudden termination
but all think well of Gardner, who will
be big drawing card if he is matched
for contest here in the future. Moon
ey, the we'll known long distance run
ner officiated as referee to the satisfac-
ton of everybody.
Levy put the Kentucky Rosebud to
sleep, and was considered a good
match for Gardner.
After about ten seconds of fiddling
in the first round, Gardner put two
right hand jabs with terrific force on
the pit of the stomach, and Levy went
down. He took eight seconds of the
referees count. When he regained his
feet, Gardner put his right to the
same place. and Levy went down and
out for keeps.

SURGICAL OPERATIONS


Longer Necessary.
1t has long been thought not only
by some physicians, but by people
in general that the common, pain
full and exceedingly annoying
trouble, piles, was practically in
durable by any other means than
surgical operation, and this belief
has been the cause of years of
needless suffering, because OF the
natural dread of surgical opera
tions.
There are many salyes, ONT
ments and similar remedies on the
market which afford some relief
in cases of piles, but the Pyramid
Pile Cure is the only preparation
SO far introduced that can be re-
liably depended upon to cure to stay
cured, every form of itching,
bleeding or protruding piles.
Mrs. NJ. C. Huxley, OF sol Mis-
sissippi street, Indianapolis, was
told by her physician that nothing
but a surgical operation, costing
between seven and eight hundred
dollars, could cure her, as she had
suffered for Is years, yet even in
such case as hers the Pyramid
Pile Cure accomplished a complete
cure. She says: Il knew an oper-
alton would be death to me and
tried the Pyramid with very little
hope and it is not to be wondered
at that l am so enthusiastic in its
praise"
Major Dean, of Columbus, Ohio,
says he suffered for 40 years from
piles and 20 years from itching
piles and in his case two packages
of the Pyramid cured him.
Mr.. d. e. Reed, of South Lyons,
Mich, says I would not take $500
and be placed back where l was
before | used the Pyramid Pile
Cure. I suffered for years and it is
now eighteen months since l used
it and not the slightest trace of
the trouble has returned
The Pyramid Pile Cure is sold by
nearly all druggists at so cents and
81 per package and as it contains
no opium, cocaine or other poison
GUS drug can be used with perfect
safety.
No one need suffer from piles in
any form who will give this ex-
cellent remedy a trial. Made by
the Pyramid Drug Co., Marshall,
Mich. Any druggist can get it for
you.

An Up-to-Date Chinese Weapon.

In connection with the order of the
Empress to place the army on war
footing so as to drive out the German
and italian invaders it is interesting
to know that an ingenious Chinese
military man has recently invented a
weapon which the mandarins at Pekin
think will cause terror in the hearts
of the invaders, and an order has been
issued for the manufacture of large
supply to be distributed throughout
the army. Accordingto a description
that appears in the Chinese papers
this terrible weapon is combination
of spear and shovel. At one end of
pole there is large, sharp pike,
such as knights of medieval times
used to carry. At the other end there
is shovel, or spade, with a blade
about eight inches wide, which can be
used both as an intrenching tool and
as a weapon. 1t is especially handy
in beheading prisoners, and all the
Chinese soldier has to do is to sti ck
the pike at one end of his pole
through the body of his enemy, and
turn around and cut off the head with
the shovel. Instead of sending the
inventor of this terrible weapon to The
Hague to represent China at the peace
conference, the Empress Dowager re.
warded him with button of the sec.
ond class.

COPY THAT WAS FATAL.
The Tramp Printer Couldn't Read 1t So
He Interpolated q Protest.

Speaking of handwriting, said an
old newspaper man to Representative
of the New Orleans Times Democrat,
"the worst in the profession since the
Greeley myth was that of Colonel J.
F. Barton. The Colonel was a South
ern man; he died in Alabama in '97,
and a dozen years ago he was famous
throughout the Middle West as an
editorial writer of great power and
versatility. The queer thing about
him was that his normal penmans1ip
looked almost like copper plata
beautiful flowing script, but let him
get excited or hurried, and it double
discounted the chicken tracks on
Cleopatra's needle.
fThere used to be o funny story
about him, current among printers,
and I'll tell it for what it is worth.
One night, according to the yarn,
tramp printer drifted into Western
Office where the Colonel was in charge
and applied for job The foreman
put him to work, and he pegged along
all right until just before the hour for
going to press, when Barton sent in a
hurry-up editorial based on a late
news telegram.
Nearly all the printers had left,
so the new man got piece of the
copy, a page from about the middle.
He carried it to his case, looked at it
again, and finally put it in position be-
fore him and began to snatch up
type. Read that in your sticks'
yelled the foreman, I'VE amt got time
for proofsp And when the new man
carried his matter over it was dumped
into the forms without further cere-
mony.
"What he lad set up ran about like
this: The iliscreant who wrote the
copy I have before me is responsible
for my fate. No human being can
read it. He cannot read it himself.
Tonight L shall jump freight, and.
as I am somewhat shaky from recent
iags, will probably fall off and be
killed. My blood be on his head
This remarkable paragraph. appearing
without rhyme or reason in the middle
of Barton's brilliant editorial, aston
ished the readers of the paper next
morning. When the Colonel recovered
himself sufficiently to get club and
rush down to the office the tramp had
vanished"
