NEW YORK, Oct. 13.-The winds asleep
in their caverns and a coverlet of white
fog drawn over the bosom of the drowsy
ocean to-day heightened the unprece-
dented record of flukes in the cup con-
test to six. AS on Tuesday, the yachts
did not leave their anchorage inside
Sandy Hook. 1t was useless TO make an
other attempt in such weather, so at the
hour set for the start the regatta COM
mittee boat poked out to sea through the
dense bank of vapor and announced to
the group of vessels assembled about the
lightship the same monotonous story that
there would be no race to-day.
Everybody is thoroughly disgusted, The
patience Of the public is almost exhaust
ed. From $4,000 persons who went out on
the first day the crowds have dwindled
until it is perfectly safe to say that less
than 5000 persons were atioat to-day
The outlook was so gloomy from
money-making standpoint that some of

LAKE.

We have some very smart young
men in Lake and they know it, and
when they do a trick they are sc
fearful that the world won't find il
out that they go and tell it them
selves, and thereby get into trouble.
Irwin Richards has patch of pota-
toes on the farm OF Jacob Rudy and
in order to reach the field in the
shortest time he goes through the
woods of the Hiram Richards estate,
which brings him directly there.
Last week he drove a horse and
buggy through the woods and left
them there while he went to pulling
weeds. When he undertook to 90
home he found the buggy wedged in
between two hickory saplings, and
as the horse had pulled hard to go
further on it was impossible to get
the vehicle out without the aid of an
axe. Irve therefore unhitched
and went home without it,
intending the next morning
to release the vehicle, but when he
arrived at the spot he could find no
buggy to cut out. After a long
search he found it near a pond under
big pile of brush. The boys in order
to cover it more easily, had smashed
down the top and ruined it. Rich
ards said not word, thinking that
every thing comes to one who waits
until finally he heard of the trick
and traced it to three young men ,one
of whom was hired to Irve's father,
and the others to Hickman and
Wolf, and now the boys must pay
the fiddler or go to jail.
Mr.. Charles Palmer once ran Il
threshing machine and manipulated
traction engine and as Will Raber
was short an engine, Charley very
kindly agreed to go with him day
or two until the proprietor could en-
gage one.
On going down a steep hill from
John Werstler's new farm the engi-
neer lost his nerve and let the engine
run wild when it took to the side of
the road and converted itself into a
steam plow, and the way the sod
flew was a revelation. 1t finally
knocked down Sam Rudy's fence and
got stranded among the rails. Pal
mer thought if he could only get the
thing on rail fence he could make
famous as rail road engi-
neer but it wouldn't work worth a
cent; but Charles has pluck without
stint and it wouldn't surprise anyone
to see him on one of these days on
the top of his engine sailing along a
worm fence at the rate of mile a

day + 1rfunc.

Not many years ago a famons whist
game was played at Sudbury, Vt, two
of the sitters in being General Double
day and Henry DateT of the well known
arm of Dater, Thompson & Co. 1t was
something like ) or 10 cents corner;
so you see it was easy for man to lose
as much as 81. 80 in an afternoon. Play
began after the Sudbury dinner hour,
half past 1, and lasted until teatime.
The old roosters became so wrapped up
in the game that nothing short of an
earthquake could have disturbed them.
Brokers in New York could do nothing
to shake the interest.
The game was played at the time of
the historic Hannibal and ST. Joe cor
ner, engineered by Kennedy, Hutchin-
son & Co., in the interest of their client
John Duff of Boston. Doubleday was
selling the stock short through Van
Schaick & Co., and at quarter to 2 ON
the eventful day he received telegram
from his brokers advising him of the
situation. The game was stopped just
long enough for him to read it and lay
it aside. In 30 minutes a second dis
patch arrived, was read and cast aside
Doubleday was winning at the rate Of
35 cents an hour. What did he care
about Hannibal and st. Joe? Later in
the afternoon d third summons came
from Van Schaick & Co, and at
O'Clock fourth Then Doubleday arose
and remarked: .sGentlemen. l have en-
joyed the game. Ny winnings are ex-
actly $1.65. 1 must say good afternoon,
as it is necessary for me to take the first
train for New York" The next morn
ing his brokers informed him that he
could settle for 100000. At the time
the first telegram was sent he could
have settled for $50, 900, at the time of
tho seaona for &5n. 600. the third for
S75, 600. He had ample warning, but
in the thick of the Sudbury game of
whist he believed the rise was only
