Mr.. Iselin said was the cause of all the
trouble, was not in just the position to
properly support the top-mast, which

fashion, instead of being stepped for
ward of it. The top-mast shroud leads
upward through the spreaders 10 the
head of the top-mast, and although the
crew of the Columbia swayed the top
mast forward as much as possible for
today's race. the port spreader was not
able to stand the strain.
The expense OF the repairing of the
Columbia will be heavy, and although
most of the wire shrouds and stays can
be used again, they will necessarily
have to undergo a severe test as to
their strength, for the wrenching they
received today may have caused them
to be worthless. The hull of the boat
was not seriously damaged. the only
perceptible injury being a large dent
in one of the plates on the starboard
side just abaft the mast. cut by either
the blocks or spars striking it. The
damaged plate can easily be bent into
shape, and, being so far above the wa
ter line, cannot interfere seriously with
the speed of the boat,

PLANS OF FOOTBALL MEN
PIG SKIN TOSSERS ALREADY
TALK OF COMING SEASON.
Y. NJ. C. A. Eleven Starts Out With
Strong Front-Reading' Bingham
Team-About the Others.

Now that interest in baseball is
dying out the local athletes are begin
ming to lay their plans for the coming
football season. Thus far nothing has
been done in the shape of active work,
but there has been no end of talk.
The Y. NJ. c. a. eleven will start out
with excellent prospects. OF last
years team nearly all are in the city
save Wilson, Kellar and Fletcher. the
Deadwood triumvirate. Howard, Dyk-
man, the Tarpey boys, Cross, Allen,
Augustus and Howell are all in town
and eager to play. Sam Porter is
back from the army and will again
be in the game and there are several
of the old E,lks, including Walter Scare
and Deming who intend to ally them
selves with the Christians.
At the university Hyde, the famous
Provo man. will this year be student
and with Anderson and Trip, the
varsity team starts with a full set of
backs. That was where il was weak
last year and this season ought to see
a strong team wearing the red and
white. They ought to make it warm
for the champion Christians.
But the Y NJ. c. AS most formidable
rival will come from out of town. Up
at Bingham W. II. Reading formerly
famous as end rush of the Christians
has been getting up football team.
There are many old college players in'
the camp and they have been quietly
the situation and have come
to the conclusion that Bingham can
put out a team of husky miners that
will make things interesting for any
eleven in the state.
Both the High school and AlLaHal-
lows college will have strong teams
this fall and the old rivalry between
the two institutions will make their
games about the most interesting of
the year.
Nearly all of the games this year will
probably be played on Walker field. !
The Accommodations for witnessing the |
games there will be excellent, now |
that the grandstand is to be moved to |
the side of the field and the crowds |
viii doubtless go there in preference |

Yes"

Are they skilled miners?"
Not fully skilled. and they generally
get lower wages till they become pro-
ficient."

state?"
None that I know of-nothing per-
| manent. They lack the support of the
| miners themselves
As to Labor Unions.
''Why is there no organization here
when they are so thoroughly organized
in other states?''
MANY attempts have been made TO
institute unions which have failed. and
my belief is that unions are generally
looked upon in this light: That they
are promoted by parties working in
their own interests more than for the
interests of miners as class There is
class of men who devote their time
TO establishing unions for the purpose
of securing offices at a salary above the
miners wages-in other words. they
are promoted by men who live by their

tent"
Would a large amount of money in
vested in Utah yield as big a revenue
as if made in Colorado or Idaho?"
1T would yield just as much.
Are operators here as able to pay
as good wages as they are in Colorado,
for instance?"
Yes; owing to the conditions of the
properties themselves, of course"
