Wanted-A Wind.

The first week Of the racing for the
Americas cup ended in the third fail
ure to sail the first race, as the result
Of insufficient wind. 1t was most eXas
perating, and small wonder that our
foreign friends wonder upon what kind
of duck pond the course is laid. 1t
seems strange that October cannot fur
nish the desired breeze off Sandy Hook
and the New Jersey coast. The condi-
tions for racing would be much more
fair and favorable off the New England
coast. and the only. loss in the change
would be to the management of the
New York excursion steamers.
The general public upon both sides Of
the Atlantic is following these races
with absorbing interest. and on the
streets, the trains and wherever men
meet. there is little else talked about
upon the racing days. The attempts
have at least demonstrated that the
yachts are very evenly matched and
that the cup was never in such danger
as at present. Everybody hopes that a
full. fair race may be sailed tomOr-
row. and we shall expect the gallant
Columbia to win 4 decisive victory.

Why Bryan Should Wait.

A Connecticut correspondent Of the
New York World, writing as a friend Of
Bryan, suggests that the Nebraska
statesman be placed on the waiting list
as a matter Of policy by the Democ-
racy. since the presidential plum is not
ripe for him at present. A vast major
ity of the American people Will agree
with this correspondent that Bryan can
best serve his country by stepping
aside and waiting in silence. Put in
cold storage his boom will stand bet

tiun of the Connecticut Bryanite and

only that. but it goes on TO show
what viii happen in the presidential
garden while Bryan is waiting for the
plum TO fan into his hands. Ii is inter

prophet.

Bryan viii so order his life until 1904

Good for the Spanish minister.
Duke de ARGOS. This is his tribute to
Admiral Dewey in a recent interview.
and it places him in noble light:
Admiral Dewey is a brave and
noble man, and for the extraordinary
service he has rendered his country no
honor that can be shown him in return
is too great. He has aroused the adj
miratiOn of the whole world by the
gallantry of his conduct. and he would
be small man. indeed. who could nor
recognize his merit and give free ex-
preston to his admiration for Dewey's
valor." Such message from the rep
resentative Of the vanquished, can only
he uttered BY a large-souled man, and
it will not be forgotten by the Ameri-
can people.
