New York, July 23.-Richard Croker is
life saver. He will neither admit nor
deny his connection with the incident
AS the story goes, Mr.. Croker and his
friend and business partner, Peter f.
Meyer, paid visit on Friday to Law
renee Delmour at City Island. The day
was warm, and bath in the salt water
was very inviting. Messrs. Croker and
Meyer proceeded to battle. They had
been in the water for few minutes when
Mr.. Meyer was seized with cramps. He
shouted to Mr.. Croker, who FASTENED to
his side. Mr.. Meyer was helpless, hut
Mr.. Croker got him to the surface with
out much difficulty and started for the
shore. 1t was no easy task, because Mr..
Croker is suffering from an injured leg,
but he fought manfully and soon had Mr..
Meyer out of danger.

Popularity of Athletics.

1t is an interesting evidence of the
enduring popularity and importance of
athletics, says an exchange, that the
ancient Olympian games which delight
ed the Greeks should find their counter
part now in the international athletic
which began in Paris recently and are
still progressing. The competitors come
from all parts of the world, and so the
world at large is watching the outcome
In the end the performances of the
modern young men in Paris will not be
much unlike those of the ancient ath-
letes. Strength, wind and endurance,
unaided by any device of modern in
vention, must determine the result, as
they did in the original Olympian
games. 1t would be highly interesting,
If possible, to secure figures at this time
showing how tho athletes in Paris
would compare with those OF ancient
Greece.
Up to date the Americans have won
nearly three-fourths OF the prizes,
showing the best results of outdoor
sports and training in the gymnasium.
Truly, we can afford to be considered a
money-making people if we are also a
nation OF athletics.

TOWNE WON'T WITHDRAW.
Populists to Keep Him on Their
Ticket With Bryan.

Lincoln, Neb., July 23-The Populsts
say that Towne will not withdraw as the
vice presidential candidate of that party.
The official announcement has not yet
been made. but it probably will be as
soon as the national committee meets,
some time during the week. When
Towne left here ten days ago, he was
very frank in his statement that he did
not wish to remain as n candidate, but
was willing to abide by the Judgment of
the party leaders.
AT that time Chairman Jones was
strongly of the opinion that Towne was
taking the right course, and in this opin-
ion he was backed up by the other mem
bers of the executive committee here
Mr.. Towne said he would do what Mr.
Bryan said. Mr.. Bryan would not say,
and it was finally determined to await
The state conventions of the fusion Popu-
lists and the middle of the road Popu-
lists. The sentiment in the former was
strongly against substituting Stevenson
for Towne, and the attendance at. the
latter demonstrated an alarming anti
fusion strength.
The fact was laid before the Demo-
cratic national committee that IL Towne
was withdrawn and Stevenson substi-
tuted Bryan might lose the 30 electoral
votes represented by Nebraska, Kansas
and the two Dakotas. In each of these
the Populists are numerically stronger
than the Democrats, and the dsaffection
over the substitution of an old line Dem
ocrat and the one time running mate of
Grover Cleveland promised to be of such
proportions as to endanger the electoral
ticket. The Democrats have finally ac-
knowledged the force of the arguments,
and as II result they have expressed
willingness to refer the entire matter to
the Populists, with power to act and to
do in each state as they advise
In Nebraska there are four Populists,
three Democrats and Silver Republican
On the fusion electoral ticket. They were
not instructed, but four will be for
Towne and four for Stevenson. A SINH
lar division will be agreed upon in the
other states.
Acting National Chairman Edmsten of
the Populists said last night that. while
1t was true that there was no hope of
electing Towne, yet good politics and
good faith demanded his retention on the
ticket. There was a principle involved
that demanded recognition, and the mat
ter of office was entirely secondary. The
Populists were just as strong and en-
thusiastic for Bryan, he added, as the
Democrats, but they wanted representa-
tion and recognition, and with such sim
pie means at hand to meet the situation
it would he foolish for the Democrats to
run the danger of sacrificing electoral
votes for Bryan.

Let the Owls Blink.

A Russian cruiser has been built in
Cramps shlpyard, but has not been for
mally accepted by Russia. Itis rumored
that Russia has declared or is about to
declare war against China. BY diplo-
matte fiction the United States and
China, whose soldiers are killing each
other diligently in China, are not at war
but are on terms of the most cordial
friendiness.
Russia needs and probably intends to
use the new cruiser in protecting Ameri-
can as well as her own interests in
Chinese ports, yet some able sea lawyer,
having nothing rational to occupy his
mind, raises the point that the Variag
may be contraband of war and that it
would be an unfrendly act to permit
Russia to take her from an American
port for use against our amiable friends,
the Boxers, the regularly enlisted mur-
derers of China.
We are told that diplomatic circles
in Washington are grayely speculating
over the outcome of this curious situa-
tion." So long as the diplomatic owls
confne their activities in the matter to
grave speculation" and solemn blink
ing, no harm will be done, but if they
go further and attempt to hinder the
Russians in taking the Variag away it
is to be hoped that the officials of the
American government may have suf-
fcient common sense to twist their
necks, fguratively, and stop their hoot-
ing.

1t is neither necessary nor honest to
do any diplomatic lodging to permit
Russia to take the Variag whenever she
wants to. A fig for our "friendly rela-
tions" with the lunatic government of
China. If China has the impudence to
invoke the international law that she
herself is violating outrageouSly every
