tered 70 knots, while the sea was quite
smooth. s
Extra careful inspection was given the
rigging Of both yachts this morning, for
the breeze promised to strain every inch
of it to the limit.
Shortly after y O'Clock the tugs hitched
on, and the racers started for the light
ship. At 10 o'clock Columbia, Shamrock
and the committee boat arrived at the
lightship, and preparations were made
for the start. The wind had flattened a
little when tow-lines were cast off. but
It was still strong enough to worry the
smaller craft.
At 1855 the warning gun was fred,
and the fight between the Shippers for
pO6ltlOn began.
At IL the starting gun was fred. Sham
rock went over the line first, the official
time of the start being: Shamrock.
ii 90 :43; Columbia, Al Ol AZ. With lee
rails awash for the first time, the yachts
bore away for the first mark. Shamrock
held the lead. Itwas rattling race, and
the excitement was intense. The boats
looted like race horses, cotting the water
from their bows in cascades.
AT III :46 they neared the first mark,
Shamrock going around first at IL 81 :O6
Columbia at 1l:52:17. As they tore
along for the second mark, Columbia
cut down the challenger's lead, though
the Englishman was still leading by over
half minute.
Shamrock went around the second
mark at IL :46, Columbia IS seconds later.
Then began the grand fight. Columbia
footed along ata terrible clip, and though
Shamrock was going like the wind, the
American gradually cut down the lead.
AT O'Clock Columbia had caught Lip
toms boat, and few minutes later she
showed her nose ahead. The crowds on
shore began bowling like lunatics.
Columbia crossed the finishing line at
2 :l5 :05, Shamrock at 2:16 :32. Thus Co
lumbia won the race by minute "a sec
onds actual time, to which must be add
ed to her credit. 43 seconds handicap al
lowance, making her winner ty minutes
and 10 seconds.
1t is conceded by competent Judges
that Shamrock put up wonderful race,
but that she was clearly out-pOinted by
Capt. Barr at the wheel.
The race was spectacular from start to
finish. The excitement among the spec
tators was intense, and never for q mo-
ment relaxed. The enthusiasm among
the Americans when Columbia dashed
across the finishing line minutes and "a
seconds in advance OF her rival by actual
racing time, was tremendous, and a
mighty tumult of applause went up.

Irving Telephones.

Chicago, Oct. TESTS to determine
the value of operating trains by tele-
phone and doing other service now per-
formed by the telegraph, are being made
by officers of the Santa Fe system, says
The Chronicle. The tests cever short
distances and are for the purpose OF de-
monstrating to just what extent the tele-
phone may be used in railroad work
either as substitute in many ways for
the telegraph or as a supplement to it.

STRONG TESTIMONY.


l Washington, d. c., Oct. 3.-Befofe tht
Schley trial opened this morning, Mr.
Raynor, counsel for the applicant, stated
| II as his belief that in view Of the ruling
of the court on the subject, Admiral
Sampson would not be brought into the
case. Schley's counsel, however. was
pleased with the fact that he had gotten
into the record the testimony Of the wit.
ness who said that Sampson arrived an
hour and five minutes after the Colon
had surrendered. -
Capt. Sigsbee resumed the stand to
correct his testimony.
Lieut.. Doyle's direct examination was
continued. He said the Brooklyn was in
all the bombardments in June. The
Spanish did not remain at their guns,
but as they withdrew, they took snap
shots at the Brooklyn. He saw Schley
under fire during the commandments and
battle on July 8.
Lieut.. DOYLE also resumed the stand
today. He testified, in answer to ques-
tion, that Schley before and after the bat
tie was as self-possessed as any one could
be under these circumstances.
Doyle gave a thrilling recital of the
BroOklyn's part in the battle. He told of
how the Brooklyn kept up constant fire
on the Viscaya and Teresa, and latter
those vessels had been put out of action)
eff the chase after the Colon.
His story gave no indication of alleged
coWardico on Schley's part
Doyle admitted that in writing the log
of the Brooklyn he had said the ship
turned to westward when the battle be-
gun, whereas the Brooklyn in fact made
her loop eastward. He testified further
that he had made this mistake through
being busy at the guns, but he corrected
the log when Commander Sharp called
his attention to the error.

Nanaimo, B. c., Oct. 5.-The reports
that the fire had been smothered at Ex-
tension were premature. Although the
officials are not giving out much infor-
nation it is now known that twice yes

the entrances, and that this happened
again today. The situation Is still one
Of great anxiety. A similar explosion on

It may occur 1T any time. All attempts

Boston, Oct. 5.-Although Gov. Odell,

Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mether and
grandmothers never thought Of
using anything else for indigestion
or biliousness. Doctors were scarce
and they seldom heard of appen-
dicitis, nervous prostratien or heart
failure, etc. They used August
Flower to cleanse out the system
and stop fermentation Of undi-
gested food, regulate the action of
the liver, stimulate the nervous and
organic action of the system, and
that is all they took when feeling
dull and bad with headaches and
other aches. You only need q few
doses of Green's August Flower, in
liquid form, to make you satisfied
there is nothing serious the matter
with you. Get Green's Prize Alma

o A G Entertains.

Through the courtesy of the
officials OF the G. & F., the Off
eials of the State Grange came
over from Albany, Wednesday
morning, arriving at nine o'clock.
All of the officers of the grange,
as well as representatives of the
various agricultural and horticu1-
tural papers, were III attendance.
Many other visitors embraced
this opportunity to visit the col
lege under conditions SO favor-
able. The college Of this city,
being an agricultural institution,
is very near the hearts who take
an interest in grange matters
and it is In every way worthy Of
their attention and interest.
On arriving at the o A c the
visitors were met by a commit
tee and escorted about the
grounds and through all Of the
buildings. They we're shown
the various recitation rooms, the
library, museum, printing Office,
and given an insight to the many
scientific and mechanical devices
that are utilized at this great
agricultural college for the fur
theranee ofeducation and expert
mental research. In many things
the visitors were surprised, es-
pecially at the magRitude OF the
institution.
In the way of entertainment
the class in physical culture,
consisting of young ladies and
gentlemen, gave an athletic
drill which was highly pleasing.
The cadet battalion appeared on
dress parade and went through
a series of military drills, during
which the cannon doomed
forth a hearty welcome. It was
a memorable occasion and the
visitors, as well as the faculty
and students, were well pleased.
The visitors departed on the reg
ular 1920 train.

A Jnst Tribute.

The weather was ideal on Decera.
tion Day. The city was draped
with flags and bunting and was as
gala as though the occasion were
the Fourth of July. Early morn
ing parties visited the cemeteries
and when the set program of the
afternoon occurred in these cities Of
the dead, the air was laden with
sweet perfume, and beautiful flowers
nodded a welcome.
The evening program, held in the
NJ. E. church, was impressive and
largely attended. The principal
feature was the address by Col. Phil.
lips. Near the close of his remarks
Col. Phillips paid this just tribute
to the patriotic women Of '61:
"What of the no less patriotic
women? History makes scant re-
cord OF their sacrifices, yet wives
looking at their helpless children,
repressed their tears and bads hus-
bands go; proud mothers gave their
jewels, their noble, manly boys, with
the Injunction to die rather than
dishonor the name they bore; gen
tie, loving sisters gave their beloved
brothers; plighted maidens gave
their chosen lovers TO fill the ranks
Of war. Then followed weeks and
months Of agonizing suspense. We
fought battles, sometimes; they, all
the time. After one Of ours, how
anxiously they scanned the CHASTITY
list of killed and wounded to learn
if it bora the name Of their loved
onel All! thereit is among the miss
ing; but whether killed, or wounded
and prisoner no one knew. Then
came months, often heightened into
years, of alternate hope and despair.
His comrades returned, but he
marched not with them. The war
ended, but he came not. He was
ameng the missing,-still and forever
missing. Oh, merciful Godl How
many other graves filed by broken
hearts were digged by those un-
known, unmarked soldier gravesl
"Forever cherished be the men,
ory of the loyal, true-hearted
women of the North, who laid
priceless gifts upon the altar of sac.

served"

An Exciting Time.

Something over year ago ID. S
Adams, who resides in Jobs ad
fdition, traded horses with George
A. Robinson. The horse thai
Mr.. Adams received in the trans.
fer was a good animal to pull,
but one had to be careful in
handling it, and if twas idle for
any length of time it had to be
broken over again. During the
past winter Mr.. Adams had nc
use for his team and gave them
to friend to work for their keep.
A couple Of months ago the team
was returned to the owner, and
have stood in the stable since
until Tuesday.
As Mr.. Adams would soon
have to use them, he concluded
that it was about time 60 break
his unrnly horse, and with his
son Norton's assistance, the team
was hitched to weed wagon
with a seat about six feet from
the ground. Before starting out,
the precaution Of tying a rope
around the horses jaw had been
taken. When Mr.. Adems climb.
ed onto his seat Norton handed
him the reins, bat before he Sc
cured a firm hold of them, the
team helted. Away they went
like all possessed, headed north,
with Mr.. Adams tugging frantic
ally at the reins. Across the road
fromtwhere the start was made, is
a small ditch. The runaways
missed the bridge, and the fore
wheels went into the ditch, let.
ting the tongue fall. The tongue
broke and ran into the ground,
and the team got loose from the
wagon. The check. to progress
was SO sudden that Mr.. Adams
was hurled into space and fell
some distance, striking on his
side. For a wonder he was only
slightly bruised. The team then
ran east to Mr.. Blakeslee's,
where the vicious horse jumped
the fence, throwing the other
animal. This brought them
to a standstill, one horse stand
ing on one side of the fence,
while the other was down on the
opposite side and could not get up.
Mrs. Adams witnessed the run.
away up to the time thai Mr..
Adams was thrown from the
wagon. She was certain that
her husband was killed, and
came near dying from fright. It
was sometime before she was
Gained and the effects of her. at
tack of hysteria subsided. Taken
altogether, it was fortunate
ending to what came near being
a most disastrous affair. Mr..
Adams no longer owns this un-
ruly anilnal-he traded it off the
same day.
