CAN'T KEEP IT UP.
CAN'T DECEIVE AUGUSTA PEOPLE
VERY LONG-TUEY
LEARN QUICKLY.

1t is sometimes an easy matter to
fool the public, but you can't keep il up
very long. They are sure to find YOU
out: and every time a man is fooled
another skeptic is made. We are nat
urally skeptical when reading q pub
lished statement given by some stran-
ger residing In a far-away place. but
the circumstances are entirely different
when home endorsement is presented.
The testimony of local citizens renders
deceit impossible. 1t is so easy for
you to investigate. Read this case:

Not Won BY Drifting Matches.

If drifting matches had been al
lowed to settle the fate of the
Americas cup it would have been car
ried home by Sir Thomas, two years
ago. But the five and half hour tim ?
limit has wisely been established as a
bar to that sort of a victory. Some Of
the chicken hearted friends of III >
Columbia have been very blue since
Tuesdays race because the Shamrock
had 4 half mile lead when the race
was declared off. These drif / g
fiukes do not count. Only one race
has been sailed and the Columbia was
a winner. Confidence in the gallant
defender will be strengthened by
glance back at the 1899 races.
The first race of the Columbia
against the Shamrock l. was sailed
two years ago today in just sucl
light northeast wind as that of Tues
dav. The Shamrock walked the mir
rored water like Il ghost. On the wind
ward work of the return she got fairy
ahead of the heavier Yankee and held
the advantage when time was
called. four miles from the finish.
Despondent New York instantly pre-
pared to hand the cup over To SIR
Thomas Upton. on oct. second
attempt to make Il race in tickle
breezes resulted in second failure.
But once more the Scotch spectre Won
first place in the light air and held il
when the time limit ran cut ard the
race was abandoned, with the ma, k
boat three miles away. Again. en-
oct. :. the third trial resulted in
another luke. with the Shamrock
ahead when the yachts gave up tn.
contest. In three successive drifting
matches the Briton had shown herself
the better boat. The courage Of the
landlubbers. at least, had g":e down
10 zero.
But on oct. 10, for the FIST time, the
rivals met in real breeze, and the
Columbia fairly and squarely beat the
Shamrock by ten minutes. The next
day saw a better breeze. 1t was. in
fact. too much for British stays and
spars. The Shamrock lost her topmast
oversize and withdrew. BY the terms
of the agreement as to accidents. the
Columbia went on, finished alone and
won the thirty mile race in three hours
and q minutes. Oct. 10 there was
another fluke On Oct. 90 there came
strong wind from north by east, and
it brought a splendid race in the quick
tine of two hours and 81 minutes. The
Columbia won by more than six min
utes. Sir Thomas Upton acknowledged
that in everything but drifting the
Yankee sloop was superior to his
Shamrock. 1t is the same gallant old
Columbia, this year. and Shamrock III
has long and dangerous course to
sail before the cup is lifted. \ Yankee
victory is due, today.
