lumbtn's Main Boom Breaks AIer
Crossing the Finishing Line.
Newport, r. l., July 1.-The Consti-
tuition was defeated by the Columbia
to-day by the small margin of forty
eight seconds In the first real race IN
which the new Herreshoff yacht has
participated Although the contest
from start to finish was close and at
times exciting in the opinion of ma
jority of yachtsmen in Newport to-
night the Constitution lost through
misfortune. However, the result of to-
days contest Is far from conclusive,
and there is still much to be decided as
to the relative merits of the two racers.
The mishap to the new boat came
about an hour after the start. While
the boats were on the second long tack
to windward, the clew of the jib of the
new boat was carried away ana for
some ten minutes she was without the
use of that sail. This accident set the
Constitution back practically a mile,
but In spite of it she was able to get
within two minutes of the Columbia
at the turn and cut this lead down
more than half on the run home. The
Columbia did not escape without accl-
dent, to, for Immediately after cross
ing the finish line, in gybing over the
big mainsail, her main boom buckled
and she had to be towed to the city
1t will be necessary to sling new
spar before the Columbia can race
again. but it Is expected that 1T will be
in place for race Wednesday.
The event of to-day was the first of
a series of special races arranged by
the New York Yacht club for the pur-
pose of bringing the two yachts togeth-
er, and it was under the auspices of

The dissatisfied Athletic Girl.


AS Alexander sighed for more worlds
to conquer and the good housekeeper
longs for a new animal to vary the
eternal round of beef, mutton, veal and
pork, SO just now does the athletic girl
wish with all her heart that brand
new game would come to the fore
which might arouse her tagging inter
est and in which she might hope to gain
new laurels. She has taken up each
one with enthusiasm-tennis, golf and
squash-and is just little tired of all
of them. Polo, with its "cross saddle"
possibilities in the near future, is by
far the most tempting, but very few
young women can command the num-
Der of mounts necessary to play such
an expensive game, and although ten
mis- has shown healthy revival dur
Ing the last summer it is something
like turning out and retrimming old
gowns to make them look like new to
take up game that has once been
abandoned. Although all over the coun.
try golf may be said to be more popu-
lar than ever, it is curious to see how
completely it has been dropped at the
very places where it first gained its
popularity. There the costly clubhouses,
with widespreading links, are almost
deserted by the fashionable set, who,
with their usual Inconsistency, suddenly
given up without rhyme or reason a
game for which they expressed a
twelvemonth ago the greatest enthusi-
ASm.

rive That Were Served In DeImon-
Ices Old Place In New York.
Probably the most expensive dinner
ever given at Delmonico's old restau-
rant, on Fourteenth street, New York,
was that given by Mr.. Morton Peto to
the tea and coffee merchants of New
York, 200 in number. 1t cost $4,000.
The rarest wines and the most elab-
crate decorations were mere incidents.
The menu cards were of gold, and the
guests sat on silk cushions on which
their names were embroidered. In the
center of the table was miniature
lake in which swan swans taken from
Central park. Clara Louise Kellogg re
ceived $1,000 for singing two songs at
this feast and present besides of a
diamond bracelet The salon was
smOthered in flowers.
Another dinner given at one Of the
Delmonico establishments for ten peo-
enough to be classical. The walters,
five of them, were dressed as sailors.
The host was yachtsman, and he
bought the walters clothes. The guests
drank, or, rather tasted, every vinted
liquor that ever has been brought to
America. They finished with a pousse
cafe made of eleven nqueurs. Before
each plate sat cut glass basin about
twenty inches in diameter and four
inches deep. Each was nearly filed
with water perfumed with altar of
roses, on the surface of which foated
half open pond lilies. In the basin a
perfect model of the yacht owned by
the host was placed. 1t was cut in
red cedar wood, with cabin, rail, wheel
for steering, brasswork, such as be-
laying pins and binnacles, manropes
worked and trimmed with sailor knots,
scraped pine masts and booms, rigging
of silken cords colored as it would be
in the original, and sails Of satin.

But 1t Cost Him That to Get His
Clothes Out of Pawn.

Clothes Out of Pawn.
Paderewski's first really important
engagement as pianist was in Paris
long after the death of his beloved
wife. He was engaged to play in the
drawing room of lady famous for
her musicales, and his fee, which SEEM
ed to him enormous, was 500. He man
aged to persuade the humane agent to
pay him in advance, and when Pade-
rewski had redeemed his dress suit
from pawn and paid for shoes, gloves,
tie and other essentials he had no mon
ey left for cab hire, so he was forced
to walk to the scene of his engagement.
The music loving audience inspired
him. He played with feeling passion
and mastery of his instrument as new
er before. His success was instant and
unmistakable. The poor player had
suddenly become the lion of the hour,
his dream had become a reality, and
fame and fortune We're assured him.
AT last after disengaging himself
from his admirers, he turned to leave,
when his hostess, remembering with
regret the smallness of the fee for so
marvellous a performance, offered him
her carriage for his return home But
Paderewski's pride came to the rescue.
In his courteous yet reserved way he
made a formal bow, and saying, mo.
