Recent trials of the racing yachts ind-
cate thatSir Thomas Upton has a fair
chance of lifting the cup this year.
The Constitution has shown that she is
little if any better than the old Columbia,
and Sir Thomas's boat is certainly bet
ter one than that with which he raced
two years ago. If the Americas cup is
TO go back to England, it is probable
that Upton would be the unanimous
choice of the people of this country to
carry it back. In one way and another
the conduct of the New Yorl; Yacht club
in regard to the admission of competitors
for the defense of the cup has prejudiced
many against the club; so il the cup Is
lost the belief will grow that a want of
liberality on the clubs part is responsible
for the catastrophe.

Hay Fever News From the West

The annual hay-fever season is on.
and from the West comes a curious re-
port touching the source of this malady,
which is still one of the riddles of
medical science.
From Kansas, South Dakota, Iowa
and Missouri wherever the heat and
drought were severy felt, hundreds of
the hay-fever sufferers of former years
are reported to be this year unaffected.
The physicians of St. Paul. Mimi,
which is city of refuge for southwest
ern hay-fever patients, report great
falling of in the number of them from
the districts affected by the long season
of whitening heat. And the deduction
they are inclined TO draw is that
wherever the drought was severe enough
to destroy the ragweed and golden rod
before they could reach maturity and
scatter their pollen on the air, the
supply of hay fever was, so to speak,
turned Oft at the meter.
This is an old theory of the origin of
this tormenting disease of the nose and
respiratory organs. The fact that tells
most strongly against it is that thous-
ands of people who live all through
July and August in cities, far from the
green and yellow scenes where the rag
weed and the golden-rod grow, never
the-less sneeze and wheeze and grow
weary on the rack of hay fever. These
reports from the droughty West are
nevertheless worthy of medical inves-
tigatiOn.

The renewed activity of Vermont's
Humane Society officers is matter for
congratulaton. Reports of arrests and
fines are of frequent occurrence in the
press, and should have salutary effect
on the human brutes who maltreat their
horses and torture other domestic
animals. Self-interest should prompt
the kindly treatment of animals, for
proper care will increase their value but
where ignorance brings about neglect
and violence, the law should interfere.

4 Product of Good Breeding.
Rutland Herald.

Cresceus, the fleetest trotter In the
world, is the product of good breeding
and good training. He has a bad dis
position and has had several physical
ailments, which were not especially in
his favor as possible record breaker.
When a yearling he had an attack of
epizootic. He rubbed off the blister over
the half-door of his stall and sawed his
neck so that his windpipe was exposed.
Ketchum ordered him killed, but the
trainer did not dispatch him and he i'm
proved so rapidly that he was given
another chance for his life. Cresceus
has been lame several times in con-
sequence of curb on the hind leg. As
to Cresceus's disposition, a horseman
says: Robert McGregor, the sire of
Cresceus, and one of the greatest race
horse trotters of his day, was danger
GUS animal, in or out of the barn, and
after being retired to the stud 1t was
worth mans life to go into the stall
with him. Maj. Edssll, the sire of
McGregor, was likewise savage, and
Cresceus, with that sort of sire and
grandsire, could not be expected to be
amiabe. And he is not. A couple of
seasons ago ne killed boy, in play it
was said, and every now and then he
walks around on his hind legs with a
groom or two attached to the halter.
It's only his high animal spirits, say the
friends of the champion trotter, and no
doubt this is true In a sense, as he is
quiet enough on ordinary occasions dur
ing the training season, and at the recent
Cleveland meeting was exhibited to hal
ter on the home stretch with only a
fragil looking boy to control him, but
Tim MurnaD, foreman of the Ketchum
stable, stood conveniently by with a
whip in his hand"
