Upton DECIDES TO
TRY ONCE MORE.
WILL BUILD A THIRD SHAMROCK.
watson to Design the New ChaI-
Ienger and All the Old Crew
Anxious TO Sail in
Contest

LONDON, Dec 30-It is stated that Sir
Thomas Upton has decided to contest for
the Americas Cup in 1903 with new
yacht, Shamrock III.
Captain Sycamore, who sailed Shamrock
Il, has had number of Interviews with
Sir Thomas. and it is understood that
Watson will be the designer of the new
yacht.
All of the crew of Shamrock Il wish to
sail agair is the contest for the Cup.
If this announced decision eliminates
in race, it will be the third attempt Sir
Thomas has made to lift the America s
Cup.
! IN 1899 he built and sent over the Sham
rock J, and declared that he had not done
SO 10 try for the trophy, but TO get it.
But the American yacht Columbia, built
| to defend the Cup proved, in spite of the
/ chaIlenger's optimism, more than q
match for the chaIIenger's boat, and Sir
! Thomas effort was vain.
! He. however. was apparently in nowise
discouraged by mis- defeat, and went home
built the Shamrock II and came over
again last summer
The yacht Constitution was built on
this side to oppose the challenger, but
for one reason OF another It was decided
that the old defender Columbia was the
safest boat, and she was again chosen as
/ the defender.
The races, sailed late last summer off
Sandy Hook, proved the closest in the his
/ tory Of yachting, and though Sir Thomas
Shamrock II was beaten, the margin of
defeat was so narrow that Sir Thomas
went home elated rather than discour-
aged. and declaring that he would proba-
! bly, come again
Wherefore the fact that he has def
nitely decided to DO SO viii probably not
/ come as a surprise 10 the public either
! here or in England.

Fear or Anger If the Slay-
er Of It's Master Is
Presented.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec 3O.-Emotion dis
played by a dog may point out TO the po-
lice the person who murdered Howard a.
Bruce, watehman for firm of contractors.
in his shanty at the foot of East Jackson
Street. early yesterday morning.
Bruce was found dead at O'Clock by
Harvey johnson. watehman On the Bal
tinore and Ohio trest1e near By. He had
been killed with an ak.
Belle. Bruce's black and white pointer,
was the one witness to the tragedy besides
the murderer. Belle had been Bruee's
faithful companion for long time.
Usually Quick to Warn.
She was usually prompt, say BTuces
friends, 20 give he. master notice Of the
approach of a stranger A month ago the
animal attacked q stranger who halted
on the street in front Of The place Bruce
guarded. The slightest unusual noise was
sufficient to set her to barking.
From the fact that she was not heard
to bark on Saturday night or to give any
warning Of Bruce's fate it is argued that
whoever killed Bruce was well known to
both master ana dog It is assumed that
a stranger entering the place would have
been detected by the dog and have put
Bruce upon his guard
The Dogs Devotion.
When the police arrived the dog was
found whining piteousIy, aHd endeavoring
to pull her master into a sitting posture.
1t is probable that Belle will figure in
the case in the role OF detective, for it
IS proposed to suddenly confront suspect
ed persons with the animal, in the hope
that she may recognize her masters slay-
er, and evince fear or anger, thus point
ing TO the perpetrator.
Four men are now under arrest at the
