CHALLENGER.

Glasgow, March l7.-Mr. Fife. the yacht de-
sgner, has been negotiating with Sir Thomas
Lapton with view TO making alterations in
shamrock / that he believes would greatly in
crease her speed. Sir Thomas Upton, how
ever, after consulting with his advisers. has de-
olaed that the former challenger shall be re-
STORED as nearly as possible 10 the trim in which
she sailed the cup races, so as 20 attain reli-
ahie comparison possible of the speed of
me Columbia and Shamrock III. The trials be-
tween the two Shamrocks viii therefore be OF
exceptional interest
scott 4 Cox, OF Greenock, are making good
progress in refitting Shamrock l. and her racing
sRars viii be stepped during the next few days
IL has Just been decided that both Shamrocks
are TO go 10 America. and effort will be made

LONGER COURSES FOE DEvTTsTs
LEADING DENTAL SCHOOLS LIKELY To
ADOPT FOUR YEAR TERM FOR DECREE

LEADING DENTAL SCHOOLS Likely To
ADOPT FOUR YEAR TERM FOR DEGREE.
The leading dental schools in this country W i'll
it is likely, adopt next year courses of instruc-
tion covering four instead of three years For
some years some of the best known dental prac-
tiioners I'm this country have striven for the es-
tablishment of such courses and all signs in
dicate that their hopes are soon 10 be realized
This question has recently been discussed hy
many dental faculties. with the result that there
has been an interchange of ideas ON the sub
ject which show that the plan is seneraIly
looked upon with favor.
These facts given TO Tribune reporter
yesterday by one OF the best known dentists in
this city. His name is withheld at his own
request.
The movement to extend the course of in
struction in dental colleges leading TO a degree.
that it will be four years." he said may
meet with a severe check. In this matter New
York Will take the lead. il has in all other
efforts relating to the placing of the dental
profession upon higher plane. We want the
profession OF dentistry TO be on equal footing
with the profession of medicine or surgery
There time when a blacksmith who did
not have fair education could easily become a
dentist These days however, have passed. and
the profession of dentistry has in late years
taken great strides forward.
Il should say the probabilities are that an
other year Will be added to the course of in
structiOn required for a degree in the dental
schools of this State I'm 1902. Then the length
of the courses for degree in the New-YOrk
State dental and medical schools will be the
same. / do not care TO say just at present what
dental schools outside of this State are con-
templating extending their courses for degree"

High Speed by Trolley Car in Phiia-
 deIphia.
 In whatever other respects Phlladei- phia may be slow she has trolley car which sweeps through the city in the gray hours of dawn and which. taken day by day, is swifter thar anything else of it's kind or class in the world, says the New York Sun. It starts from the heart of the city Just after the newspapers are out of press and tears away through the silent streets in a northerly and westerly direction, up and down hill and along valleys, with occasional stops to throw out bundles until twenty seven minutes later 1t rests on the northern summit of Chest nut hill, fourteen and three-quatter miles away This is at the average gate of thirtyfve miles an hour, in cluding at least one stop every three fourths of a mile Sometimes on it's route it has run mile in minute and an eighth and it has made the dis tance in twenty-five minutes, includ- ing the stops, which Is just the sched- ule time of the steam express trains for practically the same distance between the same places, though on neither the Reading nor the Pennsylvania rail ways do the trains make any stops. Sometimes, as on market day, there are Interruptions, when sleepy teams get on the lines of metals, and occa- sionally another trolley car gets be- crix ho ioh of way promptly. but despite the occa- sional delays, for two years, in all conditions of weather, facing rain or snow, with mechanical incidents ad- verse to it's career, It has made on an average thirty-fVe trips out of thirty five on time and only once has it been longer than forty-fve minutes ill coy ering the distance On that occasion the wreck of a hay wagon was on the road and for this the Eagle Flight trolley was not responsible. From the fact that this cat carries the morning newspapers for distribution it might be thought to be journalistic enter prise in Philadelphia, but this is not the case II is an experiment. by the Union Traction company t9 test the maintenance of hish spead and the eVenness of schedule time under con ditions peculiarly favorable for seeur- ing exact factors for all the problems it is sought to solve Every trip is ob- served by electrical experts, the induc- tiOn is estimated, the power measured the state of the metal, the thermomet" rical and barometrical conditions noted as well as the humidity and fog at the different elevations along the line, and when 1000 trips have been made the data thus gathered will he considered with view or Formulating resRlt to be applied in such directions of econ omy and accelerated speeds as may b. opened Up.

SUSPENDED JUDGE
 STILL HOLDS ON
Had to be Taken from His Seat by Force of Two Po-
 licemen

Omaha, Neb., April 5.-Samuel l. Cor don. who was last night suspended as po- lice judge, pending an impeachment trial by the City Council, today. attempted to take his seat as usual at the morning session, and with his son was finally re- moved forcibly by the police. Justice Crawford, who was appointed to succeed Gordon, ouened court at o'clock, and ad- journed it for the day few minutes later out of respect to the death of the late Judge Learn. Gordon and his son came into the courtroom a little later and att tempted to hold session of court. The court officer refused to produce prison CTS or call cases docketed. Gordon sat on the bench the remainder of the day, how ever, and when the desk sergeant in formed him at 6 o'clock this evening that it was time to lock up, he refused to leave the room unless removed by force. This three policemen did after a struggle. An other scene is anticipated when the court convenes tomorrow, Gordon stating to- night that he would insist on holding court as usual in the morning.
