To Avoid Freckles.

The best advice in connection with this
subject is to say "wear a sun bonnet"
and if in doubt whether sun bonnet can
be made attractive and pretty in contrast
with the old head-burying abomination
of years ago, every woman preparing to
go to the country should look at the June
Delineator and examine the dainty sun
bonnets that are shown there both for
grown-ups and children.

HARTFORD PLAYERS FINED
One Throws his Bat at the Umpire and
 Gets a Trump on the Jaw.

Rochester, June 26.-The ninth in- ming of yesterdays game at Culver park between the Rochester and Hart ford Eastern league teams was marked Dy disgraceful exhibition of rowdy- Ism on the part of several of the Hart Ford players. culminating in an attack upon Umpire Al Warner by Charles kuhns, the visitors left fielder. Kuhns threw his bat at Warner, striking him across the arm and started to walk to the bench. Warner walked in from his place back of the pitcher and notified huhnS that he was fined and ont of tha game. The latter then address an in- sult1ng remark to the Umpire and by way of retort received a left swing on the Jaw that staggered him. Pitcher BoWen of the Rochester team rushed between the men then, and three po- hcemen came down into the field and escorted the Hartford player from the field.
 warner has written the particulars of the assault to President Pat Powers or the Eastern league, and intends to push the case to the limit The trouble Tn the ninth inning started when strike was called on Captain Manager Shindle, for several years member of the National league team in Brook lyn. Shindle objected to the decision and was fined $5. Catcher Steelman. another ex-Brooklyn player, who yes- terday distinguished himself by hurl-, ing a bat at the umpire when the lat ters back was turned, began abusing the umpire and was first fined and or cred then from the grounds. Several other members of the visiting team joined in the shouting, Kuhns being one of the most persistent.
 When Kuhns came to the bat after Shindle two strikes were called on him and momnet later he went out on a pop-up fly. It was then that he hurled the bat at Warner The crowd howled for Kuhn's expulsion from the field and there was movement among the more turbulent spectators to go down on the feAd and take hand in the proceed ings, in which event Kuhns would have been roughly handled. Pitcher Me Cam of the Hartford team was also fined in yesterdays game for too em- phatic protests against decision of &he umpire.

GETTING INTO FORM.
Yale Oarsmen are Confident of Win
 ming Tomorrow.

ulng IO-mOrrOW.
 Gales Ferry, June 26.--Yale's oars men who will figure in tomorrow s races arose this morning in the best of condition and good spirits ready for the light practice of the day. For sev- era1 hours they fingered in groups in the favorite shady places about the quarters. chatting merrily with wis 1tors or listening to words of counsel from the coaches and graduates of ex- perience in boating form and racing history. The coaches declare all men physically fit, the staleness which fol lowed the strenuous effort of the four mile race against time last week, hay ing passed away. All the varsity men look well and their action in tie big boat has steadily improved during the week, even Hooker, who was decided ly out of condition at one time, being now in first-rate form
 4 feeling of confidence was manifest this morning among the men, though their advisers and critics take pains to see to it that this feeling does not amount to er-confidence. Deter mination of the grimest kind is evi- dent in every many in the varsity eight, and this to a degree is shared by the sturdy oarSmen of the other boats.
 The practice of the morning was mainly a limbering process, consisting of few racing starts only for each of the crews. The freshmen pulled their usual strong stroke with Miller at bow where he will undoubtedly row in the race

ITALY PAYS NO BOUNTY

Washington, June 26.-An official statement from the Italian government was communicated to the state depart ment to-day to the effect that Italy paid no export bounty on sugar. This ac- tion by the Italian authorities follows eight days from the issuance of Sec retary Cages treasury order suspend ing the liquidation of all sugar import ed from or produced in Italy, on the ground that the treasury had informa- ton leading to the belief that Italian sugar received bounty. The declar- ation now made by the Italian govern ment does not appear to be with any view of raising sharp issue but rath- CT to make known in explicit and off, cial language that Italy does not pay this bounty on sugar.

MITIGATION OF WAR SPIRIT
Herbert Spencer Writes Letter
 Pleading For Peace.

New York, June 26.-Herbert Spen- cer has written a letter pleading for mitigation of the war spirit, says a London dispatch to the Journal and Advertiser In it he says
 Whatever fosters militarism makes for barbarism; whatever fosters peace makes for civilization. There are two Fundamentally opposed prin- ciples on which social life may be organized, compulsory cooperation and voluntary cooperation, the one i'm plying coercfve institutions, the other free institutions.
 Just in proportion as militant ac- tiyity is great does the coercive regime more pervade the whole society. Hence, to oppose militancy is to op- pose return toward despotism
 My fear is that the retrograde movement will become too strong to be checked by argument or exhorta- tion."

Boston, June 26.-The Independence was placed in commission to-day just before she started for her last trial spin before participating in the races off Newport. The ceremony was short but interesting. Arnold Lawson, son of Thomas w. Lawson, the owner and Secretary Charles c.

PRISONERS TO HAVE VACATION.
Those Who Have Been Good Will be
 Rewarded Generously.

Bridgeport, June 26.-Twenty- five prisoners in the Fairfield county jail here are to have vacations. Only those who have been good since they were caught being bad will be consid- cred.

 Cape Ballard, not Bollard, is situated on the coast of Newfoundland, about sixty miles south of St Johns.
 The Lusitania was built at Liver pool by Lacid brothers in 1871.
 The steamer sailed from Liverpool June 19. It was under lease to the Elder Dympster steamship company and ond Monday was to have been transferred to the Franco Canadian line.
 The Lusitania is commanded by captain Mckay, a well known exper- fenced and greatly trusted captain of the Elder Dempster line. His passen- ger equipment amounted to six cabin, 14 second class and three hundred and forty four steerage passengers. The passenger list cannot be obtained here but the elder Dempster people under stand that all are safe They have ar- ranged with the firm of Powrig Bros of St Johns, N. F.. to look after the passengers and to see that they are sent to their respective destinations.
 The Lusitania was bound around Cape Race, for Montreal, with a large cargo and shipload of passengers. She miStook her course in dense fog and went ashore near Ronews, twenty miles north of Cape Race before day break. The ship ran oyer reef and hangs against a cliff. The passengers who are mostly emigrants, were panic striken. They stampeded and fought for the boats but were overcome by the officers and crew, who secured con- trol after great, trouble and prolong- ed struggle with the rougher elements among the passengers who used knives. The Ewonen and children were f@st landed and the men follow ed. The crew stood by the ship. A heavy sea was running but when these advices were received the Lusitania was holding her own. It was thought likely she would prove a total wreck.
 The disaster occurred miles from the nearest telegraph station and the details obtainable at this time are meagfe. A representative of the As sociated Press has started for the scene to obtain full reports. Several steamers are fitting out here and will leave shortly for the scene of the wreck. It is expected that the large cargo of the Lusitania will be salvaged
 As this dispatch is being sent a re port has reached here that boat load or pe0rse from the Lnsitania was up- set and that twenty persons were drowned. The correspondent of The Associated Press here is unable to guarantee the accuracy of this report at present.
