MILLIONAIRE
CUP *
DEFENDERS

Next summer We are to have another
series of yacht races for the Americas s
cup. As in former years the contest
will probably arouse much popular in
terest. All over the country. not only
on our wide seaboards, but in prairie
cities and mountain towns, every detail
Of the preparations, from the length of
the cardboard strakes to the name of
the defender, will be known and dis
cussed, and when the races are finally
sailed the results will be received in
every telegraph Office in the land al
most before the victor and vanquished
have furled their great white sails.
So, you see, while our interest in the
cup races is somewhat academic, we
get lots of fun out of the thing.
Yachting always has been a rich
mans sport. Quite likely it always will
be. International yacht racing is a
game for multimillionaires If you
don't believe it, just glance at the
names comprising the syndicate formed
to resist Sir Thomas Lipton's third at.
tempt on the cup. They are all names
of men of great wealth. The syndicate
consists of Elbert II. Gary, Clement A.
Griscom, James j. HILL William B.
Leeds, William Rockefeller, Cornelius
Vanderbilt, Henry Walters and P. A.
B. Widener.
Mr.. Vanderbilt is prominent mem,
Der Of the Corinthian Yacht club. He
owns and successfully has sailed the
seventy rater Rainbow for two seasons
and recently has become the owner of
the steam yacht Cherokee, formerly
owned by William Clark and renamed
by Mr.. Vanderbilt the North Star. He
also owns the small steam yacht MI
rage.
William B. Leeds owns the steam
yacht Mona that was built for him
last year and launched early this sea.

director of the American Can compa-
ny, the Audit company of New York

Besides the cost Of q new yacht to be
constructed by the Herreshoffs there
will be the expense of refitting the
Columbia and the Constitution as trial
horses. The new boat will cost In the
neighborhood Of 100000. and the other
expenses will probably foot up 100000
more. Besides, there is the item of pay
for officers and men of the three boats,
which will aggregate $4,000. All this
and more will be gladly paid by the
millionaires' syndicate for the sake of
the ephemeral glory of being cup de-
tenders.
The coming contest will be the thir-
teenth in which American boats have
sailed for the cup, including the race
in which the yacht America won the
trophy. On this, the thirteenth trial.
will the fateful number interpose its
malign influence against American
yachting supremacy? Let us pray not
Then, too, Sir Thomas Upton is the
only man to thrice attempt to win the
historic piece of silver. Defeated
twice, may not the fates give him vic
tory on the third assault? These num-
bers, thirteen and three, may cause
superstitious yachtsmen some uneasy
moments.
Previous to 1885 the honor of de-
Tending the cup went to the best boat,
without regard to the club from which
she hailed. In the first race for the
cap that took place in American wa
tiers, which occurred in 1870. Mr.. Ash
bury's schooner yacht Cambria sailed
against feet of twenty three Ameri-
can schooners, including the America.
1t was not until the Royal Yacht
squadron challenged in 1885 in behalf
of Sir Richard Suttons Genesta that
it was considered necessary to build a
yacht specially to defend the cup. The
Puritan and the Priscilla were built
for this purpose. The Puritan was Sc.
lected after a series of trial races. The
contest that year was notable in that
the Genesta came the nearest to carry
ing away the cup Of any challenger be
fore or since. For the first time the
now celebrated ninety footers tried for
the trophy, and then also began the
practice of building special cup de-
| fender.

A Timely Suggestion.

This is the season OF the year when the
prudent and careful housewife replen-
ishes her supply of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. 1t is certain to be needed be-
fore the winter is over, and results are
much more prompt and satisfactory when
it is kept at hand and given as soon as
the cold is contracted and before it has
become settled in the system. In almost
every instance a severe cold may be
warded off by taking this remedy freely
as soon as the first indication of the cold
appears. There s.no danger in giving
it to children for it contains no harmful
substance. 1t is pleasant to take-both
adults and children like it. Buy it and
you will get the best. 1t always cures.

and the United States Mortgage and
Trust company. He has been a mem
ber Of the New York Yacht club only
since last March.
James J. Hill was elected member
of the New York Yacht club in Feb
ruary, 1901. He owns the 243 foot
steam yacht Wacouta. He is president
of the Great Northern Railway compa-
ny and the Northern Securities COM
pany and is one of the foremost rail
road men and financiers of the day.
Clement A Griscom is the prominent
Philadelphia financier and steamship
builder and owner, best known as the
president of the International Naviga-
ton company. He is the owner of the
schooner Alert and has been member
of the New York Yacht club since 1877.
Elbert H. Gary is best known to the
public as the president OF the Federal
Steel company and chairman of the
executive committee Of the United
States Steel corporation. He is new
member of the club.
P. A. B. Widener is the Philadelphia
street railway magnate and financier
and renowned as an art connoisseur.
He owns the big steam yacht Jo-
sephine. His membership in the New
York Yacht club dates from February,
1896. Henry Walters of Baltimore be-
came a member of the club in May,
1896. William Rockefeller has been
member of the club since 1890.
Sir Thomas Upton has spent over
S1,3OO,O00 in his two unsuccessful as
saults on the Americas cup. and the
third trial will probably bring the total
up to $2,O00O00-a vast sum to be de-
voted to merely few weeks Of sport
with glory as the only possible reward.

falls upon the challenger. and when'

nevertheless the races next summer
are sure to attract widespread inter
est. Everybody likes contest. wheth-
er it be between yachts, horses, bicy-
cles or anything where skill and cour-
age are required. Sir Thomas Upton
has made many friends by his pluck,
and the assurance that he will have
the best yacht that can be built in
Scotland manned by the most skillful
sailors in Great Britain gives zest to
the approaching trial.
That he will be opposed by the best
sailors of America in an American
built yacht will arouse national feel
ing, and the public will root loyalty for
the Yankee craft.
The new boat to be built by the
Herreshoffs will be ably managed and
