THE DEFENDER 2.
Shows Some Marked Changes
from the Constitution.
Has a Greater Beam, With a Floor
Fully as Flat.
Tcpsides Show Slight Tumble Home
Not So Much Flare.

Bristol. r. l., Dec. 23.-Work contin-
ues brisk upon the new cup defender at
the Herreshoffs, the attention of the
workmen being paid to fitting the stem
and sternpost and in plating the lead
keel with Tobin Bronze. This plating
is intended to protect the soft lead
from injury in case of contact with an
obstruction in the water.
AS the yacht begins to assume form
the ideas of the designer are brought
cut. 1t seems as # the new yacht with
a greater beam than the Constitution
will have floor as fiat as on that
craft.
In this connection. however, 1t is
shown by the serving board that the
hull above the water line will not have
such a flare as in previous 90-footers,
there being a slight tumble home at the
tcpsidas. The advantage claimed is a
staunchness not equalled in the other
racers.

New York Objects to Raising the
Quarantine on Connecticut.
Prof. Law Thinks Disease Is Nearly
Stamped Out.

Lowell. Mass, Dec. 23.-There are
two wild deer in the vicinity of Noun
tain Rock, Dracut, suffering from the
foot and mouth disease. While these
animals are permitted to be free they
are constant menace to cattle that
may be left in the fields.
At the same time no one has been
found vet who is willing to take the re-
sponsibiiity of killing them inasmuch
as there is a heavy penalty provided
for the killing of deer in this state.
The case was called to the attention OF
DR.. w. S. Eaton. yesterday. his inform
ant being an old farmer who lives in
the direction Of Mountain Rock and
who has repeatedly seen the animals.
The man said that the deer were
lame-so lame that they could not run
and had other symptoms peculiar to
the foot and mouth disease.

Cannot somo of the readers Of

reports show that At per cent. of
them are there, taking all tho
states together. I did not expect
this thing to happen sooner than
the year 2 200. Some of us older
ones ought to have philan thropy
enough to warn tho younger onos
of the stumps and snags we have
passed on life's journey.
If this "town" migration does
not stop, it seems to mo there will
be wreck on this terrogeous
sphere ore long. l will suggest wo
try this:
Quit feeding othors on chickens
at ton cents that cost thirty to for
ty cents to raise, and beef at four
and five cents that costs ten to
twelve; quit using tobacco, unless
you raise it, as you pay from $12
to $40 for what you can raise for
$l; quit giving one~fourth Of q
bushel of corn for one twenty
fourth part Of tho whiskey that is
in bushol Of corn; quit feeding a
dog at from $40 to $l2 expense for
twenty-five cents worth of sport
and ten cents worth Of profit; quit
going to town for all your meal
and bread; ask your state repre.
sontatives not to spend our money

death rate among the negroes in tho
cities where they live in the congested
districts and "whcre every law OF ma.
lure anu sanitation is dcticd" Is nearly
double that of the whites and Is far In
excess OF the birth rate, and this high
mortality has led some to think that
the negro Is dying out. The census tlc-
