Fourth of July celebrations we're
so numerous in Grant county Satur-
day that it is impossible to give each
a creditable write-up. A majority
of county seat folks went to Bee
town, where the biggest celebration
on record there took place. There
was something doing all day and
visitors were satisfied. Platteville,
Livingston and Hazel Green drew
big crowds, as did also Mt. Hope
and other places where the national
holiday was observed.

Keeping UP Appearances.

You will see plenty of women who
will look smart for few weeks each
season and then degenerate into dowdi-
ness. 1t is because they do not take
good care of their clothing, and it's
freshness lasts only a short time. A
tired body and very little spare time
will receive pardon for many omissions
Of duty, but, truth to tell, not among
such surroundings do we find untidi-
ness as a general thing. Business
women are compelled to keep up APP
pearances, sometimes by the rules Of
the house which commands their serv-
ices, and always by the knowledge
that pleasing appearance is of finan-
cial advantage to them in any employ

Weymouth, April 17.-Sir Thomas
Lipton's new challenger for the Amer
ica's cup was dismantled in a squat
today shortly after leaving the harbor
preparatory to another trial spin with
the Shamrock l.
Her mast, as it fell over the side,
carried several of the crew and all
the gear and canvas overheard.
One a was drowned and several
persons, including Sir Thomas, who
was knocked down a %hatchway, were
bruised or otherwise injured.
The man who was drowned was a
brother:in-law OF Captain -Wringe. He
was handing a %binocular glass to Sir
Thomas at the time he was swept
overheard.
One of Sir Thomas hands was in
jured but not seriously. The yachts
were m%aneuvering in the Roads lead
under mainsails, jibs, foresails and
gait topsails prior to the start. A
strong northeast breeze was blowing,
but there was nothing in the nature OF
a gale. The boats seemed to carry
their racing sails we'll as they fetch
ed out from the shelter of the break
water, Shamrock III leading on the
tack out seward, apparently with the
intention of testing the strength of
the wind outside. The breeze had
just weight enough to keep her lee
rail dipping.
Before the start, Sir Thomas Upton,
Ratsey, the sailmaker, and Colonel
Sherman Crawford, vice-commodore of
the Royal Ulster Yacht club, boarded
the challenger, which made a mag
nificent picture, as under her cloud
of n she drove past Nothead.
The Erin had taken up a position to
send the boats away round a triangu-
lar course and everything seemed to
promise a fine race. Shamrock Ill
then made a short board IN the port
tack, dragging through a heavy squall
with her lee decks awash.
At about 10:4O a. m, when nearly a
mile ashore, she went about on the
starboard tack to stand up to cross
the line, when a sudden gust of wind
sweeping out of Weymouth bay struck
the yacht and completely dismantled
her. The weather rigging screws
of her main shrouds and her mast
were carried away close to the deck
and with it went her spar sails and
gearing in a confused mass of wreck
age.

REcoUNrs PLOT.
Youtsey Continues His Tale Of Con-

Frankfort, KY, April 1.-THE
Franklin county court room was again
packed today with the crowd in at
tendance at the Howard trial. Henry
E. Youtsey was still on the stand
for cross-examination.
Youtsey told of making an arrange.
men with Mason Hockersmith, color
ed, to kill Goebel. Hockersmith want
ed to interview Governor Taylor be-
fore doing the shooting and witness
wanted to see Taylor to arrange for
the interview. Taylor told witness
he could not afford to risk a negro
and witness returned and told Hooker
smith what he said.
Johnson, who also had been select
ed to do the killing, left here January
8. Asked as to the substance of a let
ter witness claimed to have written
to Howard January 26 at Taylor's d.
rection, witness said it merely said
to Howard to come to Frankfort at
once as Taylor was about to be rob-
bed of his Office. Howard, he said,
knew when he arrived that he had
been selected to do the killing.

INTERSTATE COMMERCE COM.
MISSION MEETING CALLED.
MYSTERIOUS Mr.. KNOX
Movements Of the Attorney General
Put People to Guessing-Hurried
Journey West.

Washington, April 17.-Many peo-
pie here believe that the administra-
ton proposes to bring the coal trust
to account for it's sins at once, and
that the coal roads will be made to
feel the full effect Of the interstate
act and the penalties of the Sherman
antitrust law.
This, they say, is the meaning OF
writs of subpoena ISSUED and a hear
ing called for next week at New York
by the interstate commerc commits
sion.
1t has often been stated that the
roads have violated the law in grant
ing of rebates, in failing to publish
their rates, in agreeing to suppress
competition and in other ways. Some
of these charges were amply support
ed in the hearings before the arbitra-
ton board.
Now it is proposed to have official
information for the guidance of the
interstate commerce commission in
the enforcement of the Elkins law.
If there is any evidence tending to
show a conspiracy in restraint of
trade. that will be brought out and
referred to the attorney general with
recommendations for the enforcement
of the criminal penalties.

KNOX THE MYSTERIOUS.
His Sudden Trip West Not S%atisfactor.
lily Explained.

Pittsburg, Pa, April 17.-Attorney
General Knox dropped into Pittsburg
late yesterday on a very mysterious
visit. Immediately after his arrival
he went to his office in the Carnegie
building, where he was joined by
United States District Attorney Jas.
S. Young. The two remained in con-
sultation for some time, and then
went to the Union club, where they
dined. They remained in a private
dining-room until almost 9 o'clock,
when they were driven to the Union
depot. A compartment had been en-
gagged for them on the Pennsylvania
Limited, which started for the west
soon after 8 o'clock. The conductor
of the train refused to state their des-
tination.
One report is to the effect that they
are bound for Chicago on business
connected with the beef combine suit.
Another story is that they are 60
ing to st. Paul to look into the North
ern Securities case.
A third report is that Mr.. Knox is
on his way to Yellowstone park to con-
suit the president on trust litigation.

Won by the Mexican.

Butte, April 17.-Aurelio Herrera
put to sleep Jack Richards, a local
hard hitting fighter, in four rounds OF
tame fighting. Never once could
Richards hit his man, although he
aimed some vicious blows which the
Mexican, with his i~mpenetrable guard
easily escaped. The fight was sched-
uled to go 20 rounds, but there was
only Is seconds of fighting in the
fourth round. Richards took an awful
beatin, going down for count of nine
twice. The Mexican was sick and
weak with a cold and his head was
so badly stuffed up that he was fore
ed to breathe through his mouth.
