AGAIN VICTORIOUS.


II can hardly be possible that Sir
Thomas Upton is still hopeful Of
lifting the cup" After the race on
Saturday about all Of the yachting ex-
perts agreed that there was no chance
for Shamrock III to win a majority OF
the races, but Sir Thomas was not
convinced, or at least said he wasn't,
that the Reliance was the better boat.
1t has been stated in some Of the New
York papers that many OF Sir Thomas
friends. after seeing what the Reliance
could do in a very light breeze, on the
occasion Of the race that was called
off because it could not be sailed within
the time limit, were satisfied that the
cup would remain on this side Of the
ocean.
The race yesterday was in every re-
spect as fair one as that Of last Sat
urday when the Reliance was victo-
rious by more than seven minutes. The
victory. however. was not so pro-
nounced. 1t was sufficient, however,
to justify the opinion that Shamrock
III will be fortunate if she wins one
race. The indications now are that
she will be beaten in three straight
races. AS far as it is possible to
judge the Reliance is the better boat
in all kinds of weather, and in every
kind Of sea.
There is a chance of course that the
Reliance will meet with an accident
10 100 u l.
remote. Besides, Sir Thomas would
not like to win a race through an ac-
cident to his opponent. He is too
much of a sportsman to feel satisfied
with a victory that was not won by
outsailing his opponent in a fair and
square race.
The two victories Of the Reliance
with the prospect that she will win the
third race are robbing the contest of
some of its interest The feeling is
that the American boat is going to be
the victor, and hence there is very lit
tie discussion Of the merits of either
Of the yachts and no betting of con-
sequence. The public is practically
certain as to what the result will be.
If Shamrock III had won yesterday
there would be a vast amount OF ex-
element over the races in all parts Of
this country and Great Britain.
There is much sympathy for Sir
Thomas. He is such a high-minded
and liberal sportsman that he has won
a warm place in the hearts Of the
A
don't want their boat beaten, but they
wouldn't feel very greatly disappoint-
ed If he should win. In his effort to
capture the cup he has spent a vast
amount of money and has never found
fault with anybody or anything. If
he fails to lift the cup" he will have
the satisfaction of knowing that he
has won the good will of about every
body on this side of the Atlantic ocean.

sCHwAB NOT 10 RETURN.

The dispatch which we published
yesterday, giving a statement from
Judge Gary, chairman of the Execu-
tive Committee of the United States
Steel Corporation, to the effect that
Charles M. Schwab, late president Of
the corporation wouldn't return to the
presidency, and that his salary was
100000 a year when he was president
was based upon a special dispatch sent
out from Pittsburg, in which there
were many statements of character
calculated to cause comment. One of
the statements was that Mr.. Carnegie
had the power to name the president
of the corporation, and that he would
put Mr. Schwab back in his old place
as soon as the latter regained his
health. According to this statement
Mr.. Corey was chosen as Mr.. Schwabs
successor because he would step down
and out as soon as Mr.. Schwab was in
a condition to resume the presidency.
Another statement in the Pittsburg
dispatch was that Mr.. Schwab really
received 5000 900 a year as president of
the steel corporation-$160,OO 900 from the
corporation and $4,000 from Mr.. Car
negie. 1t seems remarkable that such
statements which, according to Judge
Gary, have no foundation, in
fact, should be made. 1t can
hardly be possible that Mr..
Schwab authorized them. The prob
ability is that they were given
currency by irresponsible correspond
ents who are ever ready to turn idle
rumors into cash regardless Of the
truth. The probabilities are that Mr.
Schwah, Is out OF the steel corporation
to stay If that were not the case
Judge Gary would not have been so
prompt TO deny the statements in the
dispatch and seni the denial to all
parts of the country.

says the New York Press. Tommy
was jewel and when Joe, the former
incumbent, was convalescent the brok-
er was loath to send Tommy away
But the other bow wanted to come
back and pleaded hard for reinstate-
ment.
We'll" said the former employer
you can have the position again II
you arrange with Tommy"
Very well. sir. l think I can do
that" was the joyous reply
When the broker went to his office
next morning he met a sight he had
not bargained for. The loss in the
door OF his private room was smashed
ink was spilled on the handsome car
pet and chairs were overturned every
where. Evidently there had been a
tremendous struggle. But Joe came
forward blithelg one eye blackened
and his cheek swollen.
''Tommy's gone. sir" he remarked.
I've arranged with him.

A Disappointed American Abroad.

Dear Mr.. Punch. writes invader:
This morning I was strolling in the
Strand, meditating on the sad fact
that 1 am now three thousand miles
from Broadway and can't swim, when
1 suddenly found myself in front OF the
American Quick Lunch Restaurant.
SAYS 1 to myself: Here's where
1 get glad. I shall go get piece of
pie like mother used to make, and
listen while the girls use language to
the chef"
The outside of the place looked all
right. with the chef browning the
sinkers in full view of an admiring
crown, but the first step, inside gave
me a jolt. This was no Nassau Street
quick lunch, but a cross between Del
monicos and Dement'S, that had suf-
fered "a sea change into something
rich and strange"
Thinking it might improve on ac-
quaintance, l took a seat in front Of
a palatial mirror and tried to imagine
that / had just stepped around the
corner off Park Row to Wrassle some
sustaining hash before going to do my
afternoon stunt in the famine district
of a yellow journal. (The famine dis
trict is familiarity known as the liter
airy department.)
"Buckwheat cakes and cup of black
coffee" 1 said to the waitress, and
then perked up my ear expectantly.
Thank you, SIR she said as polite
ly as if she had never walked farther
than Finsbury."
What's the use of having an Amer
lean quick lunch without the local
color? If ] had given that order in
a New York quick lunch bean en-
porium, it would have been translated
TO the chefs department in their fash
ion:
Three up and draw one on the
dark"
Think how that would have toned UP
the frayed system of an exile, and
what an exhilarating flip it would
have given to a correct islander.
What does it matter to me that the
pies, shortcakes, beans, and all Amer
lean dishes are as advertised, if /
can't have the language with it?
When 1 order an omelette in a hurry
1 want to hear the waitress sing out:
"A slaughter in the pan. and no
waiting"
Poached eggs can never be the same
to me unless they come as white
wings, sunny side up" and want my
veal outlet as "A slab of a yearlin'
for a GUNNER" Pork and beans
should come as Chicago and Boston"
and a small coffee as "One- in a she'll"
Besides, they served me PIE without
cheese!"
While the new quick lunch appears
10 be thoroughly convincing to the un-
travelled Englishman, it somehow lacks
flavor to q homesick

1t Is pleasing to note that so many
teams are in attendance upon the in
terstate shoot. There are enough to
make all of the matches successful, in
point of number of entries. This is a
source of qualification to the officers
in charge, who have worked so we'll
for the shoot. They appreciated the
difficulties under which they labored in
seeking to induce commands of other
cities to send teams. State encamp-
ments have been held, and many mem
bers Of the military Of the states that
were urged to send representatives
found It impossible to leave business
again. They had devoted as much time
as they could spare this summer to
military. It is really matter OF sur
prise that, under the circumstances, so
many teams from other states and
from other places in Georgia have been
secured. There is every prospect for
excellent shooting at the range to-day

is THERE HOPE FOR THE BLIND /.

An interesting experiment with RAJ
dunn is being made on blind girl in
New York city. She has been totally
blind for about seven years. Her
blindness is the result of an attack of
meningitis when she was a very young
child. Her name is Lizzie Spitznadel,
and a very pretty and accomplished
girl she is said TO be, accomplished
for a blind girl. William J. Hammer,
an expert in radium, and DR.. Anon
Jenkins, a we'll known physician, are
conducting the experiment.
Thus far they have made but one
application of the radium, and this
was made in connection with the x-ray.
On the day of the experiment the child
noticed no change in her condition.
She could see nothing, not even the
very brightest light that could be pro-
duced. On the following day, how
ever, she was able to point out cleo
trio lights in the street in the even
ing, and she noticed street cars as they
passed The cars seemed to make
shadow which she claimed was per-
ceptible to her.
The experimenters are not very
hopeful. 1t does not seem reasonable
that her sight be restored. Oc-
ulists say that II the optic nerve is
destroyed neither radium nor anything
else can restore it, and without the
optic nerve there can be no sight.
STILL the case is exciting a great deal
of interest, and is being followed by
many oculists and others with pro-
found interest.

A STRONG PLEA FOR THE CAM
TEEN,

Army officers, at least the majority
Of those at isolated army posts, con-
tinue to insist in their annual reports
that the canteen is a good thing for
the army. Gen. Frederick D. Grant,
commanding the Department OF Texas,
in his annual report says; NO argu-
ment can be too earnest for the re-
establishment OF the canteen. Aside
from the recreation Of garrison life,
the canteen. which is the enlisted SOL
dier's club room, is a protected circle
into which no vice or degradation in
trudes. There the soldier is guaranteed
certain privileges which, so long as not
abused, prove a bulwark against the
temptations and dangers that now sur
round almost every post in the army,
and especially border and remote
posts. To close the door OF the SOL
diers garrison club and send him in
to the haunts OF iniquity and vice run
by moral vultures who, degraded them
selves, set I'D no standard Of morality,
but, breaking down all barriers of re-
straint, invite and induce soldiers to
join in all sorts Of depravity and in
we'll as a wrong to the community in
which the soldier is located"
Gen. Grant states the situation for
chilly and clearly. 1t is strange that
those who have succeeded in having
the canteen removed from the army
l.
lection rather than an injury to the
soldier. No amount Of argument,
however, is sufficient to convince them
that 1t is advisable to sell intoxicating
beverages to soldiers under some cir
cumstances. In the canteen the SOL
der gets beer and light wines in mod
GRAFTON. He is satisfied with such bev-
erages. If he cannot obtain them I'M
der the protection of the army he will
get them, together with the vilest
kinds Of liquors, in the vicinity of the
army posts. There is no way to pre-
vent him from getting them. The con-
sequence is that he seeks the low
dens that are established in the vicin-
ity of army posts for the purpose of
robbing the soldiers of their money.
He is bound to have a certain amount
of recreation, and If he cannot have it
where it is practically harmless to
him he will seek It elsewhere. This
is the testimony of most of the com
manders of army posts, and they are
certainly better judges Of what is best
for the soldier than the theorists who
oppose the canteen simply because
they object to the sale of intoxicants
of any kind. The real interests Of the
soldier they do not, apparently, care
anything about. They are prohibition
lists and their one purpose is to prevent
the sale of alcoholic drinks.

Former Senator NJ. c. Butler of South
Carolina takes Secretary of Agriculture
Wilson to task about his utterances
relative to the bull ring that sent cot
ton prices skyward by its July corner.
He says that the operators, to whom
the Secretary referred as gamblers, did
more for cotton producers within a
few months than the Department of
Agriculture has done in ten years. That
is questionable. The legitimate reward
of industry is rather to be desired than
an inflated reward. The department
has continually aided cotton planters.
The spasmodic help that came from
the bull operators might be wiped out
in a time as short as that in which
It was rendered should these same
spectators flop to the other side and
bear the market. That they may do
so is easily within the probabilities
Such cotton market shifts are not I'M
common. The aid Of the department,
however, is constant.
