Sir Humphrey Potter
- Eirst Love. -


ANA RcOPAo COAAoAOcAUQ lu2t tuo
M time had come when Sir Hum
phrey Potter. with his wealth and his
title. should take q wife. Some of
these had daughtera They were only
anxious for the dear girls happiness.
No one. however. cared to speak to
him ON such subjects as love and mar
riage. He would have thought them
frivolous
He was never frivolous.
1t was only possible to interest him
In serious matters; business trans
actions for preference; politics. on
which he had decided views, In his
lighter moods- It was dificult to
conceive Of him a. q lover. His tall,
portly form seemed always to require
about 1t the red mahogany and shin
ing leather Of his once. Laughter,
while IN conversation with Sir Hum
phrey. seemed out of place. It was.
said an irreverent person, as the
cracking Of thorns under q Potter.
Mrs. Latimer had described him as
s'portentous." She owned that the
exact meaning OF the word had escaped
her for the moment. but she had an In
ner cnnsciossness that It contained m
enact description. and she was mot to
bs moved By any dictionary person.
He was self-made man That was
evident. No one else would have trou-
bled to mako him. However. he stated
the fact constantly.
He was enormously rich. and had OBJ
tanned knighthood by judicious phil
anthropy. He did not pay large sal
aries to his clerks. but when . fund
was started at the Mansion house he
pressed nobly to the front Pressing
nobly to the front-people can see you
when you are there-had made him
what he was-Sir Humphrey Potter.
Young ladies have been wont to call
him. In the course Of private CONVEX
station. "a fat pompous beast" The
course Of private conversation does
not always run smoothly. Now he
was dear Sir Humphrey"
He was ON the market. He had
wealth and title. although the goods
were . little shop-soiled-
It was on . beautiful. warm morning
in July that Sir Humphrey cautiously
lifted one lath of his bedroom blind
and peered out. He was not anxious
to be seen. He was a man Of great
dignity Of presence (his tailor. to
whom he paid cash. had often told him
SOY, but he felt he did not look his
best at that particular time. His hair
fell in q fringe over his forehead
which did not suit him-and his face

STATEMENT OF SIR THOMAS

cusses His Defeat.

Generous Victor-Cheers for
the Reliance.

Highlands of Navesink, N. j., Sept.
5.-When the Erin had discharged her
passengers Thursday night and the re-
echo OF their cheers had died away Sir
Thomas Upton said: 1.-TWO weeks. ago

ed, but to-day I am almost glad in my

London, Sept. 5.-The final deafeat of
Sir Thomas Lipton's cup challenger,
Shamrock Ill.,, was received in London
with absolute listlessness. Most of the
afternoon papers published special edi-
ton announcing the result Of the cup
races, but the announcement had al
ready been discounted by the dispatches
giving the progress Of the race. The con-
sensus of opinion is that Sir Thomas Lip
ton has done everything that time and
money could accomplish, and widespread
sympathy for him is shown. The chief
hope expressed in the streets is that
Canada will enter the lists next year.
and possibly succeed where the mother
country has failed. It seems improb-
able that, in view Of the failure of Sham
rock Ill.,, another challenger will soon
be dispatched from England.
New York, Sept. 5.-1n a spectacular
finish Reliance won the third and de-
cisive race in the series for the Amer
ica's cup. Shamrock ILL.,, after CROP
ing around in the fog for more than an
hour, missed the finish line, passed it by,
and finally returned to it from the op-
posite direction, just in time to see he1
fleet rival being towed through the as
sembled boats. There was no second in
the final race, as Shamrock did not cross
the finish line, and her time was not
taken.
New York, Sept. 5.-The Reliance
in tow of the tug Guiding Star. left
the Horseshoe early Friday on he1
way up the bay. Both yacht and tug
were covered with flags. Passing craft
and those at anchor gave the Veto
rious cup defender cordial greeting
as she passed up the harbor.
The Reliance was taken to her former
anchorage off New Rochelle. Later it is
expected she will be taken to City Island
to be laid up for the winter.

Sandy Hook preparing for her long trir

day by Richard v. Lindaury, of coun
ing the Jury to find a verdict of not
guilty. the chief justice said that in
order to hold the defendants Grimm
ally responsible it must be shown
that they had failed to perform some
specific act. This the state had failed
to do. he said.
States Claim Not Proved.
The chief justice then went on to
state that the claim of the state that
the derailing switch is universally in
use, was not proved. as statistics
showed that less than ten per cent
of the trolley crossings over steam
railroad tracks were provided with
derailing switches. That. the chief
justice said. left it question whether
other safeguards were not equally
good.
The chief justice then referred to
the rules of the North Jersey Railway
company as laid down to it's employees
as sufficient safeguards under or
binary circumstances if they had been
carried out. He said that from the
evidence it was apparent that If sand
had been used. as called for by the
rules, had the car been stopped 30
feet from the crossing. as the rules
called for, and had the conductor gone
ahead to the crossing, to signal the
motorman, the accident would not
have happened.
Justices Van SICKLE and Dixon both
concurred in the opinion of Chief JUS
tice Gummere.
The jurymen announced a verdict
of not guilty without leaving their
seats.
The defendants were John D. Grim
minis, of New York; A. J. Cassatt, Of
Philadelphia; e. F. c. Young, of Jer.
sey City, and DR.. Leslie D. Ward,

COLORED WOMEN 20
FAIL TO APPEAR

New Orleans, March 27.-The threat
ened trouble over the color question
having simmered down. the national
council of women of the United States
opened its executive session here to
day, and the general officers held their
public reception tonight. No negroes
were present on either occasion.
Mrs. May Wright Sewall. president
of the International Council. said
there had never been any probability
of the attendance of a colored woman
at the social functions. Similar recep-
tions had always been given at the
North, but on no occasion had negro
woman attended. There are only two
colored women in the world entitled
to be present at the business sessions
here. said Mrs Sewall. One was Mrs.
Yates of Missouri. The other was
Mrs. williams of this city. Mrs.
Yates could not come and sent her
proxy. But Mrs. Williams, to whom
the proxy was forwarded, has written
to me that she never had any intention
of participating in the meeting" con-
tinued Mrs. Sewall. "and so there
never has been any prospect of ming
ling of the whites and blacks during
our stay in New Orleans"
The agitation will probably result IN
the future separation of the conven-
tions of the National Suffrage Associa-
tion and the national council of women
which have heretofore always been
held in the same city at the same time.
The suffragists met last night under
the progressive union auspices. Mrs.
