the reason why.
The newspapers spread the news,

date of the new cult in politics. They
formed an organization known as THE

the congressional convention was heiu
at least 40 per cent of the delegates
were redheaded men, and they were on
deck ready to nominate man with the

shame. During the fight on the floor
redheaded Senator Smith found NM

cross Scott tells about, he went

500 to his campaign fund, although
the editor was running on the Repub-
lican ticket. When the election was
held not long ago Murdock was elected
by an overwhelming majority.

The general feeling among British
yachtsmen seems to be that if the cup
is ever to be brought back to England
Captain Robert Wringe is the man spe-
cially designed by Providence to do the
trick. He has had lot Of experience
in American waters, having sailed the
Belmont yacht for some time. He also
sailed the Ailsa for f. B. jameson and
accompanied Captain Hogarth on
Shamrock l.
Sir Thomas, it is said, has already ar
ranged to bring with him to this coun-
try as many members of the Royal Ul-
ster Yacht club as can find it conven-
lent to come. Among the members are
the Duke of DevOnshire, the Duke Of
Abercorn, the Earl of Dunraven (who
tried his luck twice for the cup with
Valkyrie ii. and Valkyrie ILL, Lord
Iveagh and the Marquis of London

Colonel Sharman Crawford, who Is
to represent Sir Thomas on the Sham
rock Ill. during the races, is retired
army officer and one Of the most pOpu-
lar yachtsmen in the kingdom. He is
the president of the Royal Ulster Yacht
club, to which he gives great deal Of
his time. He is one of Sir Thomas
most intimate cronies and knows al
most every yachting celebrity in Eu-
rope and America.

ton, will in all probability be chosen
to meet Shamrock III. Both are the
best products of shipbuilding skill In

test will be the most exciting that has

The starting gun was fired at 10
o'clock Aug. %. All the yachts were
away in an instant except the Amer
lea. She hung in the water as though
anchored. but in few minutes the
long black hull began 10 creep up. The
America was sacrificing speed TO Sc
cure the windward berth. When oRy
three yachts remained between the
Yankee and the lead the skipper eased
the tiller and bore down upon the
leaders like hawk.
In half an hour after a bad start the
America had shaken loose the last
Britisher and was in the lead. on San
down bay the wind freshened TO light
gale and carried away her jibboom, but
her competitors gained only few hun
dred yards. When she finally crossed
the line there was no other yacht in
sight. Eighteen minutes later the
British yacht Aurora arrived at the
stake boat and was awarded second
money.

The fiat recently went forth that the

and cheer him for his victory.
Several months ago, when Congress
man Long was transferred TO the sen

for his place were making the political
welkin ring, Editor Murdock in face
tious mood remarked TO State Senator
Fred ID. Smith, who was also a Titan

men of this great land had never been
honored with their proper share Of po-
litical preferment and that the time
had come for them to get "redheaded'

He cited the fact that, while ten out
of every hundred freeborn Americans
had a brick hued nimbus about their

EDWARD II. BEARDSLEY.
In the highest and best sense the
criterion by which a man may be
judged as to his usefulness in the
world is: "What is his relationship to
his brother MANI" Has he the help
full, kindly spirit? While being just
in his dealings and fair to himself, is
his attitude towards others helpful,
or is he fault finding, selfish, veri-
table cynic, despised by his neighbors
and others? The subject of this
sketch is one who may be judged by
the first high standard, a man who
desires to be just and who to the poor
and rich alike always extends the
friendly and helpful hand. A mans
success in life should not be measured
by dollars but by character, and the
attitude he maintains towards society.
Such man is Edward II. Beardsley,
who the writer has known intimately
for IL years, and it should be said this
little sketch appears without MI
Beardsley's knowledge or consent. MI

the home of the Beardsley family for
half century. While studying at the
district schools and at-the Suffield Lit
erary Institute young Beardsley &C
quired knowledge of the tanners and
curriers' trade from his father, whom
he eventually succeeded in business,
later dropping some features and add
ing others until his establishment
assumed it's present scope in the horse
goods line and general merchandise.
He was appointed postmaster of New
Preston by President Harrison in 1889,
but four year later was obliged to give
way to the democratic appointee Of
President Cleveland. He has been
loyal and enthusiastic member of the
Masonic fraternity since 1883, men,

great acceptance as district deputy of
the grand lodge for Litchfeld county.
He has served as auditor, grand juror
and tax collector. Mr. Beardsley doubt
less has made mistakes in life, but
where is the man who has not? But
more conscientious citizen and loyal
and true friend does not exist. He has
a host Of friends throughout the Ma
sonic lodges of his district who will be
glad to see him advanced higher in the
grand lodge. Mr. Beardsley is married
and has two sons, one of whom, George
Beardsley, is the affable assistant to
Postmaster Frank J. HosfOrd. THE
BEE does not believe in reserving all
the good things to be said about true
friends for post-morten tributes and so
this sketch appears.
