shipbuflding skill. The starting gun
was fred at ten o'clock, August %.
All the yachts were away in an in
slant except the America. She hung
in the water as though anchored. just
why the American yacht should have
been the last away has never been ex-
planned, but in few minutes the long
black hull began to creep up. The
America was sacrificing speed to Sc
cure the windward berth. When only
three yachts remained between the
Yankee boat 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 OFF Sandown bay,
the wind freshened TO light gale and
carried away her jibboom, but the
competitors gained only few hun
dred yards. When she finally crossed
the line there was no other yacht in
sight. Queen Victoria had the news of
the race brought 10 her by special
messenger.
Twenty minutes after the America
won, the British yacht Aurora arrived
at the stake boat and was awarded
second prize. For years the "old tim
ers" at Southampton could not be
made to believe that she had sailed
fairly. 1t was alleged that she carried
small wheel in the keel and she was
actually examined by several British
yaehtsmen.
After the race in 1851, the America
was sold to an Englishman, and for
several years was lost to public sight
almost entirely. Her hulk lay high and
dry on the bank of one of the English
rivers. The next that was heard of her
was as blockade runner in southern
waters in the civil war. She was cap
tured by the United States, and re-
NAMED government property for many
years. At one time she was sunk in
Florida river TO prevent her capture
by federal gunboats
George Steers, who modelled the
America, was killed by horse in 1853.
The America is So feet long at the wa
ter line. She cost $12 600. As an illus
trafion of the advance made in Yacht
ing, it may be said that the Reliance
was insured recently for 500, 600.
which is much less than her cost. At
the time of the race the America car
ried two masts and rugged as a two
masted schooner. il was not until
after the civil war that she was con-
verted into single masted boat.

Famous Yacht, First Cup Winner,

Great Race of 1851.

calamity is about To befall the
yachting world the gallant old
America, which won the Americas cup
in 1851, is to be broken up. She is no
longer seaworthy and her owner, Con-
gresham Butler Ames, Of Boston, will
have the boat taken to pieces. The
different parts will be distributed to
yachtsmen all over the world. The
last time the old boat was in commits
sion was the day the Defender won
the deciding race Of the series Of 1895
and sent the Valkyrie H., defeated
boat, back across the Atlantic.
For more than half century the
brave old hulk has fought battles with
the sea. She was built in 1851 by Gov
ernor Steers for John C.. Stevens.
Stevens had a very fast yacht, which
he believed was the finest afioat, called
the Maria. This Maria had long,
hollow bow, and Steers fell in love
with its model, but believed he could
improve on it. So he offered to build
the America for Stevens, and Stevens
offered to buy the America from Steers
at his own price, If it was better than
the Maria. Nothing could be faifer
than this, and Steers set to work on
this arrangement. The America was
built and was beauty, but she was
nevertheless, at first failure; for she
was expressly built TO beat the Maria,
but instead of this the Maria beat her,
and so Stevens would not take her.
The America was sold to five men,
two of whom were members of Mr.
Stevens family, and they took her to
England on a cruise. The party ar
rived in the Salient in 1851, "Exhibi-
ton year"

ELK BURIED IN THE SHOWN YELLOWSTONE,
tries to drive 'em away with broom
shey're something awful"
Elk, as well as deer, are numerous.
The antelope are seen less frequently.
In fact, it was feared few years ago
that they were becoming gradually ex-
tinct. They were killed in great num-
bers in the state Of Montana. That
state, however, about two years ago
passed law which absolutely pro-
hibits the killing Of these beautiful
animals.
OF the smaller game the beaver have
probably increased more rapidly in re-
: cent years than anything else, and
their dams and houses are now found
in almost all the smaller streams of the
park.
There is scarcely any feature of the
Yellowstone park which tourists enjoy
more than the trout fishing. 1t is es-
pecially interesting TO the true sports
msn for the reason that five different
species of trout can be taken within
the limits of the park. These are the
native or black trout, the rainbow, the
Won Behr, the Loeb Leven, and the
eastern brook trout. There is no re-
strietion on the fishing except that
fish cannot be caught and sold for the
market. 1t can safely be said that
there are few places where better
sport car Se had. JoEIs. Glow.

electric car through a pleasant coun-
try. The sign which had attracted his
attention was painted on large, we'll
kept building that stands In the midst
of wide and fertile fields; and as the
passenger took in the evidences of
thrift and prosperity, he added, at
must take man Of some brains to run
a farm that has seven barns like that!'
No doubt the traveller thought he was
paying a compliment His remark was
based upon the representations Of
farmers In the comic papers and upon
the stage. Too many persons get their
knowledge Of the farmer from such
sources. Too many city people fancy
that culture and intelligence come from
living in brick houses and walking on
payements. To find "a man Of some
brains" In the country surprises them.
Tho farmer Of the stage and Of the
humorous press Is about as near like
the real farmer as the caricatures of
Uncle Sam are like the real American.
The man who buys the gold brick Is
not the ungrammatical Scarecrow In
cowhide boots and ragged hat, with
a little bunch Of whiskers on his chln, '
but the man who thinks the modern
farmer looks like that. Both educn-
tion and material progress have chang
ed tho conditions Of country life.
Schools have multiplied and improved,

covered the country with steel not
