over a triangular course, ten miles a
leg, the first leg south, the second
northeast by east, half east, and the
third northwest by west half west. The
wind at that time was due south and
had begun to freshen.
In the preliminary jockeying Captain
Barr of the Reliance got the windward
position, blanketing the Shamrock III,
and chung to it though various maneu-
vers until the warning gun had been
fired, when Captain Wringe had got
clear of the Reliance.
At the sound of the gun the Sham
rock III bore off to leeward and away
from the Reliance, while Captain Barr
tackled under the stern of the Naviga-
tor as the starting gun was fired, and
crossed the line only thirty-six seconds
behind the gun. The Shamrock kept
away from the line almost until the
handicap gun, then tackled and crossed
it handicapped by nineteen seconds, for
which allowance was made to her The
nineteen seconds were dead loss. The
official starting time was: Reliance,
11:00:36; Shamrock, 11:02:00
The actual starting time of the Sham
rock was 11:02:19. Both went across the
line on the starboard tack, but held
that tack for not more than minute
and then headed for the Jersey coast.
Once fairly away Captain Wringe of
the Shamrock resumed his tactics Sof
the previous race, gave his boat a good
rapful and sailed through the Reliance's
lee and otn1ndeq her lee bow, while
Captain BarF piffShed the Reliance close
into the wind and began to cover the
distance to the windward mark, Cap
tain Wringelsi mhneuver gave him a
wind clear of interference and when
once satisfied the Reliance could not
blanket his boat he fiattened in his
sheets and began to'point closer to the
wind. Captain Barr, however, was nur-
sing the Reliance up to windward in
mastery fashion.
Half an hour after the start the dis
lance between the Two boats had wild
ened materially, the Reliance pointing
higher and the Shamrock footing fast
err.
They were half a mile apart when
they tackled off Highland Beach, at H.:
AZ. The Reliance was the first to go
about, When both yachts We're filled
away 1t was clear that the Reliance was
gaining. The Shamrock was far astern
and very little to windward of the Re-
liances course. Meantime, the wind
had been increasing and was now blow
ing at the rate of seven knots. The
Shamrock III was heeling prettily,
moving through at a fast clip and MAX
ing much more fuss under her bows

THREW DEAD
INFANT AWAY
BODY OF STILL-BORN WHITE
CHILD FOUND NEAR JOHN
ENA's BRIDGE THIS MORNING.

A 'stil-born white child was found
this morning in the creek close to the
John Enas bridge at Waikiki. Some
natives discovered the body. The body
was that of a girl. had blue eyes and
was evidently about a seven months
child
The body had been wrapped in white
paper, placed in a small cracker tin
box, the lid placed on the box, and
then been thrown over the bridge. The
party who wanted to get rid of the body
evidently hoped that the high tide
would float the box out to sea. The
box was thrown into the water evident
ly about 8 o'clock last night, the water
was low and did not flow into the creek
and carry the box out. The object was
found resting in the mud with only a
little water flowing in the bed of the
stream.
The police were notified and ordered
the body buried. There is no trace Of
the identity of the person who threw
the body into the creek. There were
no marks of violence on the body and
all of the circumstances and the gem
eral appearance of the child, went to
show that it had been still born.

most their best point of sailing and one
upon which the Reliance has often de-
monstrated that she as faster than any
racing craft ever built. She was heeled
Just enough to bring her long over
hangs to bear and give her the benefit
OF her greater sailing length.
The guide vessel, Coastwise, was
scurrying along ahead of her at full
speed, but the Reliance was overhaul
ing her inch by inch, and when the
lightship hove fair liz sight, about two
miles away, was not more than a quar-
ter of a mile astern of the guide vessel.
A mile further on the Coastwise sheer
ed off and gave the Reliance a clear
course to the finish. AS the wind soft
ened the Reliance first set a baby jib
topsail, which the Shamrock had been
carrying since turning the second mark,
and then exchanged it for big reach
ing jig topsail, in which the Shamrock
promptly followed suit.
When the Reliance was quarter OF a
mile from the finish line the wind died
away considerably, but the Shamrock
III came booming along, carrying a
splendid breeze and fast oVerhauling
the leader. 1t looked as though the
British boat was going to get within
her time limit, but the finish line was
too close, and the Reliance slipped
across it with one minute and nineteen
seconds to spare. The Shamrock III
finished in a softening wind and both
boats were taken in tow to Sandy Hook.

On Thursday the writer went to

A. Chiles, of this city and j. w.
Riley, of Morehead, going to Olive
Hill in connection with the bank
ruptcy proceedings of the Peoples
Cooperative Company under the
management of U. S. G.. Tabor.
Neither of these gentlemen gave
us any information concerning the
business, but so far as we heard in
town, the impression is that the
throwing of the company into bank
ruptcy was unnecessary and would
be injurious to the firm
For more than weeK the two
large fire brick plants had been
practically at stand still because
of a strike. We were informed
that about 400 persons are idle.

pay role.
The contention appears to be
over recognition of the Union.
What the result will be, time will
reveal. One thing is sure and that
is that several hundred dollars in
wages are being lost daily, and
trade in the stores is light, and of
course the plants are delayed in
filling orders.
Considerable excitement had pre-
vailed in the town for several days

Wilson, wife of the postmaster and
merchant, who had been somewhat

boarding with the family, for i
was learned that on a certain day
she had purchased an arsenical prep

Another $50, 900 for LOrenz.


Prof. Adolph Lorenz, whe earned

go from Vienna in October last and

lita Armour, will return here about

ed professor, after he had performed
the wonderful task that had upset
all the theories of the surgery of
the knife, Gin six months the case
may be taken off an the limb will

The six months have nearly
passed. Little Lolita has gained
strength and spirits The congen-
ital cripple has become a lively lit
tie girl, awaiting only that final re-
lease from the coat of mail to be-
come like other children of her age.
When, after two hours of won
drously skillful manipulation, Prof.
Lorenz put back into its socket the
bone that had so long been out of
place, doctors all over the world
admitted that the learned man of
science had made good his most
daring theories, and the million
aire father of the child gladly paid
one of the largest fees on record.
Every prediction of the professor
as to the child's improvement has
been fulfilled. Any skilled sur
geon could now, it is admitted, re-
lease from its plaster Of paris pris-
