Friends Objection.

A st. Paul real estate dealer who
had charge of considerable real estate
belonging to Archbishop Ireland tells
a story on the distinguished divine
which illustrates the quick wit of the
gentleman in turning a corner when
in a tight place. The real estate agent
was caught short on some investments
of his own and his clients, and it was
decided that he and the Archbishop
must hasten at once to New York,
where they had moneyed friends who
they expected would help them out
The reverend gentleman suggested
that they go the next day, which was
Sunday. The r-al estate man was
somewhat shocked at this suggestion
coming from the source 1t did, and
said that he never Travelled on the
Sabbath, as IL was contrary to the
Scriptures. The Bishop saw the point.
and rubbing his hands together, re-
piled that he, too, had text that
might apply: "'If thy ass fall into

NALL OF RECORDS $4,000 BILL.


Comptroller Circuit has not yet paid the
bill for si7.i0O presented to tho city by the
John H. Parker Company FOR tearing down
the old Hall Of Records, nor will he pay it
until he is compelled to do so by the courts.
Supt Thompson Of the Department Of
Buildings has discovered in the records a
letter, dated June 10, 1902, from John B.
Mcdonald, the subway contractor, wherein
Mr.. Mcdonald stated that he was willing
to tear down the building at his own ex-
pense. When the courts finally ordered
the building torn down, bids were not ad-
vertised for by Mr.. Cantor's department.
The contract was given to the Parker COM
pany by Perez M. Stew art, on the plea that
the order Of the court was peremptory,
and there was no time for advertising
Mr.. Mcdonald said yesterday that L was
true that he had offered TO take down the
building at his own expense, but he added
that he would not have demolished it brick
by brick, but would have tumbled the
whole structure to the ground in a couple Of
days. What the Parker company did was
to demolish the building in such a way
as to preserve it with a view to its reerection

Nut the Challenger Has a SATISFACTORY
Test in Rough weather.

Sir Thomas Lipton's Cup hunter was
towed into port yesterday afternoon with
broken gaff after one OF the most salts
factory tests Of speed the challenger has
had in American watsrs. She had beaten
the challenger of four years ago in just the
weat her that experts said was too heavy
for the new boat. She covered the fifteen
knots of windward work in hour "a min
utes and 20 seconds over a rough sea and a
wind that was about twelve knots at the
start and increased to half gale. The &C.
cident occurred about 1;30 o clock while the
boats were hidden in thick bank Of fog
For more than an hour the pail hung over the
water. Suddenly the white sails Of one of
the racers doomed up 1t was the Sham
rock l.. and the fears of the Irish Baronet
were more apparent than before
When last seen the new boat had lead
OF more than mile and naturally the party
on the Erin expected her to reach the vi
cinity of the Sandy Hook light vessel in
advance Of her older sister The old boat
reached her moorings in safety about the
time the challenger swept within the 100
Yards Of clear vision around the Erin. She
was under lib only and her mainsail was
lowered with the gaf bent upward about ten
feet from the jaws like an inverted letter V.
The challenger was brought up astern OF
the Erin, hawser passed to the disabled
racer and she was towed inside Sandy Hook
through heavy rain Sir Thomas at once
went on board the challenger. He asked
Fife il anybody was injured and was greatly
relieved when he was told that the only
injury was to the steel spar. He said after
ward that the fracture was the result OF
sudden swing from the wake OF an outward
bound steamer.
new gaff al Erie Basin was sent for and
the racing will be resumed to-day.
