Percivai's Premiums.

New York Sun: His cheeks were
sunken and his mouth was drawn. His
breath came in painful wheezes. But
still he pulled u. One more box of
cigarettes and Percival would have
enough coupons for a baby grand piano.
An hour later and his task was COM
pleted. He counted his coupons to make
sure. There were 100000 of them ex-
actly. He packed them tidily IN a soap
box and dispatched them to the cigar
cite factory.
Did Percival get his baby grand?

garding her in his turn.
The impression she received was that
n had seen any one quite so
determined looking In her life; but she
liked his face, and though him quite as
good looking as his sister.
She did not trouble to bestow further
thought upon him, and little imagined
that h had made a very deep impress
sion on him.
BY the time Mile had reached the
top Of the bridge and Joined the Others
Gus had already taken complete pos
session Of Ethel, who now, after affec-
tlonately greeting Mile, casually in
troduced her brother, and proceeded to
march off with Gus, leaving Mile and
Wilfred to bring up the ear.
Wilfred was most certainly bent on
doing his best to please and interest
his companion, but Mile was not in q
very amiable temper.
First, she was disappointed at not be-
ing able to walk with Ethel, and sec
ond1y she noticed, with severest disap-
prevail, that Wilfred had in his button
hole a bird Of Oxford blue Identical with
the ones h and Gus had so ~disdained.
She responded co1dly to Wilfred's
overtures, and in despair he reverted
to the weather for the third time, and
added:

miringly at Mile.
She had on a black coat and skirt

SIR THOM4S'S SIDE.
Ills Secretary speaks OH the Sea"anliaka
Club Dinner No clash with ROOse, cit.

CHICAGO, Sept 10 Sir Thomas Lipton's
side on the Roosevelt Seawanhaka CORN
THAN Yacht Club dinner was made PLAIN
to-day by Sir Thomas'S secretary. John
West wood. who said:
"The stories that have been printed about
this matter are entirely false. In the first
place Sir Thomas would not have to be in
vited, either formally or otherwise, to be
present at the Seawanhaka banquet, be
cause he il member Of the club; in the
second place, he never was invited by any
one, as the matter was only preached to
him in casual conversation with one OF
his friends; and in the thirdd place. he
could no, have gone if he had been invited,
rs he is 90 closely pressed for time.
THUS. there has been a great deal of fuss
and unpleasant comment over very small
matter that never had the slightest tounda :
ton In fact, in no way has there been any
clash bel ween Sir Thomas and President
Roosevelt. have reason TO believe that
they admire each other exceedingly and
have much in common"

following lei ter:
THE committee has been appointed by

New lorI, city 10 present plans TO the citi-
IONS of Cincinnati requesting subscriptions
TO the proposed Upton testimonial equal
in amount 10 that being raised in other
cities in the Middle West. Subscriptions
from 10 cents up will be acceptable, as the
desire is to make the fund as far reaching
and popular as possible.
sir Thomas Upton is recognized all
over the country as a sportsman of the
highest type. ard an expression Of good
feeling, rs will DO shown by the proposed
testimonial is certainly worthy Of con-
siderat ion. Any one desiring to subscribe
can do 30 by sending an amount to the Union
Savings Bank and Trust Company, which
will gladly take charge Of the fund for this
purpose.

The President, when he heard about the
wreck later expressed great concern. ana

possible for the Sylph to do something to

The Sylph anchored at Twenty-third

up within hailing distance of the Sylph,

President Roosevelt and his party on
board The Sylph made the run from Oyster
Bay TO Ellis Island in a storm of wind and
rain which drenched the deck Of the Gov
ernInen Yacht and drove all the party into
the cramrel quarters below for protect ion.
The wind al times during the trip blew
almost with the velocity of a hurricane,
and the Sylph was tossed and buf'e,ed
badly by the waves but there was no cause
for serious concern as 10 her safety.
1t was 10 o clock when the President and
his party left Oyster Bay. The party was
composed of Mrs Roosevelt and a friend,
Mrs Richardson of this, city; Prof.
A. B. Fart OF Harvard, P'of. J. b, Moore
of Columbia Grant La Fargo. Jacob Riis
and Secretary Loeb.
AT the time Of the start slight wind was
blowing and rain was falling in a drizHle.
As the Syph poke1 her nose out into the
Sound, however, the force of the storm
increased. The wind was from the south
east, in the Syphs wake, and the yacht
ran before it ut high speed. Mrs. Roose-
welt and Mrs. Richardson went below soon
after the trip began. but the President and
the Other men in the party remained ON
deck until the Sylph got down to Fort
Schuyler. Then he wind struck her with
full force Big waves piled up over her

the President Is friends climbed down into
the stuffy sleeping rooms Ms quickly as
possible. Mr. Roosevelt was he last TO
go down. He appeared To enjoy the storm,

The Daily Neins prints statement OF
a similar tenor, but less precise.
While the pro-insurgent correspondents
a, Sofia continue to declare that war be-
,vaen Turkey and Bulgaria is inevitable
the opinion at Vienna inclnes to the con-
trary view.
The Vienna correspondent OF the Standard
saws that the Bulgarian note to the Powers
l., far more moderate than Premier Pet =
roFs statements to the foreign corre-
.pondents and confirms the idea that Bull
garia is anxious to avoid conflict for
which she is not prepared.
In support of this idea the correspondent
Of the Standard points out that years ago
the Bulgarian army adopted the Austrian
Mannicher rife. This fact ia acting as
a check on Bulgaria's warlike intentions,
AS without the consent of Austria the scanty
store of rifles and cartridges cannot be re-
penished.

men, are Offering to serve. On the other
hand. several foreigners have already
,oined the insurgents, who have received
them with hearty welcome.
Among ro-day's assertions from pro
Macedonian sources is one from Sofia
which declares that Macedonia and Adrian
