YACHTS ENDS
Reliance Wins Easily in
the Last Race
Thursday.

New York, Seut. 4.--The Reliance
the American cup defender, yester.
day won the third and final race and
the series for that famous sea trophy,
the America cup. In q dense fog
which prevented vision beyond 200
yards she finished the race at $4,000
amid the acclamations of the assem-
bled feet. Shamrock III after run
ming for more than an hour in the
fog, missed the finish line, passed by it
and then returned to 1t from the op-
posite direction. AS the Reliance was
then being towed through the fleet
yacht ensigns fiuttered from her truck
and spreaders in celebration of her
victory, the Shamrock III did not cross
historic race when the America won
the cup, there was no second.
This successful result was achieved
only after four futile attempts to sail
off the final race and after the out
come had been admitted by even Sir
Thomas Upton to be foregone con-
clusion. Thursday was the eighth at
tempt to sail race. After one fluke
the Reliance won the two following
races, one by seven minutes and three
seconds and the other by one minute
and nineteen seconds. A week ago
the first attempt to sail the third race
failed and attempts have been made
every day this week. On two occa-
sions the Reliance led the Shamrock
III to the finish line by about two
miles but failed to reach 1t before the
expiration of the time limit of five and
a half hours. Yesterdays victory
means that the cup is destined to re.
main in America until England is able
to produce a genius equal to Herr
shouff in yacht designing.
Rarely If ever has there been more
spectacular finish that the Reliance's
today. After racing for more than an
hour at terrific speed through a blind
ing fog, the Reliance burst through
the wall of mist upon the vision Of
the spectators on the fleet assembled
at the finish line and, healing under
a great bellying balloon jib topsail un.
til her lee rail was awash. fed across
the finish line almost before the spec
tators could determine for certainty
that 1t was she. Once more the Yam.
kee boat had added to the long string
Of victories in contests for the hon.
ored old silver trophy that carried
with 1t the blue ribbon Of the sea.

MRS. ovsRNIce.
Tho Text Was a New Commandment


Mrs. Overnice had for her guest last
autumn pretty Miss Fairlady, a mod.
est. educated. highly cultured. but al.
together lovable girl, such as any well
regulated young man who is not
otherwise engaged" ought to fall In
love with without delay.
Henry Hailfellow became acquainted
with her, and fell into the habit OF
calling at the Overnice home rather
too often to suit the taste of proud
Madame Overnice. That is to say, he
called too often with the avowed pur.
pose Of paying his respects to Miss
Fairlady; for. 1t should be known,
Mrs. Overnice had q daughter whom
she had taken infinite pains to train
up In the way that she should 60. and
she had no objections to her taking
the matrimonial route under favor
able auspices. and was not at all sure
but that Hailfellow was himself Q
favorable auspice.
So 1t became all too apparent for
the comfort of any Of the young peo-
pie about the house that Mrs. Overnice
looked with marked disfavor upon
the attentions Of Mr.. Hailfellow to
Miss Fairlady. Sad to relate. that led
these two young souls. who were ra-
ther fond Of communion with each
other, free from foreign Intervention,
to seek the protection, now and then,
Of subterfuge-not to say deceit.
One particularly bright and beauti-
eul Sunday. Hailfellow called at the
overnice residence. Just the. reguls,
ton time before church. He and Miss
gairlady started away. as II. OF course.
they were going to the most approved
place of worship in the city But they
were not, unless worshiping nature in
her most attractive temples is the ap.
proved worship.
They went of for long, delightful
stroll in the suburbs. And they artfully
returned just about the time they
would naturally be expected back from
church.
Probably no suspicion would have
rested upon them had not the harum
scarum Hailfellow remained at the
house 80 long that Mrs. Overnice was
compelled to invite him to remain for
luncheon, which he promptly consent
ed to dc. Something in his manner
excited the DANES suspicion, and at
table she commenced to examine the
witness.
II hope you had O good sermon to-
day, Mr. Hailfellow. wherever you at
