Ships Break Sailing Record.

Post-Intelllgencer: The sailing rec
ord for ships between Puget sound and
the orient has been smashed by the
ship James Drummond and the schoon-
er Forest Home, both OF which sailed
from Puget sound the same day and
returned within a few hours OF each
other. The former vessel went to Ma
Mia and made the return trip In thirty
eight days. The Forest Home went to
Cochin China and made the homeward
trip in fifty-seven days.
Both vessels left the sound on Febru-
ary 13, and though there was much
difference in the length OF their jour-
neys, they both reached home almost
together. This is a coincidence that
seldom occurs, 1t is said. The time
made by the Forest Home is consld-
cred particularly good because of the
length Of her trip and the fact that
she sailed out OF the sound instead OF
being towed.

LIFTED THE MORTGAGE

Battling Nelson's Victory Was God

Regarding the defeat OF Eddie Han

by Battling Nelson. they are telllne
human interest story about Nelson
that is worthy Of almost any press
agent. However. II has added inter-
est in that It is averred TO be true.
Just before the fight, the Chicago
boy received telegram from his
mother, who is III at Hegewisch, III.
1t was a short dispatch, stating that
the mortgage on the farm was yet uri-
paid. Il am praying that you will be
successful" wired the mother. The
mortgage on that little farm IL 1880.
and as Nelson's share OF the bout was
a little over $1,000 he will be able TO
send the money home. He expects to
straIghten 1t out so that his folks won't
have to worry any longer.
The gate receipts for the battle
amounted to sS244. OF this, the Hayes
Valley Clubs share was s4122, and Nell
son and Hanlon split the remainder as
follows: s2473 for Nelson and s1649
for Hanlon. Next to the Britt Corbett
receipts, this proved the biggest houses
OF the year In San Francisco, and, in
fact, the only paying proposition for
the club.
Judging from his work. Nelson's
star has risen. He has been In the
game for the past four years, but II

that he has done anything OF note. He

Hanlon. opinion as TO his fighting
ability may vary but everybody has a
good word to say for him. There was
no gloatlng, and there was nothing
akin to It. The general opinion seemed
to be that Eddie's pugilistic career Is
yet matter Of the future He is very
young yet--scarcely old enough for the
bones to be set and for his full strength
to be developed. He climbed too high,
was too ambitious, perhaps At any

DEVELOPMENT or EGYPT.

/ A writer in the Egyptian Gazette. de-
scrihing the progress now being made
in the agricultural and commercial de-
velopment Of Egypt. states that the
country is enjoying veritable boom.
From the Mediterranean to the utmost
confines of the Soudan, he declares, the
authorities are being daily bombarded
with applications for the purchase of
large tracts of land for cotton and
other cultivation, and for concessions
Of various kinds. Real estate values
have increased enormously In price and
have in some cases attained almost
phenomenal figures. This does not ap-
ply only to Cairo. but to every town
of any Importance in the Nile valley,
from Alexandria to Wady Halfa.
Building operations are also going
forward at wonderful rate in every
direction. Those who remember the
capital, Alexandria; Port Said and Suez
or the large towns of the Delta-such
as Mansourah Zagazig, Tantah, Da-
manhour and so on, in former years
cannot fail to be struck with the re-
cent changes and the real progress to
be met with on all sides. Cairo, "the
Victorious" will soon vie with the
larger European cities in respect to its
fine buildings, its broad boulevards and
its delightful promenades.
In lower Egypt and parts of the Sou
dan the rush for agricultural lands has
been very great during the past year
or so, and the price is ever tending up
ward. Quite recently the purchase was
announced from the Soudan govern
ment of upward of 100000 feddans sit
uated on the banks of the Nile to the
south Of Berber, as well as an appli-
cation for the purchase of $4,000 fed
1ans of government land in the Shar-
zieh province for reclamation pur-
poses.
Can anyone wonder at this desire to
acquire land when it is remembered
hat in many sections four crops year
nay be reaped, that fertilizers are not
'equired and labor is cheap and plen-
iful? Such is "the land of the Phar-
lohs" under British domination. Thou
'ands upon thousands Of feddans of
lesert land have been transformed and
" means Of irrigation have been made

himself is buyer-for he is a keen
nd scientific farmer, employing to the
'reatest advantage not only the ma
i've but the best known methods Of
ultivation.

NEW PLAN OF ROBBERY.
Burglar Uses Electricity to Put Victim
Out of Business.

Asbury Park, N. j., Aug 6.--Abra-
ham Schlossbach of this place has re-
ported to the police that boarder in
his house had made him unconscious
by an electric shock and while he was
helpless, robbed him In his own room
Of over $1,000.
The stranger represented himself as
the discoverer Of new electric process
to cure rheumatism, and offered
schlossbach the treatment free. He
attached his apparatus to schloss-
bach's wrists and the victim knew no
more for several hours. Then the
boarder secured $1,000 which schloss-
bach had just drawn from the bank
and disappeared.

test Ended Last Night.
GIVEN A DECISIVE MAJORITY
Miss Harriet Tallant Is Also Gen.
erously Supported and Is
Second i'm the Pretty
Race.

Mrs. Charles L. Houston, one OF AS
toria's most popular young matrons'
has been elected queen of the 10th an
nual regatta. The final count of votes
was made last evening and shortly
after o'clock the result was am
nounced at regatta headquarters.
1t has always happened that the
friends of the various candidates have
withheld their support until the last
hour. This years contest was in this
respect no exception to the rule. The
committee counted the votes yesterday
afternoon. but. apart. from a gain by
Mrs. Houston. who jumped to third
place, the result was not changed ma
terially. After the dinner hour, how
ever, the real balloting was begun, and
the enthusiasts went at it in the old
time way.
AT o'clock a special committee,
consisting of w. L. Robb, r. G. and
III. +. Prael and Frank L. Parker
gathered up the ballot boxes. The tour
Of the committee had the effect of
arousing interest to fever pitch, and
soon regatta headquarters was crowd
ed with chattering throng. When the
ballot boxes were finally taken to head
quarters Messrs. Robb and w. o. /
Wilkinson commenced the count.
Secretary Halderman had prepared a
tabulated sheet for the final count, and
as the number of votes on each ballot
was called the Woodworking secretary |
tailed the result. At first the ballots |
were small ones, containing from 10 to
500 votes. Then Mr.. Robb called out
a ballot that contained $4,000 votes for |
Mrs. Houston. Immediately following |
Mrs. Houston received another ballot |
for 10000 votes. Then ballot con-
tanning 1900 votes for Miss Harriet |
TaIlant was called. The crowd was on
the tiptoe OF expectancy. Another bal
lot Of $500 for Miss Tallant was called,
followed by one for 1000 for Mrs. Hous-
ton. Next came ballot Of 1850 for
Mrs. Keuttner. Miss Tallant received
another ballot for 1000, while Mrs.
Houston received one ballot for 1000,
three ballots each containing 1000
votes and one ballot for 1900 votes.
Mrs. Keuttner received two ballots each
for 500 votes. h
When Secretary Halderman had foot
ed up the totals he announced the re-
suit as follows: is
Mrs. C. L. Houston ............54,527 !
Miss Harriet Tallant .......... .19,s4S ,
Mrs. F. d. Keuttner ........... .1O,S04 s
