pears to be absolutely unique Ii the known
creation; but Of course astronomers are too
conservative to say that no other like 1t will

But they seem to think that our earth
is very much the best abode for life ever
discovered by astronomers. Mars is the

NEwpoRT, r. l., Aug. 12-Photographer
are no longer permitted TO stand IN iront
Of the Casino, on Bellevue avenue. and snap
shot social lions az they emerge from their
favorite lair. This rule was put In force
by tho police as q result Of an incident IN
which Harry Lehr figured recently.
He was coming out Of tho Casino With
party Of young women. A photographer
stepped In front Of the party. tho necban-
lam within the black box clicked, and Mr..
Lshr grew indignent.
.Rsally, now he said. stopping up TO
tho man who seemed to be In charge Of this
predatory expedition. II think shall have
TO break that camera.
sReallyI you mustn't. replied The photog-
rapher. Besides a. q brilliant idea
seized him we have . right to photograph
you. You are public parsonage, you
know
'oh. but, indeed, I'm not,' asserted Mr..
Lehr.
Tho young ladies' Of the party bad ap-
preached 10 listen to the dispute. They
were clearly In sympathy with Mr. Iehr
In the matter.
Il think II Il an outrage, said ono OF them.
Miss Sadie Jones. who had bad . coming
out party Just before the incident occurred.
If they allow this at Newport shall not
stay here this summer ....
The upshot Of the conversation was that
0 policeman asked the photographer to
occupy less prominent position for few
days, until the temperature dropped. This
he willingly did, for he and the police
man were on amicable terms. e
Tho policemen of Newport clearly SYM
pathize with the photographers. and don't
enforce anti.snapshot orders any too
harshly.. An instant In point arose at the
first automobile races at Aquidneok, four
summers ago.
William X. Vanderbilt, Jr., tho chief
promoter Of tho race meet, was at that
time extremely averse to being made tho
target for snspshotters whenever he ap-,
peared in public. He had expressed strongly
his distasts for having his picture taken
without his permission. and had carried
his sentiment to tho point Of action.
While walking along the street with his
wife once, he was snapped by photog-
rapher from q carriage which contained
two other men. He sprang at the carriage,
Jumped on tho step and reached for the
camera.
But his grasp fell an tnoh short, and one
Of the occupants Of tho vehicle brushed him
into the street, while the other whipped
up the horses and drew out Of the storm
zone. The only result Of the incident was
an article for the daily papers.
At the automobile meet most Of tho COM
petitors were willing enough to face as many
photographers as made their appearance.

GRANEY'S DECISION.
An Authority Says Britt's Backers
Should Pay Bets.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. September 14-In com
menting on the recent Nelson Britt fight
at Frisco the sporting editor Of the Even
ing Sun has this to say:
Many inquiries have been received re-
garding the question as to whether bets
made on the Nelson-Britt bout should be
paid or declared off in accordance with
Referee Graneys decision just before the
bout. Unless there was a special stipula- :
tion regarding the referee who was to ar
bitrate the contest made at the time the
wagers were arranged the hackers of Britt
should pay. The battle was absolutely fair
from start to finish, and the knockout con-
elusive. The personality of the referee had
no bearing on the result and Jenries could
not have rendered a decision different from
that made by Graney. Under the circum-
stances bets made on Britt to win should
be paid unless they were made with the
understanding that Jefries or a referee
other than Graney was TO oficiate at the
bout.
THE question OF whether the winner takes
the title of lightweight champion is less
easily decided. Technically Joe Cans is
still the title holder. He won the light
Erne at Fort Erie and was conceded the
honor until he met Britt In his battle
with the latter he won on a foul by Britt
In the fifth round, after the Californian
had him clearly beaten and almost out. II
ts generally conceded that Britt and Nell
that Cans is still title holder simply be-
Cause Britt lost his head when victory by
q Knockout was within his grasp. The light
weight fighting figures OF the present are
fingside weight or a few hours before the
bout and amateur and professional con-
teets both here and abroad are usually
based on this weight"
