GOLD CUP IS OURS.
Atlantic Wins Kaiser's Ocean
 Yacht Race.
AMERICAN FLYER MADE RECORD TINT
Harshalps Three Master, CaptaineA by ChaEIsy Barr, Beat All Fsrnsr Sailing Tine From sandy
 Hook to the Lizard.

Hook to the Lizard.
 THE LIZARD, May 30.-The schoon- CT yacht Atlantic, owned by Wilson Marshall of the New York Yacht club and explained by Charles Barr, has won the kaisers 5000 cup in the 5000 mile ocean yacht race. beating all rec ords across the Atlantic for sailing craft.
 As the Atlantic passed the winning point off Lizard lighthouse at 9:15 p. p. last night gun was fired from the German cruiser Pfeil, the stake boat which arrived early in the even ing, while rockets were sent up from Lloyds' signal station and foghorns were blown at the lighthouse.
 The Atlantic proceeded for Cowes, Isle of Wight. intent on beating the record.
 After passing Scllly the Atlantic was becalmed and had twelve hours to drift At the Lizard she met a tremendous sea swell and for some time drifted
 
 Captain Barr and Wilson Marshall, the owner of the Atlantic, agreed that they had made splendid passage, without single mishap. only experi- encing one strong gale. through which the boat rode admirably.
 The record sail for one day was 341 knots. which. Mir. Marshall believes, beats anything hitherto achieved. This was made May 24 On May g the yacht made 2s2 knots. on May 26, 179 knots. on May 27, 143 knots and on May 2S. 213 knots.
 The Atlantic passed Wolf rock with every stitch of sail set. Her spin maker was rigged to starboard and the American ensign was at her peak. Shortly afterward the wind dropped and the spinnaker was taken in.
 Captain Barr was hailed by the cor respondents boat. He said the At lantic had made an average speed of ten and half knots since leaving Sandy Hook.
 Captain Barr also said that none of the competing yachts had been sight cd by the Atlantic since leaving Sandy Hook.
 As the Atlantic keeled her hull showed rust, but there was no sign of seaweed.
 Shortly before the Atlantic reached the mark the wind fell almost to a calm and the tide turned against her
 Crowds of people lined the cliffs watching the yacht endeavoring to make the mark With all sails set.
 The Atlantic was commented be- cause of her fast record as a race winner and particularly because her master was the veteran Captain Barr of cup defender fame. Ii was thought by many that his skill and experience. combined with the Atlantic's reputed power in all kinds of weather. was an assurance of victory.
 The Hamburg won favor because she was known to be one of the best of Watson's models. good on reaching. both in light and heavy weather. and especially fast in light leading wind.

/ the turkeys legs shot into Uncle Toms
lap, and how che, unable to hold her
laughter, spluttered out the door with
both hands over her mouth and dared
4 not return till Uncle Tom himself called
her. 1t was etiquette in those old days
never to laugh at another's misfortune !;
but then "Parson Goodnow jest parsed
the knife over to Uncle Tom, and then
set the platter in front of him and re-
marked that prob'ly he'd warnt morn
one leg, and wouldn't he cut it he didn't
warnt ter show no partiality, and Of
course thet Civ everybody er chance ter,
laugh, and they done it, too"
The snow fell softly all day long, and
when the twilight came it was still drop
ping feecy burden on hill and valley.
The chestnut tree stood like white
| mound of wool.
'Don't let's light the lamps, Aunt Ann.
| like to sit in the dark and l want to tell
you something" She sat down on
cricket at Aunt AIMS feet, and took one
of tie wrinkled hands that were clasped
in her lap. "You got something that L
want very much, and l thought perhaps
-perhaps-I know it's good deal to
T ask, but l don't want you to sell the
chestnut tree l want you to promise me
you won't let Squire Baker have it. l
want to buy it. know it's worth good
deal more than fifty dollars, and am
willing to give hundred for it, and l
shall never have it touched. 1t shall
stand just as long as live." She rose to
her feet. Eyes, indeed, just as long as
live, no one shall touch it, and am COM
ing every summer to sit under it. I'd |
rather come here than 60 anywhere else
and | know mamma would. Don't, Aunt |
Ann, don't cry. | know inst how you
feel. 1t would be like my selling my old |
doll. Don't you remember, mamma,
how you said l might have a new doll
and ten cents, if | would give up the old
one, you were ashamed OF her? But I
couldn't, loved her, and by-and-bye
you made it a command, and then l car
ried Hepsy down to Molly Brent and
asked her to take care of her for me. 1t
seemed as if it wasn't quite SO bad If
friendly hand took her."
Ann stood smoothing the wavy hair on
the bent head. "Now, Ann Smith, We
amt going ter take it that way. She
warnts ter do it it is her own idee and
her own money, and she wants ter do it,"
put in Marthy.
I'm crying COZ I'm ser glad l carnt

THE JUICE OF A LEMON

The juice of a lemon in hot water OH
awakening in the morning ia an excellent
liver corrective, and for stout women is
better than any anti fat medicine ever
invented.
Glycerine and lemon juice, half and
half on bit of absorbent cotton is the
best thing in the world wherewith to
moisten the lips and tongue of fever
parched patient.
A few drops of lemon Juice in plain
water is an excellent tooth wash. 1t
not only removes tartar but sweetens tlIe
breath.
A teaspoonful Of the juice in small
cup of black coffee will almost certainly
relieve bilious headache.
The finest manicure acid is made by
putting teaspoonful of lemon juice in
cupful Of warm water. This removes
most stains from the fingers and nails,
and loosens the cuticle more satisfactorily
than can be done by the use of sharp
instrument.
Lemon juice and salt will remove rust
stain from linen without injury to the
fabric. Wet the stain with the mixture
and put the article in the sun. Two or
three applications tnay he necessary if
the stain is of long standing, but the
remedy never fails.
Lemon juice (outward applications)
will allay irritation caused by the bites
of gnats and flies.
Lemon peel (and also orange) should
be all saved and dried; it is capital
substitute for kindling wood. A handful
delicately perfume room.

Love-Making BY the Boss

The human side of Bossism is fairly
realized in "The Courtship of the Boss" !"
by Anne O.Hagan in the December Nc
Clure's. Mayor Hennessey sets about the
getting of his second wife with the same
easy confidence and much the same
methods he might have brought to the
stealing of the city's gas-plant. There is
vast entertainment in the tale of his WOO
ings, but the lady leads him to his first
defeat. Anne O'llagan knows hertypes.
The Mayor is a m lister character sketch
and the little side lights on the workings
of the inner wheels might illuminate the
political situation in any town of the
land.

assurance that in about five years the
work will be completed.


Political interest in the past few davs
has turned largely toward "Uncle Joe"
Cannon who az the next speaker of the
House will have the making or blocking
OF great deal OF legislation. Mr.. Cannon
after his first visit to the White House
admitted what he would not admit before,
the possibility OF railway rate legislation
at the coming session. But lie has come
out in fiat footed statement against
tariff legislation and there is going to be
hard fight over this. The President
feels that he has the country behind him
on the tariff revision plan as well as on
rate fixing and the visit of the shoe men
the other day, headed by ex-governor
Douglas of Massachusetts, indicates that
he is going to have some warm support.
There are some more business delegates
that are coming to Washington on the
same errand, and Speaker Cannon, astute
politician as he is, will find he has all his
work cut out if he intends to block consid-
Grafton OF the tariff, and as he contemp-
tuously expressed it, prevent the country
being held up by the tail this winter"

Closing Exercises Of the Schools

The Optic regrets lack Of space to
treat comprehensively the interest
ing school exercises that were given
in the east side school yesterday after
noon and this afternoon and on the
west side last night. They were sach
as to reflect much credit on both pu-
pills and teachers ana to afford graft
fication TO all the parents and patrons.
The schools have done excellent work
during the year that is closing. The
west side schools close for the summer
vacation today and the east side
schools will close next Saturday.
A great many interested grown-ups
attended the exercises at the. Baca
avenue school yesterday. All the
rooms below the high school held ex-
!ercises, The guests congratulated
the participants and teachers heartily
upon the successful programs. Almost
all of the eighth grade pupils have
passed the examination leading to the
high school, and next year a four
years course will De given.
This afternoon all the grades in the
Douglas avenue school held exercises.
Songs, recitations and cleverly per-
formed little plays were the leading
features. Work done by the children
in all the grades was displayed 1t
was in the highest degree creditable.
Especially notable was the art work
by the pupils of Mrs. Douglas room.
