Antoinette M. CT Epoch
 Making Cratt - CoU-
 cred Ninev-three Miles IT. ct Rate of Almost Thir-i ty-one Miles an Hour
 or Itakan Coarse.

The sensational record of the auto boat Antoinette III. at the Lake Garda Qtalyl meet places her in class by herself. aside from other features which mark her as an epoch making production. She is the fastest motor boat tor auto boat in the world.
 She has heen improving her per formance at each appearance and has made and broken several worlds rec ords for her class. Her latest perform ance. that at Lake Garda, was to cover 150 kiiometers 93.15 statute miles, in 8 hours 2,mlnutes 42 seconds. or at the rate of 30A miles per hour-truly a re- uarkable performance for a boat only little over twenty-six feet long.
 But this Is not her only claim to at tention. When La Rapiere defeated boats of greater size aud power at Monaco and made new records for speed. endurance and reliability with each succeeding appearance. she was hailed as a wonder And she was, for she carried the largest power ever In- stalled in a twenty-six foot hull. and carried It successfully in all weather without racking herself to pieces. She looked to be the most successful Euro pean production of 1905. when she met an untimely end by striking rock at the LueeTne meet. Now Antoinette III. comes forward to take her place and accomplIshes even more wonderful re- suits.
 Not since Standard electrified the boating world with reports of phe- speed and inaugurated the day of reversible motors has & boat or engine appeared which promised so much for the future of the gasoline

FINALLY VERY LOW.

At an early hour this morning young Leo McNally was lowering be- tween life and death at St Yincent's hospital. The slender thread that holds life in his paralyzed body was expected to snap yesterday. Nothing but his strong constitution and won derful vitality has sustained him since the fatal football game last Thursday. Up to yesterday afternoon McNally was able to recognize and speak to his friends but last evening he grew much worse and was not even able to answer to questions in a whisper. He has taken no nourish- ment for two days and all that the nurse can now do Is to moisten his lips with water.

ABILITY NOT HEREDITARY.

 Fair Oarsmau.

Son of Coach Ten Eyck Is Only q
 Fair Oarsman.
 That the mastery of sculling Is not hereditary, as many have supposed in recounting the aquatic accomplish 'ments of the Ten Eyck family, is evil denced by the withdrawal of James A. Ten Eyck, IT,, from the association sculling event at Baltimore The proudest feather in the cap of young Ten Eyck is that he is the son of the professional coach of Syracuse univer- sity and grandson of an even greater oarsman than the paid mentor of the Salt City university ever was. They often say that young Ten Eyck's great grandfather used to break his rivals hearts in boat pulling contests more than century ago. ga
 The blood strain of champion de scended to Edward Hanlah Ten Eyck, soIf of "Jim," but there 1t must have stopped. for Jim junior Is not apromis- ing blade. He lacks the finish of a thorough seuller and he hasn't the grit of his brother. Edward Hanlan. The moral is simple. Young Jim began to row unattended before he had any business to. He formed objectionable habits of oar motion, which his father, wise and patient as he Is, has been nable to correct
 Youthful Jimmy will have to start ! over If he hopes to become a cham ion. His style is awkward. his speed Hly fair and he expels a lot of energy ftlch might be utilized If be only Js'ed properly. but the chances are hat he never will.

v1oLArrons OF SMOKE Law.
Jury Trial Demanded in One Case,
Fine in the Other.

There were two cases under the smoke
law In the Police Court this morning upor
informations filed yesterday by Inspector
Wollard of the health department. F. H
Duehay of the Rochanbeau apartment
house, which is located on Connecticut
avenue between II and ] streets, was the
i first to answer. Attorney Maddox repre-
sented Mr.. Duehay, and after entering a
plea of not guilty a jury trial was demand
ed, and $50 collateral was deemed sufficient
by the court.
Charles w. Holmes, assistant treasurer
of the George Washington University, al
the corner of H and 18th streets northwest
was next called, and when asked by the
clerk as to how he cared to plead replied
that he presumed the information sworn
to by Inspector Wollard was correct, and
plea of guilty was entered.
The smoke inspector testified to the vio-
lations, giving the particulars, and alleged
that Mr.. Holmes was in charge of the
building.
Mr.. Holmes stated that the system to
prevent smoke employed at the building
had been rigid, but when the alleged viola
ton occurred the regular fireman was at
home sick and a new man, who did not
quite understand how to feed the furnace,
was in charge.
"The inspector will say that the stack
on the university building, so far as the
smoke law is concerned, has been a model
one" continued Mr.. Holmes, land as far
as we are concerned the smoke law will
never affect us as long as we have our
under control, so that we will hardly be
accused again of violation of this law"
Judge Scott imposed fine of $40, which
was paid.

Lecture on Porto Rico.

At the Shiloh Baptist Church last night
Mr.. James A. Sample gave an illustrated
lecture about what he saw while in Porto
Rico.
He said that in the spring of 1900 Con-
gress passed law providing for the re-
demption of the Spanish provincial money
of Porto Rico in money of the United
States, and that Mr.. William P. Watson
and himself were appointed special agents
for the exchange. They spent four months
ON the island, during which time they WIS.,
tied the principal cities and towns, travel
ing by carriage, rail and steamer. Mr..
Sample gave graphic portrayal of the
characteristics of the people as they i'm
pressed him, the buildings, roads, scenery
climate, etc. He spoke of the conditions
under Spanish rule contrasted with those
under the present government and the pos
sbilities for the future of the Islanders
