He took up a fresh herring, painted it

We paint our herring now with this

HARRY PORTER
 BEAT ERRICKSON
 IN TWO CONTESTS

Egou Errickson. the high jumper of the Mott Haven A. c. club who has been touted as the worlds champion for several weeks in view of the fact that he was the winner of the high jump at Seattle recently has still got to take his hat off to Harry Porter. of Bridgeport. Porter and Erickson met at Montreal last Wednesday and at the. N. Y. A. O. field at Travers Island last Saturday. In both in- stances Porter was the winner. jump ing 6 fit. 2 in. at Montreal and fit. at Travers Island. Errickson hoped to beat Porter and the Mott Haven A. e. members very strenuously expressed their belief that their man would win.
 The reason that Erickson made such a showing at Seattle was that Porter or none of the members of the Irish-American A. c. made the jour ney to the coast.
 At the city hall this morning Com mander Frank Marble of the Vermont was introduced to the champion high Jumper The commander who is a big fellow himself looked, up at Porter who stands over fit inches and said: 'It seems to me you cover a great deal of territory without jumping"

 LEAVES TOMORROW
 FOR PACIFIC COAST

Lieut.. Walter Suspicion, the well known bottler, leaves Bridgeport to- morrow morning for New York where he will join the "Bottler Tourists" and Fest RummlerS'' on a. twenty-five days trip to the Seattle exposition and the annual national convention of bot tiers at St. Paul, Minn. Iy,,e Eastern men who will go on the trip will leave New York tomorrow afternoon on a magnifcently appointed special train which will be known as the "Bottlers' Special" The train will consist of six coaches, including baggage car, club car, dining car, ten room compartment car, two seven state room and two drawing room cars, and six state room observation and drawing room cars.
 A special conductor and a crew of attaches will be in charge and will handle the train from the time it leaves New York until it's return. All meals will be served on the train and trunks will be accessible in the bag gage car at any time. The party will make little side trips to and stops at the following places: St. Louis, Mo-; Kansas City, Mo-; Grand Canon, Ari- zona; Los Angeles, Cal; Santa Bar bara, Cal; Del Monte, Cal; San Fran cisco. Cal; Portland, Ore; Seattle, Wash; St. Paul, Minn.; Chicago, H.; Niagara. Falls, Ont. At all these side places the train will be parked for oc- cupancy during the night.
 Lieut.. Stapleton is the only Connec- ticut man who will make the trip. He was selected to represent this State be- cause of his eminent knowledge of the business in which he is engaged and also the yeonnan service he has ren- dered in organizing the bottlers of the State for mutual protection. Last evening a number of Lieut.. Stapleton's admirers rendered him a little informal dinner as a sort of testimonial of their esteem and good wishes

 PRIVATE CAR
 IN A BLAZE
Colored Porter and White Cook Woke Up In Time
 to Quench Flames
TAFT SLEPT NOT KNOWING

Des Moines, Sept. 20.-President Taft was in danger of fire last night. At 1:30 a. m. his private car, the May fowen caught fire and but for the prompt work of the crew would have been consumed.
 Just how the fire started none seem ed to know. Will Anderson, the DOT ter,s and Peter Anderson, the white cook, loaned to the President by John Hayes Hammond, were awakened by the smell of smoke.
 They found the floor of the Mayf1ow- CTS kitchen ablaze. Seizing a few buckets of water, a few bags of flour and an ice cream can half full of brine, they fought the flames but it was sev- eral minutes before they could extin- guish the fire.
 Neither the President nor any mem bers of his party knew the danger they were in until this morning when the blackened and burned car called for an explanation.

PEARY'S MEN KEPT
 COOKS OWN SUPPLIES

Boston, Sept 20.-That Cooks Eski- mos never declared that he had not been out of sight of land, but that Peary's men knew of Cooks claim for months before Peary did is declared in special dispatches received here to- day from Sydney, from an interviewer on the Roosevelt. Discussing the en- counter with Cook at Etah where they had taken possession of his stores John Murphy. boatswain, and William Pritchard, cabin boy, of the Roosevelt, told their story despite Commander Peary's order not to talk. Murphy said:
 T was ordered to take Pritchard and guard some supplies at Etah. had no reason to believe they were not Commander Peary's because knew some stuff had been landed there. MT. Whitney stayed there with us. We lived together in an igloob. The first I knew about Cook was when white man came in the spring and Mr. Whit ney said it was Dr. Cook. He was there only two days I didn't give up the supplies to him. I had very little talk with him. It doesn't matter about the North Pole any way. As soon as he was able Cook went along south''
 Pritchard said in answer to the lead ing questions after reading the charges made by Dr. Cook in Copenhagen: Its all lie about Cook being treat ed like a dog at Etah. He acted like a dog anyway"
 Pressed for an explanation Pritchard finally said: q mean he acted like a dog because all his dogs were dead and eaten and he and his two men were pulling the sleds themselves. I don't believe any of the stores we guarded belonged to him anyway. MT. Whitney knew him and told us who he was. I heard Dr. Cook tell MT. Whitney how he went to the pole and stayed there two days. He used a map. don't know whether he said he remained there April 21 and 22 or whether it was April 22 and 23 I also talked with the Eskimos. There were two of them-Etuckasho and Ahpella I asked them where they had been and they said: Way north. Way, way north Gone long time Food all gone. Dags all dead. Very cold. Nearly die.'
 "Of course they said more but I didn't know enough of the lingo to get it. I don't know anything about any fight between the boss and Cook or Whitney about the supplies. We gave Cook enough so that he could get out of Etah anyhow''
