for Cruise.

Everything is in readiness for the
start of the Chicago Yacht clubs long
distance race to Mackinac this after
noon. Nahama. the Macatawa Bay en-
try arrived here yesterday morning af-
ter hard trip through the rough seas.
The yacht had been strained to her ut
most by the hard blow she encountered
during the trip and Skipper Campbell
considered himself lucky that she is
still in condition for the start today.
Little remains to be said regarding
the other boats They have had their
final grooming, some ofsthem for sew
eral days, and all that is yet to be
done is for one of them to win the race.
The officials completed their work
last night when they gave out all the
time allowances and the officers and
crews Of the various boats. Betting by
club members on their favorites con
tinued yesterday and 1t is estimated
that great deal of money will change
hands when the result of the race is
announced.

with You're welcome, but not any more
so because you are minister"
Morrill, countered with II don't think
q minister is any better than any one
else, Just because he is a minister"
Neither do l." said Jen. Another
thing, I think there are as many good
people outside OF the church as there
are inside"
II don't say you are not right about
that" said Morrill,.
why don't you Just once in a while
tell people something practicable for
their good" said JeHrtes? Why don't
you tell them TO take care of their
bodies? How Is a man going to think
about his soul II his liver is out of
order? You are too fat. Don't you
know that you would be a better man
and a better Christian II you took ex-
ercise7"
Perhaps you're right again"

the earnest fashion in which Jeffries

IOWA LOSES STAR
QUARTER BACK
Stewart Unable to Get Into
Game This Year.

Iowa City. Iowa, July 24-walter
Stewart. formerly of Des Moines and
quarter back for the Hawkeyes for the
last two years, will not be in the game
this fall. owing to the failure of his
ankle, which he injured last spring on
the baseball diamond. to heal sufficient
ly to permit him to indulge in any
strenuous athletic work
Stewards loss at quarter will be
keenly felt by the Hawkeyes, leaving
the team without a player with expert
ence at the position. and Coach Grif-
fifth will have the difficult task Of max
ing a selection from green material for
the early game with the gophers. Hy-
land of Des Moines and Fee of Center
vile are the likely candidates. Collins
half back, and Wright of last years
freshman team will also probably be
tried out for the position.

who Is in charge Of the office during
Sheriff Strassheim's vacation. stated
last night that he would send a posse TO
West Hammond to stop anything re-
sembling a fight, and that the authori-
ties Of this county never would coun-
tenance a fstic combat If they were in
formed of the time and place of the
ARRAY.
According to accounts from Indiana
several fights have been pulled off al
West Hammond because that part OF
the town happens to be in Illinois, while
the fights have been advertised as tax
ing place in Hammond, which is in In
diana
This discovery was made by the Cook
county officials when dispatches an
nounced that Governor Marshall had

that he was powerless in the case.
But there have been fights at tn
club" replied the Judge; at least,
