FAMOUS TRICK
 HORSE RETIRED

Chattanooga, July 26.-(special.) )-"Jim Key" the famous trick horse which Is by birth and education a citizen" of this city, has been pensioned and will spend the remainder of his life in South Orange, N. J. The quarters in which he will spend his old age until his death are vastly better than those inhabited by millions of people. Jim" has been showing all over the country during the cation, and has by his earnings been the means of establishing drinking fountains in scores of cities, founding humane so- cieties and carrying on the manifold ac- tivities of those already established, and teaching kindness and mercy toward the brute creation. Thousands of people and especially children of which the learned horse was particularly fond, have wit messed "Jim's" exhibitions in hundreds of American cities. He, however, has been recently withdrawn from public life and will be pensioned for the rest of his days. Dr. Key, the original owner of "Jim," was famed among the negroes of Chattanooga as an herb doctor, as well as for his knowledge of corns, bun ions, "haunts' and other adjuncts of the negro medicine man. He exercised much influence among the people of color in Chattanooga. The herb doctor, how ever, had the knack of training horses and securing Jim" when he was a colt, trained him to marvellous degree. Jim was learned to perform for hund- reds of school children and the herb doc ton, becoming ambitious, took Jim on the road and finally sold him for several thousand dollars.

NEW BATTLESHIP
 IS VERY SPEEDY

Washington, July 26.-Having in her of- ficial trials fully met the rigid require ments of the United States naval con- structors, the new first-class battleship Michigan probably will be turned oyer to the government by her builders, the New York Shipbuilding company, early in August
 This splendid new ship, which thus far is the speediest war vessel of her class. having surpassed the record of the bat tleship Georgia, the present speed record holder of the fleet, will, when commits stoned next month, make the twenty eighth first-class battleship of the navy. ,, Five other battleships, sister ship of the Michigan and four more powerful and speedier at present are under construc- ton and two 26,000-ton battleships have been authorized by Congress. These, when completed, will increase the American battleship fleet to 35 in number.
 On her final standardization trial at sea, which ended at Philadelphia Sum day, the Michigan made record time. The official figures of this trial have not been made public but 1t is unofficially reported that she exceeded 19 knots. In the 24 hours straight run to sea, she maintained an average of more than 171a knots, it Is said.

SNOWSTORM STOPS
 BALLOON RAGING

St. Louis, July 2s.-A midsummer snowstorm two miles above the earth caused John Berry, Paul J. Mccullough and John s. Thurman, who ascended here last night fin the balloon Univer- sity City in an attempt to capture the Lahm cup, to land near Savanna, H., today. They travelled PAP miles, most ly through rain.
 The attempt to win the cup was given up after the bag. netting and basket became so wet that the gas would no longer support the weight.
 "At one time when we were trying to get out of the snow storm" said Cap tain Berry over the long distance tele- phone, we rose 1000 feet. We were in rain clouds nearly all night and got soaking wet.
 "At o'clock this morning, after I had thrown out ballast, we left the rain cloud and went into snow. At times the bashket swung around like a top. Sleet cut our faces and we had to keep brushing snow off the edge of the basket to prevent its weight from retarding our flight"
 The landing was made in wheat field nine miles north of Savanna. The distance covered was about 233 miles sh ort of the Lahm cup record of 475 miles established by Capt. Charles de Forest Chandler in a flight from St. Louis in October, 1907.

SCHOONER YACHT
 IS AGAIN WINNER

Mackinac Island, Mich, July 26.-Wil- liam Hale Thompsons trim schooner yacht valmore, last years winner of the Macl1inac cup race has repeated the trick. Valmore at 9:a3:0s a. m. today crossed the finish line 0:54 behind the Amorita, which had given the Thompson boat a time allowance of 2:42:32. valmore there fore won by 2:37:3S over Amorte, which. however, secured second place by large margin. The trip was made by the win ner in 42:33:Os for the 331 miles. Both boats had trouble despite perfect wealth CT. Amorita broke her spinnaker boom and valmore an iron band securing the topmast by reason of which the use of her balloon jib became precarious.
 The whole story, aside from the ques- tions of seamanship and tracing luck" which are always in dispute between yachtsmen was 'yalmore weather" Val more is a smaller boat than Amorita by IA feet.
 Amorita was built for ocean going and this year while losing the race on time allowance, made the fastest time ever made in the New YorkBermuda race.
 Eleven yachts, said to be the fastest west of the Atlantic seaboard, sped across the starting line at Chicago last Saturday at D. m.
 The Vencedor crossed the finish line at 8:10:45 D. m. tonight With her time allowance of 3:13:S2 considered she lost to valmore by 10:o5:OO, taking third place. Every yacht in the race carried every oF ;r, tla iv-l easterly breeze at the start and through out the race Lake Michigan was calm and continued so till last night, when oc- casional bits of froth on the water in- dicated slightly freshened breeze
 At no time was there wind enough to call for care.
 During the race the breeze averaged s.65 knots except until last night when 1t freshened to II knots

 ARRIVES TODAY

Hogan Ysneey. the outfielder procured from the New York State league. and who is reported to be an excellent per former did not arrive yesterday.
 It is thought that he dropped over in Lexington. Ky, to see his mother, and that he will report this morning. In case he does he will go to right
 It was learned yesterday from a gentle man of the city who was a classmate of Yancey at the University of Kentucky. that the coming Baron formerly starred on the football field as well as the dia mond. This gentleman states that Yanccy is at the present time the football coach of the University of Kentucky
 Bill McGilvray, whom Yancey will suc ceed, played splendidly yesterday, getting two hits and a base on balls and scoring the only Baron run. Moesworth states that he has failed to find a place for the gardener and it is probable that he Is lost to Birmingham. It is believed. never theless, that he will return to form and be valuable man for this or any other minor league.

PANAMA TROUBLES
 NOT EXPLAINED

Washington, July 26.-Apparently all testimony showing unprovoked assaults and rough treatment of Panama citi- zens, including naval officers, has been presented to the American government with view of punishment of the of lenders to no purpose. Only the most unsatisfactory replies have been re- ceived from Panama.
 The attitude of the government of the isthmian republic is inexplicabIe to the state department officials. Min lster Herbert G. Squires has been in- structed to urge insistently settlement of these cases.
 While the United States government mas no idea as far as can be learned or intervening in Panama with view of maintaining order yet it clearly has the right to do so should Panama fail to maintain public order in the cities of Panama and Colon and in the territor- ies and harbors adjacent thereto. This right is given by article of the treaty of 1903. The disposition of this gov ernment is to give Panama every op- portunty to prove itself equal to the task of protecting life and property within its borders and intervention would be resorted to only as a last resort. On four different occasions Americans have suffered at the hands of Panamanians. One instance was an assault of an employe of the isthmian canal commission, who was severely handled by the Colon police on Decem- Der 25, 1906.
 Several American officers of the cruiser Columbia were arrested in Colon on June l, 1906, without sufficient cause. it is al- legged. They were roughly handled and clubbed and then thrown into jail where they were left for several hours without proper medical attention. The attack, 1t Is said, was unprovoked
 Boatswain Charles Rand was killed and Joseph Ciestik, a sailor (both of the cruiser Buffalo), was injured as the re- suit of fight with the Panama police on September 2S, 1908 From the evil dence in this case there appears to be no doubt, according to the state depart ment. that the two men were brutally treated by the police who cubbed hand cuffed and dragged Rand through the streets. badly wounded It Is further al- legged that while he was in police custody Rand was allowed to lie suffering and bleeding in the jail for more than an hour without medical attention. Similar treat ment is said to have been given Ciestik Last May Charles M Abbott. white, and John Williams, colored. both Americans were killed in a riot, the former by g. rock supposed to have been thrown by member of the Colon police force Neither of these men, it is said, appeared to have taken any part in the riot.
