HANDICAPS FOR
ALL THE YACHTS

At meeting of the regatta commit
tee and yacht owners held at the Com
mercial Club last night, a satisfactory
list OF handicaps was made out. It
was decided to take the measurements
as turned in by Mr.. Sorenson, the
official measurer of the club, and adapt
them to the universal rule handlcaps
published in the year book of the New
York Yacht Club. These handicaps to
go for the new-style boats, the Kapo-
lei, Gladys, Charlotte C. and Kane
hameha; and the oId-style boats,
Helene and Hawaii l., to have the
same handicap as the Kapolei..
The course is approximately thirty
nautica. miles in length and handicaps
were figured on this basis as follows:

NEW CHINESE
TEAM, PERHAPS

Although the two teams which have
withdrawn from the Riverside League
have not yet decided as to whether they
will again enter, it is likely that, not
withstanding their withdrawal, there
win be japanese and Chinese team in
this league, as the Asahi A. G.. and a
new Chinese nine is considering to enter
a team each.
Mr.. Chas. Abe, who is the manager
of the Nippon nine stated yesterday
that he will do all his best to enter
a team and as the Asahis are the only
Japanese team which is composed of the
sons of Nippon that know something of
the national pastime here, their pres
ence in the league will be greatly ap-
preciated by the fans. Although the
j. A. G. team is playing under a Japan
ese name, there are hardly more than
three Nippons in that team, the rest
being made up of Hawaiians and other
nationalities. A large number of the
local Japanese viii support the Asahis
should that club desire to enter team
in the Riverside League.
The new team from the land of the
dragons will probably be known as the
Chinese Dragonlets and will be managed
by L. Koon Choek, one of the most pop
ular Chinese fans in this town. Koon
Chock has not been seen on the sub
ject, but he has long expressed a desire
to put team in some of the local
leagues, if there is any chance of get
ting one in. This new nine will be
made up of large number of the pres
emit players of the G. A. C. Besides
these two clubs which will probably
come in to fill the vacancies, several
other applications are now on file in
the league. However, the chances are
that the two former clubs will change
their opinions and come back into the
league.
There will be MONDAY meeting at
1915 p. m. today at the Offices of A. L.
c.. Atkinson. 1t is very likely that
representatives from the five clubs will
be present.

The popular Elleford company GER

home with aching sides. ga Royal Re-

the hands of Chas. Dickson, made big

the play has not fallen behind in its
laughing qualities in the hands of the

that they were always being taken for
each other were in the hands of Pietro
Sosso, Lawrence Underwood, and Lloyd
Edwards, and that clever trio certainly
kept things going all the evening. Some
Of the complications the three get into
provide the body of the farce. George
Hernandez was excellent as General
Rufus Stanhope, martyr TO dyspepsia.
1t gave him one of his eccentric char
aeter parts, line in which he is I'M
excelled. The parts of the crying Mrs.
Winters and the laughing Mrs. Sum
mers were in the hands of Anna Dodge
and Matte Lloyd Luce, and the con-
trast between them provided lot of
comedy. Auda Due presented Kate
Armitage, the heiress, in her usual TAX
ing manner, and Margaret Marriott in
the part of Isabel Howard, the heiress,
was very pleasing. Clarence Ferguson
had one of his inimitable German char
aeter parts in DIR. Sigfried Hartman and
it served to increase his popularity.
Ray B. Collins was the lover, Ned More
land, and he had lot of trouble on
account of the three twins. The Osborn
children had a very taking speciality
that went splendidly. "A Royal Re-
ception is the offering for tonight and

Washington, April IO.-state Senator
f. S. Neal OF Garrison, \. D.. is in
Washington fostering movement for
the appointment of al army engineer
at Sioux City, Iowa, with a view to
advancing the navigation interests of
the upper Missouri river. The Iowa
and North Dakota congressional dele
cations already have been enlisted in
support of the proposed change.
The charge is made that the inter

IN proof of this statement figures
are produced showing that money ap-
propriated by congress in the past has

Death SUMMONS
NOTED NOVELIST
r. MARION CRAWFORD DIES AT
HIS HOME IN SORRENTO,
ITALY.

Sorrento, Italy, April 1O.-F. Marion
Crawford, the novelist, died here at
7:S0 o'clock last night He was born
in 1854. Mr.. Crawford mad been i'll for
some time, one of the symptoms of his
affection being fevers which tended
greatly to weaken him. His illness
had its origin in an attack OF infiu-
enza. Death came peacefully and with
his family at his bedside. Mr.. Craw-
ford's eldest son had arrived hastily
from London. Until this afternoon the
patient retained consciousness but ap-
parently he knew that the end was
near and with calmness he encouraged
his family to bear up and to cease
weeping. The novelist's last words
were:
Il enter serenely into eternity"
Sadly he expressed the presentment
that he was soon to die, but almost i'm
mediately afterward when referring to
the approaching Good Friday, he said:
Il die with Christ
Mr.. Crawford's daughter, at his
request then read to him Plato's
Dialogues, the novelist declaring that
they taught him serenity in death.

Billy Downs Defalcations is
The Story Of a City Asleep

Downs wasn't one OF those fellows
who steal away unsuspected between
daylight and dawn, and strike a quick
packet for Newfoundland. That may
happen in the best regulated cities.
He had been taking the money for
more than two years.
Nor did he hoard the money away,
or make any secret spending it. In
the broad light of day. in the most
CONSPICUOUS manner, Downs flung the
f1ves and tens and f1fties and hundreds.
In the big soloons and grills, OH the
race course, in chartered cars, In ex-
pensiye clothes, the money went.
Billy Downs spent money like a
young Pittsburgh mTionaire. All
Baltimore knew him as high flyer.
Everyone knew Billy Downs was
spending money, but no one cared
enough even to wonder where he got
It,
The city treasurer knew Downs well
knew that ne had no money of his
own-but it never occurred to him to
question his accounts.
The absolute callousness and indif-
ference OF the officials Of Baltimore
is the most startling part OF the whole
ugly disclosure. 1t was just case Of
citing a wild, reckless young man go
anywhere his devil may care head
might read him.
They know now--too late, OF course
that such scandal as Downs was
only possible because of public apathy
towards city affairs; public neglect to
see to 1t that business methods were
in practice. at the t.ty hall
