King Alfonso was the central figure
in an experience that threw the en-
tire regatta crowd into fever OF ex-
element to-day. His majesty was
aboard the Nevada when squat hit
the vessel and dismasted her. The
accident occurred in plain view of
practically the entire feet and there
was a. rust, OF yachts to- the scene. No
one on board the Nevada was in
jured.
"A few minutes later the sHispania,
Alfonso's entry in the fifteen-foot class
fouled the Mark boat and had to with
draw from the race.
The Julia, owned by Sir Maurice
Fitzgerald. won the Kings cup in a
thrilling race over the Queens course
Of forty-six miles The real contest
was between the British Water Witch
and Emperor Williams Meteor. The
former defeated it's German rival by
thirty nine seconds.

night from the Nice-PFesident's bro

There is nothing TO this talk of an
investigation" said Mr.. Sherman.
This company has never misbranded
an article. and TO my knowledge there
has never been a complaint made
against the New Hartford Canning
Company, or any OF its several
branches. This whole affair is simply

THE fact that the Vice President
