PATRICIA SCORES
OVER MICH|CAGO
Takes Second Contest of
Series for Yacht Trophy
by Nine Seconds.

1T is doubtful IL an international
yacht race was ever sailed that was
more closely contested or more pro-
ductive of interest than yesterdays
race in which Patricia of the ROYAL
Canadian Yacht club defeated Michi-
cago of the Chicago Yacht club.
The dominion yacht, while cleverIy
sailed by Skipper Gooderham and his
Canadian crew, had more than an ev-
en- break in luck. and even at that
barely beat the American representa-
tive across the finishing line.g The vic
tory was gained by a margin of nine
seconds and gave Patricia it's second
leg on the Richardson great lakes tro-
ply. If Patricia wins in today's race
the Gooderha mcraft will take the in
while If Michicago Is able to come
back the series will stand two each
and fifth race will be necessary to-
morrow.
Yesterdays contest was thriller
and the result was in doubt from the
time of the getting away until the
finishing cannon was fired from the
judges boat. The lead swung ffst to
the Canadian and then to the Ameri.
can. with the eleemnt of luck figuring
! prominently more than once. The
1 fiukey wind conditions favored Patri.
cia oftener than they did the Michi.

TOURISTS STRIKE
POOR HIGHWAYS

Corinth, Miss, Aug. 14.-Consterna-
ton reigned today along the stretch of
so-called road covered by the path
finder for the national tour from Iuka
to within three miles of Corinth. The
pathfinders passed over a different
route than that laid down for the
Glidden tour of 1905. The silent run
ming car plunging over washed out
roads and gullies frightened horses
and their drivers almost to death.
Hills that were steep and washed out.
roads that were through running
streams and swamps which were
flooded by recent rains. conspired with
soaked red clay roads to make the day
notable. There is yet 100 miles to
Memphis of which sixty miles is said
to be good going. After the expert
ence of the last three days the path
finders are skepticai and no predic-
lions are made as to when Memphis
will be reached.

cited Over Game Than
Presence of Taft.

Washington, D. c.. Aug. 14.-Presi-
dent Taft, as the guest of honor,
watched the Senators fall before the
White Sox at the new baseball pa
vilion yesterday afternoon in a we'll
played game to 3.
Although President Taft has at
tended few games this season, there
was not much of a demonstration, his
entrance hardly being noticed by the
fans. The Washington baseball en-
thusiasts are too much engrossed in
their ball club and it's chances to grab
an American league flag to pay much
attention to mere presidents.
Manager Clark Griffith stepped UT
to the chief executive as he passed the
Washington rathskeller and shook
him by the hand and President Taft
returned the compliment cordially.
