Where Has the Male

Washington, November 22.-Where has
the male stenographer gone?
This is problem occupying the atten-

BRONZE G FOR
TFiE UNITED STATES

London, Oct. 23.-There has been
considerable discussion in Yachting
circles here over the report cabled
from America that the boat which
is to defend the Americas cup is to
be built of bronze and to have silk
sails. One of the Shamrocks was
built partly of bronze. and its advant-
age over steel in securing a fine pol
ished surface below the waterline is
we'll known. Some English naval ar
chitects, however. favor a patent al
10y of aluminium as material for the
hull Of a fast racing yacht. A small
boat built in England of this material
was raced in Belgium last season, and
was found to be equal to any steel
boat in point of stability at about half
the weight.
Charles E. Nicholson. who is to
build the new Shamrock. however.
does not favor it, so it is not likely
to be used in Sir Thomas Lipton's
challenger.
AS to silk sails, English yachtmen
believe they sag too much and that
what the American defender will be
supplied with is really union silk"
which is largely cotton. The sails Of
the Shamrock Nv will be made by
the firm that makes the sails for all
the best English yachts. The cloth
used by this firm is specially woven
for them and is not supplied to any
body else.

RAISE THE
LIGHTWEIGHT LIMIT

New York. Oct. 23.-Fight fans
were much excited here yesterday
over the possibility Of a real fight De-
tween Packey Mcfarland and Light
weight Champion Willie Richie, as
result OF the latter's announcement
that he did not consider 1873 pounds
the ringside lightweight limit.
Ritchie declared that as the cham
pion he believed he had the right to
name the limit and proceeded to raise
it to 1876 pounds.
There is no rule. under which
championship fights are held that
fixes the limit at 1873 pounds" said
Richie.
II believe 135 pounds. ringside, or
one hour before the fight is fair
enough. Nelson made Cans come to
1873 and Joe was a physical wreck.
Wolgast did the same thing to Nelson
and also made me make 1885,"
Friends of Mcfarland believe he
a make 1876 an hour before a fight.
