cording to the deed Of gift governing
the cup races. the yachts may be of
any length between sixty-tive feet and
ninety feet on the water line. Sir
Thomas sent similar challenge in
1907 through the Royal Irish Yacht
club. naming yacht OF eighty feet in
length.
Sir Thomas has always objected
strenuously to the rule requiring that
the challenging yacht traverse the
ocean under it's own sail. He contend
ed that such voyage was hazarding
the lives of the sailors because of the
frailness of the racing vessel and was
contended that the great sea waves
invariably knocked the racing lines of
the vessel out of true.
Speaking OF the dangers of the trip.
he said:
MY designer. Charles r. Nicholson
of Gosport. England. holds out good
hope Of success without risking the
lives Of the crew of the yacht while
crossing the ocean. which always has
been the danger with the kind Of boats
necessary to build under the deed of
gift. Had the designer not assured
me Of the perfect safety Of the men
during the crossing should not have

Sir Thomas added that it was neces-
sarv to put off the race until 1914. as
It would take him all that time to
build his yacht and get ready. He
might. he said. in fact. build two yachts.
although it was possible he would Use
the present Shamrock w.. which had
won seven out of eight interna tional
races in which she had competed In
Germany last season and twenty-three
put of thirty local races.
The general impression in America
Is that one of the chief reasons for the
long delay in challenging by Upton
was due 10 the fact that he In com
mon with other yachtsmen in England.
could find no designer whom he thought
capable of building successful chal-

Wilson's Tariff Message.


President Wilson will use only 1900
words to tell Congress what he thinks
the country needs in the way of tariff
revision when that body convenes in
extraordinary session on next Monday.
Brevity of speech and persistent action
have ever been the dominant charac-
teristics Of Mr.. Wilson since he enter
ed the world Of politics. He has posi-
tive ideas on the tariff question, and if
the members Of his party in Congress
do not catch them from his brief mes
sage, he will not hesitate to supple
ment the message with such action as
he may deem necessary to accomplish
his purpose.

Chapter One.
WASHINGTON, April 4.-Hugh c.
Wallace of Tacoma, son-in-law OF the
late Chief Justice Fuller of the United
States supreme court, for some years
a resident of the national capital, has
accepted the post of American ambas-
sador to France.
Mr.. Wallace has long been a friend
of President Wilson and he labored en-
ergetically to bring about his nomina-
ton at Baltimore and his victory dur
ing the election campaign. He contrib
uted $4,000 to the Wilson campaign
fund, according to the official returns
of the treasurer of the Democratic ma
tional committee.
Chapter Two.
(By w. w. Jermane in the Seattle
Times)
WASHINGTON, April 5.-Informa-
ton from an authoritative source to-
night is to the effect that Hugh c. Wal
lace of Tacoma has not accepted an
appointment as ambassador to France,
and, further, that no offer of the post
has been made to him. The informa-
ton given out goes even further and is
to the effect that Wallace is not now
being considered for the diplomatic po-
sition whether or not he was originally
on the presidents list.
The publication of the report that
Wallace was 70 be appointed ambassa-
dor to France caused considerable SUI
among Washington state politicians.
Wallace has not trained with them
since the inauguration and has not
been consulted about recommendations
for local federal appointments. Some
of those who are trying to obtain con-
troll of patronage in Washington state
will fight Wallace for any federal po-
sition.
1t is known that he stands high with
some members of the administrator,
notably Secretary Lane of the interior
department, and it would cause no sur
prise If he were to land some good
place, possibly in the diplomatic SER
vice.

Glen Echo Park Opening.

On Saturday, May Gath, the gates of
Glen Echo Park will be thrown open to the
public and after the winters months of
quietude the resort will start once more into
the full swing of summer liveliness.
After weeks Of preparation the resort
blossoms out more attractive to the eye
than ever. Flowers are blooming on all
sides, new walks have been laid and fresh
paint makes all the wood work look new
In the way of amusements, the park has
everything to offer that it had last season
with the addition of the very latest device
in the way of aerial joy rides. The Gyro-
plane, which is expected to prove the most
popular amusement ever offered at the
park, is decided novelty, as 1t is the third
constructed in this country, and the man
agement believes that it will be even a
stronger drawing card than the popular
Coaster. with its Ride Amid the Tree
tops, which was the sensation last summer.
AS has always been the custom at Glen
Echo. admission will be free at all times,
and in addition there will be motion pic
lures and concerts among the attractions
on the free list The management takes
much pride in the reputation that Glen
Echo has always enjoyed of being an ideal
family resort, and this year the strictest
care will be taken not to allow anything
that borders on vulgarity or rowdyism.
Ladies' and children are always welcomed
and every attention is paid to their comfort.
A new retiring room. with maid in
attendance, has been erected, and the
MANAGEMENT urges that any discourtesy
or lack of attention on the part of any
employee be reported.
Many outings are being scheduled for
the park this season, and the first bid
celebration will be held on Memorial Day.

Whereas. She brought to the discharge

gree of care, ability and courtesy which
characterized her attention to and per-
Torrance of all the duties of life and,
Whereas, With hearts bowed down with

Increase OF AlimOny.

In the case of Estelle P. Phillips VS.. Asa
E. Phillips. Of Takoma Park, this county.
which is an application for an increase of
alimony, the Court here recently filed a
decree granting an increase of $25 per
month. A substantial raise in the de-
PENDANTS salary, his receipt of $500 per
year from his fathers estate and the
increasing necessities of his four children
who are with their mother, the petit
toner in the case. are additional circum-
stances that have arisen since alimony of
SIS per month was allowed five years ago
and led the Court to enlarge the amount
by $25. The Court has been unavoidably
delayed in considering the case and allows
$50 per month extra for four months, be-
ginning with June. to compensate the petit
toner for the intervening time between
the filing of the application and the pass
ing of the order. Following is the Courts
order:
ut is thereupon adjudged, ordered and
decreed that the defendant. Asa f. Phillips,
pay to the petitioner. Estelle r. Phillips.
as alimony the sum Of one hundred and
fifty dollars on the first day Of June. July,
August and September next. and that
thereafter he pay to her the sum of one
hundred dollars on the first day Of each
month. this order to continue during the
joint lives of the parties, unless otherwise
ordered by the Court and ii is further
ordered that the defendant pay to the
petitioner her costs of suit to be taxed by
the clerk"
