BUILDING YACHT is BIG JOB
ton Of Defender to Resist Attempt
Of Sir Thomas Upton.

The cost of building and maintain.
Ing crew for cup defending yacht.
such as will resist the attempt of Sir
Thomas Upton to lift the America 3
cup next year, is estimated to be
about $1.000.000 This includes every
thing. from the designers fee to the
food and pay OF the crew of the vessel.
This expense will be divided among
several New York men, members of
the New York Yacht club. which has
accepted the challenge OF Sir Thomas
Upton.
II seems strange to layman that
such an enormous amount of money
could be expended on one vessel, but
to the experienced yachtsman 1t Is
very apparent why the expense is so
great. In the first place, the materials
for the yacht must be of the very
best. The first step in the construc-
ton Is the laying of the keel. For
this Is used about 90 tons of lead. 1t
is nodded by pouring the metal into a
large wooden mold that has been built
according to specifications. To this
son, strip OF steel running the
length of the yacht
The ribs and stem and stern posts
are fastened to the keelson. The stern
post is the one to which the rudder Is
attached later. The ribs or frames
are set up. generally about 20 inches
apart. the whole length OF the yacht.
As soon as the frames are in place,
the plates are riveted on. These
plates, made OF tobin bronze, are very
wide. They are first oiled, then care
fully bent to the required shape. The
lower row. cardboard strake." Is put
on first. the others being built on
this row.
AS soon as the plates are on, the
laying of the deck is begun. The deck
is generally composition of steel and
aluminium, covered with light wood.

OF the masts and spars. The mast
of the last cup defender was 113 feet
long. This stick" is split in half
and, after being followed out. is
pasted together with special prep,
aration. All tho heavy spars are
hollow.
After the masts and sails are set. the
yacht goes out of the hands of the
builder. Then comes another eN'
pense. that of housing and feeding the
crew of about 60. a special schoon-

IN COLOR COMBINATION
NEW MILLINERY HAS A CHARM
OF ITS OWN.
Small Hat Is Most in Favor-For
Trimmings, Feathers and Ribbon
Are Preferred - Illustration
Shows Popular Design.

There is much to be said in favor of
the new millinery, for, although many,
perhaps the majority of hats seem al
most ridiculous in their eccentricities,
as they are viewed from their pedes-
tails in the glass cases OF the shops,
they are certainly picturesque and
conservative enough when properly
adjusted atop of the head.
The new hats show the interesting
color combinations so fashionable in
gowns. Many models have either the
crown and brim of different colors, not
to mention different fabrics also, or
else the crown and brim are one of
color with an under facing that is in
strong contrast.
Almost without exception the hats
are small, with close-fitting crown and
brims-if there are brims-that hug
the head. The trimmings are legion,
with feathers and ribbons in the lead.
Most OF the dressy models are
planned to give extra height, and the
result is achieved through the trim
mings, as in the hat here sketched
with its large mount of black plum
age toward the rear. The hat itself
is one Of the new "fan-tailed" shapes
with close cap" crown slightly
gathered, and a narrow poke brim that
increases in width at the back, where
it is turned abruptly up against the
crown. allowing glimpse of the Golf.

whatsuch a statute should provide, the New York World says:
 "On opposite sides of the North Riv- CT within a week has been plainly shown the difference between real di- rect primaries and a fake primary sys- tenn. New Jersey has rendered New York the service of demonstrating how. under an adequate law, party candidates are nominated by the peo- pie, not by a boss.
 In this city Boss Murphy named a straight Tammany man for Mayor, and Democratic voters on primary day meekly accepted his choice for lack of anything else. In New Jersey, in advance of the primaries, there was an active campaign on the part of ri- val candidates for the Democratic nom- inatiOn for Governor, and at the polls the Democratic voters decided for themselves which candidate should head the ticket. There was the same freedom of choice in all three parties.
 "On the one hand, under the fake Tammany primary system, there is Mccall, a straight Tammany man, ow- ing everything to Boss Murphy. On the other hand, under the New Jcr- sey direct primaries, there is Fielder, worthy of the confidence of the party which gave him the nomination in an open contest.
 That Tammany or the Republican machine should willingly surrender control of the party organization and clear the way for the direct expression of the voters will as to party nomin- ations was not to be expected. By false pretense they have tried to dis arm hostility to themselves and dis credit the direct-primary idea by en- acting a dishonest primary law over the Governors veto. If this State is ever to secure genuine primary reform it must elect a Legislature superior to Boss Murphys orders and the inhu- ence of all other bosses"

AnH FORKS FAKE PRIMARY

TiiE operation ol New lork's new

Sulzer for his efforts to defeat it and to pro .ide in it's stead a law that would give the rank and file of political parties opportunity to have something to say in selections of party standard bear CTS. The New York law, made by a combination of Tammany and organi- zatiOn Republicans and passed by the Legislature over the veto of the Gov cruor ostensibly gives the voters of political parties the right of referen- dunn OH the organization tickets, but Lot that Ol initiative. The organization committee, selected at a previous cleo uOu designates the candidates whose names 50 On the ballot. These names ale submitted at d primary and if not vetoed by the voters they become the regular party candidates. To defeat them at the primary 1t would be necessary for the voters to organize after ,ue organization acts and select candidates to run against them at the primary It is true that this remedy Was used successfully against the or sanization in Buffalo, Albany and some other sections of New York, but gen erally the task was too great. In New fork City, for instance, the municipal tickets of all the parties are as truly 'haud-picked" as any that have ever been put forth by Tammany or Repub- lican organization.
