day after they found four sticks or
dynamite. the fuse attached to one OF
which had been burned 10 the cap IN
the basement under the office of Secre-

Jauch caused a panic when he ran
through the corridors of the building

and soon afterward collapsed when
pressed for an explanation OF his ac-
tions. He showed where the dynamite
vas hidden. and it was thrown into

The police assert that Jauch con-
fcS;cd that he secrotcd the dynamite

his motive being to make hero OF

will be examined as to his mental con-

Charles Francis Adams ID, in addition
to being one Of the best amateur yachts
men in this country. is treasurer of Har-

Long Island waterman. Seemingly, a
man may know much about wind even IL
he has never attended lecture OF any
Cambridge savant.
The Resolute has many owners, being
known as the flag officers boat, and just
so she has many shippers. Although In
command, Charles Francis Adams, I'd,
turned now and again TO his board OF
strategy, which consisted OF Robert w.
Emmons, I'd. George Nichols. John Park
nson and George A. Cormack.
The only professional on board was Chris
Christensen. Nate Herreshoff, designer
Of the Resolute, also stood on deck. but
William Gardner. who planned the Vani-
tie. watched the race from another vessel.
Alex Smith Cochran shipped on his yacht,
but only as owner and ballast.
The usual haunts of yachtsmen must
have been deserted yesterday, for all the
city's most exclusive sailors we're on the
water. Down the Sound they came in
craft of every sort, but though they went
10 see sailing yachts they did not neglect
the convenience of steam and gasolene
Judging from a survey of the yachts
I'm the Sound yesterday, there seems to be
ground for a suspicion that all the pleas
ure craft in New York waters are named
by the same man who chooses the titles
for the parlor cars and the apartment
houses.
Any other theory makes il difficult to
explain the Owyhee, the Kehtoh. the FL
reba or the Mareva. Occasionally a
yachtsman, following a well known prac-
tice, has the boat put in his wife's name,
but others play IL safe and tell the painter
TO put Idler on the stern.
The nautical man was much in evil
dence He would speak OF "a reaching
breeze" and when the astonished land
lubber sought light the seadog would ex-
plain he meant "a wind a little abaft
the beam" and walk away as II he had
done his full duty.
The Vantie suffered from greenness
herself. Many of her sails had never
been tried in a race before, and at first
they we're bit nervous and fidgety UNI
der the strain. Her various component
parts were hardly on speaking terms.
and, as Rudyard Kipling has pointed out.
a ship never amounts TO much untn she
has found herself.
There is hope for the Vantie. for when
she crossed the line at the finish her
topmast murmured Keep a-workng;
keep a-working!' and from below came
the answer of the keel, That boy;

course was to be a triangular one of tif-

to be east by south 5-S miles to the buoy
off Oak Neck Point; the second leg north
by east A.. miles to Woolsey's Rec, buoy
and the third leg southwest by west i've

This course was sailed twice over max

A prettier light weather start one

n1uvred the sloops 10 windward Of tho
line. First they headed TO the eastward
with booms TO starboard reaching along,
with the Resolute on the Vanitie's wealth
er beam. Then both jibed to port. the
Herreshoff boat being still to windward
and both heading west.
At one minute before the starting
signal both had gybcd again, and az they
approached the line on the port tack
the Resolute's men broke out her baby
jibtopsail, the Nanitie's crew smartly
following suit 80 seconds later.
The wind was north-northeast. and Just
before the Resolute crossed the line, at
l2:4612, strong puff hit her Lying
down until her lee rail was almost awash
she crossed the line under great head
way just minute after the signal
The Nanitie, also with her lee rail well
down, and was away at l2:46:i6-3 seconds

Now the race was on i'm earnest. Sheets
were trimmed fairly fat on the port tack
and in minute all hands were lying fiat
faces down on weather sides OF the decks
of both yachts. while the thousands on
board the accompanying fleet of steam
and power yachts watched every move
made on the bronze Vanitie and the white
Resolute with her big single jib, which
set TO perfection.
II was apparent at once that all the
Resolute's sails set better than those OF
the Vanitle There were many wrinkles
in the Gardner yachts mainsail and the
jibtopsail bulged above and below the
clew. while the staysail and jib were
slack in the upper part Of the leach
Soon after the start when the wind fell
lighter, Captain Dennis placed most Of
his men on the lee side of the deck to give
her a heel, and while Captain Harry Han
watched the trim Of the sheets. Dennis
gradually luffed her out across the Reso-
lute's wake.

MORE MONEY
THAN EVER
Farmers OF The United
States Will Be Better
Paid Than Ever

Farmers of the United States
willreceiye more money for their
crops this year than ever before
in the history of the country.
Not only is the wheat crop by far
the largest ever raised, but the
returns that can be counted on.
safely for this crop will exceed
the greatest expectations of
few weeks ago.
In virtually every important
wheat raising section of the coun-
ty the producer can now obtain
81 bushel for his wheat. Two
months ago wheat prices were
about 40 cents lower than at
present, and in many sections
farmers were not getting more
than 90 cents bushel for their
wheat.
Considerable wheat was sold
at low prices, butof the 900,00O,- )
900 bushels that will be raised
this year it is not likely more
than 200, 900, 600 bushels has been
sold at this time from the farms.
A forty'cent advance in the
price of wheat means on 700,-
900, 900 bushels $3.50, ,00O,0 900, and
from present indications in re.
gard to the export demand re-
duction OF farm prices for wheat
below the dollar level does not
appear repsonable. In fact,
Judging from the way Europe is
buying both wheat and -four,
farmers may not be willing to
sell freely at$l.
Oats prices have been enhanc-
ed about 30 per cent in the heav-
lest part of the crop movement.
On the basis of prevent values
for oats compared TO what they
we're at the beginning of harvest
there has been an increase in the
value of the crop of about $l75,.
100000. Corn prices we're high
at the beginning of the war, and
while there has been no export
demand as in wheat and oats to
stimulate speculative activity,
prices are now the highest in
years.

The act of August u, 1914. al
lows the FIVE months absence to
be divided into two periods, but
mo more. The homesteader
must, at the beginning of each
absence, file a notice thereof at
the land Office, but he need not
specify the portion of the five
months privilege of which ne in
tends 10 avail himself. A notice
of his return to the land must be
filed at the termination of each
absence.
If homesteader has returned
to the land after an absence of
less than FIVE months and filed
notice OF his return he may. with
out any intervening residence,
again absent himself, by giving
new notice, for the remaining
part of the period within the
residence year. Two absences
in different residence years,
reckoned from the date when
residence was established must
be separated by a substantial
period of residence if they to-
gether make up more than FIVE
months.
1t is thouget that some home
steaders are neglecting giving
notice of the beginning and ter
minatIon OF absences. If such
is the case, such persons will
have trouble with their proofs as
the result of ignoring the plain
provisions of the law. Blanks
for giving such notice may be OBJ
tained free from the land Office.
