NEW YORK. July 2S-The crowning
effort of yesterdays contest by which
America retains the premier position
in the yachting world. was in keeping
with the rest of the races. which can
be summed up as a poor exhibition OF
one OF the noblest and most skillfui
sports known to man.
Had Resolute taken twelve minutes
longer to make the thirty mile course.
II would have been declared no race.
That had already happened twice pre-

race was worthy of the name was
when the boats made a dead heat

Perhaps the outstanding feature Of
the game was the Al pitching Of Cy

and a very good game at that for the
Nationals. This chunky hurler had
great deal OF speed and world OF sur

good that he struck out the first six

before the game was finished he had
run his string of strikeouts 10 u. His
teammates gave him extraordinary sup

whole game. This was made BY Buck

he redeemed himself later by knocking

And keep my hammock on its number.
May no cleave or lashings break.

Keep me safely In Thy sight.

And make this better than 1t seems

When myself shall rest on high

Where l long to rest my weary head,
Far away from all these scenes
From the smell Of half.done beans.
Take me back into the land, y
Where they don: scrub down with

Where no demon typhoon blows.
Where the women wash the clothes
God Thou knowcst all my woes
Free me in my dying throes,
Take me back. I'll promise then,
Never to leave my home again.

Please dear Father, let me stay,
Do not drive me now away.
Wipe away my scalding tears
And let me stay my thirty years.
Please forgive me all my past.
And things that happened ut the mast.
Do not my request refuse,
Let me stay another cruise.
