ON THE WHITE BEAR COURSE. JSIIE FINISHES TEH MINUTES AHEAD OF HER CIaOSEST COM PETITOR. t **iVlM> WAS LIGHT FOR SAILING. Only Two Sloops In tlie Seeoud Class FinL hed—Sport Wan Xot Very Exciting*. • Fitful and light were tho breezes jjthat rippled the waters of White Bear Rlake yesterday afternoon. In conse quence the yacht races were far from exciting. There were three contests as '•usual, one for first-class sloops, one .'for second class and a cat boat race. ' -There were three entries in the la-st 'event, b*ut only one of the boats fln ithed, and out of the five entries in the ißecond class only two sloops finished. Alfrida, the Herreshoff boat repeated her achievements of the first and sec ond days' racing by winning in a walk, •finishing ever 10 minutes ahead of the Kathleen and over 13 minutes ahead of Corona I. These three boats con • 6tituting the only entries ln the first class event. The course was the usual one ex tending from the Dellwoo-d buoy tc the j/Wildwood buoy, thence br.ck to the home buoy, and thence around the center buoy westward to Kamaley's and back home by the same course. Tho entice length of the course Is nine ]miles. j The first gun was fired at 2.45 p. m., find in less than 15 minutes the three Ml eps had crossed the line. The Al i frida started at 2 hrs., 56 minutes and jfe seconds; Corona 1., 35 seconds later, 'Kathleen 37 seconds after Corona I. The yachts sailed away toward the center buoy, the Alfrida In the lead. On the way the Corona tried to blanket the Alfrida, but shortly before turning the center buoy the Corona took the inside course. She was about. ito round the buoy when the Alfrida jibed and secured an overlap. The Corona crowded the Alfrida onto the buoy, but the latter rounded it first, ,The sloops maintp.ined their original , order all the way to Wildwcod, the Al frida rounding the latter buoy. / On leaving Wildwoed, ttfte Alfrida fetood over to the South Shore and sub sequently headed over towards the .peninsula. Then it was hat the Kath ■Jen, who had uassed the Corona, over hauled the Alfrida, rounded the center buoy, and maintaining its speed,round ed the home buoy 17 seconds ahead ;:f the Alfrida. To see the Herreshoff •boat trailing along behind the Kath ijeen surprised everybody, especially as 'the former is supposed to excel in a ' h Jif*rht wind. But this state of affairs ,5rli< 1 not..last long. On the way out again to the center buoy both sloops 'jwere becalmed, and for a few moments scarcely moved. Suddenly there came fa right stiff breeze from the ncrth l{west. It first filled the sails cf the Alfrida, and she instantly shot ahead Of the Kathleen, just on time to barely •round the center buoy first. The .(Wind continued, and both sleeps sailed evenly all the way to Kamaley's, the Alfrida. keeping from 100 to ISOfeet a head. But after the latter had round ed the buoy, she rapidly drew away from the Kathleen , which for five or ,cix minutes appeared t:> be anchored. The Alfrida increased her lead materi ally, rouivlinfT the center buoy on the h imeward trip five minut'-s ahead cf the Kathleen.

Men Who Believe and Deny Tbat 111-Luck Accompanies It. New York Herald. "Bless my soul, if there isn't thirteen of us here," said Engineer DeGraw, of the Erie road, as he looked over ths men in Kirk's restaurant at the Port Jervis depot, waiting for lunch. "Yes, and this is the 13th of the month," Interposed Warren Ridge way. Kirk, the hash slinger, was too busi ly engaged ln making thirteen sand wiches to notice the remark. "Coffee- for thirteen," he roared to the boy. "What are you fellows laughing at?" he asked as he turned to the thirteen fellows on the outside of the lunch counter. By this time Tommy Leard, the thirteen-year-old waiter, had set out the thirteen cups of coffee on the counter, and over the coffee the joke was explained. "That Is peculiar," retorted Kirk, "but I lon't believe in this bad luck stuff connected with thirteen. If there was any truth ln it I'd be out of busi ness, for I have had more thirteen ex periences than this whole gang of thir teen fellows ' could shake a stick at. Do you know that it Is thirteen years since I started in business, on the 13th of December, and on a Friday, too?" he asked. "I remember distinctly that on the night of the first day I figured up the receipts to be $13." "Kirk, you're telling one of those sto ries cf yours; what do you think we are?" inquired Dave McFall. In less than thirteen seconds Kirk had hand ed over the pile of thirteen books, each containing a year's cash receipts, and ln thirteen seconds more had proved the truth o£ ; h,is statement. "As I was saying before somebody stepped me," continued Jprk, "I was anticipating sorrfe change in the building, and while I was figuring I discovered that there Were thirteen windows in this place." The thirteen men turned and counted, "Just as true as gospel, that is," was the remark that came from each, and Kirk continued: "You'll be surprised j when I tell you that the counter around which you are sitting is exactly thir teen feet long. It's exactly thirteen feet from the bottom to the gable of this lunch room." "Have you ever had any bad luck. Kirk?" one'of the superstitious of the gang asked. "No, I've been fortunate," he remark- | ed, "and I think thirteen, has served i me as a mascot. I live at 13 Catherine street. I almost forgot to teil you that." Pie was then 1 cut for thirteen and while eating it the talk drifted to rail road topics. The explosion of the boil er of one of the engines on the Lehigh & Hudson railway,near Warwick.came up, and almost immediately some one remarked that the number of the en gine was thirteen. Four men were killed in the disaster. The flylag ex press, No. 13, turned the curve leading to the depot before the tajrk-waa fin ished, and the thirteen men turned to their separate stations InTget-yiVlrfg the train, while Kirk made up another batch of twenty-six sandwiches for the passengers who might care lor lunch.

YflllE RT pfsIlEY ALL ENGLAND INTERESTED IV THE fate of the american 'oarsmen. $\* - --"I*" • HARD GAME IS AHEAD. YALE WILL, HAVE TO MEET THE BEST CREW THAT ENGLAND HAS. HE SOCIAL GOSSIP OF LONDON. End of the Season is in Sight as tlie Ascot Ruees Come This Week. London, June 13.—The London season is rapidly nearing its end and society is now discussing- the Ascot races which ccine next week and the outcome of the Henley regetta. Whether Yale is victorious at Hen ley or not she will have the satisfac tion of knowing that tha strongest crews that can be formed In England will now be there. This Is quite a change from the outlook of last week, j find especially the case with the Lean der boat club. That organization, it ia believed, will now turn out the best crew it ever had. This change may have been brought about by fears ex pressed in the English press, as cabled to the Associated Press last week, that Yale would not find any first class crew in a position to meet her, Leander and Thames being particularly pointed out as not likely to have good crews. But the make-up' of the former crew, Avhlch has just been decided upon, but not yet announced, indicates efforts to retain the grand challenge cup. They have what several rowing authorities here regard as an almost invincible crew. All the members of the Leander crew are Oxonians and Sherwood, Carr, Balfour and Gold were members of this year's Oxford crew. Gold was stroke of the dark blue eight and was a member of the Eton crew which made such a fine showing at Henley last, year. The victory of Oxford over Cam bridge this year is still in the memory of oarsmen and earned for them the title of the best and pluckiest crew Ox ford ever had. Henley Is eagerly awaiting the ar rival of the Yale crew. The old town is already much livelier than usual, and indications point to the record be ing broken in point of the number of people who will be present. Practi cally all the hotels have already dis posed of their accommodations at prices ranging from £3 (sls) per person daily, and upward. Many of the seats on the grand stand have been sold and the houseboats are commanding a fab ulous rent. The Marsh mill house, which has been selected to be the headquarters of the young men from New Haven, Is now ln perfect condition and awaiting the visitors. It Is situated about half a mile down the river from Henley bridge, and is about a quarter of a mile below the boat house used by the Cornell crew. The Marsh mill house stands next to the old Marsh mill gar dens, which run down to the river and a:back water runs throiigh a well kept garden. The place is charming, secluded and convenient, but rather low lying. The prince and princess of Wales, en Monday, will go to Selwood park, Sunningdale, which has been lent to them for the Ascot races, and, for the same week, the duke and duchess 6f Marlborough have taken a place called Cissbury, where they will entertain a small party of Americans who have se cured tickets for the royal enclosure at Ascot, through the United States embassy. They include the Misses Brice and Mrs. Brice, Mr. and Mrs. Fairchild, Mesdames Colgate and Slater and Miss Gwynne. The Woman's Liberal Federation, on Thursday, passed a resolution demand ing reform in the divorce laws, which it was claimed, provide that a wife's unfaithfulness is sufficient ground for a divorce, while a wife must prove cruelty in addition in order to obtain the same decree. One of the finest of Romney's pic tures, Caroline Viscountess Cllfden and her sister, representing Music and Painting, was sold at auction on Thurs-t day for 10,500 guineas, about $53,000. It was bought by a dealer. The pic ture was painted for the fourth duke of Marlborough and was presented by him to Lord Cllfden. The successful bidder's chief competitor at the cxcit 7 ing auction was the duke of Marlbor ough's agent, Perry. W. A. Brady, of New York, has been busily employed since his arrival in the metropolis. He saws: "My prin cipal object in coming over this sum mer was to arrange a meeting between Corbett and Fitzsimmons. However, there seems to be no chance in so do ing, as the feeling against Corbett is very bitter. My idea was to arrange the meeting at the Bolingbroke club, but that I now also deem impractica ble." One of the principal events of the week, from a society point of view! was. the Ladies' kennel show, which occupied en Thursday last and Friday.. Tt was held in the historlo^grounds of Hclla-pd park, and was given under the* Immediate patronage qf the prin cess of Wales, who distributed the prizes, which amounted to £3.000 ($15, --000). The council of the Ladles kennel 'association Included such Well known leaders of fashion as the duchess of Bedford, the countess of llchester, the countess of Lonsdale, the countess of j Warwick. Lady Arthur Grosvenor, Lady Hatfield. Lady Helen Stewart and Lady Adele Larkin. Other prominent members are Coun- I tess Demercy Argentua, whese special i admiration is in the way of pets and 1 collies; Mrs. Baird Douglass, who is in -1 terested in deer hcunds; Miss Marie i Corelli, Yorkshire terriers; Lady Fair | Bank, foreign dogs; Lady Heathcote, ! tcy spaniels; Lady Kilmaine, black pugs; Lady Helen Stewart, fox ter riers, and Mrs. Lake Walker, Pom merainains. Another prominent open air function was the Richmond horse show which occurred yesterday and to-day. A j number of valuable prizes are to be j distributed by well known patrons of the turf. Such was the success of the pr6 duction of Romeo and Juliet by the Misses Vera and Esme Beringer, a few weeks ago, that Sir Augustus Har ris has arranged for a series of per formances of the play by the same artists at Drary Lane. The engage ment will be fulfilled as soon as the summer's arrangements at the theatre will permit. - j /.Charles Wyndham is sp:",impressed with the success of h}s, L .new play, "Rosemary," that he has declined the offers which John Hare-'*arid "E. 'S. Willard have made fcr the American rights of the play. It is not Improb- able that Mr. Wyndham will make an other tour of the United States in the near future, when "Rosemary" will be the chief attraction. Edward Terry will at tue close of the year, agai*^ $e*ume the manage ment cfj-ds Strand theatre. He will at th.s time produce a new play en titled "Love in Idleness," which is the joint composition of Louis Parker and J. Goodman. The company which Ar thur Bour.chier will take to America in November, when "The Chili Widow" will be produced at the Garden theatre, New York, includes the actor-mana ger himself and his wife, Violet Van brugh, and Messrs. Blakely, Elliott, Hendrie, Kingshorne, Toole and Irene Vanbrugh. The new musical comedy, "The Tele phone Girl," for which Sir Augustus Harris, F. C. Burnand and Arthur Sturges wrote the libretto, and J. M. Glover the score, has been most suc cessful in the provinces and will short ly be done in London, probably at the Shaftesbury. LAUREL CL*CB RACES. Several of the Members Try Their Speed. The Laurel Cycle club ran off the 3 [ minute class at Kittsondale Friday ; night and of the twelve members of the ! club who succeeded in going the un- I paced mile in from 1 to 3 minutes K. ! F. Rabe made the fastest time. E. S. j McGowen and D. N. Van Vlick, bot"h of whom are familiar with the road made very slow time. In the two mile handicap race 2Z> members entered, Mr. Rabe winning by 300 yards. The club intends giving these handicap races frequently in the future. WOOD-FRAME BICYCLES. The Chicago Times says: "The manu facture of wooden-frame bicycles is soon to be begun at Waukegan. An improved design has been prepared which, it is claimed, is more elastic than the metal-frame wheels. They can be built cheaply and look as good as high-priced wheels. This wood frr.me differs only slightly in appearance from | the ordinary metal-frame ones. It is not heavier, nt-.r is it clumsy-looking. The diamond frame is of one piece of tent wood. The steering column is of wood, the diamond frcme being inge niously connected with it. It has a wooden handle bar, the front fork, rear fork, and rear frame pieces are of wood and rather*- larger than in the metal frames, so as to be strong enough. The saddle is of carved wood. The connections are of phosphor bronze and are so made that they can be tightened at any time, and the hubs, pedals, and such small driving gear are of metal as in other wheels. The frames are flexible and ride easy and are said to stand usage remarkably well. The wheel can be made to sell at a comparatively low price, and on this account it is thought it will meet with success. Rook elm, hickory, and other strong wood will be used and will be filled and oiled." She's After Dottle's Buck Hair. Mate Christopher left Minneapolis last nigiit for Winnipeg to engage in some bicycle races with the coterie of riders that left this city two .weeks ago. She does not expect to en gage in any of the six: races, but will en gage Dottie.Farnsworth (n a 25 mile ride, and perhaps some other contests. (.T.ri-u --"Opher practically takes Helen Bald win's pace, the latter being ill. She hesitated about go ing at first, but the thought of'Farnsworth carrying off all the plums was probably too much for her. The bad feeling between the two has never died out,' and Christopher goes to Winnipeg with a determination to down Farnsworth. Messrs. Cole and Winans of Schlick &- Co. have applied for a patent on a bicycle support. This support is at tached to the frame . of' any wheel in such a way £ha,t by a, jingle, touch one end "becomes"loose and falling to the jgrcvup.d,...makes a brace or support and holds the wheel In an upright,pos^i/m thus doing away with laying the wheel down or finding; some place to lean it against. They are now making ar rangements to have them manufac tured in St. Paul and as they can be attached to any .wheel at a nominal cost the patentees think they will be come popular and in general use. BAGGAGE IS GAGGAGE. Quibble of the Western Roads Is Not Allowed. Chicago, June 13. —The chairman of the Western Passenger association has handed down a ruling on the subject of storing baggage. The rule cf the asso ciation is that all baggage left at the station over twerity-four hours shall have a charge of 25 cents, and 10 cents shall be charged for each subsequent twenty-four hours. '-Some cf the roads have been'avoiding the charge by car rying the baggage on freight'trains anl stripping eff the checks and then claim ■irig that -it did not come as checked baggage. The chairman has ruled that there must *be no more of this quib bling, that baggage is baggage no mat ter what sort -£ a train it is carried upon and it makes' no difference wheth er the check is taken from it or not. The charges against it must be en forced.
