By Associated Press.
PUTNEY, England, Sept. «.— The
universal Interest taken in internation
al races in evidenced by* the crowds
which dally throng the river banks
eagerly awaiting the appearance of
the crews and keep close watch on the
Harvard and Cambridge headquarters
so as not to lose the pleasure of wit
nessing any work done by the oars
men. The serious practice is finished.
The crews today did a few starts
and returned to their respective boat
houses. The local experts see prac
tically nothing to choose between the
fights so far as stamina is concerned.
Both crews appear to be trained to the
hour and many people consider that
the race has resolved itself Into a bat
tle of styles.
Each, crew appears to be made up of
postmasters of tholr different styles of
rowing and should Harvard, with the
American style, win the race, the con
fidence of the British in their style will
receive a rude shock. Odds of 11 to 8
are being laid on Cambridge, but judg
ing from the time tests they ought to
be the other way.

Sammy McCllntlc's red head will

"Let that duffer put up or shut up.

outsiders think of his ability Thompson

Special to The Herald.
LEWISBURG. Pa., Sept. 6.—Over
enthusiastic friends of Mrs. Nora A.
Travelpeece, a bride, expressed their
affection for her as she was departing
from here on a wedding trip with a
mark of esteem which she will carry
to her grave. ;
She and Lawrence R. Travelplece,
both of Columbia county, came to this
place and were married by. Dr. W. B.
Thomas of the Presbyterian church.
After the ceremony they went to %he
station, and friends who had assembled
there showered the pair with rice, con
fetti and other appropriate missiles.
As the train pulled out a storm of old
shoes and similar objects was hurled
through the open window of the car,
followed by a jagged tomato can
weighted with a stone. The missile
struck the bride between the eyes,
cutting a deep gash in her forehead.
Blood gushed from the wound and
dyed her traveling gown a gory hue.
Fellow passengers succeeded after a
time in stopping the flow of blood.
The cut will doubtless leave a life
long scar. No trace of the perpetrator
has been discovered, although it is

Foreign Yachta Cut Their Sails Flat

teat Proposed
By Associated Press.
MARULEHEAD, Mass., Sept. «.—
Governor's day In the German«Amer»
lean yacht race series was ushered in
today with clear skies, fresh south
westerly winds and smooth seas.
In the light ' of the first two racfls of
the series the conditions again favored
the American boats. , Still there seemed
a general desire that the foreign boats
might win one race, and as great prep
arations had been made for the recep
tion of Governor Guild today, and
preparations made for Illuminations
this evening, the hope was expressed
by many that this might be the day
for a German victory.
The Wannsse's sail was' changed a
bit but nothing was done to make it
better and old American yachtsmen
expressed the opinion that the foreign
yachts would never win with .their sails
cut so flat.
Some of the .yachtsmen ! have sug
gested that before the German yachts
left a race be arranged for all six
yachts with the crews changed, and
the Germans sailing the American
yachts. i
The Stone wireless reported officially
that the Vim won the third Roosevelt
cup race today and' that Tilly VI, the

TALKS TO MONKEYS IN AFRICA
Letter From Scientist Who Built a
House In Wilds to Study Lan.
quage — Learns Secrets
Special to The Herald. >
BALTIMORE, Sept. 6.— News from
Professor R. I. Garner, who is isolated
150 miles Inland In the jungles of Af
rica learning the language of monkeys,
and who has not been heard from for
a year or more, was received In a let
ter to his son, Harry E. Garner, of this
city. )
In order to develop his theory that
monkeys talk like human beings, the
professor has built himself "• a house
about 150 miles inland from the port of
Fernan-Vax, in the French. Congo. He
is the only white man within many
miles of the spot. He Is a great favor
ite with the: natives, who call him
"God of the Gun." In the letter just
received the professor writes Interest
ingly of his life in the jungle. ;
"I recently , lost the dearest. little girl
monkey that I ever saw. I called her
Dlnkie. I bought '■ her when she was
about two days old and reared her by
hand. She was very affectionate and
never left me for a minute when she
could avoid it. ... .
"I learned more of the speech of mon
keys from Dinkle than I ever learned
from any other specimen. "
"If you will come here and sit down
in my Jungle you can hear' some voices
of animals without even going Into the
Jungle. I. have stood here at my.dodr
perhaps a hundred times and shouted
to chimpanzee and monkeys in the
bush and had them answer me as often.
Not an hour of the day passes that I
fail to hear them talking in the forest
as I sit here writing.
"I have done little shooting: for the
last eighteen months, because there are
no good plains near by "and hunting
in the forest is hard work. I have shot
a good many of the wild peacock and
hornblll toucan because I needed them
to eat."
Lonely life In the jungle has made a
philosopher as well as an Investigator
of the professor. Here are some quo
tations from the letter: .
"Bad health Is a misfortune; bad luck
is a misnomer. The latter Is the apol
oglc name of Indifference or inability.
"The man who tries to do things too
big for him falls. He calls it bad luck.
whereaß' it is only bad management. It
is better to be a good tinker than a
poor philosopher."
OPEN DOOR FOR LOVERS
Young Couple From Country Borrow
Parlor — New Friends Find Mm
ister for Them
Special to The Herald.
PARKERSBURG, Pa., Sept. 6.—
"Please, may we use your parlor for a'
few minutes? We want to get mar
ried."
It was a girlish voice that addressed
these words to Mr. and Mrs. Edward
Nash of this city, who were seated on
their porch on Market street this even
ing. Mr. and Mrs. Nash recalled the
time of their own marriage, not so
many years ago, and cordially granted
the young people's request. They did
even more, for they helped the young
couple, who were strangers in the city,
to find a minister, who married them.
The couple who borrowed the parlor
long enough to be married were Joseph
Fllnn and Mary Frazier. - , They l were
from the country and were accompanied
by their mothers. They got the license
early this afternoon, but were not suf
ficiently familiar with the city to lo
cate a minister and they wandered
until nearly 9 o'clock. Nash called upon
the Rev. G. F. Asslster of the Christian
church* and the fondest hopes of the
young couple were realized.

HOLDS RECORD OF NAMES
Woman hai Changed Her Own Cog.
nomen Nine Times for
Good Reasons
Special to The Herald,
LB BUEUR, Mo., Sept. «.— Probably
no one In the world hn« ever changed
his or her name oftenor than the lady
who in now Mrs. Clementine Scnuhe
macher of Kllbourne, In this county.
Her parents were named Thrine and
called her Kate, but both died when she
was only a year old, and she was there
upon adopted by Mr. and Mrs. Camu
lette, who gave her their name and
changed her first name to Imogene by
decree of court. Mr. ■Camulette died
and his widow, being unable to care
for the tittle girl, turned her over to
a family by the name of Cofflne, who
changed her first name to Bally. She
kept thl.i name till she was fifteen and
then her foster parents died and she
wan adopted by a maiden aunt of her
mother, who made her her heir and
changed her name to Maud BJork. Bo
she continued till her aunt died, and
then, at the age of 21, she was made
heiress to the estate of one of her
grandparents under the condition that
she would take the name' of Hester
Dahm. She did this and got $50,000 out
of the estate. , I
Soon after this she married a man
whose name was Pesther, and the ridic
ulous name of Hesther Pesther so dis
pleased her after the love's . young
dream of the early marriage that after
two years of wedded life she induced
the court to change her name to Wild
Rose, under which romantic title she
wrote and sold a great deal of very
good poetry.
But Cupid again made her his vic
tim, and this second time, despite the
ridiculous result to her name, she mar
ried a man of the name of Ochs, and,
although they pronounced it "Oaks,"
nearly every one else called it "Ox,"
so as to make her title "Wild Ox."
This was finally too much for the
Ochs family, and they both got their
names changed, this time to Schuhe
macher, and, Inasmuch as her husband
did not like the • fancy name of Wild,
they made the first name Clementine,
so that the woman who had been, re
spectively, Kate Thrine, Imogene
Camulette, Sally Cofflne, Maud BJork,
Hester Dahm, Hester Pesther, Wild
Rose and Wild Ochs has now. at last,
and she hopes permanently, become
Clementine Schuhemacher.

mines |n this vicinity.
■ It has been known for years that sev
eral of. the veins of coal mined in this
county passed through the river at a
point just below; the city. Until recent
yearj the river has been too high to per
mit -of much of the coal being taken
out. No one has ever gone on record
as laying claim to the coal,, and while
it . was quite generally known to exist
there has been no move toward remov
ing or using it.' ■■ ■ ■:'• .
Recently several men who were Idle

teams . used in hauling it. The coal
when excavated showed a good qual
ity and the men made hay while the
sun shone.
