Associated Press.
New York. Aug. 20. —The Cunard li
ner Mauretania anchored off Quaran
tine Island last night after a run over
the short course, which now gives her
all records for eastward and westward
trips. She did the 2783 knots in four
days, 14 hours and 38 minutes, as
against the best performance of her
sister shin, the I usitania, over the same
course of four days and 15 hours flat.
Her record over the long course,
which is 110 miles longer, is four days,
15 hours and 55 minutes
Two New York school boys, Walter
Brown and John Mnnnich. who have
been sent around the world for a rcc
ord by a New York newspaper, were
taken off the Mauretania on a speeia!
tug and brought to the shore. They
have completed their trip around the
elobe in 41 days and. 8 hours, a new rec
cord, and almost half the period made
a catch word bv Toles Verne's romance
‘•Around the World in Eighty Days.”
The previous record of 60 days, 13
hours was made in 1901 by Charles C.
bitzmorris. a Chic«"o school boy in a
similar trip for a Chicago newspaper.

FIGHT TERMINATES FEUD.
Two Convicts Battle Desperately in a'
Prison Cell,
Associated Press.
Pittsburg, Pa., Aug. 20. —Battling I
desperately, one to kill and the other i
to save his life, two convicts of the
Western penitentiary in a cell <>n Mon
day afternoon furnished a thrilling af
termath of the daring attempt at jaii
delivery discovered at the big prison
last Thursday afternoon. As the result
of the fight, the termination of a long
standing feud, Henry Clark is in the
prison hospital with several stab
wounds in the stomach and his assail
ant, Dominick Ricco, is in solitary con
finement, as are the two five-year term
prisoners accused of digging the re
cently discovered tunnel. The wounded
man will probably recover.
The battle occurred in the victim’s
cell, in the south block of the prison.
Both men are said to have borne ha
tred for each other for years. Ricco
noticing that the doors of both his cell
and that of his enemy were open and
no guard in sight, stole quietly to the
neighboring cel] with a table knife in
his hand. Clark was prepared for the
attack. The men struggled for 10 min
utes before the guards separated them.
CHURCH ACCEPTS THE
RESIGNATION OF BURDETTE
—
Los Angeles, Aug. 20.—The trustees)
of the Temple Baptist ehureh have ac
cepted the resignation of Rev. Robert
J. Burdette, the preacher, humorist and
journalist. When the question of his
resignation catne up there was strong
opposition to it. many of the trustees
preferring to give their pastor an un
limited vacation in the hone that his
health would recover sufficiently to
permit him to return to the pulpit. But
a letter from the pastor pnt an end to
the discussion. It is known among his
friends that Dr.. Burdette will never
recover from his present illness. He
probablv will live for many years but
his health is permanently broken. He
is resting at his summer home at the
beach and has to wear a heavy -plas
ter cast to support his back, which was
injured last winter in a fall.

Wichita, Kas., Aug. 20.—Following
the refusal of the city’s commission to
prohibit the sale of imitation beer,
commonly known as near-beer, the
county Women’s Christian Temperance
Union, now in convention here, held an
indignation meeting last night. The
••recall” of three of the commissioners
under the ''recall” election system
was proposed.
Mayor Davidson, who was elected
with the understanding that the near
beer resorts would be closed, seems
powerless to stop prohibition violations
and it has been found that one resort
which had been closed for six months,
sold 200 eases of genuine beer within
six hours.
