race, when the challenger passed the
American defender.

lenger one-half a mile from the end.
The breeze was good during' the en
tire race except, for a few minutes
when there was a squaU. At times
the wind registered as high as S knots
and the racers sped over the wares.
The Resolute beat,, the shamrock
boat for boat without taking her time
allowance. The American boat dem
onstrated not only that it was the
faster yacht, being ahead of the Sham
rock during all three legs of the race,
but had a better crew and greater
speed than its rival.
The defender crossed the final line
3 minutes and 41 seconds ahead of the
Shamrock. As it started 23 seconds
ahead of the challenger, it gained 3
minutes and 18 seconds in the 30 miles.

LOW PRICES'. THE EIGHTIES
C, W. Martin Says That Boosters
Sold for 10 Cents a Head.
Eggs selling at 4 cents a dozen and
chickens at 3 cents a pound almost
sounds like a fairy tale nowadays.
but according to C W. Martin of the
Glasgow Tailoring Company these
were the prevailing prices during the
Cleveland administration.
Mr. Martin, at that time was in the
grocery business a, few miles from
Columbia. In 1900 he moved to Co
lumbia and established a poultry and
live stock shipping business.
Following are prices which Mr.
Martin said were paid for products
when he began, in the commission
business. Eggs. 4 cents a dozen;
hens, 3 cents a pound; wool, 12
cents a pound; side meat, 7 cents a
pound; best hams, 2 cents a pound;
turkeys, S cents a pound; roosters,
regardless of weight, 10 cents a head.
In those days ope could find hun
dreds of farm hands willing to work
for 60 cents a day. Today they are
hard to find at $6 a day. Wool which
sold, in 1900 for 12 K cents a pound
is now worth from 40 to 50 cents a
pound. Turkeys are now selling at
60'nd 70 cents a pound as against
5 cents a pound In 1900.
