Tliis
iy tbe use of Ilyomei you can save an
expensive trip to the mountains and es
cape weeks of stiilerintr. This remark
able remedy for the cure of hay fever kills
the jrorms of the disease, soothes ami heals
the Irritated mucous membrane and if
used two or three weeks before the time
of the usual appearance of hay fever will
prevent the attack.
The complete Ilyomei treatment consists
of a neat pocket inhaler, through which
Ilyomei is breathed, a bottle of Ilyomei
and a medicine dropper. The air taken
into the lungs In this way is tilled with
healing balsams and forms a perfect safe
guard ayainst attacks of hay fever or rose
cold.
Those who have had hay fever know
how little help can be pained by stomach
doling hi this disease. Ilyomei Is the
only scientific yet common-sense treatment
for the trouble.
It is easy enough for anyone to say that
a remedy will give satisfaction, but the
' Ked L'rofig 1'hannacy offers to refund the
money If Ilyomei does not do all that is
claimed for it, which certainly iuspires
fdit h in the treatment.
Ilyomei really gives yon in your own
home a change of climate, and hay fever
sufferers know from past experience that
this has been the only thing that afforded
them relief. By breathing Ilyomei a
few times daily you can save the expense
and trouble of a mountain trip and avoid
all danger of hay fever.

AMERICA'S CUP RACES
Contests For the
of the S
Clue Ribbon
THIS 13 TUB THIBTESXTH SAGS,
ine r anion laditlng; Trophy Wan
Flmt Drought Over Here From
Iluyl.lna In 131111 Previous Ef
fori of British Yin Iuniui u to III
eapltire It liiavailiiig.
The .famous America's cup, the blue,
ribbon of the sea, which British yachts
men have boon trying to recapture for
over liulf a century, was originally won
by tlif iauk.ee kivl nchooner yacht
America from a fleet of English cut
tors and schooners in a race a round
the Isle of Wight on Aug. 22, 1851
The trophy, which, is valued at 100
guineas, was presented by the Uoyul
laeiit squadron or Lowes and the con
test was open to the yachts of all na
tions. The cup is In the form of a
silver pitcher and stands 27 inches in
height, is 'M inches in circumference
and weighs 134 ounces, or over 11
pounds.
The famous cup is kept in the vaults
of Tiffany &. Co. in New York and is
seldom seen except on state occasions
nowadays. It will be hard for Sir
Thomas and his friends to drink a
toast out of It, as either through con
stant use at dinners in the early days
of its history or some mishap in later
years it has no bottom.
Sir Thomas Liptou's Shamrock III. is
the twelfth challenger for the cup, and
this year's race will be the thirteenth.
It was 1 t until 1S57 that the owners
of the yacht America, John C. Stevens,
Hamilton Wilkes, George L. Schuyler,
J. r.eekman Flndlny and Edwin A.
Stevens, presented it to the yacht clubs
of the world, through the Mew York
Yacht club, as a perpetual interna
tional challenge trophy.
tVlthough the cup was presented to
the club in 1S57, it was thirteen years
later, or In August, 1870, before the
first race for the cup was sailed, when
the English schooner yacht Cambria,
owned by James Ashbury, representing
the Royal Thames Yacht club, raced
against" a licet of the New York Yacht
club and finished tenth, the jehooner
yacht Magic winning byli'.hn. 12s.
Mr. Ashbury challenged again the
following year with the schooner Li
vonia, jind . as result of "negotiations
between the two clubs ho was only
compelled to race one boat, the New
York Yacht club bavins tbe right to
name any boat it saw fit in the morn
ing of the race. As a result of five
races sailed in October, 1871, the Li
vonia won one race out of three from
the schooner Columbia through the car
rying away of the American yacht's
Bteeriug gear, and was beaten by the
schooner Sappho in two races.
There were no more races for the
cup until 1S70, when the Canadian
schooner Countess of Dufferln, repre
senting the Royal Canadian Yacht
club of Toronto, raced against the
American schooner yacht Madeleine in
August of that year. The American
boat won two straight races. In 1SS1
the Canadians challenged again, this
time with a single sticker, but with no
better success, the challenging Ata
lanta being easily beaten by the Yan
kee sloop Mischief. Four years later
the cutter Genesta, owned by Sir Rich
ard Sutton of England, came after the
cup in 1885, only to be beaten by the
Boston yacht Itiritan In two straight
races. - -
The following year, 1SS0, 'William
Ileun, an Irish yachtsman, challenged
with the cutter Galatea, and it was the
same old story, the Yankee yacht, May
flower, winning the two races, sailed
easily.
In 1SS7 the Scotch came after the cup
with the Thistle, owned by James Bell
and a syndicate of Clyde yachtsmen.
This was the first cup challenger di-
signed by William Fife, who is respon
slide, for the present challenger, and
she was supposed to stand a good
chance. The America a yacht, however,
won with ease.
Six years passed before there was an
other challenge, when Lord Punraveu
came over in lSitf with Valkyrie II.
and was beaten by the Vigilant.
He challenged again In 18'.)5 with Val
kyrie III., and after being beaten by
the Defender, in one race and losing the
second on a foul he withdrew bis boat
after crossing the line in the third race.
lie afterward made charges of foul
play against the owners of the Defend
er and, after a sensational trial before
the New York Yacht club, was expelled
from the club, of which he was an hon
orary member.
This episode put a stop to racing for
a time, but in 1890 Sir Thomas Linton
hallenged with Shamrock I., which
was beaten by the Columbia in three
straight races.
In 11)01 Sir Thomas challenged again
with Shamrock II., and after the most
exciting series of races ever sailed for
the cup the Columbia again won three
straight races by the narrowest possi
ble margin.
In the eleven contests thus far for the
cup on this side twenty-eight races, or
heats, have -been sailed, and only once
has the challenging yacht won a race,
and that was when the schooner Co
lumbia was disabled in 1S71 and was
beaten by the Livonia.
In 1SS5 the Puritan fouled the Ge
nesta before the start of a race, and
the race was awarded to the English
yacht, but Sir Richard Sutton declined
to take it, and the contest was resailed.
In 1S05 the Valkyrie II. beat the De
fender forty-seven seconds, but the
American yacht was disabled through
a collision with her competitor, and the
English yacht was disqualified and the
race awarded to the Defender.
In 1001 the Shamrock II. finished
two seconds ahead of the Columbia,
but lost the race on time allowance.

I'ilotiiig an excursion boat on its
three daily trips up and down the mud
dy Missouri from the river front of this
town is Captain - J. D. Sinun. who
used to stand watch with Mark Twain
when the author of "On the Mississip
pi" was learning the things he after
ward wrote into his river stories, says
a Sioux City dispatch.
''Sam might have made a good pilot
if he hadn't always been wan! in' to
write for the papers," acknowledged
Captain Simms when questioned, "lie
knowed the old . Miss'Ipp, but he
couldn't some way be practical about
his river business. He was always
seein' the things that would make
'good stories.' One time Captain Leath
ers came up to the pilot house with a
paper in his hand. We was just getfin'
out of St. Juiis fcr a down river trip.
The paper had a black mark around a
piece, and be held it up to Sam. who
was at tha wheel.
'Sam,' says the captain, 'you'll make
a rlverman some day if you'll jnst get
over this nonsense of writiu' fer the
papers. Why don't ye quit?'
"Sam took a turn on the wheel an'
eyed the captain half a minute out of
his sharp eyes an' then says:
"'Yes, captain, an' don't ye s'pose I
might make a pretty good writer some
day if I'd get over this tryln' to be a
riverman?'
"But he got to be a pretty good river
man anyhow, an' a better writer,"
went on the grizzled veteran, as he sig
naled the engineer to whistle to open
the combination bridge draw. "I'd like
to read a story he'd write about pilotin'
nowadays, with bars an' bridges every
where. The rivers ain't what they used
to be.
There aren't many of the old time
rivermen left in this country. The Yu
kon has drawed the best of 'em away.
That's the only place iu America where
there's any real steamboatin' nowa

Caned Colombian Seuate'a
tiou ol Canal Treaty.
That European powers, working se
cretly with agents of the transconti
nental railways, caused the defeat of
the 1'anama canal treaty in the Colom
bian senate is the belief of Dr. llerrau,
the Colombian charge d'affaires, says
the Washington correspondent of the
Philadelphia I'ress.
Dr. llerrau said that there was no
doubt that the railways, believing that
the opening of an isthmiau waterway
would materially al'i'ect their trade,
had been exerting a secret influence
against the convention in the scuate,
and that the evidence of their subtle
work was indicated in the action of
that body in rejecting the treaty de
spite the pleas of the Colombian admin
Jstration in its favor.
Furthermore, Dr. llerrau said, he laid
the rejection as well at the doors of
European diplomats, who, acting suij
terraneously under instructions from
home, had opposed the treaty because
their governments secretly were jeal
ous of the power the United States
would wield through ownership of the
canal.

three weeks ago and met Edward F.
Lotz, a man of twenty-six, whom she
had not seen since she was a child.
They fell in love and finally, decided on
on early marriage. Lotz's mother ap
proved.
Lotz, with Miss Stepp standing near
by, called up Mr. Stepp on the long
distance telephone and began by say
ing: "I'm going to surprise you. I
want to marry Ida."
Mr. Stepp, who is acquainted with
the Lotz family, readily consented. Lie
said it was his daughter's affair, and
he was willing to Indorse her choice.
The conversation, which cost Lotz
$1.25, ended with the parental blessing.

Leon ZoIotkoQ", a delegate to the sixth
International Zionist congress at Basel,
Switzerland, writing to the Chicago
Tribune says:
The sixth Zionist congress, like the
sixth day of the week of creation, will
complete a cyclus of organization. Out
of the chaos of hopelessness, of confu
sion of ideas and of a vague and unde
fined yearning a powerful organization,
well regulated and full of purpose,
sprang forth, as if by magic. There
was no model to pattern after, no prec
edent to consult. -New conditions had
to be created. The achievements prove
how well the plans have been laid. The
sixth congress will proclaim the con
summation of the tremendous experi
ment, for it will record the completion
of the worldwide organization in all Its
branches.
The Zionist movement, established on
the sound basis of a worldwide co
operative effort among the Jews, dis
covered that it needed a financial in
strument of the same character. A
bank plan was mooted at the first con
gress held in 1S07, the embryonic par
liament of a Jewish nation. In May.
1S98, the scheme was put to a practical
test. A small committee was formed
with headquarters at Cologne and pro
visional promises of subscriptions were
invited. ,
So enthusiastic and so widespread
was the response that within a year
the Jewish colonial trust was estab
lished with a capital stock of $10,000,-
000 divided into live dollar shares. The
Joint stock concern proposed by George
Kliot, as a writer, and by Sir Laurence
Oliphant, as a political writer, L.ald
or tne reintegration or a homeless Jew
ish people on their ancestral soil baa
thus become a renlitr. .....
The trust sfntetljly became the largest
joint stock concern in the world. Its
certificates are held from the Caucasus
to Klondike, ' from Perth in western
Australia to Aberdeen in Scotland. The
shareholders number l.'jo.ooo, w10 to
gether hold 4'0,000 shares.
An undertaking of that kind, though
not intended for gain, must have the
advantage of commercial profits, and
already a dividend was announced on
the $2,r0,0(i0 for the first working
year, which ended May, 1003,
The trust aims directly not at the
purchase of Palestine, but at the ol
taining and financing of such conces
sions shall, beyond commercial advam
tages, give the right of legal settlement
In Palestine to those Jews who are in
need of a home, and shall, moreover,
give security of tenure for land and all
forms of estate.
lor the purchase of land in Palestine
and Syria another resource was treat
Pdtho Jewish national fund. This
fund is being raised by means of the
Sale of stamps which Zionists u-e to

tration ot the fund remains with the

NEW WIRELESS SYSTEM.
Invention la TelcKrupliT'
hr fhl-
('HK Kleetriclnn.
A Chicago electrician named G. S.
Plcsrott declares that he has invented
a new system of wireless te'loniphy
which is simpler than those now in use.
"The new rysteui," says the Milwaukee
Sentinel, "should it prove commercially
practicable, has, it is lalmed. many
advantages over the style used by Mar
coni in his invention. First, there is no
pole at either receiving or sending cta
tion, and although iu recent test the
receiver was ex;Mse( o; the deck of the
vessel the transmitter was in the room
of a house, and. aecordinsr to the in
ventor, the receiver would have re
sponded to every message even if it
were carried In a pocket. An Intenst-
ficr makes the poles unnecessary. To
prevent the interferon.-e of foreign cur
rents each Instrument is to respond
only to a current of n certain rapidity
of alternation. This, nays the nventor,
may be done so accurately that no in
terference of any kind is possible, uo
matter thnmcli what medium the vi
brations of the current must pass In
their journey from one instrument to
another. A special cede of feh-yraphy
is used by Mr. 1'ign tt. called the dou
ble dot code, in which dots are used
Instead of the dots nnd dashes f th
Morse system."
Tlie invention is described (1ms:
"Instead of employ!!!- a t .inter and ft

the work of two and takes up less

tem, which I call 'space teiecr;!jhv,'" is
timed to a certain rapidity of alterna
