NEW YORK. Aug. IS. Despite the dls
agreeablo weather, there was a crowd of
boats about Shamrock II off Staplcton to
day all day. The excursion steamers and
tho regular route boats ran close to the
challenger during tho day on every trip, to
give the passengers a chance to see Sir
Thomas Llpton's yachts. Tho hands In
variably played "The Wearing of tho
Green" or "God Save the King" and tho
challenger was cheered repeatedly. The
crew, Including Captain Sycamore, re
mained on board tho tender, Porto Rico,
all day, only an anchor watch of three men
being on board the .Shamrock. The cheers
for tho Shamrock were returned from the
tender.
The James A. Lawrence, wllh Mr. Darrle
and others on board, went down to Sandy
Hook during the day and picked out tho
point nt which the mooring buoy will be
placed for Shamrock II and Its consorts.
Captain Mntthews of the Erin said It was
unlikely Shamrock would be given a prac
tlco spin until after the arrival of "tho
governor." It appears to be the desire of
all that Sir Thomas should Inspect his boat
before It Is sent out.
SHORT FIGHT TO FINISH
Clnroneo CiikIUIi Slops "Kill" .Iriisen
In Seven lloiiiiils liy limit
1 11 It lllooil.
Clarence English and "Kid" Jnen, local
pugilists, fought to a Mulsh within canvas
wiilt nltnhrwl In n i-nrntlnlit In East Omaha
precinct yesterday afternoon. The llilsh
came when the Ixdl sounded for the eighth
round and tho "Kid" threw up the spouse.
Although the lighting arena was ncuri
fu.ii mlt. irnm tho K.nst Omaha ear line, a
couple of In ndred of Omaha sports suffer
tile illscomiott or riCKeiy carry. inn mm
handed their money Into tho tnaingrilil
naw ill Ihc mite. N'nnn of the li.ltr H
seemed to know or care much who the
lighters were-tho tip had gone form inai
It wns to be a hard mill to a llnlsh and thu
boys were out for that kind of sport.
Those whe had anticipated a long bittlo
were illsannolntcd the moment the llithiers
stepped Into the ring. Neither of tile tighter.
looKcd Hard enougn to go any coiiMueruoic
distance and there was material disparity
In their weights, although It wns announced
Hint each man weighed 122 pounds. English
was several Inches longer thnn U an
tagonist In every direction nnd appeared t
have at least live or six pounds moro
weight, und ho wns promptly picked ns thu
winner.
When the "scrappers" got together they
disclosed to the nudlence that they knew
about ns much about lighting as a dress
maker knows nbout building a yacht. Tho
ught was a succession of misdirected leads,
wild swings and clinches. Incidentally,
there were a few blows and considerable
Jabbing In tho clinches.
Jensen wns too short to reach English
effectively, but he wns cunning enough to
escape n good deal of punishment by rush
ing headlong Into a clinch. In the tlf'h
round English covered Jensen's right optic
nnd sent It almost to sleep. In the sixth
nnd soventh rounds English rushed the
"Kid" nnd had him against the ropes
reveral times, but did no damage until he
drew the claret from his antagonist In the
middle of the seventh.
Jensen's seconds were unable to stop the
blood during the Intermission and when
time for the eighth was called a sponge
went Into the air and declared English the
winner.

The Itriimrltnb Io i;iierlrner of n
I'lTiu'tier-Aeronnut In HiinlnmL
To be In the very henrt of a thunder
cloud and escape unharmed Is an unusual
If not n unique experience. That Is what
happened to Rev. John M. Bacon and some
companions In one 'of his balloon ascen
sions fiom Newbury, England.
Mr. Bacon In telling of the experience
says: "In scarcely more than twenty min
utes from the start a sudden and surpris
ing change took place In our circumstances.
Our environment, which had appeared nb
Folutely calm nnd clear", began changing
with the rapidity of a transformation scene.
Below us the few hundred feet which sep
arated us from earth began filling In with
a blue haze quite transparent, but growing
palpably filmier, whllo ahead, as also right
and left, the horizon .t the level of our
eye and higher opposed n dense fog barrier
of an nshen hue. Overhead of courso the
sky view was entirely hidden by the huge
silken globe. At this lime we wcro being
swept along on our course, which remnlned
sensibly unaltered In direction, at a speed
which we subsequently were able to fix
at approximately forty miles nn hour.
"To ourselves the full significance of
these circumstances was not Immediately
apparent, hut tho onlookers at our point
of departure the town gas works, now
some five miles In our wake clearly de
tected the approach of a heavy thunder
pack nnd, ns they reasonably asserted
coming against the wind. It towered above
the balloon, now seen projected plainly
ngalnst Its face. It camu on rapidly anil
assumed formidable proportions. The bal
loon wns flying dun west at high speed
and at apparently no great distance over
head the thundercloud wns progressing at
a moderato velocity not accurately do
termlnrd, but du east or directly opposed
to the surface current.
"And now with a whistle a blinding sheet
of hall attacked the aeronauts, stinging
their faces so sharply as to give the Idea
that the stones were falling from a great
height, nnd Immediately afterward from all
sides and close around flashes of lightning
shot out with remarkable frequency nnd
vlvldnesit. Wc were, In fact, fairly cm
bosomed In the thundercloud. Other and
near observers narrowly watched the phases
of phenomena now In progress. These wcro
the countrymen who became Interested
spectators and who presently came to our
assistance. They seemed to hnvc Imagined
that the balloon must bo Infallibly struck,
Inasmuch as It appeared to them com
pletely encircled with lightning. It was.
Indeed, the wotst otorm tho countryside
had known for many years. At Devizes,
only a few miles ahead, It lasted for Ave
hours continuously. A little way on our
right a house was struck and burned to the
ground and on our left a couple of soldiers
were killed on Salisbury plain.
"Though the storm progressed, It also
appeared to lag behind the wind that bore
It along. It did not seem to advance
against us as a whole, but rather about
us, forming Itself out of what a few mo
ments before had appeared mere empty
and transparent air.
"Tho lightning as seen by tho neonlo In
the balloon seemed to leap from cloud to
cloud and not from tho clouds to the earth.
and tho noise of the thunder consisted of
short, sharp reports like the explosions of
guncoiton without any of the rolling re
verberatlons heard on the earth. Tho aero
nauts passed through tho thunderstorm uu
Injured, but It, was trying to the nerves.
The question Is, with the lightning playing
all around It and houses and men being
struck on tho earth below, why was not
tne uaiioon demolished by a thunderbolt?

"Both my children wero taken with
wnooping cougu," writes Mrs. O. E. Dutton
of Danvlllo, 111. "A small bottle of Foley's
Honey and Tar cured the cough and saved
mc a doctor's bill."
CAHU OF TUB FEET.
Require ns Much Attention a Any
Pnrt of thr lloily.
Of all parts of the body, says the Pub
lic Health Journal, thero Is not one which
ought to bo bo carefully attended to as
the feet. Every person knows from ex
perience that colds and many other diseases
which proccod from colds aro attributable
to cold feet. Tho feet aro at such a dls
tancofrom "tho wheel at the cistern" of the
system that tho circulation of tho blood
may bo very easily checked thero. Vet,
for all this, and although every person of
common sense should be aware of tho truth
of what we havo stated, thero Is no part
of tho human body so much trifled with
as the feet. The young and would-be-genteelcd
cramp their toes and feot Into
tbln-solcd bono-plnchlog boots and shoeB
In order to display neat feet In tho fashion
able sense of the term. There is one
great evil, ngalnst which every person
should be on their guard and It Is one
which Is not often guarded against we
mean the changing of warm for cold shoes
or boots.
A change is often mado from thick to
thin-soled shoes without reflecting upon tho
consequences which might ensue. In cold
weather boots and shoes of good thick
leather, both lu soles and uppers, should
bo worn by all. Watcr-tlghts are not good
If thoy are alr-tlghts; India rubber over
shoes should never be worn except In wet
splashy weather and then not very long at
once. It Is hurtful to tho feet to wear any
covering that is air-tight over them and
for this reason India rubber should be worn
ns seldom as possible. No part of the body
should bo allowed to havo a covciing that
entirely obstructs tho passage of carbonic
ncld gas from the pores of the skin out
ward and the moderate passage of the
air Inward to tho skin. Llfo can bo do
stroyed In a very short time by entirely
closing up the pores of the skin. Good
warm stockings and thlcK-soled boots und
shoes are conservators of health, and, con
sequently, of human happiness.
Mr. Daniel Bantz, Ottervllle, la., says:
"Have had asthma and n very bad cough
for years, but could got no relief from the
doctors nnd medicines I tried, until I took
Foley's Honey nnd Tar. It gave immo
dlato relief and done mc moro good than all
tho other remedies combined."
