UttON VERY MICH DISArFOINTED lAst Baca Proves Hardest of All Sham reek Leads Host of the Way Oatdoae, However by Time Allowance Llptoa Glvea Three Cheers for Colombia. NEW YORK, Oct. 5. With victory flags flowing from its towering mast heads and the ends of its spreaders in honor of its concluding triumph In the cup races of 1901, the gallant sloop Columbia returned to its anchorage under the escort of the entire excur sion fleet It completed its defense of the honored trophy in another stir ring race with Shamrock II over a lee ward and windward race of thirty miles, crossing the finish line two sec onds behind its antagonist, but win ning on time allowance conceded by Uptons' boat by forty-one seconds. For the second time it has now suc cessfully foiled the attempt of the Irish knight to wrest from our posses sion the cup that means the yachting supremacy of the world. And plucky Sir Thomas Lipton, standing on the bridge of Erin, led his guests in three hearty hurrahs for the successful de fender. "Columbia is the better boat," he said, "and deserves to be cheered." The series of races just closed will always be memorial as the closest ever sailed for the cup and Sir Thomas, al though defeated, will go home with the satisfaction of knowing that his golden yacht is the ablest foreign boat that ever crossed the western ocean. During both series of races not an untoward incident has occurred and Sir Thomas will return to England far the most popular of a'll the for eigners who have challenged for the Americas' trophy. Yesterday's race on paper was the closest of the series, but because of the flunking of the wind on the beat Home as a contest of the relative merits of the yachts it Is not to be comp'afeS with the magnificent, truly-run and royally fought battles of Saturday and those of Thursday last. The condi tions of the race at the starTyesterday were very similar to those of Thurs day. The wind was strong and from the shore embroidering the sea with foam and piling up no swell ideal conditions for the challenger. The racers were sent away bsfore the wind, each carrying penalty for crossing the line after the handicap gun. No official record is kept of the time after that gun is fired, but the experts with stop watches estimated Columbia's handicap at fifteen seconds and Shamrock's at thirty seconds. Th3 contest of the yachfs fleeing before the following wind was picturesque, bui not exciting. The big racers, like gulls, with outstretched pinions, had every inch of canvas spread, all of their light sails. Including bulging spinnakers and balloon jib topsails. While taking his defeat gamely. Sir Thomas Lipton made no attenfpT to conceal the honest disappointment when he talked about the races on the Erin. "I am very disappointed," he said. "I cant' hide that. I thought within fifteen minutes of the finish that we had won. I was sure as my life that we had won. When I look ed around the situation bad changed and we had lost It was a hard blow to be so near winning and then to lose. I should like to "have got one race, just by way of consolation. It is a very hard thing to be beaten by a breath by a few beats of the pulse. Chnrchllt Startles Them. LONDON, Oct. 5. Winston Spencer Churchill, speaking last night at Old ham, delivered himself of another se vere censure of the war policy of the government. He declared that the military situation in South Africa was now "not less momentous than when the Boer armies threw themselves into Natal at the beginning of the war," and that the empire today "confronts difficulties and dangers more embar rassing than those which hung over it in the black week of December, 1898."

The officers- of the state bureau of labor and indus trial statistics are endeavoring to formulate a plan by which accurate statistics may be gathered in Ne braska. With this purpose in view, Deputy Commissioned Watson has been corresponding with statisticians in various parts of the country and the replies so far received indicate that only a few of the states succeed in obtaining a complete registration. The following discussion of the sub ject was received from Chief Cressy L. Wilbur of the vital statistics divis ion of Michigan: "Many other states, have endeavored to collect mortality statistics, but in most cases with very poor success. Some of these are: Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Florida, Alabama, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Califor nia and Washington. There are two states which have adopted modern systems of registration, but so recent-1 ly that their results could not be pass ed upon by the census, so I am not sure whether they can be included in the list of registration states or not These are Colorado and Indiana. Of the latter I am quite sure that the accuracy of the registration is very good. I may say also that the state of Illinois has adopted a new law by which certificates of death will be re quired. This law, if effectually admin istered, may perhaps bring Illinois in the list of registration states, although it has some very serious organic ef fects. "I hope that in the near future Ne braska may adopt a satisfactory law for the registration of votal statistics. Snould any such legislation be under taken, however, it will be of great importance to avoid the very serious mistakes which are very frequently made. Thus, Iowa only a few years ago adopted new registration laws for the collection of deaths, which any person at all informed in registration methods could have said from the start would be utterly worthless in practice, as they have since turned out to be." A SENSATIONAL DIVORCE CASE. FUIag of a Petition Sets Gossiping Tongues Wagging. IOWA FALLS, Oct 7. The filing of a petition in the district court by Mrs. Fannie Wisner Crockett pray ing for a divorce from her husband, Frank W.

Last year and the fear previous tests were mads at the Vermont Experiment Station to de termine the effect of grooming cows. Tha results In either case were not rery favorable. The published sum nary of results states that a unit tt total and of digestible dry matter fielded fonr per cent less when the lows were groomed than when they were kept uncarded, and that there was practically no difference in the quality of the milk given under the two conditions. The conclusion reached is that grooming should lessen die. bacterial content of a cow's milk, but. is not likely to add to its amount or its l fat content a Watering Cows at Will. A test was made to determine the effect of al lowing cows to drink at will as op posed to the practice of watering them at regular intervals. Four ma ture cows were selected' for the test and the amount of water drank was weighed in each case. The results 3howed that the cows that drank whenever they wished and in such quantities as they desired, made no more and no better milk than when they drank but twice dally. Warm vs. Cold Water. The report Df the results of an experiment in warming water for dairy cows states that Increase in the consumption of water when warmed was universally obseryed. The cold water was drunk more freely in November and May than in the intervening months. At ill other times it was drunk much less freely than the warmed water, 'the ncreased consumption of water when warmpd averaging from 8 to 23 per cent This increase in consumption, nowever, resulted in no increase in the milk flow or decrease in its quality. n other words, the cow did not water her milk by increased drinking. a Excessive Amounts of Single Nu irients. Experiments were undertaken to determine the effect of adding to a standard ration excessive amounts of a single nutrient It was found that an excess of protein (Atlantic gluten flour) had but slight effect on the quantity and none upon the quality of the milk flow. A 10 per cent ex cess of carbohydrates In the form of cane sugar also had but slight effect upon the quantity and none on the quality of the milk flow. The addi tion of a solid fat (palm oil) bad a pronounced effect upon the quality of the flow, increasing the total solids 2 per cent and the fat 7 per cent The increase appeared to be a permanent one. In similar trials reported a year ago cottonseed oil was found to in crease the fat content of milk per manently to the extent of .20 to .30 per cent Emulsified corn and linseed oils depressed the fat percentages. Financial considerations did not enter into these tests, as the protein, carbo hydrates and fats added were so cost ly as to make very expensive rations. Effect of Large Grain Rations. To determine the effect of large grain rations, four, eight and twelve pounds of different grain rations were fed at different times, with hay and silage. The results from a financial stand point showed that an increase of grain from four pounds to eight or to twelve pounds, seldom yielded enough more butter to pay the cost of the extra grain. In practically every case, how ever, there was enough more skim milk and enough better manure made to more than offset the extra expense for grain. When the by-products "are considered the profit was each time in favor of the eight-pound ration as compared with the four-pound and generally in favor of the twelve-pound as compared with the eight-pound ra lion. Oar Trade with Spain. Trade relations between the United States and Spain have resumed the conditions existing prior to the war between the two countries. The ex ports from the U. S. to Spain in the fiscal year just ended were larger than in any preceding year with a single exception, 1883, and show an increase of 6 million dollars over 1899; while our Imports from Spain also show a marked increase over 1899. In the 7 months ending July 1901, our imports from Spain were 13,110, 18, against $2,875,840 in the corresponding period of the preceding year, while dnringthe same period our experts to Spaluin creased from $8,189,288 to $8,988,970. Raw materials form the most import ant feature of our exports to Spain, and fruits and iron ore the principal articles of importation. The total value of our imports from Spain in the fiscal year 1901 was $5,409,301, and in 1900, $5,950,047. The details of the 1901 importations are not available, but those of the year 1900 show: fruits, over one and a half million dol lars, nuts, 518 thousand dollars; wines, 538 thousand and iron ore, 650 thous and dollars in value. Turning to the export side, raw materials prove to be the chief feature of our export trade with Spain. Our total exports to Spain in the fiscal year 1901 were $15,484,738, against $18,399,680 -n 1900. Of the lat ter total, cotton was valued at $9,618, 930; mineral oil, $888,011; snooks and staves; $850,295; tobacco, $661,842; boards and planks, $426,387; bread stuffs, $236,353; iron and steel manu factures, $162,738.

Professor Kennedy is a graduate it the Iowa Agricultural College and was elected to the Animal Husbandry work in the University of Illinois im mediately after the completion of his :ourse at Ames two years ago. Since ihat time he has established an excel lent reputation and made a record that has rarely been equaled by a young man in college work. At the Interna tional Live Stock Exposition at Chi cago last December, Professor Ken nedy's students won the Spoor Cham pion Trophy in the Intercollegiate Stu dents' Judging Contest and out of a total prize list of $1,135 -in a contest in which several states and Canada were competing, his students won $348. Pro fessor Kennedy has had an extensive and practical training in agricultural and live stock work and he is in ad dition a thorough student and a most enthusiastic instructor The Animal fjisbandry Department o the Iowa Agricultural College has always been regarded as one of the strongest in the United States and Professor Kennedy's elec n makes it certain that the pres ent high standard will be maintained. ie of the latest pcuitry books says "Fowls are as a rule free from disease, and almost all diseases arise from neg- ,i.-ts. ua uiiauiUtiutficni ny xug fceep- r. who overlooks ilet-:il3 and estab ishes irregularities 'vltScb wreck tiie--irdlest constitution." Society Woaaaa Raises Track. Near the pretty little town of Derby, Conn., is a farm which is managed by a gifted society woman who in her day has figured conspicuously in most European courts. The woman is Miss Frederica Sanford, daughter of Henry S. Sanford, at one time United States minister to Belgium. Miss Sanford personally supervises and works the place, raising "garden truck" and chickens. These she takes to Derby regularly, finding ready sale in the markets and hotels for all she can of fer. Her widowed mother and her younger sister, Wilhelmina, live in the old Sanford homestead in town. Here Miss Sanford generally passes her nights, but from early spring till late in the fall she is up and away to her truck farm at daylight, often re maining there till sundown. In this way she makes a comfortable if sim ple living for the family, besides be ing able to indulge in some of the elegancies. Fighting Temperature Is 85. Professor Dexter, of the University of Illinois, has been investigating the effects of weather on morals and finds that the desire to fight rises with the thermometer, but stops at S5 degrees; wilts after that as the mercury rises. Assault cases are therefore commoner in summer than in winter. Drunken ness, however, lessens with summer and increases with the coming of cold. Suicides are at a minimum on bright days with a high barometer and in creases as the wind rises. A FEARLESS PHYSICIAN. Benton. 111., Sept 30th. Much com ment has been caused by the action of Dr. R.

Dr. Dunaway also published an open letter last May stating positively that he himself had been cured of Diabetes by Dodd's Kidney Pills, and that, after he had concluded he was going to die.
