LONDON , Oct. 18. The London afternoon papers Illustrate the sportsmanlike view taken by all ( sections of the English press of the Columbia's" victory yesterday. The St. James Gazette says : . "Our regret for Shamrock's defeat must bo outweighed by our satisfaction nt ( ho fact that the accident was provided against be forehand and thnt , therefore , no opportunity for a misunderstanding could exist on this occasion. "Shamrock's gear reached the cracking point flrst , and the fact that Columbia out- Balled It with the same breeze shows that the American boat Is the hotter , which It Is Just the object of these matches to settle one way or the other. " The Pall Mall Gazette says : "This Is n competition between constructors , as well ns sailors , nnd the American victory was per fectly fair and decisive. " Mliton'N OnrntN Null. NRW YORK , Oct.

BOYS WORRY BmDEGROOM Give Him n Clmrlvnrl anil Work Him for Ciood Coin to Trent the Crowd. There was n wedding Wednesday night at 550 South Twenty-sixth street , and there were the concomitant Joy and brilliance befitting such an occasion. When the merriment was nt Its height nnd blushing bride and happy groom were receiving the congratulations of many guests n peculiar sound penetrated the cars of all prcednt and It grew In volume and rapidity until it was brought forcibly to all present that they were being treated tea a charivari by a lot of hoys. When the nolee had become unbearable the bridegroom wont out on the front porch and parleyed 'with the enemy. He found bo could not patch up n truce without treating , eo ho called tbo boys about him and carfully scrutinized them , found ono whom ho thought looked honest and ho gave him some money , saying at the same time : "Now , my boy , take thla and dl- vide It among your companions. " " No Eooner had 1ho door closed behind the bridegroom than the boy who got the money took to his heels with the pack In full cry , hut ho was too llect and outdistanced them. They then held a council of war and decided to go back nnd try their luck again. They succeeded in getting their man out once more and again ho called the boys about htm and this time was partcular In his search for a boy who was the soul of honesty. Ho dis cerned dimly through the moonlight a lad on whoso physiognomy there was certainly as ho thought written honesty in every linea ment , and ho gave him a generous coin with the admonition to treat the crowd. This boy , too , failed to perform his duty and ho dis appeared In the darkness as though the earth had swallowed htm up. By thla time the party of lads were des perate and they armed themselves with fence rails , staves and clubs , like a mob in the French revolution , nnd descended upon the house once more , this tlmo attacking In the rear , with the rceult that they pounded off considerable plastering before their boru- hardmeut was terminated. This was more than the bridegroom would stand for , and ho telephoned the pollco. Officer Bdgblll was detailed-to Investigate nnd when ho arrived ho found a frantic mob of hoys which it took him some tlmo to disperse. After they were ' flnall'y put to rout another oniccr was sta tioned to guard the house and quiet soon reigned over the scene.

The ex- ocutlvo committee of the- exposition la busily engaged upon plans that will mature In n day or so and they promise to present a program of unusual Interest. A member of the committee said In rc- sard to the matter that there was no doubt that the coming of HO famous n warrior would bring a crcat many people to the city. The Into war had aroused much Interest In military matters and the presence In the city of a man of euch great reputation would certainly be n matter of widespread Interest.

Several other epeclnl days are being planned , which will soon be announced. Thei resolution of the board of directors to keep the exposition open has quieted the uneasiness about the grounds nnd ovcry ono has taken hold with vigor nnd with the Intention of pushing things through successfully. German Munlc Exemplified. The consort Wednesday night was de voted to the rendition of mus'c by German composers and was gvcetcd with the same enthusiasm that has characterized the two former concerts In the scries. While some of the composers represented on the pro gram were not of the best , there were others whoso names nre known the world over and In consequence there was no lack of appreciation and Interest. A new selec tion Introduced waa the grand march from 'Tho Queen of Sheba" by Goldsmith , which proved to be a pleasing number. The over turn "Tho Fugitive" by Kretschmar , has been heard before , but It met with a warm reception. The two Schubert numbers the ballot music from "Rosamund" and the serenade wore among the best of the pro gram. Mr. Bellstedt took the , Polo of the la'tter selection and' gave It a fine Interpreta tion. Ae a cornetlst he Is a master , 'pro ducing a tone as soft as velvet and 'yet full , rich and round. The Mcndlossohn "Songs Without Words" were given a clean presentation , although they are heard to much better ad vantage on the piano or given by an or chestra. "Trnumerel , " nn old favorite , received with the applause It deserved and that was generous. The ono Wagnerlan number from ' 'Lohengrin" ' gave a little touch of brilliance to the program. The last number was the beautiful selection "The Invitation to the Dance" by Weber. It Is not a great composition by any means and yet there are some flue passages In It nnd It Is a. piece that demands fine technique. It begins with a dialogue between a man nnd a woman , the different Instruments simulat ing the bass and treble voices. Following the Introduction the waltz starts up and away the couple seems to glide over the waxen lloor to ono of the most entrancing waltzes over written. Tonight the concert la a gem , for three of the greatest music masters of the world will have their music presented. Handel , Haydn and Mozart are the composers and the selections are repre sentative of their works. Ticket * to Ho Sold In Advance.

Fahs contemplates the erection of a two-story 'brick building at the. s > utheast corner of Twenty-fourth and M s.rects. Plans are now being drawn by Architect L. A.

Stores are planned for the ground lloor , with cither odlcoJ or flats aboove. Mr. Fahs has not made up his mind about the construction tf the second end lloor , hut expects to do so before the plans have progressed much further. If the second floor is to bo devoted to offices the building will bo heated with steam through out , but If it is to bo cut up into Hats it Is thought that the heating plant will ho omitted. The corner on which this block is to be erected Is ono of the most prominent in the city and tht > investment will no doubt be a good oue.

Joseph Scott , ex-president of the Montana Stock Growers' association , la cred ited In the Journal-Stockman with the fol lowing Interview : "The rise In the price of beef is not due to any particular shortage In the available supply , but because more beef Is being oaten. Consumption of beef has Increased and that has raised the price. The smoke coming out of nil the factories in the land simply shows that the laboring classes are employed and that they are able to buy beef. There arc just as many cat tle In the country as thcro ever were , but the demand Is much greater. Montana will not ship half as many cattle east this winter as In previous years simply because there have not been so many range yearlings bought from the southern ranges. The price has been too high. " Fli-Mt Day of UfKlntrntlnn. Today Is the flrst day of registration , and every voter who desires to vote at the com ing election musts ho registered.

ILLINOIS CENTRAL ACTIVITY E&fciiHloit from Fort Uoilgc to Oniiiliu in I'roKremiinK Quite Hiiii I illy. J. P. Wallace , assistant second vice presi dent of tbo Illinois Central railroad , with headquarters at Chicago , arrived In the city yesterday. Ho came from St. Louis via the Burlington In special Illinois Central car No. 1 , which was Immediately trans ferred to the Union Pacific tracks cud lakcu over to Council Bluffs. Mr. Wallace was ac companied by his secretary. C. H. Allison ; T. M. Moore , right of way agent of the Illinois Central , and Lieutenant Charles S. Wallace and wife of the United States signal corps. Lieutenant Wallace is n brother of Vice President Wallace and Is now on his way from. Cuba to the Philippines. A trip from Chicago via Louisville and St. Louis to Omaha was arranged for the pleasure of the lieutenant and his wife. Mr. Wallace , who with Second Vice Presi dent J. T. Hanrahan has supervision of the traWo and operating.departments , has had under his entire direction the extension of the Illinois Central from Fort Dodge , la. , to Council Bluffs and Omaha. After stop ping In Council Bluffs In the afternoon long enough to note that all operations In track construction aud preparations for the erec tion of depots and round house were pro gressing without interruption , Mr. Wallace left to Inspect the work on the Illinois Cen tral extension. "How soon -Kill the Illinois Central he running trains into Omaha ? Well , that question is a little hard to answer , " said Vice President Wallace In response to an Inquiry. "Wo originally expected to have everything completed and ready to operate trains by January 1 , 1900 , and we have at present no reason to doubt our ability to do so. The construction of a line of railroad 131 miles In length In a year's time , how ever , Is n mighty big undertaking , and 0110 which usually consumes two or three years. There are certain conditions which must needs enter into calculations of this kind , especially weather nnd labor. Wo might bo caused considerable delay if cither thu weather or labor conditions are unfavorable , but you can depend upon it that we are going to do everything In our power to have this extension completed by the flrst of the year. "At present wo have 103 miles of track completed. The extension Is 131 miles In length , coneequentlythere are yet twenty- eight miles of track to be laid. The com pleted track Is In three divisions , as wo have had our men at work at different points along the line. From Council Bluffs we have eighteen miles ; then there are fifty miles completed from near Logan to a point opposite the town of Boyer , which is twelve miles north of Denlson. At the ether end of the line our track is finished from Tara , a Junction point on the main line six miles this side of Fort Dodge to Coon river , a distance of tKrty-flve miles. After the entire track Is com pleted and all connections are made It will be about a month 'before ' the regular opera tion of passenger and freight trains can commence. The track must bo surfaced up and otherwise prepared for service. "In the twenty-eight miles yet to he completed the grading has not all been done. In two places the track has been laid up to the graders and It will be continued as teen j ns the grade is prepared , Wo have- five ! steam shovels at work loading ballnet for I use on the grade. At this time there are i thirty engines and train crews at work on ' the extension. Wo have forces of men , aside from the graders and track layers , at work putting up water tnnlu , bulldlug nl.i- lions , stock yards nnd preparing for side tracks. In all these departments we have , perhaps , 5,000 men employed In this work. Since the Ifith of last April we have had nn average of 1,000 tennw at work and in our grading have removed the enormous quan tity of G.OOO.OOO yards of dirt. "The different executive heads of the Illi nois Centrnl nro carefully considering tha many things nrlsltiK In connection with the Inauguration of our line In n new territory In Omnhn we will have a city parsengcr and ticket office In the heart of the business part of the city , and will have representa tives of our freight department located there. It Is not probable that our city offices will be opened up before the line Is coin * plcted nnd trains In operation , although , of course , some preparation In opening up the office will bo ueeof nry nnd will consume n short time. You can depend upon It thnt when the Illinois Central opens Its line to Omaha Its service will equal thnt of nny other road , nnd will bo excelled by none. In fact , 1 will venture the statement that the Central , as eoon as its new homes in Council Bluffs and Omaha are established , will onjey ns great popularity ns nny other road , because of Its superior physical con dition , Us excellent equipment , aud the frc- qucncy nnd ppccd of Its trains. "In Council Hluffa where wo own the en tire property between Twelfth and Thir teenth Htrceta and extending from Broadway to the river wo arc putting In our side tracks. Our round house , la now In course of construction and we will early let the contract for the erection of a magnificent depot , which will have Its entrance on Twelfth street near Broadway.
