YACHTS MAY MEET AGAiN.
FLAN FOR A \OTHER RACE FOR
THE DRAGOON AND THE NI\I(|S.
Annual Regatta of tlie Carolina
Vnrhl Clul* in Charleston on June
Dragoon Will Go Over to Sail
Agnlnst the Mortis for tlie I'un of

Titnnia and Kntrinka, It Is Said,

One of Six Entries—\o Troth in
Report of Davis Sailing the Dra
goon for sl.ooo—Annual Savannah
Regatta Will Probably Re ou July
4.
The Dragoon and the Maris will prob
ably have a chance to try conclusions
again very soon. The annual regatta of
the Carolina Yacht Club will be held In
Charleston harbor on June 28, and an ef
fort is afoot to have another race of boats
of the (Hass of the Dragoon and the Maris
as one of the features.
The entry of the Dragoon Is dependent
upon such a crew as is desired being se
cured. Whether this is practicable re
mains to be seen, though it is said there
will probably be no difficulty. Mr. Theo
dore Barnard is wanted as captain, but he
is not in the city, and those who are en
deavoring to arrange for another meeting
of the swift craft do not know' whether
he will be able to sail the Dragoon.
Mr. Barnard is expected back from
Charleston to-day. He went to that city
on the Maris, leaving with the victorious
crew on the victorious boat. His trip was
probably an opportunity to judge of the
points of the Maris, and the additional
knowledge might serve him in good stead
if he should again essay to beat her with
the Dragoon.
Definite arrangements for the race have
not been made, but it is said the Katrinka
and the Titania of Charleston and the Do
cile end the Monsoon of Brunswick wilt
also be entered. With six boats sailing
the interest would be far greater, and
if this arrangement could be brought
about the race would probably be the most
attractive of the regatta.
Ail the boats named, save the Monsoon.
Mr. Frank Strachan’s new yacht, were
here during the cup races between the
Dragoon and the Maris. The Lueile is
owned by Mr. 11. H. Raymond of Bruns
wick. The Titania and the Katrinka ire
well known, having figured in a number
of races. Neither, however, is regarded
as in the olasc* with the Dragoon, and the
Maris, in so far as speed is concerne >
The Monsoon and the Lueile are doubtful
quantities. They have not been tried
in big races.
It Is not proposed to race for n cup. No
prize will be offered. The plan is proposed
merely to satisfy the yachting spirit, and
the interest that has developed, indicates
that it will be a considerable dlsaivpoint
ment if it cannot be carried through.
A rumor has gained currency that Mr.
Davie, a son-in-law of Mr. Weber, the
designer of the Dragpon, wants to sail
her against the Maris. The story goes
that he regarded the defeat of the Dra
goon by the Charleston boat, as due entire
ly to some mismanagement on the port of
her crew, and it is said he wanted to place
SI,OOO as a l>et that he could sail the Dra
goon. and beat the Maris. This very in
terest ng trial has been talked about, but
It will not come off. Commodore W. W.
Starr and Mr. Julian Schley of the Savan
nah Yacht Club, aaid yesterday that there
was nothing*in the report.
The gentlemen further declared that
Mr. Davis is not to come to Savannah to
make changes in the Dragoon’s masts,
sails and rigging. Mr. Schley, as secre
tary of the syndicate owning the Dra
goon, is in correspondence with her de
signer to see whether, in his opinion, it
W’ill be possible to make oltera'ions that
would increase the speed of rhe boat. If
the Maris is met’ at Charleston week
after next, however, it will be with the
Dragoon rigged just as she now is.
The Dragoon has been brought around
from Thunderbolt and now lies in the Sa
vannah river. She was moved for ft ar
that moss and barnacles would accumu
late upon her bottom in the salt water.
Many of the Savannah yachtsmen will
go to Charleston for the regatta, but
those who do not go will still have tin
opportunity *o see racing, for the annuel
regatta of the Savannah Yacht Club will
be held. This decision was reached <
a recent meeting. The time was no’ defi
nitely fixed, being named for some clay
in July, but it is said it will probably
be on July 4. as that is a holiday.
Arrangements for the regatta have not
been made. It is said, however, on au
thority, that there will be no prizes of
fered. The boats will sail for penants.
Nor is it known just how many classes
will sail. That there will be a regatta
If interesting news to those who delight
in following the boats and participating
in the good time that is always experi

Rebind the Scenes in the Enlace
With the Imperial Aunt.
From the North China Daily News.
The following letter is from a member
of the reform party in Pekin, who got his
information, from an eyewitness, one of the
Empress Dowager’s eunuchs:
“To ‘begin at the beginning,’ previous
to the 22d of January, last, Pekin was
filled with quieting rumors, which grad
ually filtered into the palace. Some de
clared that the Emperor had already
been secretly deponed; others again st;> • and
that the Emperor had been made aw iv
with by poison; but when the Em-press
Dowager heard of them, she - rap]y smi'ed
in that grim way of hers, which, to the
terrorized eyes of those around her. meant
that she had decided on some eoairsa
which, even if it were paved with the
blood of thousands, would not deter her
from her subsequent goal. It is also sig
nificant of the woman that none—* xcep*, ,
perhaps, her favorite eunuch, I<l Lien*
ying. and Prince Ching—of those who daily
attended upon her, knew' exactly wh it
the Empress Dowager ‘ntended to do, al
though it was quite clear that some sort
of coup was on the tapis. But when the
fateful 24th of January. 1900, cam** every
one knew that only a few hours before
the Emperor had been forced to sign his
abdication, and a gloom spread over th*
capital like i pall, accentuated as it
was by chilly, lowering skies.
“I was one of those who stood around
with Ink slab and pen for the Emperor
to use. while the Empress Dowager her*
self held out the pen to him. Even then
His Majesty hesitated to take It and sign
the ready-prepared 'imperial' decree of
abdication held out to film; but an Imperi
ous stump of the right foot and those
piercing, menacing eyes of the Empress
Dowager frowning upon him, seemed to
enthrall and fapclnate the Emperor, who
Immediately stretched forth a trembling
hand and the next moment, with a groan
and a gesture of despair, as it were, the
fatal deed was done, and th© Empress
Dowager triumphantly snatched the ‘de
cree’ from her nephew's hand. Then a
sudden change occurred, with those around
her were too accustomed to see to he
startled or astonished at. The Empress
Dowager’s face became instantly suffuse.]
with smiles, her eyes became soft and
benevolent, and she was ail kindness and
motherly solicitude for her Imperial
nephew! He, poor fallen majesty! had
sunk down on hits chair after signing the
fatal paper, while a sudden deadly pale
ness manifested itself on his countenance,
and a moment after he had dyed his rob©

<°o much for his weal# health, and it
seemed that he had burst one of his lesser
I" 00 * 1 vesseis. Very kindly and gently
the Empress Dowager herself attended
to the Emperor, and when he seemed
to have somewhat recovered himself, her
self supported him on one side, waving
away the eunuch who had come forward
to do so. and with a surprising solicitude
for his health and comfort, arranged
•ho pillows and cushions in His Majes
s sedan chair, which W3e to carry him
to,his usual prison—the water-sur
rounded kiosh ai the Southern Lake pal

herself escorted the Emperor to his place
of retreat, called the Ying-t’ai. and having
neen him securely eonfin <1 within its high
wnlls and the drawbridge once more
brought over, her faee resumed that hard
look usual to it as she and her numerous
retinue returned to Pekin. All the way
from Pekin to the prison I heard the
Emperor weeping at his hard fate. He
was so utterly broken down and oppress
ed! Poor Majesty! 11 its meanest subject
among his 400.000,000 people would have
refused to exchange places with him on
Hiat day. Many of ns who escorted His
Majesty dropped tears of sympathy, and
I peeped at the author of all his evils to
>* e how she took it. Her heart seemed
to be of stone. There was that set. stern
look in‘her eyes, but not the least sign of
softening.
"1 can assure you that the Empress
Dowager had everything prepared for the
< rowning of the new Emperor on the first
day of the. new year (Jan. 13). but on the
-7th of the month the Tsung Li Ynmen
handed to her Kin Lienshan’s memorial
praying that ‘the Emperor bo allowed to
resume the reins of government, even in
ais illness. for flint was the only way to
satisfy His Majesty’s millions of subjects
throughout the empire.’
“Oh, the rage of the Empress Dowager
when slie read that obnoxious telegram! T
have seen many of her displays of tem
per and anger, but none like this one—if
surpassed even her rage at Kang Yu-wei
and his reformers. Wo eunuchs and even

lest her anger should foil on any one pres

Prince of Id’s reply. 'Very well. We’ll

that there was really something in it and

not give up her intentions, but merely de

“Asa consequence Kin-Efen-shan is
praised sky-high os a devoted patriot and
supporter of the Emperor by almost every
one in Pekin, always excepting the Em
press Dowager, her advisers and their
partisans; but, on the other hand, these

A TEMPLE HI II 4 OP LAVA.
Tlie World'* Eighth Wonder, Which
IS in JflTfl.
From the Philadelphia Times.
Java has the eighth wonder of the
world in the Boro Budur Temple. It is
built entirely of lava and covers a ground
space larger than four average city
squares. That is is not better known is
probably due to the fact that it is in
?he interior, far from the beaten track
of the traveler. Further than this not
more than one native in a thousand
knows anything of it, and he does not
talk about it. The temple is twenty-five
miles from Djokjokarta, and the trip can
i'p made with a coach and four over a fine
broad road as smooth as a floor, and
ined with native villages shaded by tow-,
ering cocoanut and palm trees.
Ir is a journey never to be forgotten,
a *1 the drive is all too so( n oyer when at
1 ngth the Temple of Boro Budur looms
in sight. The traveler having previously
in all probability met no one who ha
< ver seen this wonderful structure, and.
having heard but th-- vaguest hints as to
its size, and nothing relating to its wealth
of statues and bas-r* liefs, is fairly dazed.
■ Ppon Him who has previously seen the
temples of Egypt, of Greece and of India,
Haaibec, In Syria, and the wonderful
ruins of Girgenti, if ruins they may he
called, where the ravages of time are
scarcely apparent, and the altar and
stairways stand intact—who has lingered
among the baths, aqueducts and amphi
theaters of Daly and the south of France
—it is doubtful if the first impressions of
thfsc wonders of architecture in any way
equal the effect produced by this lava
temple in the heart of Java. When one
hes seen pictures of famous ruins and
photographs in great numbers, and for
v C ars read and heard descriptions of the
most enthusiastic kind, It is seldom that
the reality very far surpasses the precon
ceive*! idea. The effect of the Boro Budur
Is almost stunning, so unexpected is the
grandeur of the sight presented.

probably the people and religions of conti

LOVE LETTERS TO ORDER.
Strange Occupation of Certain I’er-

From the Mexican Herald.
Perhaps there is no more charade Istlc
sight in Mexico than the so-* a’l and
“evangelistas” who ply their trade in he
Plazuela de Belem and the Plazue’a of
Santo Domingo. Those who operate in
the former siot make a spe* ialtv’of writ

seen any day in the Plazuela of Santo
Domingo, do a general business. They
write love letters, blackmailing 1 iters a* and
ull sorts of letters for those who do n t

missive. They also undertak without

state that only very Ignorant pe pie, who
are totally unacquainted even with the
simple formalities of mailing a I**Uer, in
addition to not knowing how to wuite,
have recourse to the evangelistas for
stamps.
one of the Santo Domingo evangelistas
is now in prison meditating over the R.c
that to defraud the government even out
of 5 cents may be a very s* ri* u-t matt r
in the eyes of the law. Th name of this
evangelista is J.'P. Vasques. His ser

to write a letter to her husband, who is
absent from the city. After he had writen
ihe letter Vasques asked Mrs. Hernandez
if she wanted a stamp. On h r asosnting

THE WARLOCK PEAR.
Said to He tlie Mont Wonderful Vege
table In Existence.
From the Chicago News.
Few families possess an heirloom that
can compare either in rarity or antiquity
with th Warlock pear of Coflsfcoun, which
is beyond doubt, the most wonderful
\eg*vaUe curiosity in existence an 1 its
)Ut!;enticity beyond dispute. Hugo, Lord
• le. Gifford of Yester, the magician, liv and
in the reign of King Alexander HI of
Scotland H© prmofNed himself befor©
the King previ us to the hat- e of I ar s.
1263 and is d* scribed by Sir Walter 8 otr
in * Marmion. ’
The wizard Lord of Yesuer gave his
•laughter in marriage to a scion of tie
ancient family of Hay. ancestor to the
1 r©s nt Marquis of Tweddale. As the
bridal party was on its way to the church
the magician plucked a pear from a tree
hard by and gave b to his* daughter as
her and wry, informing her that so long as
s :e and hor descendants preserved It so
long should they prosper. The pear was
FOOD CURE.
Results In Change of Diet Are Won
tlerf ul.
“Good food, properly selected, will, in
my opinion, cure almost any ordinary
disease. I want to tell you my experi
ence iind of my recovery by the selection
of the proper diet. I am a business
woman, very closely confined Indoors,
with considerable care and anxiety.
Some time ago I had a severe case of ihe
grippe and after recovering from it, had
a serious lime following, as many people
do.
“I was unable to get well until I
changed my diet, leaving off Mocha and
Java Coffee and using the Posium Food
Coffee in is place, and taking up
Grape-Nut breakfast food. This .winter I
have given both a fair and continued trial
and tho results are superb. J am re
stored to perfect health and strength,
and as you claim, I hove, a “reserve
force’" bodily and mentally, that carries
me through many hard places.
“I cannot praise the food too much, for
it will, If used steadily, cute all disturb
ances of the system caused by the con
gestions la grippe la answerable for. A
dish that contains he most powerful re
building elements, can be made as fol
lows: hot milk brought to a boll, break in
two fresh eggs and as soon ns the eggs
set, pour the boiling milk and eggs over
some Grapf Nuts in a soup dish. No.
breakfast of meat can be so good.
“I used Grape Nuts in this way every
morning and have no sense of lack of
food all day. I have kept well and re
markably free from colds nil wln4er,
which I attribute to a tine condition of
health, brought about by the use of the
famous food and a Post uni Food Coffee.’*
(Grape-Nuts are perfectly cooked at fac
tory and are usually served cold, with a
little cream or milk.) Mrs. C. 8. Wood
s ward, 24 Grenada St., St. Augustine, Fla.
