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 tlie Thing if a Satisfactory Crew Can He Made I'p—Monsoon, Lueile, Titnnia and Kntrinka, It Is Said, Maj Also Sail, Making the Race 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 enced on such occasions. * JS THE R ULROAI) WORLD.

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© ar. 1 the carpet beneath him with his life 1)100*1. His Majesty’s excitement had been <°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 oce, which is very near the Empress Dow ager’s own residence of Eho Park. She 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 the Prince of Ei. who brought the tele cram. were simply terrified, and trembled lest her anger should foil on any one pres ent' ‘Who dare send such a telegram?* .u last came her question. ‘Kin Yuan shan (Kin’s official name) of Shanghai and over a thousand others.’ was the Prince of Id’s reply. 'Very well. We’ll show them how vve deal with traitors who ' ross our path,’ and the Prince of Ll .aoked out of the presence with a sense ■>f relief clearly depicted on his face. As i matter of fact. I really think if this bad been the only protest sent the Em press Dowager and her advisers would ove tried to brazen it out and have ig nored the telegram; hut, unfort u pat el v for their schemes, no less thon forty-six protests of the same kind came to Ppkin. me after the other, some a dozen in a day. until the Empress Dowager believed that there was really something in it and decided to defer her coup—mark me. did not give up her intentions, but merely de ferred them. “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 denounce Kin as the ringleader of rebell ion ahd I may give a warning that the Empress Dowager is determined to hove bis head, even if it should cost her half he empire. There will be nothing left undone in order to encompass her end. and 1 heard the Empress Dowager say. re cently to Prince Ching. who. as grand chamberlain, can enter the palace at all unirs of the day on*] night to see the Em* ►r ss Dowager, that ‘others of the Kank Yu-wei and Kin party must also bo put out of the* way before either she or the new Emperor will be able to rule the em pire quietly.’ Finally, you may not know • bat ever since the fateful, enforced abdi cation of the Emperor His Majesty has four times attempted to commite suicide: his Inst attempt being the refusal of food and drink, in order to starve himself to death. “Pekin, March 2.” 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. On the lop of an eminence, which has been level* and to some extent to receive it is the temple o e Boro Budur. It is no* *juto spi are. but marl* so. each sf.’e be ing about 62> feet in 1* gtb.

At what era i THE MORNING NEWS: SATURDAY, JUNE 10,1000. Pinkham The one thing that quali fies a person to give ad vice on any subject is experience experience creates knowledge. No other person has so wide an experience with female ills nor such a record of success as Mrs. Pinkham has had. Over a hundred thou sand cases come before her each year. Some per sonally, others by mail. And this has been going on for 20 years, day after day and day after day. >. Twenty years of con stant success think of the knowledge thus gainedf Surely women are wise in seeking ad vice from a woman with such an experience, es pecially when it is free. If you are Hi get a bottle of Lydia £. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound at once- then write Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass. did it first swarm with priests and de votees? We have no records of my v< r\ to guide us. It is asserted by some ihit the temple derives its name from B r> the district in which it Is situa ed, r.d I’udur, ancient, while others think i is a corruption of Bara, meat, and B lddha The la*ter is most probably cornet and the district has taken its* name 1‘ om ih • lempb*. The statues at 8010 Budur ar to all appearances images < f Buddha, nud no statues of undoubted Biahminical origin are to be seen in the building, 1 though one was once discovered in on ad jacent field, and in ruins in no great < i - are many armed figures, evidently of some Brahminical gol. It is hard to mistake an intended 1 k - ness of Buddha, for even the most inf. io artist throughout the East seem- suc cessful in imparling to the countena e that smile of utter contempt o human affairs which all, and Buddha most of all, must feel in Nirvana. Ai Brambin.m about thirty-five miles distant, are s a*ms clearly traceable to votari< of Brahma. We know that in India tlie two religion-; flourished s.ide by side until a period when, a biaer rivalry having arisen, th* miller cult of Buddha was forcibly supplinted by the weird and fantastic gods of the Brah mins. Whether Buddhism met a similar fate in Java it is impossible to say. there being no reliable records until the cover ion * f the people to Mohammedanism in ihe fif teenth century. Some wr'ters l *a\ e con jectured that the sway of th#* Hindu- was extended to Java in the sixth entury of our era. but this is conjecture only, and probably the people and religions of conti nental India had gained a foothold in the island at a far earlier period. The appearance < f the ruins in Java can in no way aid us in forming an c stimte of their age. since the uniformity of climate and absence of frost leave nothing to n jure the temples of lava beyond the rank vegetation and an occasional earthqu >k . The inhabitants of Java are now Moham medan and have no traditions relating ;o tlie temples of their island, though the., -till regard the images with a certain rev erence. When we consider the* tnignty mass of masonry, the extr* me hardness of the lava and the great extent and endl- ss variety of the bas-reliefs, it b come- a question whether any archit* cturai re mains now existing compare in the tmo tit i labor expended with t’e-e w nd rful ruins in the interior of Java. LOVE LETTERS TO ORDER. Strange Occupation of Certain I’er- Konn in the City f Mexico. 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 ing letters to the /inmates of the pr.s n for their illiterate relatives on the out side; but the “evangelistas,” who may 1 e 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 know how r to write, at a rate f 6, 9 * r more cents, according to the 1 ngtn o ihe missive. They also undertak without ertra charge to write the aud-ess on the envelope and to attach the te iubed tarn >. but for the latter they mak© **n exfa charge of 1 cent. It is hard y n c* s a y to 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 vices were engaged by Mrs. Hernandez 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 be attached a 5-eei t stamp and ooileciedti cents, in addition to his regular ch irge for wrking the letter. With* the address and stamped envel oj*e Mrs. Hernandez went t< Be brunch p stoffice in the ex-aduana building and not knowing in which box io drop it, wk . and ihe postal i* sp ctor, M mue: l-poin si who happened to be in the po t ftl**, , for information on th** sulj*<u. M . Kspi o a took 'll** letter to read th© address and was about to return it to Mrs. llernand z wb*n he noticed that the color of the stamp was extremely dim. By still los r scrutiny he discovered that the s amp bad been already canceled and ih- faintness of color was due to a chemical (realm * t that had been applied for the purpose tf effacing the ink of the seal. The inspector asked the Hernai dez vo man from whom she had bought tb<* stamp and she led him to ih* stand of the evangelista from whom sin* had ma le the purchase.
