SEAGRAVEDIES AFTER MISHAP Windermere, Eng., June 14. —(U.R) —The only concern of Major Sir! Henry Seagrave, ace of sportsmen, on his deathbed by Lake Windermere was whether he had broken the world's speed boat record. | . Contrary to general reports, A.; !V. Peck, rear-commodore of the! j Windermere Boating Club, announI ced Seagrave was conscious until j 'three minutes before he died, He! suffered greatly, but acted with I | marvelous fortitude, those with him ; said. I nly Seagrave, at h r husband’s I 's'de. infotmed him he had broken the recortl. Segrave then demand,ed by how much. He appeared ' satisfied when she told him, and ; at 5:15 p. m. died. His average speed in his two-1 mile tests was 98.76 miles an hour, I more than five miles an hour fast-1 er than the record set by Gar Wood, an American, last April. At the instant of the crash, his speed was over 100 miles an hour, j Segrave’s death was due to in-1 ternal hemorrhages which resulted j when broken libs on the right side ; ! penetrated the lung. - The Indy of E. Halil well, the me- ; ohan'c who also lost his life, had not bean recovered today, but it was not believed within the boat, I which was lying on the bottom of: the lake in 180 feet of water. M. J. Willcocks, the oth r me-1 J chunky who suffered a broken i thigh, could give no reason for the boat's sudden swerving dive. His condition was favorable today. 0 Chinese Wisdom An upright mind is master of the body, while a selfish mind Is always subject to the decrees of the body.—Wang Yang Ming.

Schmeling’s victorv over Shir- | t.-pv on a foul provided an unsatisfactory ending, but a sense of fair tl-’v makes it impossible to deprive him of tlie laurels, even though his ruper'orlty is questioned, Tlie New York, Illinois and o<*’iforria commissioners, and the Nettywnl Box ; n•» association prom- • —»il I-,.fore tlie bout.

It was learned yesterday tlmt the commission made a secret | agreement for ihe Sharkey-Schmel- i ing bout —allegedly at Sharkey's I 1 insistence- ‘Waiving its rules pen-1 adzing boxen for fouls. The com- ! missioners agreed that Sharkey and Schmeling should Tie paid their full purses regardless of how tlie bout emUd. It also was pointed out that the commission rejected the promoter’s request that the fighters wear white trunks, in order that fouls would be more easily discernable, and that two extra roul judges bo named for the bout, providing one for each side of the ring. Sharkey started the return match “ballyhoo" with the customary losers' offer to light a return match with his purse going to charity. Schmeling followed suit with Ihe traditional winner’s declaration that he would ho a “fighting champion” but later admitted that lie did not Intend to engage In another fight for at least a year. Schmeling has gained many snpporterh since tlie fight, with numerous fans and experts who saw the bout coming around to the opinion that Sharkey had “shot his itolt" and that. Schmeling m'ght have stayed to will the bout if lie hatl not been fouled. HELENE IS ILL, REPORTS SAY i (CONTINUED FROM KAGE ONF’ slowly.

Magda Lupescu. whom K'ng Carol of Roumnnia abandoned last week to ascend his throne, plans to go to Bucharest and maintain a close friendship with! the king. The Daily Mail's dispatch said that when Carol parted from Mine, i Lupescu. he swore he would never forget her, and agreed tacitly that Mine. Lupercu was to return to Roumania,, where Carol would provide for her. Mme. Lupescu feared for her safety if she travelled to Bucharest alone, tlie dispatch said, and therefore t was arranged for Colonel Precop and Major Pa&chcano to meet her and escort iter to the capital. She was to travel under an assumed name, boarding Ihe orient express at Vienna.
