YANKEE SHIP AND CREW. HANK HAFF WILL CAPTAIN THE CUP DEFENDER. And She Will Hava a Crew <>» GenolJff Yankee Hallora-Thc New Scoteh Ciittai Alisa-TA Great Yacht llace In Proa, pect. Vigilant and Jubilee. There are a few thing# nettled in regard to the new cup defender now building at Bristol. K. 1., by the Horreaboff Bros. One is that she will boa keel sloop, of the latest pattern, and

Capt Hank Haff.

the most modern material and equipment. and another is that she will have a Yankee crew as well as a Yankee captain. Capt. Haff, who sailed the Puritan and Volunteer to victory will command the American yacht, and he has selected a crew of Maiue sailornien. every one of whom is a pure-bred Yankee, to handle her. Two events have lately caused serious concern in this country regarding the coining contest. One was the illnose of Nat Herreshoff. who is just recovering from an at lack of typhoid pneumonia, due to cold and overwork in laying out details for the construction of the new yacht, and the ether is the phenomenal success of thu new Scotch cutter Alisa, in her first races in French waters, where she has easily defeated the Prince of Wales' cutter Britannia. There are many reasons to think that tlie Aiisa may prove to be the cup challenger. By rhe terms of the agreement with the Royal Yacht Club, another yacht can be substituted for Lord Dunraven.'s Valkyrie if the Englishmen deem it advisable. The Aiisa was designed by Fife, the bril liant young Scotch boat builder, and the “canny" Scotchmen have played a neat game in getting American ideas. Some two year's since. Mr. Allen, of .Glasgow, ordered' a ton ton yacht of the HerresholTs. This Ihtle keel sloop, the Dakota. Ira«; had phenomena I success in European walers. She has won more victories, in two seasons of racing, than any yacht of her class ever before sailed across the water. Mr. Fife bas taken advantage o f Aja-

■ \ J fe 7 1 ‘1 V i ” The Ailsn.

erican ideas of beam, fig ami contour and in the Alisa hah, designed a yachl which is probably very nearly .on the lines that the Herreshoffs will use in the new' cup defender. T BuU Americans need not despair The Herrechoffs will show some ideas in their newest, yacht that the Johnny Bulls have never heard of. She will be constructed of aluminum bronze, the newest, lightest ami strongest anti-fouling mettfi yet discovered Her form and rig will show that Am erica has always something pew to offer Che. old world. There are nian\ s reasons io think that she will prove aS great a surprise tc the Epglishmen as the long line of cup defenders for over forty years pasi have all proven to be. American yacht builders are nothing if not original. Many will regret that the new cup defender Is not to be a centreboard yacht. But the Herreshoffs know’ what they are about. Their greatest successes have been with such keel yachts as rhe Wasp and the Dakota. The real light between American and Englisii yachts has been over the question of beam. The English have at last adopted the American idea, and all their new' yachts have wide beam. The America, the victor of the first cup fight between Ihe two nations. Was a keel schooner. The centre board has been, driven out by the fin or bulb-keel —an invention of the Herreshoffs. While ii is probable that the new yacht building at Bristol by the Her-

'7ijA\ " wit The Jubilee.

resboffs will be the cup defender, the Vigilant, repaired and improved, will be in the trial races, and Boston yachtsmen will alter Ren. Paine’s yacht Jubilee, which showed remarkable speed under a faulty rig ini 1883. It is just possible the Jubilee may bother all the new yachts. R. L.

THE KING OF FASHION. Vho Mimi F.iiikoim of (u,«»ni»k<'r« Away hi I’hM* Chnrles Frederick Worth, the most famous of all PaHsian dressmakers, died in Paris on Marell 11. aged 70 years. His name was world-wide. He was an Englishman, as his looks indicated. but ho was a Frenchman by laste and profession. He was born at Bourne, in Lincolnshire, 1X25. ■ Worth's father was a solicitor, with n good private fortune, which he lost in speculation. At the age of thirteen, young Worth went to the great dry £oods house of Swan & Edgar, in London. and remained there for seven years, during which time lie did all the work of an ordinary apprentice. In this large establishment he developed and perfected hi# appreciation for the productions of the French milliner# ami dressmakers. superintending the unpacking of every case of pattern garpientc that arrived, and speedily becoming an authrrtty in all matters Connected with sty I dincss of cut and ta#iefuliu*ss of trimming. But Paris alone afforded a field for the full exorcise of his talent, and to Paris he accordingly, went, t'ltimatel.V he obtained a situation al Gagelin’s. a firm noted for silks woven by workmen in their homes, and with this firm.’ which led all others in selling material and making it up. as well, he remained for twelve ygars. beginning himself with the making of cloaks, and as early as 1X55 designing a train Uut gained a rneda) for him.

The little rebellion in Cuba seems I have aroused all the fire in Spani.d blood. Troops and tleetsr havtr-beem hurried to the defense cf Spanish auibcrtiy in Cuba. So anxious have tbt Spanish authorities been for feu« oi American aid to the Cuban revolutionists, that, on March 8. off the eastern Coast of Cuba, a Spanish gunboat fire”; three shots at the United States mai sieatnship Allianca. which was on hei regukir vovange .|rqpr Colon U> Nev;

t " llw Wf x- ' The A liaiica

York, with a cargo of South American products, including many tons of per ishable fruit. The Allianca is commanded by Capt James Crossman, who took the dynamite cruiser America, to Brazil last year. Perhaps the Spanish captain ' had heard of Crossman, and suspected that he intended to aid the Cuban rebels. At least, the Allianca encountered a Spanish gunboat about twe leagues 'east of the Cuban coast on March 8. The Spaniard showed the Spanish colors, and the Allianca set the United Suites flag, and dipped U. three times in salute. The Spaniard replied by dipping his flag, and then set tome signals which Ca.pt. Crpssman, having a cargo of perishable fruit, did not slop to read. Then the Spaniard fired two blank shots, and followed them by three solid shots, which passed near the Allianca. The American steamer refused to stop and, putting on til! steam, soon gat oul out Os range. The Allianca belongs to the Columbian Line Steamship Company of New York, and carries the United States mail. It is probable the Spanish captain bas blundered seriously in firing upon her. De übl loss a demhnd foi apology and reparation will be nuulf i upon Spain, and. should she refuse i the same, a very lively time may bt 1 anticipated. The-Spanish minister, at I Washington has iiUpiuicti the Utah ! Department that Spain will apologize and make due reps ration if the tacts of the firing as stated by the officer! . of the Allianca, prove to be true. 1 ’ I think Thy thorn Ijt after Thee.

Dish Price Legitimate. St. Loris. April 13.—Representatives of the large packinghouses at the stockyards say tiie advrnict' in—fhe-'priee of dressed beef is legitimate and caused by the advance in cattle. They claim they have been working at a disadvantage during the past six mouths, as the mice of cattle has advanced more rapidly than the meat. Cattle commission ifierchants say the high price of cattle is 4ue to their scarcity. Owing to the short crop of corn, native cattle have beeu -scleaned up closer -th in in many years. Cattle Supply Short. Chicago, April 13. —Referring to the proposed investigation by Secretary Morton, Mr. P. A. Armour said yesterday: “The shortage in cattle supply at the four principal*western markets thus far this year amounts to nearly 27(3,000 head, compared with a year agb. The shortage in pounds, of dressed beef since the first of the year figures out about 175,000,000, or nearly 3,(MH),000 pounds per day. At- the same time rhe price of live cattle has advanced about 2 cents ner oound. HORRIBLE DEATH. Moulder Falls Into a Pit W here a 1 Ladle of Liquid .Metal Pours Over Him. Phillipsbvrg, N. J., April -13,— Charles Schcinsteiu, a moulder at the Warren pipe foundry, this city, met with a terrible death yesterday afternoon. While assisting to pour a ton of moulton iron in a mould, the chain holding the ladle broke and Scheinstein was jerked into a pit with the liquid metal on top of him. His eyes were burned out and his legs and hands were almost severed from his body. He died an hour afterward. B Mysterious Assault. Chicago, April 13. —R. Hunter, a wealthy cattle dealer at the Union stock yards, was the victim of an assault, while sitting in his office last night, which will probably result in his death. The cause of the assault is a mystery and the assailant is unknown.*' Hunter was alone in his office at the time. He was struck with a brick which fractured his skull. . —y---Mr. Huiiter died at 1:30 this morning. No trace of his assailant Ihis yet been found. • Fatally Scalded, Knoxville, Tenn., April I.—Passenger train- No. 2, eastbound, which left here at 4 o’clock yesterday afternoon on the Southern railway was wrecked one mile west of' Afton, a small station 80 miles from here.

Ili-e mention of the bicycle for worn, en 'opens a field of mild controversy which is only important because some of the objections to its use arc taken, from the hygienic, standpoint as well as from the social. Many objectors contend that the wheel is as undesirable'for'women as the sewing machine whtte majority of parents, seriously objects to what they feel to be the unpleasant publicity of the exercise. As a matter of health, which is of the first importance, the writer has made many inquiries among women who use the wheel regarding the effects of the exercise upon them, and has failed to ’•discover a. single case of injury or poor health resulting from its use. On the contrary. the testimony to its exhilarating and healthful effect is" universal. Several other American physicians. qualified to speak from experience in their practice among women, have warmly commended its use From the standpoint of a symmetrical exercise. the position is preferable, to that of a horse. The. movement is unlike that of the sewing machine in several important respects: instead, of being bowed over in a cramped position which restricts the action of lungs, digestive and pelvic organs alike, the woinan rider sit,- ereel, with full op_portunity for chest expansion, while the difference between' -thei'environ. ment of the sewing woman and the riding woman as regards indoor and cut-of-door life is most important.--Dr. Mary T.
