times, and the preacher paid hiia out.

young man became infuriated, went
into the yard, got an ax, and crushed
Mr. Chambers' head. He has been ar
iested, and the feeling against him is
ery high.

YALE VICTOR OVER HARVARD.
THE SONS OF ELI WIN THBJ VARSITY
RACE.
When The End of the For Mile Strangle
Was Reached the Shells Were. Less Than
a Length Apart.
New London, Conn., June 27.iYale
won the 'varsity race with Harvard
this evening by less than a length in
the last 100 yards of the four-mile
stru' t was one of the most beau
tiful fcsts between the crews of the
two liiirsities ever seen on the river.
From the sound of the referee's pis
tol until the finish it was anybody
race. Harvard got the best of the
start and was slightly ahead in the
first mile, then Yale pulled to the
front. Harvard spurted and the boats
were even. Then the Crimson shell was
a bit ahead and at three-mile mark it
seemed as if Harvard would be vic
torious, but the awful pace was telling
on the Cambridge boat. Yale came up
alongside again and along the line be
tween rows of yachts that flanked thi
line it was absolutely an even thing.
The shells entered the finishing mile
with bcautii'ui water conditions be
tween the Ion? lane of yachts, and it
remained for this mile to afrord the
most spectacular contest seen on the
Thames for many a year. With guns
booming and sirens shrieking the two
boats swept down the line. Harvard
was still ahead, but Yale was clinging
to her close. It was not until the three
and a half flags were 'within hailing
distance that Chittenden, the Yaie
eovswain, called on his men for a
mighty effort. Up went the Yale stroke
and up crept the Yale shell. Harvard
tried to respond and her men answer,
the call heroically, but the sons of Eli
tore along in a style that was madden
ing for Harvard's supporters. The
three and a half mile point found Yale
again in the lead. She was never head
ed. Indeed with Harvard never letting
down for an instant, Yale took on
strength and the Yale men began to
steal away by feet. It was nothing but
Yale after this and became the gener
ous proportions of a length. Then it
was one length and open water ap
peared for the first time. It was the
old story of a Yale crew with skill and
endurance to stay in the last stages of
the long journey. Yale's victory was
one of a scant two lengths. The time
on account of the low stroke rowed,
was slow. The official time was Yale,
23:37; Harvard, 23:45.
The end found Goodell, the bow oar
ir. "c IT?T",rr,-!'fl in. fl "fP.te of col
lapse. It was necessary to lift him from
his seat into the launch. In the YaU.
shell Stroke Cameron, too, was in dis
tress, but he was able to help himself
to the Yale launch. The other oars
men were strong and in good condi
tion. The freshman race and the four-oar
contest preceded the big contest of th
day. In the freshman eights Yale
took the lead at the start and was nev
er headed. The time was: Yale, 10:27
4-5; Harvard, 10:48.
Harvard won the four oars easily,
crossing the line in 11:49 15, six
lengths ahead of Yale. The time of
Yale was 12:09 1-5.
Country Homes Improving.
North Carolina Baptist.
One of the best signs in connection
with the home life of our people is the
improvement which is so marked in
the sun oundinga and furnishings of
the average home in the country .
We have closely observed this tor the
I past ten years and this improvement Is
gratifying. Bare floors are giving
ilace to carpets and matting; silent
walls are being made to speak eternal
messages from appropriate pictures,
and pianos and organs are on every
hand to cheer and gladden and enter
tain. And whenever there is a gath
ering of young people in the country
home the sweet songs of Zion are sung
with a beauty and richness that is won
derful. There is very little of the light
and frivolous in their music And
from these homes are coming men and
women who are leaders in our churches
and Important factors in the social life
of the country.
This betterment of the homes bears
better interest on the investment than
stocks and bonds or cattle and lands.
It makes home more attractive gives
it stronger holding qualities and a
place that the boy and girl are not
anxious to leave.
PRIZE CASES DECIDED.
Boats and Cargoes Captured at
Slanila are Prizes, but Prop
erty Taken on Shore is Not.
Washington, June 27. Justice
Bradley, in the Equity Court today,
decided the Manila and Santiago Bay
prizes. Ihe decision is in favor, of
the claimants as to vessels captured
and as to property taken from vessels
so captured and not destroyed; that
property captured ashore is not sub
ject to prize; vessels sunk and not
claimed as prize and for which bounty
was given is prize; that the cargoes or
cargo boats and all floating derricks
that were captured at Manila are not
prize.
The Santiago cases hinges on the
Manila decision. According to coun
sel the claimants, in the Manila case
receive a total of $288,000, divided
among about 2,0u0 people, and the
claimants in the Santiago case will get
in the neighborhood of $5t0,00U dis
tributed among about 3,000 persons.
These hgures, however, are not final.
These amounts are in addition to the
bounties already allowed by the Court
of Claims. Admiral Dewey, his offi
cers and men, are the claimants in the
Manilla case, and Admiral Sampson,
his officers, and men are the claimants
in the Santiago case.
The Leprosy Scare.
There is no little alarm over the pres
ence and increase of leprosy in the
United States.
Recently eight thousand letters of
inquiry were sent out by the govern-,
ment health authorities of Washington
to local health officers, city and count
ry physicians and heads of all the hos
pitals in the country asking informa
tion regarding toe existance of leprosy
and the condition of its victims. Up to
the first of last week two thousand re
plies had been received. They disclose
the presence of 275 lepers in the Unit
ed States and it is believed that the
total number in this country is- fully
1,000.
Of the cases already reported to the
authorities at Washington 76 are in
Louis ana, 23 in Minn sota, 15 in North
Dakota, 5 in Chicago, and 6 in New
York.
The Pacific coast, where there is
probally more leprosy than in any oth
er part of this country, has not been
officially heard from.
- Nearly all tne lepers in the United
States who have been reported are for
eigners. Those in Louisiana are
Leprosy has increased in this coun
try to an extent which, in the opinion
of the medical officials at Washington
makes it necessary for the federal au
thorities to assume control of it as it
has over other epidemics. As to the
probabilities of the spread of this terri
ble disease in the United States opinions
differ widely, but all agree that every
possible precaution against it should
be taken.
Our closer relations with Hawaii
and the countries of the far east,where
leprosy abounds, account for the large
number of cases of leprosy in the
United States, where it was until a
recent date almost entirely unknown.
Flesh a Natural Food.
Everybody's Magazine.
There is no doubt of the fact that an
excessive use of alcohol acts on the
system as a direct poison and pro
duces most disastrous effects, an i to
eat too much beef deranges digestion
and t-f interferes with thought but
further than this there seems to be no
rounds ior specfciiiz ifion. I have oi
ten iea?d it claimed that eating of
flesh tends to turn man into a preda
tory animal of a carnivorous cha.act
er that is, to make a lion, a tige. or
a hyena but it appears more reasona
ble to suppose that the lion feeds on
Ush, because it is his natural liodr
rather than the eating of flesh made
a lion out of him instead of a gazelle.
I don't know how many billions of
years you would have to feed a ga
zelle on flesh before it would be turnr
ed into a lion; nor could I calculate
how many years you would ha re to
feed a lion on cereals before you could
turn hi m into a gazelle.
