YACHT FLEET OFF ON INITIAL RUN Owing to Storm Only- Two Sloops Started in Single-sticker Class of Vineyard Haven Cruise. Newport, R. I, July 3.—The fleet of the Eastern Yacht club started for Vineyard Haven today on the: initial run of this year’s cruise, on the wings of a fourteen knot northeaster, which gave promise of holding to tha finish and of affording plenty of sport for the racing division. The weather, however, was almost Arctic. Yester- day’s blow had ‘left a dull, lowering sky and the breeze had a decided touch of early spring or late fall. Fleet Captain Ames signalled for a harbor start at one bell on the fore- noon watch, and by 9 .o'clock the squad run was well on its way down Narragansett bay to the ochre-colored lightship which marks Brenton reef. Owing to the storm which held back many of the small poats only two sloops, the Avenger and Narcissus, started in the single-sticker division. They were well on their way to the first turn at Vineyard sound lightship when the schooners, headed by the Fedalma, formerly the Conas, were sent away. The best racing was in the first di- vision of schooners, which included the Enchantress, Vagrant, Princess, Kirin and Shyessa IV. All the yachts crossed the line on the port tack with large reaching sails drawing well. The first leg was seven- teen miles to the Vineyard sound lightship and the boats had the bene- fit of the last of an ebb tide, with the prospect of a favorable current for twenty miles up Vineyard sound to the finish off West Chop.

The Harris theater had a market value of $370,000 when Mr. Harris died, but mortgages. and taxes of $201,767 left an equity of only.$168,- 282. The total equity in real estate was $262,942, which was reduced to $190,824 by the widow's dower inter- est of $62,118.. The appraisal indi- cates that this is ‘all -‘Mrs. Harris re: ceived from her husband’s estate. Mr. Harris’ assets included sums due for loans to a number of the ac- tors and actresses under contract. Inter®st in Productions. The decedent’s interest in a num- ber of his productions included $5,- 000 in ‘“The Quaker Girl,” in which William Harris had a half interest; $2,833 in ‘“Maggie Pepper,” in which Mr. Harris had’ a little over 50 per cent. and Rose Stahl had a third interest; $1,500 for ‘The .Traveling Salesman,” in which James Forbes had a half interest, and $1,875 in “The Tdlker,’ which was sold later to Tully Marshall for $2,500. No value was appraised for the dece= den’t interest in the firm of Henry B. Harris and Jesse Lasky, which conducted the Folies Bergere. = The debts of the partnership were $30,- 381 and the assets only $6,776. - Mr. Harris' interest in his plays which were being produced in stock at the time of his death was ap- praised as follows: ‘The Third De- gree,” $2,000; “The Lion and the Mouse,” $2,000; “The Commuters,” $500; “The Chorus Lady,” $500; “Such a Little Queen,” $200; “Strong- heart,” $200, and the “Country Boy,” $3,000. Yielded Small Profits. F. Howard Schnebbe, general man- ager for Mr. Harris, who began in his employ as an office boy, in tes- tifying concerning the profits of Mr. Harris on various productions said that while “The Quaker Girl' was a New York success it failed im Chi- cago and it was closed there. Mr. Harris later organized a company to produce it on the road in the west and 'the company lost $10,000. The production cost more than $30,000. Mr. Harris ‘“broke even” on ‘The Country Boy,” but “The Arab,” which cost $18,000 to produce, yield- ed an income of only $110. Other plays popularly regarded as great successes, he said, yielded propor- tionately small profits. SR Registrars T. J. Smith and W. H. Scheuy will start Monday making a canvass for new voters for the fall elections. SOME KNOWN FACTS ABOUT RHEUMATISM There are many things that are still unknown about rheumatism. The treat- ment of it is still far from satisfactory. Doctors realize this but nobody i¢ more fully aware of it than the sufferers them- selves. A tendency to rheumatism once estab- lished, the pain often returns with every change of weather, showing that the Ppoison is still in the blood awaiting favor- able conditions to become active and cause trouble. One fact is known and acknowledged by all medical writers and that is the rapid thinning of the blood when the rheumatic poison invades it. Building up the blood is the best remedy for rheu- matism as the enriched blood is able to overcome or throw off the poisons of the disease. For this reason rheumatic guf- ferers should be interested in the success which Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills have had in the treatment of this painful disease. A hook, ‘‘Building Up the Blood,’’ will be sent free on request by The Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y. It contains directions regarding diet, baths and hygiene for rheumatic patients. Dr. Williame’ Pink Pills are sold by all druggists everywhere, nice N, Gibson, | Uneeda Biscuit Tempt ‘the appetite, please the taste and nourish the body.
