C., Aug. 2%.—News was received to-night of the discovery of a ship'’s medicine bottle at Bristol Bay which tells of a tragedy of the northern seas dating back twenty-one years. Harry Barnes, a prospector who has ar- rived at Cape Nome on the schooner Bear from a trip to the Kuskokwim district, was the finder of the message of death. He picked up the bottle, 'h:gl was tightly corked, on the sandspit on Hagenmeister Island. in the north part of Bristol Bay. Belfeving that it might contain something | of value he opened it and found a single sheet of paper, on which, in faded ink and apparently hastily written, were these words: July 24, 1879.—The schooner Albert wrecl in Unimak Pass; J8 hands on board. " Storm still raging. C. McCLOUD, Ship's Master. “Judge Updyke was the only official in that part of the country.” sald Mr. Barnes to a Nome reporter, “and I handed the bottle over to him to give to the Naviga- tion Bureau in Washington, as it would give some clew to the currents there- aboute. The bottle might have been lying for years on the sandspit or it might ;m\'edd‘x;flted there a short time before I oun 52 TRUSTEES OF HOME i FOR FEEBLE-MINDED Governor Gage Announces Appoint. ments of Thomas P.

NEW YORK, Aug. 24.—A violent and protracted rainstorm, accompanied by wind which in some sections approached the proportions of a hurricane, swept over New York City, Westchester County and the northeastern portio nof New Jer- sey this afternoon. The greatest damage so far reported was at Jersey City, where many buildings were wrecked, including a church and a theater. Rain fell intermittently all morning. At 3:30 o'clock Jersey City began to ex- perience the worst storm in its history. Blasts of wind carried widespread de- struction. Two windstorms seemingly met in the neighborhood of Newark avenue and Barrow street, and a cyclonic condi- tion resulted. Horses standing In New- ark avenue and the wagons to which they were hitched were blown over. Telegraph poles and wires fell. A mo- ment or two later the st Mary’s Roman Catholic &'fii’.fia‘?’ fe largest in_the city, fell backward upon the church, striking the roof. Piles of brick from the spire crashed through the roof and down upon the pews. Lion’s Cage Damaged. Two blocks south of St. Mary’s Church and nearly on a line with it on'New York avenue is the Bijou Theater. ‘“The Man Who Dared” company was rehearsing for an opening at the theater. Two lions that are used in the play were in cages on the stage when a sudden rush of wind made the building tremble. Warning cries caused the performers to leave the stage not a_moment too soon. Bricks came down from the high walls, ruining the stage and bending the lions' cage. The lions roared in terror. As the per- formers rushed out a shout was raised in the street that the lions were loose and the crowd which had sought shelter in the corridor fled panic-stricken. The lions did not escape, but their cages were hit and the beasts were cut by the T th side of N n the south side o lewark av posite the theater. the roofs of twelxs three-story bulldingu were ripped off. The storm struck St. Mattisew's German Lutheran Church, demolishing the roof and the steeple. 01d Trees Are Uprooted.

I, Aug. 24.—The Co- lumbia glided across the finish line at 4:08 o’clock this afternoon, for the eighth time a winner over the Constitution. And the most cordial salute that greeted the old champion came from the steam yacht Erin, having on board Sir Thomas Lip- ton, who had himself been beaten three times by the zame boat. There was no second, for the Constitution had quit. After sailing once around the triangular course of the Seawanhaka Club, with the Cotumbia forty-seven seconds a winner, having gained on every leg, both boats ran into a terrific rain squall. They groped about for some time in the down- pour and shifting breezes, hardly able to see two lengths ahead. At last the weath- er cleared a bit. - The Columbia picked up the mark and stood for it. The Constitu- tion, however, had already withdrawn, and having sent down her big topsall was headed for Oyster Bay. The Columbia kept on, finished the race and won the cup. To-day’'s race marks the. finish of the preliminary or tuning up series between the Constitution and the Columbia. They now come to the trial races off Newport, under the auspices of the New York Yacht Club. The boat winning two of the three races, provided there has been a fair test of speed in average cup condi- tions, will undoubtedly be selected by the America’s cup committee to sall in the l?lernatlonsl races against the Shamrock Columbia First on Form. Beginning on July 21 the two candidates for the honor of defending the cup have made ninetcen starts. Out of these there have been sixteen finished—an unusually large number. The Constitution has won eight and the Columbia eight. But these figures, taken alone, do not quite repre- sent the respective merits of the two boats as shown by .ne contests already sailed. A brief review of the results shows that the Constitution has showed superiority in light breezes and smooth seas only. The Columbia has never been beaten in any- thing like a strong and true wind with one exception, which was on_ August 10 off Newport, when she suffered a mishap in a hard hammer to windward in the strong- est breeze of the whole series. When the accident occurred she was ahead of the Constitution in the weather berth, and it is the general opinion that she would have beaten the new boat had she not been obliged to luff into the wind for more than five minutes. However, the performance of the Constitution on that day was a grand one. The wind blew to twenty-four knots at times, and she took the heavy seas and hard puffs, even with a club topsall aloft, in admirable style. The first race, cn July 1, was won by the Columbia in a ten-knot southwester. On July 3 the Columbia became disabled three miles from the start, when she had a lead, and the Constitution refused to take a walkover. On July 6 and 8, in very light airs, at no time blowing over six knots and most of the time under four, the Con- stitution showed up in wonderful form and gave the old boat two decisive beat- ings. 8% the 10th of July the Constitution started, but soon withdrew on account of the thick fog. The Columbia and Inde- pendence went over the course, however, unable to finish within the time limit. On July 11 and 12 the Columbia won two vic- tories, one in a nine-knot southwester and the other in a fresh northeaster. Then came_the races during the cruise of the New York Yacht Club in the light breezes of the Sound. The Constitution took three to the Columbla’s one. On July 14 the Columbia took the Astor cup on the Newport course in handsome style, and the Constitution went to Bristol to change her rig, her managers not being satisfied with her performances. They next came together on August 10 in the hard race al- ready mentioned. On August 12 the Co- lumbia won on time allowance in a very close finish in a light and fluky wind. They started August 14 in a light breeze on a windward and Jeeward course. The wind <ell flat and after four hours of drifting both withdrew, being then on even terms. Then came the light air Larchmont races in the Sound .on August 16 and 17, which the Constitution took, one by a large mar- gin and the other by only fifty-eight sec- onds. The two boats came to Seawanhaka course Thursday and the decisive victory of the Columbia is still fresh in the minds of the yachtsmen. To-day’s race, the last of the long preliminary series, tells its own story. Sir Thomas Talks. NEW YORK, Aug. 24—Sir Thomas Lip- ! ton, when seen by an Associated Press | representative after the race, said: “The weather was bad for racing and I think the Constitution did the right thing in stopping when she did. In that thick weather there was no use taking chances of an accident, either of collision or of running aground. Our yachts on both sides of the water have had experiences enough of that kind.” Sir Thomas re- frained from saying anything regarding the merits of either the Columbia or the Constitution. On board the Erin, as_guests of the Shamrock’s owner, were Lieutenant Col- onel Burbank and his daughters and sev- eral other officers. Captain Sycamore and Navigator Hamilton also saw_ the race | from the Erin. The former laughingly said to the newspaper man: “You brought us out here to give us a soaking. What will you do with us if we take the cup?” Willlam Butler Duncan, the Constitu- tion’s manager, when asked why he quit sald: ““We hove to when the weather got thick and I supposed the Columbia had also quit. T shall take the Constitution east to-night if the weather clears and there will be no more races until the trial races.” L e o e i e i T ) rooted or broken off as though they were made of pipe clay. A piece of the roof of the Union Leegue Club, opposite the middle of the park, was lifted, carried over to the park and dropped on the ground.- No one was killed or injured So_far as known. The storm in New York City was con- fined to a heavy downpour of rain, with a violent wind. It .was heaviest in the Bronx, where the streets were flooded. The cut through which the Harlem divi- sion of the New York Central Raliroad runs from Melrose to Willlams Bridge was flooded to a depth of from two to four feet. At the Fordham station there was much sand on the railroad tracks and trains were unable to get through. At the Hundred and Eighty-third-street station the platform on the downtown side of the railroad = was lifted and washed out to the tracks. This, with the water, blocked all the southbound trains for a ‘time. Negro League Elects Officers. CHICAGO, Aug. 24—The closing session of the National Negro Business League was held yesterday.

Cuba’s Tobacco Industry Safe. HAVANA, Aug. 24.—Gustave Beck in the course of a report to the Clgarmakers’ Union regarding the outlook of the cigar and tobacco industry, expresses the opin- jon that there is no danger to be appre- hended from American competition, so far ‘ as Cuban cigars are concerned. He takes ound that, even if Cuba sent all her :»?;ag to the United States—and she pro- duced 200,000,000 last year—this could not seriously affect the American producers and manufacturers, who last year sold 5,500,000,000 cigars in the United States. i ————— Camper Expires Suddenly.
