THE RECORD BROAD JUMP
MADE BT SnUCCSE JIAX AT PHIL
ADELPHIA YESTERDAY.
Exceeded Former Record by Three
Inches University of Penusyl- (
vasUa's Greatest Carnival.
PHILADELPHIA. April 2S.-One world'
record was shattered and the world' fig
ure for another record were equalled to
day on Franklin Field during the, sixth
annual relay races under the auspices of
tho University of Pennsylvania. The new
vorld's record was made by M. Prlnsteln,
the mervelous Jumper of Syracuse Univer
sity, who Jumped 2( feet VA inches in the
broad Jump. "The former record was held
by AC. Kraenzleln. of Pennsylvania, at
21 feet 44 Inches. The 100-yard-dash fig
ures of 9 4-6 seconds were equalled by A.
J. Duffy, of Georgetown University, who
holds the American championship.
Today's relay race carnival proved to bs
the greatest the University of Pennsylva
nia has held since Its inception, six ear
-ago. The weather was clear and warm:
the track good and 'exceptionally fast. All
, the cventi were warmly contested, and
the largest crowd that has ever gathered
on Franklin Field to see relay races was
present. Over 100 of the large colleges,
.academies and-preparatory scboolr In the
East were represented In the various
events, and over 450 athletes were entered.
In the broad Jump there were only two
contestants Prlnsteln and Kraenzleln. Tha
latter, who holds the world's records for
the 120-yard and 220-yard hurdle race:,
has been ill for some time, and had to givo
up training until a few days ago. He only
Juniped twice, and the best he could do
was 23 feet 2V inches; Prlnsteln took three
leaps, breaking "Kraenzleln" a record on the
second Jump. He was loudly cheered when
the result was announced.
Duffy, the Georgetown sprinter, ran a
strong race In the 100-yard dash, as Is
proved by his equalling the world's rec
ord. He led all the way. while his com
rade from Georgetown, E. C. Minnehan,
kept second position from the start to the
finish.
The one-mile relay college championship
was looked forward to with the greatest
interest, and was won by the fleet of the
Chicago "University in a magnificent strug
gle. It was the best relay race of the
day, and the time made was only 1 second
slower than the world's record, which
stands at 3:22 3-5.
Princeton had no trouble In winning the
two-mile relay college championship from
Pennsylvania. Columbia, the other com
petitor, was never In It after the start.
Princeton's time was five seconds faster
than any two-mile relay race ever run on
Franklin Field.
The field events did not bring out any
thing startling. Sheldon, formerly of
Yale, won the shot put and discus events;
Boynton, of Cornell, captured the hammer
throw; Baxter, of Pennsylvania, the high
Jump, and Coleman, of Princeton, the pole
vault.

Maeadam Iload 'Will Be Sprinkled
Assurances are now given that the White
House road, which has recently been coat
ed with loose stone for a portion of the
main drive, will be In good condition by
May 15. Contractor Howard, who has tho
work In charge, told A. C Lohmlre, ono
ot the Driving Association's committee
men looking after the matter, that screen
of light material would be put on the stone
Immediately, after which the whole would
be thoroughly rolled and the sides scraped
down. It Is the Opinion ot some roadbulld
ers that a macadam road cannot be well
packed If It Is laid after the Winter
rains. They contend that a fair surface
can be put on It by heavy rolling, but the
packing process does not go deep, nor la
It thorough. For this reason the Driving
Association, at Its last meeting, viewed
the prospects for a good drive on the
White House road this season as very
discouraging. The members even castabout
to see If some other highway suitable for
a fine drive and convenient to the city
could not be located. Nono was located,
and preparation for Spring work com
menced, conditioned on whether the Coun
ty Commissioners succeeded In finishing
up the White House road in time. Mr.
Lohmire's Interview with the contractor
is more reassuring, and subscriptions for
the sprinkling, taken every year by the
Driving Association, will be rushed.

MANILA. March 19. To the Editor.)
What a pity It Is that Pettlgrew and the
men who think they think as he thinks
he thinks were not living In California at
the time the United States purchased that
territory without the consent ot the peo
ple living there. They would hare died
rather than consent to bo sold as serfs
with the land. There are thousands still
living In the territory purchased from
Mexico who were thus treated as serfs,
and. as It is never too late to do right,
would it not be advisable to start a little
missionary" work nearer home than tho
Philippines and advise these people that
they owe it to their manhood to throw off
the yoke ot the oppressor or die to the
attempt?
Alaska offers an opportunely for the
same kind of missionary work.
VERITAS VINCET.
BRYAN DEMOCRATS.
Score Tammany and Other Leaders
for Their Opposition.
NEW YORK. ApriTn-The state com
mittee of the Chicago platform Democ
racy held a meeting here last night and
ratified the action of Its convention com
mittee In changing the time and place
of holding Its state convention from May
21. In Albany, to May 19, In this city.
In an address which the state commit
tee has issued under the caption, "Ot
Interest to Democrats of New York
State," the committee says that it Is
the Intention of the coming convention to
select delegates to tho National Conven
tion because the regular organization Is
controlled by men who do not represent
the party, who did not support Bryan In
1S9G. and who are. In reality, antagonistic
to Democratic principles. Of these state
leaders, the committee says:
"They do not say: 'We will send an In
structed delegation, so there can be no
question raised.' No. on the contrary.
they say: 'It Is not the custom to send an
Instructed delegation from this state, and
Tammany Representatives In Congress
and others prominent In this political cir
cle come out in advocacy for Dewey and
any kind of a platform, except the re
affirmation of the platform of 1S36. We
tmnk you will agree with us that these
en cannot be trusted.
"There would not be a particle of doubt
of securing a Bryan delegation from New
York If his opponents would meet us In
a fair and manly way. They refuse to
put up delegates openly pledged to any
thing, but it can be only for the purpose
of deceiving the voters Into voting for
delegates supposed to be for the Chicago
platform and Bryan, but who would turn
out in the convention to be against him.
Any delegates who .refuse to be instructed
to vote for Bryan do not intend to vote
for him. and any delegate who Is not
pledged for Bryan Is secretly pledged
against Mm."
I NEW COXSTITUTIOX IX VmGIXIA.
Agitation for It Said to Be Based on
Jloatlllty to the Xegro.
NEW YORK. April IS. A sneelal to thn
Times from Richmond. Va.. savs: The
I question of calling a constitutional con
vention In Virginia, primarily for the dis
franchisement of the negroes, has been
practically settled so far as the Demo
crats are concerned. A majority of the
delegates to the Democratic State Con
vention, which meets at Norfolk on
May 2. are Instructed in favor ot making
tne can for the convention a party issue.
This matter Is now the absorb! nir one In
.Virginia, and the demand for the dis
franchisement of the negroes and other
constitutional reforms has entirely over
shadowed the original purpose for which
tne jsorrolk meeting was called.
Tho constitution under which the peo
ple now live was adopted In 1S69 by what
was Known as the Underwood convention.
That body was composed of Northern
settlers and negroes. The white people
of Virginia, very many of whom were
then disfranchised, had little or no part
in iormuiating the organic law under
which they have lived since. There Is an
overwhelming sentiment In the state In
favor of eliminating the colored vote from
Its politics forever. This can only be
accomplished by constitutional revision.
The elimination of the black vote is de
manded not only from the great black
belts of Virginia, but also by the white
counties. Some of the largest and most
influential of the latter elected delega
tions instructed to favor a convention.
The keynote of this radical suffrage re
form has been sounded by the declara
tions of some of the great negro coun
ties. These. In effect. Insist that the pres
ent political conditions cannot continue
in the Old Dominion. The plain explana
tion ot these explanations Is that the
people are tired ot the means which they
nave Dee,n forced to countenance In order
to retain white supremacy In the state.
They now demand that a constitutional
convention shall be assembled and the
negroes removed from politics.
The elements opposing this movement
are the great corporations, the local of
fice-holders and the Republicans. Some
of the Democrats, Including Governor
Tyler, have taken the position that their
party cannot carry tho convention at the
polls on May 28. They Insist that the
elements named, with the addition of the
illiterate whites, will defeat it.

Velocity and Enersry.
Blackwood's Magazine.
Velocity Is measured by the number of
feet traversed In a second. Thus a cricket
ball hit hard travels about 100 feet per
second, which Is about the rate at whlcn
a carrier-pigeon flies. A golf ball may
start at lBO feet per second, an arrow at
250 feet, a. pistol bullet at 750 feet, a rifle
bullet at 1500 to 2000 feet, and so on. But
the energy of the blow delivered by a pro.
Jectlle when Instantaneously stopped in Its '
flight is proportional not to the velocity, I
but to the velocity multiplied by Itself or
squared; so that. If tho velocity be dou
bled, the energy Is Increased four-fold.
But the energy Is directly derived from
tho propellant, the pinch ot villainous
saltpetre. So that If we wsh to doublo
the velocity of a bullet, we must produce
four times the energy, to obtain which we ,
must Increase tho charce four-fold. And
we cannot have energy forward without j
energy backward, or recoil.
If we take a pistol with 750 f. s. veloc
ity, quadruple the charge and give our
new weapon four times the length of bar
rel for the gases to expand In, we get a
rifle with twice the velocity obtained by
the pistol, or 1500 f. s.; but we also In
crease the recoil to such an extent that If
a rifle was held like a pistol 'It would tly
back into the face of the flrer.
