Tennis Organization Pro
poses to Increase Its
Membership.
If the plans of the leading spirits in
the Irvington Tennis club are carried
out, the scope of the organization will
bo greatly enlarged, the membership
increased by 200 and the present quar
ters more than doubled in size. The
club now owns 13 lots where its club
house and tennis courts are located and
has an option, which expires January 1,
1910. on the 8 remaining lots in the
block. The membershin of the clnh la
r.ow about 200 and It la proposed to
raise something like $15,000 by doubling
the number of members. This money
will be used in buvlnir ud the outstand
ing stock, buying the eight lots op
tioned to the club and in putting a
foundation under the clubhouse and ad
ding to 4t another story. The eight lots
to be purchased are to be mad Inln a
play and recreation ground for the chil
dren of the members of the club.
Under the plan proposed by those at
the head of the movement, the present
organization will be abandoned and a
new corporation formed embodying the
perpetual trusteeship feature, thereby
preventing the property of the club from
ever being used for any other purpose.
"We shall have to enlarge the scope
of the club or disband," said V. F.
Woodward, . one of its directors, last
night "The membership Is too small to
support the ciub and the clubhouse and
grounds are too small to admit of an
increase in the number of members. For
this reason we must enlarae the clnh.
house and buy more ground or let the
organization die."
The orrioers of the club are: Jay
Charles K. Henry, Sam Lock wood, Wal
ter uoss, waiter uook, r rana Howe, w,
F. Woodward and Richard Wilder, directors.

FINE SHIP ALICE WRECKED
-V. BECAUSE CLOCK WAS SLOW
By John McNulty. '
Very few landsmen knew what part
a chronometer plays in sea Ufa Some
do not know that a chronometer Is only
a very nicely adjusted clock, the best
of which cost around 3300 each. A
chronometer is not carried - aboard of
ship primarily to know what time it is;
In this way tt is different from the
clocks used ashore. A landsman only
connects a clock with time telling, but
a navigator considers a chronometer as
an instrument of navigation. Just as a
compass is, -
A navigator finds out his own time
by means 'of - observations on the
heavenly bodies with a sextant, another
nice piece of human invention. He then
compares the time found by observa
tion, corrected to mean time, with- that
of the mean time shown by his chrono
meter, and he then knows his difference
in time from Greenwich or Paris, de
pending upon which time his chrono
meter is set for. He knows that for
every hour's difference there is IS de
grees of longitude difference, and in this
way he computes bis longitude.
A most interesting case of miscalcula
tion has happened In the case of the
French ship "Alice," which was lost this
week at ocean i-arK, wasi. unrono
metera have to be rated by those ex
pert in that work; that Is, their rate of
losing and gaining time has to be found
for man cannot construct a chronometer
absolutely true. Some of these experts
are not experts, and a captain is sent
to sea with an erroneous rate and he
may be wrecked through no fault of his
own: or a chronometer ' may become
"eranKy," as-win-nappen w-un tne seat
of folks, and there is no way which is
generally used by navigators to know
when this happens, and, again, the ship
may be lost with all 'aboard through no
one's fault in particular. In looking the
case -of the "Alice" over we are told
that by calculation the ship was 60 miles
oft shore, In this latitude , this would
make the chronometer 6 minutes 38.8
seconds slow (latitude 45.5 degrees). The
ship was out 182 days, which would
show a loss of 1.71 seconds per day not
accounted for by the rate of the clock.
This small " fraction of time neglected
caused the wreckage of a magnificent
ship Just on the point of entering port
after sailing 16,000 miles during 192
days. The valuable cargo of cement
from Europe was lost and the lives of
24 men placed in jeopardy.
For this reason it Is suggested to
navigators that they have their chrono
meters rated at the United States branch
hvdroarraohlc office In the custom
house, as Uncle Sam has been trying
to have them do for several years, but
they seem careless of making use of
his raclllties. Mating is rree or cnarge;
We only ask for information in return
which every captain can give. Time Is
received by telegraph every day and
chronometers are correctly rated, and no
one will be sent to sea witn a Known
chance of error, as they are many times
by private raters.

Why Is Fat
Is It because one Is born with the ten
dency? ' Or 4 11 ono of "life strtuls. or
Is it due to jitst plain, hearty appetite?
The doctors, say not any one of these
phrases the question correctly. They say
fat IS because the fat person's digestive
organs are defective,.. Such organs it
seems, don't change tbe fatty goods
eaten by stout .persons Into heat and
energy, as they should. ! Instead the
food fats pass on into tne system nn-conaumed.-
Hence fat layers accumulate
under the skin In quiet spots, such as
the chin, abdomen, shoulder blades, etc.
Let that digestive defect be corrected
and the formerly fat person goes back
to his or her original shape. You can
prov$ this on you i self. Seventy-five
