Yacht Races Eipoctcd to Ite-Cemcnt
American and Spanish Frlcnrisliii
Races This Year Will Be Held In
Spanish Waters.
Madrid, July 28 The first race of
the snoderklasse yachts for the tro
phy presented to the SpanlBh federa
tion of yacht clubs by F. Lewis Clark,
the American yachtsman, will be held
tomorrow at San Sebastian. King Al
fonso has had a boat especially built
for the contest and bel tve that he
has a good chance of winning ih
trophy.
When the American yachtsmen that
had raced at Kiel last y :ar visited
Spanish waters with their boats and
San Sebastian, Bilbao and Santande
In a series of sonderklasse comcetl-
tlons, H was not only a very sports
manlike act, but it more firmly ce
mented the new frlsnclshlp existing
between the new countries.
Among the competitors, both at
Kiol and San Sebastian, wan vice.
Commodore F. Lewis Clark. Eastern
Yacht club, of Marblehead, who felt
tnat the American yachtsmen were
called upon to show In some tangible
way their appreciation of the courte
sies and kindness received at the
time from their Spanish yachting associates.
Finally Commodore Clark decided
that the presentation of a racing
trophy to the Spanish federation of
yacht clubs would be appropriate, and
acting upon that decision at once
ordered from a firm In Cowes a
superb gold cup. which has been
given to the federation, not onlv ho
cause of the courtesies received, but
"as an Incentive to the noble sport
oi yo.cnung and to the building up
or yacnts in Spain."
The memorandum of trlft aecom
panying the cud stlDUlates that h
federation shall arrange -for annual
regattas for the trophy, consisting of
not less than three and not more than
five races, to be sailed not oftener
than once each calendar year.
It is open to sailing yachts of di
mensions to be fixed by the federa
tion, built in Spain, and owned by
persons who at the time are members
of a yacht club belonging to the fed
eration; to be steered by members of
said clubs, and the crews of which
shall consist wholly of amateurs; and
open also to such other yachts built
In Spain and sailed by SDanlsh ama
teurs as may be permitted by the fed
eration to compete.
Provided, however, that the first
year the said federation may, if it
cnoose, arrange that various races for
the said cup' be sailed in the waters
of San Sebastian, Bilbao and Santan
der, so as to insure equality of oppor
tunity to the members of the various
clubs comprising the federation. But
all of the races sailed jhls first year
shall constitute and be considered as
but one regatta.
The cup shall become the absolute
property of the person who. as own
ers, shall have first won three an
nual regattas.

Recently the Salt Luke News re
ferred to a book published by an
eastern concern on the Pony Express,
containing stories of the overland
mail and famous rides and riders,
says the Pocatello Tribune. A friend
of the News writing from Oxford,
Idaho, expresses appreciation of the
synopsis given of the book, and adds
a few reminiscences, some of which
correct certain statements of the au
thor, which. In the view of our es
teemed correspondents, are not en
tirely in accordance with facts. The
writer says:
"The riders' routes were never to
exceed 70 miles. Each rider usually
rode from 40 to 50 miles. I carried
the first pony express myself, from
Ruby Valley coming east, to Engan
canyon, about April 7, I860.
"I held that ride until the fojlovlng
July, once a week each way, then
carried the express until July, 1861.

Egan carried the first pony express
from the west to Salt Lake City, and

was the superintendent of the division
west from Salt Lake City to Sacra
mento, Cal.

in the employ of the Pony Express
company, as stated. He was at one
time division agent on the old Geo.

George Thatcher never rode west of
Salt Lake City, In fact he only rode
a very short time from Salt Lake
City east to 'Hank's' station. When
the Pony Express first started from
April to July, 1860, we only male one
trip per week each way, after that
until the telegraph line was estab
lished, the number of ciders were
doubled and we made two trips a
week each way.
"The riders from Salt Lake, going
east after semi-weekly service was
put on. were Henry Worley and Tom

(W. F. Fisher, myself).
"Most of the old riders have pass

now living. I made one of the long

Nez Perce, Idaho, July 28. The
grain harvest begun Friday, when A,
O. Johnson, four miles east of Kez
Perce, Btarted his binder In the finest
field of winter barley he has ever
grown. It Is estimated that the crop
will yield 80 bushels an acre. Sev
eral machines will be started Mon
day and by August the harvest will
be in full swing. The fall grain is
ripening rapidly, but as the weather
has been exceptionally favorable,
with no extreme heat, the crop will
ripen In fine condition, and there Is
no doubt that the yield will equal and
perhaps surpass last year.
The grain will be cut with binders
this year, as the headers are passing
out as the country Improves and the
farmers are using science In farming.
Several combine harvesters will be
used, but the large demand for har
vesters shows that the ranchers be
lieve that this method of harvesting
is really more economical, while the
grain reaches market In better condi
tion. When the grain Is cut with a
binder and shocked, where It remains
for several weeks, the air cures the
grain, and no danger from souring

Fortune For Forgers.
The last person to suffer death for
forgery In London was a Thomas May-
nard, who was executed on Dec. 31
1829. It was not, however, until 1832
that the death penalty for the crime
was replaced by transportation, though
even then an exception was made In
the case of forging or altering
will. This exception was not removed
from the statute book until 1837. In
the days of good Queen Bess a forger
of deeds was very severely dealt with.
He had to stand In the pilhry; his ears
were cut off, his nose slit, and be was
branded with hot Irons. If he survived
these ordeals be was doomed to im
prlsonment for the rest of bis days,
and everything he possessed In the
World was forfeited to the crown.
Surely death would have been far
more merciful.
Waifs Who B.came Famous.
