HAS NO INTRINSIC VALUE
Yet Millions of Dollars Have Been
Spent in Endeavor to Capture
America's Cup.
For a thing of comparatively little
intrinsic value, the America's Cup,
for which the contest between the
yachts, "Beliance" and "Shamrock
III" Is now on, appears to be attract
ing the attention of much of the civil
ized world. It is described as an old
tarnished flagon of silver, not un.
mixed with pewter, and is neither
useful, or, if experts are to be believed,,
ornajnental. In the first place it has
no bottom, being a hollow cylinder,
incapable of holding liquid. Seamen
consider this a disqualifying feature,
and artists say so far as beauty is
concerned it has none. But while all
this may be true, there never was an
old metal pot in the world's history
that has excited such eager competl.
tion or occasioned the expenditure of
so many millions since 1831,' as has
this tarnished flagonthe prize of the
yacht, "America." Formerly the
yachtsmen of Boston and New York
bore all the expense of defending
America's pup, This year the money
ed interest of the whole oountry, in
eluding bankers, railway magnates,
Standard Oil, steel trust and other
magnates entered into powerful com
bination to prevent Sir Thomas from
"lifting" the antiquated trophy.
If Sir Thomas Lipton does not "lift"
the cup, and it would seem that he is
about to score another failure to
capture the coveted trophy, he will
have the satisfaction of knowing that
he has spent more money, worked
harder and behaved better thn any
body who has had designs against
the much desired prize. Besides, be
gets a bit of advertising out of it all
for his business. Of all the yacht
men who have challenged for
America's cup, Sir Thomas is easily
the most popular with every one. His
visitors' book on the "Erin" Is filled
with the names of illustrious and dls
tinguished men and women who have
enjoyed bis hospitality, including
King Edward of England.
