CHALLENGERS FAR
Situation Most Acuto in History
J of America's Yachting
' Races
BOTH SET FOR RUBBER
Hy LAWHI5NCR PERKY
Illjclilandft, N. .1.. July 2 J. Wind
holding from the noiitlnvpat nt the rntp
of twenty-five mllcH an hour, en nurd
tlie roRHttn committee of the New York
lneht Club to postpone until Monday
the fifth and deriding rnre for the
America's Cup, which wni to have been
snlled today.
Wllllnm P. Iturton, nldpper of Sham
rock IV, nnd his nH.ilxtnnt, had been
whistling for n wind uluce the Rerlex
began nnd todny they got what they
have been wishing for in good measure,
proBsrd down nml running over.
The jnclitn hnd put out to the start
ing line michr shortened sail and after
darting nbout the ocean for an hour or
so while the (ommittce In cbarge of the
race derided what to do they were event
ually told to sail back to the Hook and
wait until Monday.
While the conditions were boisterous
there lmvc been America's Cup races
galled under conditions as heavy as
this, notably the last race of the Co-lumbla-Ktiumrock
scries nnd the I'uri-tnu-Gencsta
race with topmasts hoisted.
Evidently it was decided that the im
portance of the struggle set for today
warranted the running of no risk of
breakage aboard either of the lacrrs.
Never In nil the history of the Ameri
ca's Cup has a situation been nenrly
so acute. Uncle Snm and John Hull,
ancient maritime rivals, are surely at
grips. .Shamrock tried hard jesterday
to win tho race and make certain that
tho cup. would go to England's shores,
but n windward leg served to upset the
hopes of the chnllcuger, and for the
next race faclnir a lone thresh to weather
of fifteen miles, the Shamrock crowd Is
not nearly so cheerful or hopeful as
they were yesterday looming when the
challenger had it two to one nnd a
triangular course lying ahead.
Praises Kcsoluto
"Resolute." Bald Sir Thomas this
morning, "has made a gallant showing,
but 1 am not downhearted. What I
should like to see. though, would be
some heavy breezes which would give
both jachts au adequate test under
wholesome conditions. I don't think
yet that the Shamrock has had a chaiic:
to show what she can do."
William P. llurton was about deck
at an early hour superintending the
hoisting of the sails. He had nothing
to say, neither hnd any member of the
challenger's aftcrgunrd. Skipper Ad
ams and his conferees of the lleolute.
smiled as they remnrked that they had
Nothing at all to say, as, indeed, what
could they say?
Their charge in the last few days has
been speaking for herself and there was
no tendency to question Its cloquency.
May Hlhernato
If Resolute wins Monday's race she
will take tow in the evening and go up
to City Island, there to have the remain
ing months of the year alone in her
glory, while the challenger probably will
eventually go to the lrio basin to re
main under cover until, such time as
she may serve as a trial uorhc for some
other challenger.
Whichever wins this great rubber
event, the most momentous ncht race
ever sailed, the losing boat will not be
without honor, for seldom have two
rival windjammers been so closely
matched. In one rare they finished the
thirty miles in nreclselv the same time.
while in other races they have sailed
for miles virtually as one yacht. That
interest In the fifth and final event of
the series had aroused the public was
evidenced by the increased number of
excursion craft whlrh put forth from
ew iork to follow the racers today.
In addition to the old stnndbvs such as
the Plymouth. Highlander. Atlantic and
other craft that have been following the
racers throughout the series, there were
many craft which came out the first day
besides others that had not come down
to the Hook before.
There is not the slightest doubt that
in light airs Reolutc is n superior
boat of the two on every point of sail
ing but reaching. Here she must yield
superiority to the challenger. Hut
otherwise, in pointing nnd in running
free. Resolute is the master. What
would bo shown in winds innging from
fifteen to twentv odd knots Is another
story, or rather might prove to be Died
in the wool enthusiasts who nre quite
willing to have Resolute sail in the port
of airs that seem best suited to hor will
be content Monday to see conditions
such as have obtained to date, but
broadminded sporting men would wel
come able winds that would test the two
boats to the limit.

Dictators Seen
Corttlnned from Taie One
negotiatlonn with Moscow with the ob
ject of joining the Red nrmy in its cam
paign against the Poles. General
Wrnngel has been represented recently
as fighting and defeating the HoWirvlsts
In southern Russia, but I am told that
his operations are In realltj directed
solely ngalnst the Ukrnnlan robber
bands that Infest this region.
It is clear that General Wrangel, who
is a typical Russian autocrat of the
old school, is not actuated by love ol
bolshevism or the desire to serve I.en
Inc's Interests. Ills agreement with
the Red dictators Is rooted In the con
viction that the Red army under Urus
siloff is rapidly developing Into an In
strument with which it will be possible
to overthrow them. There can be no
doubt that If Wrangel Joins the Red
army with all his officers and men,
which members of his stnff assure me
he is about to do. the nntl-HoIshevIst
element in its ranks will be greatly re-
Iniorceil.
similar nlan of action has been

grouped around General Gurko in Her-
liti. Prominent members of this group,
among them General Radzlanko, have
left the German capital and gone to East
Prussln, where they are secretly re
cruiting an army among Russian war
prisoners and disbanded elements of the
German Reichswchr with which to at
tack the hard-pressed Poles in the rear
nnd consummntc the downfall of
Poland. General Gurko nnd his circle
are notorious for their pro-Germanism,
nnd their nlans nre conscntlentl.v di
rected more immediately ngalnst Poland
than General Wrangel's, but their ulti
mate aim is identical, namely, to pre
cipitate the transformation of the Red
nrmy Into a counter-revolutionary force
by co-operating with it against Russia's
foreign enemies, and to exploit reawak
ened Russian nationalism to overthrow
the Soviet government.
Czarlsts to Overthrow Lenlne
The Russian czarlsts are trying to
"hoist Lrnlue with his own petard,"
nnd It looks as If they were golug to
(uceeed.
I also learn from an absolutely trust
worthy source that thousands of officers
belonging to Denikln's dispersed army,
who found a place of refuge in Scrbiu,
are leaving to enlist in the Red army
ostensibly to "fight ngnlnst the Poles,"
in reality to place themselves ni jirus
rlloff's disposal for the coup d'etat
which they consider Imminent.
I.eninc's appeal to all Russian pa
triots to assist him in repelling the
Polish Invasion has met with au en
thusiastic response, but he may find H
difficult to get rid of the warriors he
rnlled to his nid nnd who hope to rid
Ru-sin of him In the end.

The Stage and the Underworld
Among Themes And Love,

Frank Tj. Packard has become some
thing of a specialist In depletion of the
Joys and sorrows, the intrigues ana
romances, the crimes and the good deeds
of the underworld. In "The Miracle
Mnn," known to hundreds of thousands
through the widening of the aiidjcnco
ior im siory oi evil aim mm. r -through
the screen niter It had attained
popularity on the printed page as a
novel and on the stage as nn npneallng
drama, Mr. Packard showed a knowl
edge of the seamy side of New lork
lite semblable to that of Kugene Sue
in his, "Mysteries" nnd "Miseries" of
Paris. In his newest story, The
White Moll," Mr. Packard gives fresh
testimony of the acute nnd nccurate
knowledge nnd also of his capacity for
developing n gripping plot. Both in the
lingo or flash patter of the people of
the underworld and In their psychology
Mr. Packard Is an adept, as lie proves
anew In this story of Rhoda Gray, who
Is' respected if not feared by cery
crook, gunman and harridan on the
Kast Side. Her adventures and mis
adventures, her escapades and escapes
ns n worker for law nnd order against
Invlslblo nnd potent forces will hold

'totus Salad" Is n composite of the
uncharted romantic principalities ot
Anthony Hope nnd George Rarr Jlc
Cutcheon and the mapless PbIlc.; un"
lr tlin nnOinrn rrnss of O. Henry
and Richard Harding Davis. The au
thor, Mildred Cram, has written a dook
that is markedly unfeminlne In Its swing
of event nnd sweep of ndventurous ex
ploits. But there Is a womanly touch
to It, too, in the romance. She has
written a book that will be relished by
the young of both sexes and many
an oldster, too, Irrespective of gender,
Magclla, well-named "Lotus Land, Is
the scene of dolec far nlente that is en
livened by the advent of Slgnor'Pug,
the "peppy" young American, whose
lifelines cross those of a flre-entlng
native patriot, an Irish drenmcr, n
supcrbandlt nnd others, Including, of
course, ','the girl." Cunning Intrigue
and sensational incidents lead on en
thralllngly to the final triumph.
Anna Alice Chnpln has written a
wise nnd sophistical little story In
"Jane." It has many touches of dain
tiness nbout it and yet It Is not lack
ing in substantial qualities of under
standing of human nature, with Its
faults and failures and its dominating
virtues, too. The heroine is a naive
yet knowing little Irish girl, full of
native charm and wit Her environ
ment, with n cattish sister, a. slovenly
mother nnd n hateful stepfather, is suf
ficient to drive her from home. Her
escape Is made into n theatrical troupe
of a cheap sort. How she rises, through
sheer courage, Innocence and will to

temptations along her route, is incor

THE GREAT WORK OF
J. WIBBUR CHAPMAN
Mr. Ottman's Biography of the
Evangelist Is a Booh That
Will Find Many Readers
' Ford 0, Ottman, long associated
with the late Ttev. Dr. J. Wilbur Chap
mnn, has written n biography of the
distinguished evangelist which will be
read with Irltcrcst by those who knew
him as well as by students of the
evangelistic movement In tlio Protestant
churches.
The book will be particularly in
teresting to Presbyterians in this city,
for Dr. Chapman was pastor of the
Rfthany Presbyterian Church here
twice, the first time from 1880 to 1802
nnd the second time from 1800 to 1002.
Although it is eighteen years since he
left) Philadelphia, he is remembered by
nil who came in contact with him.
Mr. Ottman traces Dr. Chapman's
ancestry back to tho sixteenth century
in England in order to show the kind
of stock from which he sprang. He tells
the story of his youth nnd of his edu
cation In a most sympathetic manner.
He indicates thnt in the young man's
early preaching he displayed the spirit
which later developed and guided
hhn in his great religious campaigns in
different parts of the world. He spent
several years in small towns before he'
became pastor of a Reformed church
in Albany, N. T. This gave him time to
mature and to get experience in dealing
with people. It prepared him for his

SANE DISCUSSION
OF PESSIMISM
Professor Lacy, of Central
High School, Writes Human,
Philosophical Booh
Benjamin f! Lacy, professor of phys
ics in the Central HJgh School, has
written n brief treatise on "Pessimism"
which will be found valuable to nny one
who realizes that optimists arc some
thing more than merely happy folks arid
pessimists are more than habitual
''Bronchcs" and who wants to know
what they really arc. . , .
The little book is written In a style
that is scholarly and yet not labored,
nor ponderous, nor dull. Those who
have been bored half to death by pro
fessors need not be afraid to read Doctor
Laey's book. It will not bore them the
other half. What Doctor Lacy should
do and there Is the slightest intima
tion that he may do something of the
sort is to make this work tho. Intro
duction to a comprehensive study ol
optimism, meliorism and pessimism.
Before ho has gone very far the
author takes occasion to say that pure
pessimism in the Western civilization Is
impossible because of Its conflict with
religion and the established order of
feeling and thinking. He does not say
It so plainly, but It Is-clear enough to
anv ono of fair intelligence that that
Is. what he thinks. He then goes on to
treat pessimism about as sympathetica!
lv and fairly nnd honestly as possible In
the civilization in which he has hap
pened to be cast.
The book seems to be bent on helping
Us reader to know nnd understand pes
simism nnd not on converting him to it
or from It. It is refreshing to find some
one writing for the purpose of inform
Inc. Most people write to get the reader
on their "side."
Doctor Laey's "Pessimism" win nor.
make you n pessimist. It will not niake
you nn optimist. It will not make you
a mcllorlst. It will help you to know
which of the three you nre If you aro
nny and what kind of one you are.
