YACHTS GO TO SCRAP HEAP
Columbia, Twice Defender of Amer
ica's Cup, Goes to Junk Pile
New York, dan. 7. —The famous
Columbia, the yacht that had the -dis
tinction of holding the America's Cup
against two sncvetwive challengers.
Shamrock I. and 11., has followed hsr
successor, Reliance, to the junk heap.
With her >;oes a mu - h less fnnious and
successful yacht, the would-be Uefen ier
Defiance, buih last \ear to com}>ete
with Yanitie and R-c-solute for the hon
or of meeting Shamrock IV., and usual
ly known as the »'Tri-City'' va'ht, be
cause the svdnicate of her owners mus
tered citizens of three cities among
its members.
Columbia was built in IS9S by a
syndicate headed by the late ,1. Pier
;ont Morgan, who later became her sole
owner, tn 1899 she met and defeated
decisively the tirst Shamrock. Two
years later, when Shamrock 11. ap
peared, she was brought out as a trial
horse for the new Constitution, but
showi 1 so much speed that she again
won the honor of defending the cup,
and, piloted by the late Charley Barr,
responded with another victory in two
out of three ra.-es.
Since 1903, when she again acted as
trial horse for Reliance, Columbia has
beeu lying on the ways at City Island
without once being in the water. How
ever, the late Mr. Morgan's affections
for her was so great that it is certain
she would never have been sold to be
broken up in his lifetime.

which has proved the laughing triumph
of this season in New York City, where j
for over eight months past it has been j

Constructed solely for laughing pur

presented by Harry Pern and company.
The act calls in au attractive stage -
setting, representing the exterior ot' the J.
soldiers' "hinie" at Johnsville, Tenn. j
Harry Peru, who is one of the most |
popular artists of the blaek cork vur I
riety, handles the comedy role, while I i
pathos and excellent dramatic ability
is capably enacted by it cast of four <
other players. Harry Pern hands out nil;
kinds of laughs as the keeper of a com
bination fruit stunld, barber shop, etc.,
just outside the "home." The dramatic,
part of the act deals with the exposure'
of graft at such an institution. Each;
player in the company is cap-able and i
strongly cast, making the novelty j'
doubly attractive. Another pleasing
turn of the bill is that of Claudius and:
Scarlet, the banjo players. The young J
man and woman appear in attractive j
modern dress and plav some of the j
latest songs in lively fashion. Then j
the stage darkens, the artists stajt to J
play sonie of the old favorite songs of j
fifty years age and as they play them, j
the words of the songs are thrown on]
the picture curtain. When the artists j
strike up old favorites like "When You »
anil I Were Young Maggie," "Grand
father's Clock" and others as well'
known, the audience starts to sing them
until it seems as 'though, the audience'
has 'turned into one big chorus. Thej
act is certainly pleasing and its a elev-l
er novelty. Claudius and Scarlet pre
sent one of the line Keith hits support

Allxany, Jan. 7.—Governor Whitman

ing Charles Katz, who has been in
Wing Sing since October, 1913, serving
a sentence of three to seven years for
gruud larceny in the first degree. Kat/

SIIO,OOO face value of Ohio and Davis
Daly mining stocks belonging to P.
Augustus llein/.e and deposited by him
hs collateral for a $50,000 loan with
the Windsor Trust Company,
j It appeared at the trial that Katz
and his associates raised money to
make the loan, used the trust com
pany as a cover for it, and 1 sold out
the collateral in the curb market at a
profit to themselves of $4 8,000. The
affair took place in August, 190!).
Kat/. was convicted in May, 1910. Ap
peals put off his imprisonment until
October, 1913. His associates escaped
i by various means.
A memorandum yesterday explain
ing the pardon shows that last July
| District Attorney Whitman asked Gov
ernor Glynn to grant it, on the ground
that Kat/. had been made the solo vie
i tim and had been punished enough.
Justice Marcus, who sentenced Katz,
joined in the July appeal for clemency.

! The Insidious Influence of "Pork"
There are some memlbers of Congress
' who refuse to have anything to do with
! river ami harbor "pork" but who aro
! a little weak ou pensions. There are
■ others who are strict with their con-
I stituents about pensions but who will
' fight long and hard to a useless
j army post alive in their district. Thor >
j are very few memlbers of Congress who
| do not deal in "pork" in one way or
' another, in ot'her words who do not get
j money out of the National Treasury for
| expenditure iu their own districts con
trary to the public good. With every
! member of Congress after some piece
of pork or otiher, it is only natural
that they should combine and help one
another so that every one shall be cer
tain to get something. It is in this way
that a large proportion of the public
money is divided and frittered away.—
