AND TEA
Man, supplied with reasoning and dis
cerning powers, may improve his con
dition by the exercise of these faculties.
This can be applied with very good
effect in the purchase of Coffees and
Teas. A good cup of Coffee depends
not only on the making but the brand
of Coffee, the grade, the roasting and
preparation are very important factors.
We feel-confident that we can meet all
those requirements. A delicious cup
of Coffee is a certainty if you use

Withdrawal of Valkyrie Because of
Interference.
THE CUP WILL REMAIN HERE !
Tho Britisher Crossed tlia Line, However,
as a Matter of Formality, But Immedi
ately Withdrew May Race Off New
port or Marblehead,
New Yokk, Sept. 13. -Tho International
scries between Defender and Vnlkyrlo for
tho America's cup is ended. On tho wholo
It has been mi extraordinary scries, and
whllo tho result Is satisfactory to tho
American people, two, at least, of tho
contests that wont to nuiko up tho match
were not.
Defender won iu a clean race on Satur
day, on Tuesday last she crossed tho lino
behind tho Kngllsh boat, but was awarded
tho race on a foul, and yesterday she bad a
walkover. Yesterday's occurrence wns all
the moro unfortunate, not only becauso a
great crowd had gathered to witness tho
struggle, but becauso tho weather condi
tions wero such as to lead many to sup
poso that of all days Valkyrlo would bo In
her elemont.
Lord Dunravou had said Wednesday
night, nnd ho said it most emphatically,
that ho would withdraw his boat on the
morrow if an absolutely clear conrso was
not provided. Ho claimed that during tho
previous raco his boat had been greatly in
terfered with, nnd as everything depended
upon tho outcome of tho third of tho series
ho adhered to that decision so closely that
Valkyrlo merely crossed tho starting lino
and then retired from tho contest. Do
fender was well in advance when tho hand
icap gun was flred, continued on her jour
ney, and went over tho courso well within
tho time limit.
By her tbrco straight victories, Defender
retains tho historic cup for America.
Tho raco scheduled for yesterday prom
ised to bo a moro oxciting ono than cither
of tho two preceding, for It was to bo ex
pected that every effort would bo made by
Dunravcn, after Tuesday's disappoint
ment, to score n victory with tho boat bo
had brought so far.
Wednesday Valkyrlo bad been timed
up to tho highest pitch in anticipation ot
yesterday's contest. Soveral alterations
had been made, and thoso upon whom her
sailing qualities depond most largely wero
prepared to expend oyory ounco of muscle
and skill toliringherover tho lino a victor
Lord Dunraven had expressed himself as
apparently satislled with tho decision
rendered by tho cup committeo on the
fouling of Defender by his boat, and the
matter bad seemingly been settled so
amicably that it was n question iu tho
minds of tho general public If Tuesday's
raco would not bo resulted.
The preparatory gun was not flred until
about twenty minutes after tho fixed time.
In tho mean whllo a gun wasilred from the
committeo boat and u sigual font up de
noting that a delay would tako place.
Then tho announcement was mado from
tho patrol boat that Lord Dunraven had
refused to ra- unless a clear courso was
guaranteed by tho committeo. So far as
tho committee was concerned It scorned
impossible to do moro toseouro open water
than it had already dono, for when tho
preparatory gnu was flred, tho nearest
boat to the racers was fully half a mile
away, and tho great majority of tho ex
cursion steamors and other craft were
much further off in tho distance
Tho starting guu went at tho appointed
tlmo, and almost at tho samo Instant De
fender crossed tho line, Valkyrio's com
mandor had so maneuvered her that she
was still a long way off, and just a mo
ment before tho handicap gun was fired
eho, too, crossed tho lino. It was evident
to thoso who had been watching tho Kn
gllsh boat that sho had no intention of
racing, and so it proved, for no soouor wns
tho ljno croiscd than sho hauled to ou tho
starboard task, Instead of following her
rival out, and passed under tho steru of
tho lightship.
A scoro or moro of steamers started at
onco for Valkyrlo, whllo half a hundred
steamed In tho direction Defender had
takeu. Tho American boat was making
good headway with her spinnaker sot, and
after starting at 11:20:31 rounded tho first
markat l:o:58, and finished at -1:01:80. In
tho light breeze this was a particularly
good porformanco, and tho beat to wind
ward was much faster than had boon an
ticipated, for during ono part of that jour
ney tho very light brcezo scorned to dlo out
almost entirely. But ovou in that De
fender mado good headway, and whon sho
crossed tho homo lino, tho winner of tho
raco, tho winner of tho series, Defondcr,
in fact as well as namo, sho was greeted
with a roar of whistles, thrlco repeatod,
and tho belching of cannon and tho ohcors
of thousands for tho gallant victories sho
hud won.
It Is understood that valuablo trophlos
muy bo ottered for contest between tho
yachts Dofendor and Valkyrlo off Newport
or Marblehead.
Tho Atlantic Yacht club contemplates
nn attempt to arrange a raco, or a sorlos,
between Valkyrlo and Defendor for a spe
cial cup to cost about $2,000. Dunravon
will bo allowed to arrange dotails, If tho
plan materializes, to chooso tho wators be
tween Sandy Hook and JIarblehead, and
tho rtato within tho limit of Oct. 1; to ar
rango that tho public be kept In ignorancu
of tho dates, and to select rules of cithor
tho Now York, Atlantic or Larchmont
clubs, tho threo leading clubs of tho coun
try, to govuru tho raco.
LOUD UDNliAVKN'S OIJJ12CTIONS.
The UxceulTe Crowding of ISxourtlou
Steamers Causes Illm to Quit.
London, Sept. 13. Houter's News
Agency sent a roquost by cable to tho Earl
of Dunravon for a statement of tho voa
Bons for his action In withdrawing from
tho third raco for tho America's cup. Tin
following reply 1ms boun received from
Now York:
"Owing to tho oscesslvo crowding by
steamors at tho first two races, especially
at tho sturt off and tho last ton miles ol
tho second raco, I uottllod tho cup commit
too dn tho 10th Inst., requesting that the
lottor bo not opened until after a decision
had been rendered with regard to tho foul
at tho start of tho second raco, that owing
to tho danger of a serious accident by col
lision with tho excursion steamers, and
owing to tho absoluto absurdity of carry
ing on races under such conditions, 1
should dccllno to start unless sumo an
raugemeut wero mado to raco In clear
water.
"I roquosted a postponement ot yester
day's race, witli a view of arriving at such
an arrangement. The committeo found 11
impossible to concede tills. I then notified
them that I should bo at Sandy Hook light
ship yesterday for tho purpose of giving
Defouder a start."

Disturbance in a Family Leads to
Sensational Reports.
A REYOLYER HARMLESSLY USED !
Thomas Eisenhower, an Ex-Stable Boss,
Has Some Expensive Fun With His
Family and Neighbors and Makes
Settlement Before a Justice.
Tho report that a shooting all'ray had
taken plaee nt the Turkey Run colliery
proves to have been a family squabble with
out tho shedding of any blood. Tho chief
character iu the case is Theodore Eisenhower
who, until recently, was stable boss at the
colliery and lived iu one of the houses lo
cated near the plaee. Another houso in that
locality is occupied by a family named
Hopkins. Tho houses are close to each other
and the families were very neighborly. Of
late Eisenhower lias been partaking of the
flowing bowl to such an extent that it has
scperated him from his funiilymid mado him
desperate.
Tho jars iu tho family have been very
numerous in tho recent past and many law
suits resulted. Finally Eisenhower concluded
to.Ieavo town und went to Sunbury. He re
turned a few days ago and on Wednesday
found that his wife, who is reputed to bo a
very industrious and deserving woman, was
moving her family from the houso at tho
colliery to ono in town, in order to leavo the
dwelling to be occupied by Eisenhower's
brother, Wash., who recently came from
Reading and succeeded to tho position of
stable boss at Turkey Run collier'. Tlio
prodigal didn't like the turn affairs had taken
and fought witli his wife and brother. The
former took refuge in tho Hopkins' house
hold. Eisenhower secured a dress, silk waist
and u hut he had bought fur his wife and
tore them into fragments. The pieces he
carried up on tho hill above the houso
und made a bon lire with them. As the last
fragment was consumed ho returned to the
house und then went to the Hopkins house
hold and demanded that his wife be led fur
ward for slaughter. Of course, the command
was iu no wise complied with and then Eisen
hower tried to tako satisfaction out of the
Hopkins family. Ho was charged witli
recklessly displaying a revolver at one stage
of the game and threatening to send his wife
and all who befriended her to a place where
bloomers are not known. Yesterday Eisen
hower was arranged before Justice Shoe
maker. He agreed to pay all costs on condi
tion that she would withdraw her charges
against him and a separation was mutually
arranged utter tho wife was paid fur the de
stroyed wardrobe. This is a full account of
the "shooting" with u complete list of the
victims who were not shot.

SETLEY DID IT.
The Oscillating Hull Player Kmls the Sli:i
nioklu Season.
William Setley, tho base ball player who
spends most of his winters in Shenandoah
and Giiardville, and during the base ball
season makes himself famous by jumping
from one pait of tho country to another, re
gardless of the legal ellect of contracts, ar
rived at Sliamokin the other day and within
twenty-four hours broke up the Sliamokin
Association l!a-.e Rail Club, or, rather, it was
on account of hisurrival that the club was
disbanded.
The cluli signed Setley as soon as lie struck
tho town and some of the players objected to
playing witli him for various reasons. Setley
asked each ono if ho had ever "dono them
dirt" and they acknowledged that lie had
not. On Tuesday morning somo of the
players said that they would not play with
Setley. Just before the parade in the after
noon Willie and ono of the players exchanged
bitter words which would have led to blows
if one of the manager had not stepped be
tween them and remarked that they were
paid for ball playing and not "scrapping."
Setley and Heckman headed the band and
the rest of tho players followed. Later on at
Maysville Heckman refused to play alleging
that tho malcontents were "dead against" him
and Setley. Heckman went into tho grand
stand and as there were only eight men re
maining 'without Setley tho malcontents
finally concluded to allow Setley to play and
during the game he knocked a home run and
put up a fielding game par excellence.
Tuesday night the managers of the club
went to bat und knocked out a pronuncia
mento to the effect that inasmuch as the
spirit of insubordination laid entered the
club, making it necessary to "fire" about
four of the members, and as the season was
too Into to hire a lot of new men, it was
timo to disband. When tho players heard
this they felt sick, as about three weeks' play
had been nipped in tho bud. Setley, Heck
man and a few otliors are now playing a few
games on tho co-operative plan.
