A very importaiit meeting of the yacht owning members of the Southern Yacht Club waa held Isst night at the St. Charles HotaL and at thia meeting the classification of boat for next season waa definitely decided upon.

When the club held Its annual seaalon. last April, it waa agreed that the boat owners should be given the authority Jh fall of th year to arrange of yachta in the season of 1000. The object of holding the meeting so fr In advance of tne openlna of next year a season waa to enable yachtameu to learn the classifications so that they could build the new boats accordingly. There will be half a doxen new crafts put In commission wxt year, and the eporuiaen who Intend to build thtse boats wished to know what water-line length to give the crafts. Mr.

Sam Gautier caled the meeting to order, but resigned the chair to Commodore Emil O'Brien, chairman of the regatta committee. There were present: Csptaln Anderson, W. A. Brucet. L.

S. Sampsell John Rawlins, M. C. Joyner. C.

W. Smith, Charles Ruger. James Sinuott. A. M.

Cook, Walter Douuell, Wlll-Wni Burns, Jack Campbell. Pat Kellcy. Joe Behtvns. George Lyons, Mark Walker and S. W.

Clark Jr. The first qnestlon brought before the boat owners a the clsssifylug of yachts. It waa agreed that all schooners aad yawl-rigged crafts should sail In the ooe class. There will be four classes of cabin sloops, and these veasels hsve been arranged much differently than In past seasons. Cpon motion of Mr.

O'Donnell, representing the Florence, the first class of cabin sloops was made for vessela 33 feet and over on the water-line. The second class will be over 25 and under 33 feet; the third class under 26 feet and over 21 feet, and the fourth class will be under 21 feet. This will put the Florence In the class wltb the Nepenthe, Montauk and Annie of Mobile. These three big vessels are all about 40 feet on the water line and draw much more water than a vessel of the Sualt B. siae.

Mr. O'DonueU, In presenting the motion, held that his vessel drew so much water that, while she only allowed the Susie B. about 6 minutes, she was handicapped In the ahallow racing grounds. This really made the allowance- cotue to about 15 minutes on the 15 uiflex. for the vessel dragged over a portion of the course.

It was bis great desire, and the desire of his father, to secure a race with the Nepenthe, Montauk and Annie and he thought that, by creating this class for big crafts only, the object may be accomplished. The question as to what shall constitute a cabin wss next taken up. There has been considerable discussion on this subject In past seasons, and the regatta committee was anxious to have the boat owners decide the matter for themselves. Mr. Behrens brought the matter up by making a motion that a cabin is a permanent structure which covers a part or the entire cockpit.

A cabin sloop shall be a vessel which has a permanent cabin and carries fixed ballast under the flooring of the vessel, and does not carry shifting ballast In addition. Thts motion was carried. Messrs. Brunet and Anderson objected to the cabin portion, holding that a cabin should be built up from the deck, and should not be made of canvas. Mr.

Gantler followed the settlement of this question with 4 motion wnlch changes a very important rule In racing. Years sgo It was the rule of the club to allow cabin sloops odo man for every three feet of water line. This rnle was changed to one msn for every Ave feet of water line. The crews of the big crafts were cut down to such an extent that they raced under full sail, in a blow, under difficulties. The owners of big sloops explained the trouble they have been having since this racing rule baa been in existence, and asked to have the old rule restored.

There were objections upon the ground that small vessels would have the benefit of live ballast, which would not be fair in racing. The motion waa carried, however, and will go Into effect next season. This disposed of the cabin sloops, all the other rules of racing being allowed to stand as they were last year Then the open sloops were taken trp and divided Into three classes. The first class will be for boats over 20 feet water line; the second class will be for boats over IS and under 20 feet, and thc third class for all boats nnder 18 feet water line. There will, in addition, be a separate class for half-raters.

Catboats will be divided into two classes those over 22 feet water Hne and those under 22 feet. There will be a claaa for all motor and steam launches, which will Include the classification of Teasels in the clnb. Mr. Behrens wanted a rule adopted which would give owners of catboats permission to carry an unlimited crew but no shifting dead ballast, bat the other boat owners did not agree with him In the matter. Mr.

Gautier thought that some steps should be taken towards organising a regatta association which would give a -schedule of races during the summer and enable a big fleet to cruise from one racing ground to another and sail races every few days. By having re-gattaa at each of the watering places ths sport wouM be built up, the summer guests entertained, and there would be a season of yachting which would do a world of good for ths great sport. Commodore O'Brien thoroughly agreed with Mr. Gautier. but he did not think such an association oould be ar.

ranged until the Southern Taeht Club opened lta annual regatta to all yachta. An effort will be made, however, to bring about th formation of such body. There will be another meeting ot the boat owners In May. ml the action of last night meeting will be ratified and possibly other changes made. The boat owners, at the annual meeting of the club, will also ask for sn increased appropriation by the governing committee, with which more suitable prlaes can be purchased.

The meeting adjourned after discussing the steps which can be taken to secure larger purses or more expensive prizes. ANOTHER CHALLENGE COMING FOR THE CCP. New York, Nov. 9. A cable message was received In this city to-day saying that Alfred Harmaworth, editor and proprietor of the London Dally Mall, Intended to have a challenger prepared to race here for the America's cup next summer.

Mr. Harms-worth has written a letter to Sir Thomas Llpton to say that he would like to have a chance at the great yachting prixe. and ask. ing about Sir Thomas' Intentions. In the letter he said that nnless the owner of the Shamrock Intended to try again In 1900, he, Mr.

Harmsworth, would like to put In one. Sir Thomas, it is said, would not be prepared for a race next season, owing to the fact that be has offered his steam yacht Erin to the British government to be need as a hospital vessel In the Transvaal war. A member of the New York Yacht Club said be believed the Harmsworth challenge would come by cable In a few days, and that if anything happened to the Harmsworth challenge there were otbers In the back-ground waiting for the situation to develop.

FORTUNES 171 TOYS. Wealth Waiting: for the Man Who Can Invent a Popular Pnasle. The chief penny top now most In demand is something of a mechanical kind, either in the shape of a working model or a puzzle, says F.Lgllsh Illustrated. The old kind of top, with no movement, but which was simply made to looked at. is of no us to-day.

Of the most popular penny toys during the last half century more than one dealer gave me full particulars. About iS62 or so there was a tremendous run on penny watches with Imitation gold chain, and ths manager of a famous firm told me bow curiously thia came about. It was all doe to a woman who stood near the Mansion House. It seems. This hawker covered a piece ot thin board with black velvet, and, cutting out holes or the penny watches, placed th latter In them, with th "gold" cfcatne twisted attractively round.

Than she called oat loudly: "A lovely watch and chain for a penny People began to buy rapidly, and time after time that day she replenished her stock, and sold out again. Other hawkers learned of it, and within three daya thia peony watch had become quite a rage all over England. The toy firms were simply for it by the hawkers. One firm alone sold over SO0O Eross In three months; and the maker, a Frenchman In Paris, had to put down new machinery, and keep his factory going night and day for four months to supply the demand. There ia a fortune now wslticg for th man who can Invent a pusxla that will take th place which the "fifteen puzzle" once had, or the famona "pigs In clover." I was Informed, on the very highest authority, that more than one regular street seller of top could be pointed oat to me who had often made over 20 a week; and that 10 weekly was by no mean unusual for many of them to make daring a good ran of a popular article.

Nov. 9. The Commercial Advertiser prints the following Interview with Senator Thomas C. Piatt to-day: Senator Piatt, having spoken of the result up-state, was interviewed to talk about the result here and its consequences. "What do yon think of the CltUens' Union and labor alliance?" was one of the first questions asked.

"Oh," he answered, "that's water that has passed over the dam." "And what about the dam?" "That's In good condition for next year," was the reply, and he continued: "I am still dazed at the returns from up the state. The country did splendidly. A man from the country writes me this morning: Ood made the country, man made the As to the significance as to the result In general, the senator said: "The splendid Republican victories all along the line In upper New York, Ohio, Iowa, Pennsylvania, Kentucky. South Dakota and elsewhere are a strong indorsement of President McKlnley's administration. They Indorse the war policy.

They repudiate the criticisms made by the-so-called antl-lmperlallsts. They Indicate that President McKlnley will be the choice of the people for a second term." Nebraska Return. Ilncoln, Nov. 0. Complete returns from eighty-seven of the ninety counties of the state give Holcomto, fusion.

KHAKI WORN BY TOMMY ATKINS Uiiiforms Selected for Use In the Campaign Against the Boers. DarlcColored Materials SaltaMe rr Wear In Any Very Warm Climate. Without proper clothes a -man fight to the best advantage, a fact Which the military authorities hare borne carefully In mind as regards the soldiers Intended for service in South.

Africa, says the London Telegraph. The tlght-ntting, costly uniforms in which. Thomas Atk'n appeals so strongly to tne feminine portion of our population axe the outcome of much artistic effort on the part of military tailors, and are admirably adapted to th piping times, of peace, but when the day arrives for1 servtc In Africa or In any other part of the world where excessive beat la likely to enfeeble th men the gay trappings must be laid aside In favor of more suitable material. That Is the reason why our soldiers during the present campaign will wear the dark, fawn-colored "drill" familiar to most people as "khaki." It Is made of cotton thread, warp aud weft, very much after the style of ordinary linen, but Infinitely more durable. The word "khaki" is derived from the Hindoo, and means simply dust or clay colored, but in the war olfice sense "khaki" is elevated from the position of adjective to substantive, and refers exclusively to that drab-colored material which was worn for the first time, probably, by some of the East Indian regiments.

Throughout the Egyptian campaigns it was used by our troops, and wfcea the Guards arrived In London after the last expedition they were clad in the very garments which will shortly be served out to them again for service In bouth Africa. As they detrained at Waterloo station last autumn and marched througn the cheering multitude to Wellington barracks it must be admitted that the mud-colored tunics and breeches failed to appeal to the eyes of the people who had associated the brave fellows with that "than red line" of (glorious memory, but the outfit certainly possesses many advantages from the point or view of practical work. Lancashire, of course, Is the home of the industry, and in order to meet the requirements of the government the factories there have lately been working very hard. There 1s a vast quantity at the prcsiut time at the headquarters of the army clothing establishment in I'im-llco, and the statement that the departure of the troops has been delayed owing to the dliflculty in obtaining the material Is absurd. Some 15,000 meu and women have been emploved recently in manufacturing the clothes, which are packed, and transported by fatigue parties of soldiers to the various destinations.

As regards clothes the wisdom of decentralizing stores has been abundantly proved during the progress of the present scheme of mobilization. Instead of the delay and confusion which used to ensue when the uniforms were dispatched from the London center to a number of points far and near, we now have a well-organized system under which the goods are sent to the vnrlous provincial centers, there to be redistributed. And thus, we are assured that by the time the last reservist presents himself, within the limit fixed by the queen's proclamation, a suit of khaki will be awaiting him, in addition to the rifle and other accoutrements, which are, meantime, stocked In the Tower. The soldiers themselves are anxious to exchange their present uniforms for the campaign outfit, owing to the increased comfort they will enjoy. Though strong and unshrinkable, the material Is much more flexible than the customary cloth and enables the man to use his weapons to greater advantage.

Any soldier will tell you that the manual and tiring exercises can be performed with much greater ease wheu khaki has been substituted for the tight-nttlng and padded regulation tunic. In South Afrtda, as In the Soudan, there will be times when all officers and men must sleep In their clothes, boots and accoutrements, and In these conditions a khaki snlt Is as superior to the average uniform as pajamas to the frock coat and tweed trousers of the civilian. Some army experts are strongly In favor of a more extensive use of khaki for the purpose of campaigning, and esoeclallv of a TSrietT railed 'Mi11i-nin drill." Officers stationed In India hare borne testimony to the rain-repelling properties of this fabric, which make it particularly adapted for use as an overcoat. The same "drill" Is also suited for the construction of army tents, because the material does not absorb moisture, beside wliich, after rain, the tents are not so heavy to move abont a very Important matter to troops when campaigning. A thermome'ter placed in mlllerain tents has proved that the temperature is lowered by 10 to 15 degrees Inside, as compared with other tents.

The cloth being porous, the heated atmosphere Is able to escape, while the material turns the heaviest downpour of rain. At the present time there are several regiments In India, cavalry and infantry, clothed in mlllerain khaki, as well as batteries of artillery. The 6uits which will be worn by our soldiers are not waterproof, but they are well adapted for hard work. "I have worn various uniforms during the last ten years." said a guardsman to our representative yesterday, "but give me khaki for a hot climate and rough campaigning. Teople talk about the superiority of serge, but they forget that bush and bramble will tear wool, but doesn't hurt khaki.

At the same time, we should like a waterproof overcoat, as the rainy season is coming along in South Africa, and the moment you get cold you may become a victim of malaria or dysentery, or both." In recent years khaki color has become fashionable with ladles, and khaki gloves are largely sold throughout England. This variety, however. Is apt to fade, whereas the color for the troops must be tested by an army analyst and stand thirty-six hours' hard boiling! Cyclists and tourists have also taken to the material of late, a special quality of the fabric being manufactured for their use. BOOM IN POULTKT. Immense Trade Developed la Missouri and Other Western.

States. The big corn crop and th bountiful harvests in general are not th enly causes of rejoicing on the part of th western farmer, suys the Buffalo OommerclaL has other products to market, demand for which makes him chuckle poultry, for Instance. In old Missouri, especially, there seem to be a great poultry boom. According to a report Just published by the chief statistician of th state at Jeflerson City, for the last fiscal year, poultry, which 1 classed as a surplus product of the farms, showed the greatest gain. The puoltry shipped and sold by Missouri farmers during the past year amounted to over 70,000, COO pounds.

It realized the producers at first prlc The eggs shipped were 33.S35.000 dozens, and they brought, to th people who gathered them from the nests S3 Poultry and eggs together yielded to the farmers of Missouri, after their own tables bad been supplied, $8,298,000. Th two great item of agricultural gain for Missouri last year, cattle and boge, realized, respectively, and each, only about tour times what the poultry did. The poultry product of the state gained 20.000,000 pounds last year, which meant $1,600,000. And the product this year will score a notable advance, th buyers Stad shippers say. Thonrh reliable figures are at hand.

It Is believed the poultry boom alao prevails In other acricnltural state of the west and southwest. Eren Texas is In line, according to a prominent western pooltryman, who bears this testimony: "Texas Is going to be one of the greatest poultry states in th union. Lots of places in Texaa which used to ship tn eggs for home consumption are now shipping them out by th carload. Yon see th Texas raiser has great encouragement In his climate.

TWO OUA-TXXnS BIAZZZYZZ3S. Ballt ia llarlena ia XB43 (or Uae taa Hew Tork aad Erie Railroad The 5hnlxa correspondent of th Buffalo Express writes: In 1879 the Pullman Palace Oar Company brought onit agotnat the Wagner Palace Oar Company to recover damages for Infringement of the alleged Pullman patents, but after continuing for oaths and the taking of TOlumhrious testimony, a halt was called in the proceeding, and nothing more was ever heard of it, Th pubtte never knew the reason for the discontinuance of that nit. In the outcome of which millions were involved. A former official of the Erie, who knew the Inside of th controversy, placed the correspondent of the Express in possession of the fact years aOter the suit was forgotten, Pullman's chief claim to the monopoly in the sleeping car patent was founded on his control, as assi rnee, of pevtents issued to Ell Wheeler, of Blmtr. September, 1859.

The validity of those patents had been disputed by Rudolph Dirks, of SnnMrertown, who claimed them as his. and that Wheeler bad obtained them by misrepresentation, a claim that he never succeeded In carrying to a legal dectertoo. There had been sleeping car stents Issued more than twenty years efore the Wheeler paitents, the earliest being to Charles McGraw. These did not trouble either Pullman or Wagner In the lawsuit, although Wagner produced the evldenoe to show that Pullman was not the Inventor, as he claimed, of the sleeping car. It was not until the late John Stephenson, the pioneer car builder of this country, made ate revelations, that both the great sleeping oar claimants aaw the ground for their claims falling away from them.

Stephenson brought out the fact that th sleeping car had not only been invented, bat that at least two sleeping cars had been made and were In use years before either Pullman or Wagner was ever heard of. Those cars were built at the Sbepbenaon shops In Harlem, N. In 1843. for the New York and Erie Railroad. Thomas Brown, who made the models for the cars, died but recently.

The principle on which they were constructed was exactly the one on which both the Pullman and Wagner claims to priority of Invention were based. The frames of the seats were stationary, two seat being placed back to back, causing each pair of seat to face each other. The cushions were loose trtrm the frames of thf seabs. and a rod or bar could be slid from under one seat, across the opening between two facing seats at the front or alule side, and fitted tn a hole in the frame of the other seat. The aisle ends of the seat cushions were laid upon this bar, the other ends resting upon the truss ptank at the wall side of the can-, the cushions being pushed forward oyer the foot space.

The back cushions were moved down to take the place of the seait cushions, thus making a platform or bed. There wss partition against which the bfck cushions rested when In place, end which formed bead and foot boards between the beds. Mr. Stephenson said the cars were not Intended as sleeping cars as the term Is used now, but to be need by passengers, if they chose, for reclining or sleeping during their Journey. Tbere was not a railroad in the country then long enough to require an -aJl-night Journey bo get from one end of it to the other.

Railroad travel was over by 9 p. fn. In those days. The Erie was then only a little more than 60 miles in length, its western terminus being Mlddletowu. N.

Y. But those cars, Mr. Stephenson declared, were built to be slept In, and were sleeping cans. It was this revelation aborrt the Erie sleeping cars in 1848 that nonplussed both Pullman and Wagner. The entire foundation of both their claims was In those cutb.

The testimony, of course, would defeat Pullman, but It would leave Wagner with no more legal ownership rn the sleeping car Men than Pdllman had. The result was that both Pullman and Wag ner wisely concluded that tt would not be well to go any further In the legal tost of their "rights," and agreed to compromise, by which they continued to share in the profits of an Invention which was old long before either of its claimants had thought of making It his own. The story of those pioneer sleeping cars Is Interesting. James H. Salmon, of Klmira.

who has been In the employ of the Erie between nfty and caxty years, beginning when the railroad ran only as far as Port Jervls, remembers them well. Owing to the fact that the sides of the fframe of the cars were built in crest! form, thus making the apace for the windows diamond-shaped, the cars became known as the "Diamond Cars." The passenger, if he wanted to ile down, arranged the cushions end she Iron bar himself, and made his bed at pleaamre. Six seats or bedrs were on each side. Ihere wers bedclothes or pillows. The cushions were black haircloth, plush seat ot having com in.

There was a lsrg Uamond-svhaped window oppoeste each seat, and one in the middle, between each pair of seat backs, and a small window in each door. The cans were 11 feet wide. One car wss named the "Ontario" and one the "Erie." In July. 1846. the Ontario was in the first serious railroad wreck that hap pened on the Erie.

It was on an excursion train, and ihe diamond car broke through a trestle bridge near Turner's, N. telescoped the car ahead of it, killing four of the excursionists and so badly injuring a score more that several of them died from the effects. Previous to that accident those curious fore-runiiarg of the luxurious sleeping cars of the present day had proved to be too heavy for practical use on ths road and had to be placed silde to be need only when an emergency called for their use, the road being short of Tolling stock, there toemg but four passenger cars on the road besides the two diamond cars. This fatal excursion was one of the emergencies, and the diamond csts were never run again. Tbey became boarding cars for track laborers, and generally fell into decay, and the last vestige of these pioneer sleeping cars disappeared years ago.

They and their structure were vivid enough In the memory of men twenty years ago, however, to show both George S. Pullman and Webster Wagner how baseless their claim to be the inventors of the sleeping car was, and to call a halt in putting on the record any more in relation to such claims. DIET OF AMERIOAJV8. What They Eat and Wliat They Drink. "1 suppose," said the French chef to representative of the New York Press, after taking a capacious swallow of Culmbacher, "yon have heard or read that old proverb, God sends meat and the devil sends Well, It's true as a rule, though why the author wanted to take the patron saint of the lawyers away from them and bestow him on the cooks remains a mystery.

But there are cooks and cooks. I am strongly In favor of a college for cooks, and at least a year's tuition before graduation. If every man pretending to be a chef were forced to pass a thorough cours to fit him for the position, it would no longer be the devil who sends cook Into the world to destroy the stomachs of human beings. "Now, first, to begin at home," said the chef, wetting bis throat again with a liberal portion of beer, "yon Americans need looking after by the cook more particularly than people of any other nation. You smile at this, but look here, yon have the least consideration for tout stomachs of anybody In the world.
