THE INQUIRER'S _REGATTA TO BE REPEATED THIS YEAR Tie Success of tie Itqnirer's Plan last Year leads to Eitension this Year The Inquirer's Motor Boat Regattas —they will be held this year along the Jersey Coast, the same as they were | last year, when they created no end of interest among the competitors and the crowds of spectators alike. Only, this year the regattas will be extended farther north and will take in Island Heights, Seaside Park, Beach Haven and Bay Head |ClubB. This will make a complete series of events extending all along the coast, and as last year great crowds will attend. The commodores and representatives of the yacht clubs held an informal meeting at The Inquirer office Tuesday morning and drafted the general plans for the regattas. All the important clubs were represented with the exception of Cape May. Commodore Wilson found it impossible to be in the city yesterday. It is expected that Cape May will also be in ine. Commodore Amos H. Crist represented Holly Beach. Vice Commodore A. S. Murphy looked after Wildwood's interests. Commodore "Louis Crease was gp resent from Ocean City. Commodore John McAvoy was here from Island Heights and and . Fleet Captain Charles W. Beck, Jr., from : Beach Hsven, was also present Commodore Wells, of Sea Isle City Yacht i Club, was detained from attending the i meeting, as was Commodore Ottens, of i Wildwood. These absentees, together i with representatives of the Bay Head i Yacht Club, will assist in the detail t arrangement of the regattas at the next meeting of the Commodores at The Inquirer office next Monday morning, 'July 19, at 11 o'clock. i It Is proposed to hold a big final re- < gatia tor the whole coast at Island i Hieghts, August 2!st. ( AN EARLY flKE \ A midnight fire alarm always brings i the residents of Ospe May out of their beds in a hurry. There seems to be something in the bell's warnlng clang which stirs everybody. " At 1 :3l Wednesday morning an alarm was turned in and the engines hurried 1 to North street- The chemical com- ' pany arrivetf first to find a barn' in' the 1 rear of the Miller cottage ablaze. A J moment later the entire fire fighting ' apparatus was at work battling with ' the flames. The fire bad gained such 1 headway that the barn could not be c saved, although the surrounding prop- ' erty was protected so well that no ' more damage was done. The loss is estimated at about |500. Owners of surrounding properties give the highest praises to the fire department and say without reserve that its promptness and efficiency saved a disastrous fire. * A barnjwithin twenty feet of the one 1 destroyed was saved. £ I CASTOR I A , lor Infants and Children. 1 Its AM Ym Han Alwaji Bought 1 AT CAPE MAY POINT E.

BULL FLAYERS MUST KNOW. Msrt of the Big Leagues Leave Little to Queeeworfc. [Each man In « major league must know not_only the strength but the weakness of eTery opponent, and the I array of tacts and information eon ternlcg players that each pitcher can muster up is amazlnfc to the layman. I Late last season Boston presented a new outfielder who, as far as 1 can learn, never had played In a major league before, and no one of the Chicago clnb knew him or ever bad seen him play ball, yet all were perfectly familiar with him, his "peculiarities. " bitting habits and disposition. On the y way to the grounds Brown and Ben! e bach, one of whom was to pitch, went minutely over that new man, analyzt Ing his position at bat, the way he ] swung at a ball, the kind of ball he could hit and what he could not and exactly how fast he coukl reach first B base. 8teiufelut was warned 'that the 1 man was dangerous and a tricky buntb er and that he always bunted toward r third. When the pitchers got through discussing the newcomer Kllng and e Chance analyzed him as a base rue r ner. , "I talnk," Kllng remarked, "we can catch that fellow a couple of times if ' he gets on bases today. If be reaches second ni pull off that delayed throw • Let Joe cover and Johnny 6talL" t Iq the third inning of the game the r unfortunate youngster reached second e base on a hit and a sacrifice. On the 5 first ball pitched to the next batter be raced up toward third. Kllng motioned as If to throw. Tinker covered sec" ' ond base like a flash, and Evers stood ' still. The recruit at first made a jump ' toward second base; then, seeing Kilng - had not thrown, he slowed down. Tin s ker, walking back past him, remarked . "We'd have caught you that time, old . pal. If Kllng had thrown." For Just . one fatal trice the youngster turned his face to retort to Tinker's remark, and In that Instant Kllng threw; Ev ' era met the ball at second base, Jabbed ' It against the runner and before he B knew what had happened he was out. - That man really was caught In the t bus on the way to the ball grounds. i for the play was executed exactly as . Kllng planned.— American Magazine. German Business Woman's Idea. j One of the cleverest young business women In Germany, well known In ' Berlin society and considered one of the prettiest girls In the German capital, has Just secured on behalf of the company of which she Is chairwoman n a contract from the Belgian State rail- '' ways which marks the last thing In ' railway economy effected by a foreign J government.

Modern Damascening. In the ancient' art of damascening.

1 AFTER THE CIRCUS. Hew the loot roaated peanut la swallowad, The last clown hat gone on parade, The last sugared popcorn been followed By si pa of the last lemonade. His eyes, once so big, that shone brightly Through sll of the glad afternoon. Are shut, and his lingers close tightly And cling to his gaudy balloon. The last acrobat's been applauded And shuffled his way from the mat. The last bareback rider's been lauded. The clown, with his sugar loaf hat. Has gone with his powder and spangles. The diver has made his last leap. And here In my arms are brown tangles Of curls and a boy fast asleep. One sticky hand rests on my shoulder, I One holds fast the gaudy balloon. ' That shrinks and before It's much older Will fade like the glad afternoon. His dreams, It may be, of the maddest Of somersets recklessly hurled— The tired est, sleepiest, gladdest . And stickiest lad In the world. And. oh. but the spangles were splendid: And, oh, but the music was grand! j The side splitting clown laughter Llended With soul stirring airs by the band Till naught of the glad marvel lingers ; Save what In his dreams he may keep As he clasps his balloon with close Angers < And rests In my arms. fast, asleep. And so from these joys without number Ere aught of the glitter was gone Be went to his dream laden slumber, ' Where on plays the music and on . For him all the revel Is maddest, ' For hfm not a flag has been furled— The tired est. sleepiest, gladdest And stickiest lad In the world. — J. W. Foley In Youth's Companion. In Kldvills.
