Beteiider amd Valkyrie-III.
The great international yacht race
reeii the American... "Defender,"
owned by a syndicate, and the British
Valkyrie HI, owned by Lord Dun-
raven, is over, and the America's cup
stays on this side of the water where
it has had safe keeping since 1851. The
fact that the cup remains hereof itself
would be a matter of national rejoicing, were it not that certain circumstances of the contest seem to call in
question the fairness of the victory.
The national pride has been touched
on both sides of the water, and it will
take Judicious handling of the question
to make each side understand the
other's position. Saturday's race was
a fair and square victory on a 30 mile
course of over 8 minutes in favor of the
Defender. Monday's race began with
a foul at the starting line temporarily
' delaying the Defender, giving Yalkyrie
% lead oi over 3 minutes which the Defender subsequently cut down to 45
seconds at the finish. The race was
given the Defender on the foul under
the rules of the club under which they
sailed. Technically this was just, but
0mery true American would rather see
the cup cross the ocean than be held
on a mere technicality. In yesterday's
race the Yalkyrie refused to sail,
claiming the pleasure boats interfered
with a ■ free course, while it was an
evident fact that no such boat was
nearer than half a mile The race
went to the Defender three out of
five. The British claim the Americans are bound to keep the cup, right
or wrong, while the Americans accuse
the English yachtmen with playing
the baby-act. Both are chiefly wrong.
When Britons admit that Americans
are as fair and generous in contest as
they are, and Americans concede that
British sportsmen are not all bull.

take on a new character.

Tlie N. W. Medicine Company is a Growing  Institution.
It is with pleasure that we note the
marked and rapid success that attends
the Northwestern Medicine Company.
About the. firsD day of February
last, E. J. Chinnery came to Glare
from Scottville, leased rooms in the
Louch block, and began, or rather, continued the manufacture of the Hart-
zell series of proprietary medicines of
which he was the owner of the patents.
The articles had already gained considerable reputation, and by untiring
push and labor he got the business
well underway with encouraging prospects. June 1st a stock company of
Glare's most energetic business men
was formed, under the title of the
Northwestern Medicine Company, and
with a good capital, began to push the
business into a larger field. Such has
been the success of the re-organized
company that it has been found necessary to seek better and larger accommodations. This week the company
leased of W. H. Elden the second floor
and basement of his new brick building and already a force of carpenters
are at work fitting up the offices, labra
tory, stock and packing rooms for the
company. Heretofore the Medicine
company has given most attention to
the manufacture and sale of the Hart-
zell proprietary medicines, but hereafter, while taking care of its growing
ing trade in these, goods, chief attention will be given to wholesaling drugs
of all kinds. Clare is an excellent
shipping point and the company will
supply the drug trade of northern
Michigan.
The most active members of the
-Northwestern are J. F. Tatman, general manager and secretary, J. H.
Schilling, treasurer, E. J. Chinnery,
chemist, and Alex. Touchette,, the
courteous traveling salesman. Under
the immediate direction of so able a
quartette the company is sure not only
to coin money for the stock holders
but to make the business a source of
pride to Clare. The SEasrmEL wishes
the concern unbounded success.

Between East and West Side
Business MenQ
A YERY EXCITING  GAME.
Written up by our Sporting "Editor and
Illustrated by a Staff Artist.
When the sun set. Monday evening
it was red—very red. To the east
(Blue) side business men it seemed an
augury in favor of their enemy across
the street, the Beds, as if Heaven itself had set its banner on the western
battlements. And when the pale
moon came up a few hours later in the
east with its upper segment gnawed
away3 the e. s. b. m. took it as a sign
that on the morrow would they be
chewed up likewise, or words to that
effect, but not so poetical.
But when the sun arose next morning, the eventful 10th of September,
the sky was blue—very blue, and its
blueness increased all day, so much so,
in fact, tbat the red side could even
feel the color.
Soon after dinner the Calkinsville
band came in sight up the street from
the south in a gaily decorated omnibus, drove directly up between the opposing lines and halted at the Calkins,
where their temporary ' wants were
looked after. Quite a number of farmers and others had come to town to
see the fun and get excited. ^
They had both fun and ex- ^> : \^>
citement before the day was ^S? •-■ \
over. jj""   *u
Shortly after two o'clock the crowd
began to hasten to the grounds to get
a good seat in the grand stand' and
take in every detail of preparation.
The police force
was there and soon
found plenty to do
to keep the small
boy from scaling
the fences.
The contestants were as slow as
elephants in arriving and the
^ audience grew weary. At last
all the players arrived and a
motly array of uniforms and un-uni-
forms they presented.
After at least the usual amount of
professional argument on both sides,
which denoted that everyone was well
up in American *^ art of kick
ing, the um- (§ pire took
his position, /gfev elevated
his voice an^^SfW-^, called out
"play ballt" ' C&f* 'Fortune
favored the W$n % east (Blue),
side in the ^j-Jggbj^ flipping
of the copper and they lent the Beds
into the field to chase the ball.
The illustrations accompanying this
lucid and accurate recital of what followed were taken by our lightning artist by instantaneous process." The reason why the
photographs are rather
dark, is due to the fact
that red takes dark, and
every exposure was made
at a critical moment when
the faces were flushed with excitement
and covered with dust.
The Blue*side had its first turn at
the bat; and up stepped
the first man with confidence. He leaned on
his bat a moment, then
faced the Western pitcher who shut himself
together like   a   bed
spring and when he straightened^7>ut
the ball screamed over the plate. "One
strike" yelled the umpire and the
grand stand trembled with excitement.
Next was a ball. Then a little foul.
Then the batsman made a vicious
swipe at the ball and
missed the in-shoot.
"Two strikes!" Every
mouth on the West side
opened up and let out a
yell that started the
^__ _^ shingles on the grand
stand. The pitcher gathered himself
up for a strike-cut and shot the cannon ball once more, but the bat got in
its work and the sphere
went sailing into Elden's territory in center
field. He made a grand
effort to capture the sky
scraper, but he must
have miscalculated the
distance. By the time he picked the
ball up and threw it in, the batsman
was at third base.  Then the east side

loosened the balance of the shingles.
The game was fairly started.
We have space only for some of the
more important events of the game.
In the first innings the chief feature
was the catching. Our illustration
above shows how some of it was done.
The first innings was a
long one and when it ended the official scorer
chalked down ten tallies
on the fence.
Then the West came, to
bat with red in their eyes.
The way they began to pound the ball
and chase each other aiound the bases
changed the blue to a deep indigo.
Three runs had been made and two men
out and the third a hard hitter to bat.
He solved the pitcher's easy curve in a
twinkling and
Grashed the ball
across the second
base line. Mine
host   Galkins,   of
the old "Whirlwinds," was there and
he made a wonderful stop, as you see
illustrated, taking the ball in as readily as he would a belated traveler.
Only one innings apiece, yet everybody
was tired, including the spectators.
The second innings started off for
the Blues in rattling      <^\    ^^
style.    The chief   ^   }^l I
feature   was   the
base stealing of the
bank cashier which ought to give him
at least twenty years.
So the game went on from start to
finish. The big lead of the Blues was
nearly overcome by the Beds in their
half of the second innings, and after
that there wasn't much fooling on
either side.
In the third innings the Blues were
shut out, the third
man being put out
at the home plate
after   making  a
beautiful     slide
.g^,    from third   base.
SP       In the first half
of the eighth innings the Blues made
fifteen runs, and it is not certain but
that they would be running yet but in
the darkness that began to settle over
the grounds,(the sun having set at the
sixth innings) Landlord Galkins made
a big hit and in the excitement that
followed ran clear round to first base
via third and second bases, before discovered, and the umpire called him
out, making side out. The game was
then called on account of darkness.
As the Blues had 45 runs to their credit
and the Beds 19, neither side anticipated any change in the result hy prolonging the game. The score was set
back to the last even innings, making
30 to 19, the extra 15 cut off being of
little consequence.
The game was quite
harmonious after it
once started and no
decision of the umpire Was questioned.
The coaching was of
the most approved
kin&       . {WHO'S a McMh'?)
Two games have gone to the west
side and one to the east. The west is
still ahead, f But the east is only waiting for another year to roll around for
a chance to get even. - ..."  ,
In the evening both nines met at
the Calkins and discussed the game
over a yery, excellent bill of fare
which was well enjoyed by all. Severe
effort through the day having had no
apparent effect to diminish the mas-
ticatory functions of the players.

will readily be seen to be appropriate
