Two for Defender.
The decision of the Regatta Commit-
tee of the New York Yacht Club, which
sustains the protest of the Defender
against the Valkyrie III. in Tuesday’s
race, may be variously criticised, but
was really the only course to take.
The race is given to the Defender be-
cause the violation of the rules of the
road by the British yacht was unmis-
takable, and Lord Dunraven, who is a
good philosopher, as well as a staunch
sportsman, acquiesces in the decision.
The third race is being sailed this
afternoon, and the general belief is
that the Defender will sustain the
brilliant reputation of her makers and
reward the patriotism of the syndicate
of gentlemen who set her afloat. It is
unfortunate that so important a con-
test, and one so gallantly contested,
should have been blemished by the
Valkyric’s unintentional foul of Tues-
day. ,
A fair field and no favor is all that
anybody asks in a yacht race. Which-
ever boatshallawiu. tO-day, let us hope
that it may Win beyond all question or
doubt. {Any mo‘retechnical complica-
tions would go far to destroy the inter-
est in international yachting.

Something of tho Hoi'rible,
As doctors and lawyers have to deal
with the horrible as well as with the
pleasant things in’life, it was to be ex-
pected that some. of the former would .
come before the medics-legal congress,
in New York, last week. But it was
scarcely deemed likely that the dis-
tinguishedpractitiOners in law and
medicine assembled on that occasion
would discuss so gruesome a topic as
the question whether a physician is
ever justified in taking the life of his
patient. It was generally supposed
that the progress of mankind had left
all that sort of thing in the dim and
distant past. This supposition, how-
ever, was erroneous. That question
was broached and discusssed, and—-
strange as it may appear—there were
two sides inthe debate. Albert Bach,
vice president of the society, contended
that, under certain circumstances, a
patient ought to be killed. He re-
ferred, of course, to the victim of a
painful and incurable disease, such as
cancer of the tongue. In such a case it
seemed to him only humane to end the
and he thought the
world would yet see commissions ap-
patient’s misery,
pointed to pass upon just suchfcises.
I’hc laWyers present were inclined to
but the doctors
did not take kindly to the proposition.
agree with Mr. Bich,
On the contrary, theyugreed with Dr.
Quinby, of Jersey City, who declared
that a “physician his no right to ter~
minute the life of patient, even when to
prolong that life is to cause most agon-
izing tortures}?
t would not be difilcult to construct
. a plausible argument in favor of Mr.
Bach’s position. A formidable array
of facts might be cited in its support.
Long periods of awful suffering .might'
be prevented by helping the victims of
incurable diseise to make their exit
from life. But the sacredness of hu-
. man life. has grown in the appreciation
of mankind with every step that has
been made in the progress Of civiliza-
tion. To adopt Mr. Bach’s suggestion
would be a resumption of one of the
usages of barbarism. The trend of pub-
lic sentiment is in the reverse direction.
The highest ideal of the physicians
skill his ever been to save and not to
GJStruy lifr. Toe greater the world’s
advancement in civilization, knowledge
and culture, the stronger this sentiment
grows.

Still With Us.
Ex-deputy sheriff Toner was not a lit-
tle offended last eveningnt a published
statement that he had been out of town
all of the week and a search was being
'made for him, and called upon the au-
thor "of the article and expressed his
opinion of him.
He emphatically denies that he has
been trying to keep out of sight, and as
evidence offers to prove that he was in
this city on Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday.
He admits, however, that there is
trouble between himself and his wife
which is likely to result in their separa-
tion. He expects to go to Boston to re-
side 12nd will settle with his creditors in
full, his property being sufficient to pay
up all claims.
Mrs. Toner Is now conducting the
business it having beeen turned over to
her by her husband.
Puck’s Comedians.
Last evening “Lost in London” was
given by this combination at the Opera
House, and met with general .appro-
bation from a good sized audience.
Miss Arnot as “Tiddy” the girl, of the
mines was seen to great advantage,
and her rich Lancashire dialect was in
evidence, and most perfectly given.
The songs introduced in the perform-
ance were all meritorious. This even-
ing will be given a combination show
called “A Nightvin New York.” It is
made up after the latest fad in theatri-
cats that has not heretofore found its
way into the popular price entertain-
ments, and contains a seemingly end-
less succession of bright comedy situa-
tions, songs, melodies, skirt dances'nnd
negro specialties.
Found 8. Button.
For some weeks past, Laura, the little
child of Mr. and Mrs. Peter J. O’Brien,
has experienced difficulty in breathing
through one side of her nose. The
cause was at first attributed to a cold
and remedies to that end were used.
Yesterday the parents became convinc-
ed that there was some foreign sub-
stance in the child’s nose and summon-
ed a physician who made an examina-
tion and Within a few moments had dis-
lodged a large shoe-button from the
child’s nostril. It would be hard to de-
cide as to which was the greater sur-
prised and pleased, the child or Its par-
cnts.
Splendid Attraction.
The manager of the Norwalk Opera
House announces his best attraction of
the season on Tuesday Sept 17th when
will be produced the beautiful comedy-
drama. “The Brooklyn Handicap.”
The plot of this magnificent comedy is
full of heart interest, with comedy and
pathos equally blended and tears and
laughter alternate. The cast is a most
excellent one, having been specially se-
lected. The Scenic effects and climaxes
are more realistic than we can possibly
describe, and must be seen to be real-

fender to continue over the course.
The Defender was recalled and both
boats returned to their moorings.
After giving his evidence yesterday
on Tuesday’s fouling of the Defender
by Valkyrie, Ler D'unraven emphat-
ically told the committee that he would
not race again unless the course was
kept clear. He anathematized in one
sweeping denunciation the crowding
tactics of steam yachts, passenger steam-
He stated that the Val-
kyrie had not only been interfered with
while jockeying for the start, but also
during each leg of the triangular course.
He also complained about the actions
of the fleet during Saturday’s race. Sn
impressive was Lord Dunravcn in his
remarks that he convinced the commit—
tee that, should Valkyrie be interfered
with at any part of to-day’s race the
yacht would beimmed'lately withdrawn.

.A gentleman who has traveled all over»
the world says the coolest act of heroism
that he everwitnesscd was performed.
by a. woman. . He 'was'driving‘ on a hot.
summer day up a. read out from the side
of a mountain. On one side of him was"
a wall of rock; on the other side a. pre-_
‘ cipice falling off to a. valley, which was-
perhaps half a. mile wide. Across the‘
valley another road wound up another
mountain, and on it, toiling upward, he .»
saw another team with a solitary occu-
pant—a woman. Such mountain paths ‘
are not only steep, but are rarely wide
enough for two teams to pass, except in
carefully prepared spots.
The tWo teams were crawling slowly
upward. In the peculiar clearness of
the atmosphere and the utter stillness of
a California canon, both sight and sound
carry far.
. All at once the gentlemans car was
struck by a strange noise falling ,upon
the quiet-quick and sharp. He listened
it came from across the canon; and
turning, he saw to his -horror,~ tearing
down the steep ascent at full gallop,a
pair of powerful horses attached to a
heavy wagon, such as the Mexicans use_
to draw wood' 1n.
Down they came, straight in the path
up which the woman was driving. A
moment more and sudden destruction
would be upon her.
The gentleman opened his lips to cry
out. Half a mile of valley separated
him from the woman. He could only sit
frozen with horror, and with eyes- glued
to the opposite hill awaiting the end.
The woman had stopped her team and
sat as if petrified. It was impossible to
turn reund or even to turn out. If she
did nothing, it was because there was
nothing to be done.
Sudd nly, to his unutterable amaze-
ment, t e watcher saw the woman rise
deliberately in her seat, raise her arm
and fire. There was a. flash, a puff of
smoke, a report, and simultaneously the
outer of the two frenzied horses stum—
bled, fell and pitched headlong, dragging
his companion and the wagon over into .
the gorge below. 4 V -
All this had passed in a flash. The
watcher, stupefied and gasping, sat gaz-
ing at the valley,into‘ the depths of which
the mad vision had disappeared.
Then he looked at the mountain oppo:
site. The narrow road was» perfectly
free, the air was as still as before, the
silence unbroken, and the team with the
solitary woman was quietly winding up
the road again.
The man, too, resumed his climb, but
with an indelible picture burnt in upon
his brain. Who the woman was he
never knew. A pioneer and a. mother
of pioneers, probably, whose frontier
life had made her familiar with danger
and swift: in emergencies. ~
An instant’s indecision, the trembling
of a hand, would have been fatal; but
both brain and hand were under absolute
control. In nine cases out of ten it is
not the danger 1. ‘ ‘ .ch kills us, but We,
