Rail-birds and Other Onlookers Find SomeFault in Awarding of the Blues.

One of the most difficult classes of th«»horse show- came before the judge* yester-

; day afternoon in the competition for the1 hackney challenge cup. To the lay mindItdid not appear to be so hard to pick the; winner, but. as it happened, the consensusof opinion did not tally with that of thethree gentlemen in the rtDa*. and after alensrrhy consultation the blue rosette was

Paul Borahs Vanity Fair, a beautifully:'formed little mare with extreme speed, was jone of those selected In the final round-up ;after such champions as Ringing Bells.:

:Moonshine. Lady Tuck and Royal Victoria jhad heard the word "Gate." Vanity Fair)defeated Lady Diihara at Bay Shore and !won the championship in a class which in-

'eluded ttmeinc Bells, but the contest yes- iterday was plainly between the Harrimanand Moore entries.

Lady Seaton's victory in the open har- jness class was not quite as sweeping but |she defeated a large field, which includedthe once Invincible Lord Baltimore, fromthe Fairmont Farms. Lord Baltimore was:pom? right yesterday, which made him a!hard one to beat. Alfred Vanderbilfs Sir j:James is a good looking animal, level head- \ed and level jcaited, but he seems to bebuilt for .-\u25a0. heavier vehicle than he was. jdrawing yesterday. sad he really travels jbetter that way. Jack Donnelly sat behind jHob Saw. which looked rather coarse in jcomparison with some of the entries, but jhis style and gaits won him an \u25a0}!. C-.1!from the judges. :

A reversal of form which was almost'

start'unr: occurred in the roadsters class !when Lorna Doone, a bay mare which has ireceived no special attention since the show iopened, defeated W. M. V. Hoffman's Ten-eriffe, a blue ribbon winner in a similarclass on Saturday, and Frances Bain, thelast-named being placed second. ,

The class was large and difficult, and the'

judges were compelled to eliminate plenty J. \u25a0;\u25a0 blue ribbon winners, among themVrineess Morrcll. before they could gel ;down to the work of deciding the distribu-

Never before, has aTammany or any other sort of tiger had somuch trouble in crossing Brooklyn Bridge.

The animal, which looks like a youngleopard, was presented to Mrs. Wright atProgreso by one of a party of naturalistsp hich had captured Itin some Aztec ruins.

When she arrived In Brooklyn on the-Esp*»ranza or, November ithe customsauthorities would not permit Mrs. Wright

to retain the tiger. Tt was only after ithad been proved to the satisfaction of thegovernment officials that it was to beplaced in the Central Park menagerie andno fee would be required to see it that therelease was granted.

The tiger caused a creat deal of excite-ment for the lions, who eyed it most ofthe afternoon.

Mcntclair Delegation Off for MilkSup-

on Friday morninp.

The Border's Condensed Milk Company,

under whose auspices the trip is made, has(\u25a0eOn fighting the Montclair Board of

Health for the last Three years. The lat-

ter adopted an ordinance which required

that milk boW in Montclair must comefrom herds which have been submitted to

the tuberculin test All the dealers com-plied with this ordinance except the BordenCompany, which sought an injunction andhas str.ee refused to comply with the local

health regulations in reference to thetuberculin test.

The prrs^nt expedition of the women ofMontcjair is for th*> purpose, of showing

WOMEN TO INSPECT DAIRIES

Municipal Research Probers Sug-gest New State Law to

Remedy Things.

Trenton. >>"• -T - Nov. 16.—"Conditions in

the State are deplorable, and many Of theinhabitants and many of the honest mer-chants are undoubtedly suffering: on ac-count of the failure of the Legislature to

protect them in this very vital matter," is

a statement made by the investigators

under the Robert L. Stevens Fund forMunicipal Research, which deals with in

investigation of the weights and measuresin eleven cities of the state, filed with iheSecretary of State.

Five remedies are suggested to insureadequate weights and measures. They ate:

First—A revised and adequate state law.

Second— A property equipped state bureau

of weights and measures, which will guar •

antee fairness.

Third—Adequately equipped bureaus ofweights and measures in all large cities.Strong argument for this remedy is theconclusion of the United States bureau that

conditions in cities having local inspection

service, even when this is inadequate, are

much better than in cities having no in-spection at all.

Fourth— Either state inspection of weights

and measures in small communities and

rural districts or county inspection ofcities and communities having a population

of less thanSo.OOe, for example, such in-spection to be insured through county|

bureaus of weights and measures.Fifth—Purchasers should ascertain

whether their dealers' weight and measuresar»- Inspected aid sealed and should alsomake occasional tests of quantities pur-

chased to see that four gallons shall not

be sold for five gallons, twenty-eight

quarts for a bushel, thirty-three inchesfor a yard, twelve ounces for a pound or jdry commodities weighed in liquid meas- ;

ures.The report says that for weights and !

measures 574 stores were visited: for

weights 2."6 places were visited: for scales555 stores were visited; for dry measure113 places: for liquid measure 121 places

were visited and packages marked ready

for sale were found in 179 stores.

The report shows that only 4 per cent ofthe. dealers had corect weights and meas-ures, etc.: 10 per cent had correct scales;

15 per cent had correct weights; 41 per

cent had correct measures and 11 per cent

had correct packages, while 35 per cent

bad either incorrect weights, measures,

=cales or packages.

Dr. Wilson has gone to the Middle Westfor a short rest. Before he left here hewas petitioned by his jurisprudence classto continue his lectures. Dr. Wilson's let-ter, which Is addressed to "my dearfriends," says:

*

"Tour request that Ishould continue mylectures in jurisprudence has given me theSTeatest pleasure and gratification, and Iwish with all my heart that it were possi-ble to comply with it. Ifeel, however, thateven if it were possible for me to continue™y lectures my time would be so brokenjn upon, my service in tho classroom soirregular and unsatisfactory that it wouldbe of no advantage to you. and Ishouldmyself be mortified to have the thine badlydone.

"1 have thought it my duty to resign notonly the presidency of the university, butmy professorship also, though by a mis-understanding it was not so Interpreted, atthe last meeting of the board, and there-ore Ihave to reply to your generous re-

quest that Iam no longer connected withhe teaching body of the university, whichIhave so long loved and served."

The board of trustees of th* City Clubmet in the clubhouse at No. m West 41thstreet, last iiishT. to consider question? of

interest to the organization. th«» most im-portant among 1 them bein^ whether or not

Congressman William S. Bennet over-stepped his privileges as a member when

he held an anti-Griscom meeting of Re-publican leaders in the c:lub on Monday af-ternoon. Ina statement sriven out by Sec-retary Binkertl the trustees show that they

do not think Mr. nnrf wilfullydisobeyed

a rigid rule which prohibits any such meet-

ing in the club precincts as the one hscalled.

The statement alien mi by the sssrS"tary ?aid that '"the board of trustees re-

ceived one communication with reference to

the conference held by the Hon. William

'Admiral Mason Comments onResults of Puritan Test.

Washington, Nov. 16.—Rpar Admiral V*'-ton K. Mason, chief of the Bureau of Ord-nance of the navy, is of the opinion thatsuch an attack as was made on the Puri-tan will never be duplicated In actual war-fare, but that Important lessons probablyn>ny be drawn from the results of the test.Especially valuable, he thinks, will be the

information gained in connection with themanner of backinpr armor plates so thatthe maximum of resistance to buckling

and dislodprment under any kind of attackmay be secured. The wider plates of abattleship's belt, he says, would have re-s'stfd buckling more effectually, and thelongitudinal bulkhead in all modern ships jwould have confined the flooding thin jnarrow limits.

Explosive gelatine. Admiral Him adds,is the most powerful of all the nitroglycer-

ine compounds used for military or blast-ing purposes, and is one of the most sensi-tive of such compounds. Th" charge oftwo hundred pounds which was used in

these experiments is believed to be thelargest amount of this explosive ever de-tonated.
