Wells, of Boston, 4th. This race was novel
one here, and was quite successful in point of
interest. Doyle and Colbert took the lead,
which they kept to the stake boat, where the
race became quite exciting, owing to the bad
turn made by lie Voyageur," in accomplish
ing which the leading boat was deNterously
cut out by the MARY Louisa Ludlum," who
made splendid round between the stake and
''Le Voyageur" without fouling. The bad
turn of Doyle and Colbert was owing to
misunderstanding of the order on the part of
one Of them the boat built by Reed, which
is considered a very fine one is also like many
of his boats unused to turning on a pivot"

THIRD RACE, FOR s1x-oARED LAPsrREAK
BOATS.
Three of the college six.oared boats were
all that were entered in this race. The
"Thetis," rowed by the Harvard fresh
men, took the first position; the "Thu-
lia," rowed by the Yale sophomores, the
second and the Harvard sophomore class
boat the third. Much speculation was indulg-
ed in concerning this race, as it afforded the
Yale sophomores an admirable opportunity to
retrieve their fallen fortunes and beat the Har-
ward sophomores, provided they were the
strongest, puckiest, and most skillful crew.
The boats all started simultaneously in capital
style but they had proceeded but short dis
lance when the Harvard sophomores, who
were about length ahead, thinking they had
plenty of room, steered little ahead Of the
"Thulia," and did not clear themselves until
they had foued it'll that boat which gave up
the race and returned to the judges line. But
the two Harvard boats did not slack their
stroke, and came beck in the following time

on account Of the fouling of the "Thua" by
the Harvard sophomores, and the first prize

ond prize was not awarded.
