MIR. GARRISON ON COLLEGE REGATTAs.
William Lloyd Garrison has an article in
in the Christian Union, strongly condemn
ing college regattas. While he advocates
judicious physical training, he denies
that the muscular emulation called out by
such competitive trials affect the classes
which need its influence. He says:
cit is those who are cOnstitutionally
feeble who require aquatic exercise, or
some other method to strengthen their
physical system; but such are not the ones
selected to measure paddles at Springfield.
Only students with plenty of Drawn from
the start are called into requisition. because
of fore-ordained trial of animal vigor
with others equally Astounding in muscle
and persistency. That trial is a sequence
of 'spurts,' over too greatly extended
course and not calculated TO be OF the least
physical benefit to any of the contestants,
but rather at times to be seriously detrimen-
tai. For these and other weighty reasons
that might be adduced, it is plain that these
rival college regattas are not promotive of
good-fellowship or bodily health-of physi-
cal training for its own sake or innocent
recreation under favorable circumstances.
They breed Jealousy, variance, Improbable
emulation, absurd vain glory. They are
costly experiments pecuniarily, without
rendering anything like an equivalent.
For them the college faculties must be
held responsible; and now openly es-
pouse them, it is only for them to lay
positive interdic. upon all such contests to
prevent thier repetition"

UPON THE RESUMPTION OF THE TWEED
TRIAL
today, the tedious work of procuring jury
was continued. A juror who WAS on the
stand yesterday evening was found competent
by the court after a long examination. Mr
Bartlett, ST., of the counsel for the defence,
rose TO make some remarks on admissions by the
juror tending to show bias.
Judge DAVIS cannot hear any argument
now"
Bartlett.-"would your honor be kind enough
TO hear
Judge Davis. I will not be kind enough to
hear another word on the subject"
BaTtlett.-"wOuldy your honor be kind enough

JUdge.-"What subject"
Bartlett.-"No, your honor will not hear ar

when the next juror is called that you will hear

Judge Davis (angrily).-'Sit down"
Bartlett.-'l refer your honor TO Chief JUS

Judge Davis trapping with his gayel).-"'Sit
down sir, sit down, be cautious sir or / will

thing of that character will fall down upon you

Neagh's argument. McNeagh proceeded and
was severe on the Newark witnesses, ridiculIng
Mrs. Toemb's testimony with regard TO the size
OF Wilson's shoes, censured the prosecution for
their attempt TO identify Wilson with Co.'S, and
characterized the evidence as totally made
qnate and conflicting, based upon preiu-
dice engendered by the notOriety given
to this case throughout the country.
McNeagh closed with a brilliant peroration
after speaking three and half hours. Dis
trict Attorney Wagner made the closing speech
tor the prosecution, summing up the evidence,
and insisting on the evidence OF Identification
as ample and conclusive.
The court then adjourned till to- morrow.
