To the Editor Of the National Republican:
DEAR SIR: VIII you kindly allow me q few
words In your paper explaining my action as ref
cree In the late race between the Potomas and
Analostans, about which some of the Washing
ton dailies have been pleased to take me to task:
In the first place am charged with starting the
crews in an unusual and laundering way, with
out giving the customary caution Of "Are you
ready!' % before giving the word "Go." / can
simply refer, in reply, to the special articles of
agreement signed by the representatives Of both
clubs, which expressly provide that the crews
shall be started with the WORD 'Go !" only.
In regard TO the foul which took place shortly
after the first start, there but two courses to
take in such cases. If the boats come together
in water belonging to either crew the boat which
is out Of its own water must be adjudged the
loser. But should the boats come together in
in neutral water, or, to be more explicit, should
it happen that the crews steered in toward each
other and met half way between the two courses,
then neither party would be entitled to claim the
race on account Of the foul, as IL is clear that
neither party had any right to be there, and the
referee would be required to start the boats over
again. Now to return to Mondays contest. The
boats after starting took rather an erratic course
the Analostans coming in on the Potomacs, fore.
Brown, also seeing his error, headed back for his
proper course, and Truax, having been crowded
In too close to the Virginia shore, also came out
toward the centre OF the river, the boats coming
together In what seemed to me neutral water
So ordered them to start again. certainly
the rule, and think that a reference TO "The
Laws Of Boat Racing" will convince any impair
tial spectator OF the justice of my decision.

The Most Remarkable Remedy Ever discovered


BENsoN's cAPCIHE POROUS PLASTER
At no time in the history OF true medicine has
an article appeared which has met with greater
approval and success than Bsnson's Cspclne
Plaster. Why they are preferred to all other
porous plasters is owing to their improved com
position; they act instantaneously, cure speedily
and efectually.
Physicians and the general public who acknowl-
edge the great benefits derived from the use Of
the ordinary poroIs plaster, however, maintain
that their action is lot sufficiently prompt, re-
quiring time, patience and continuous wear to
effect q cure. Benson's Capcine Plaster over
comes this difficulty by accomplishing in a few
hours that which It takes any other plaster as
many days.
Although a recent discovery, Capcine has been
thoroughly tested by physicians, and In each in
stance has been pronounced the most remarkable,
safe, certain and thoroughly eficacious remedy
ever discovered.
incorporating Capcine In an improved Porous
Plaster has been accomplished after repeated So
Dcitations from the medical fraternity, and Is
now prescribed by them with unprecedented sue
cess; especially in rheumatism, pleurisy, stub
born colds, kidney complaints ard all diseases
for which porous plaster has been used.
Its marvellous influence over the circulation
and general effect on the system Is almost incred-
ible; from the moment Of its application to the
affected part II operates with astonishing vigor-
brings relief ana cures more efectually than any
known plaster, liniment or compound.
1t is q genuine pharmaceutical preparation Of
the highest order Of merit; its Ingredients are en-
tirely vegetable and free from mineral or metal
poisons. Ono trial will convince the most skep-
tical Of its superiority over the ordinary porous
relief, ask your druggist for Benson's Capclne
Plaster. Price, rs cents.
