PITrsBURGH October l3.-The scu'-

between Evan Morris and Patsey Luth-
er, resulted In the formers success. Both
are Pittsburgners, and Morris has been
champion since June as, when he
wrested from Billy Schsrti the title which
that oarsman had captured from Evan n
year ago. This match WAS made, after
some difficulty, for 81 600 = side, to come
OF at Hutton Course, on the Ale
gheny, course twelve miles from
the city. The course was two miles
and half from the stake-bost to the
buoys, each man having his own, and re-
turn Hon. Henry NJ. Long, OF the Pitts
burgh. Barge CLUB, was chosen referee
! TIE men got the word at ten minutes TO
o'clock. They made beautiful start,
the osrs taking the water simultaneously,
the first one hundred yards being in ~
perfect form AS the march OF well
drilled company each pulling forty to the
minute, Presently Luther showed evil
dence OF having caught sslig ht cramp, an
dropped length behind; but moment
ter he pu! ou wonderful spirit, and il
hsf dozen strokes tapped ms opponent.
Morris was evidently worried now, and
splsshed heavily, dropping his Isc,
meantime to thirty-six strokes. For
three quarters OF n mile Luther led BY u
length Then to the end of a mile sad
a malt it WAS remarkable stiff race,
with nobody showing to the front; but
now Morris gradual Y began to gain, and
was sooa two lengths ahead.
At the turning buoy Luther spurted,
and recovered length. Both men
made fne work in turning the buoys. A
half mile further the positions were the

AFTER THE RACE

Weisgerber appeared to be in splendid
] trim, and telt but little the effects OF his
card work while Denmarsh seemed 10
be completely exhausted, and pulled
! heavily on the home stretch. In
conversation with the latter
after the race, the question as to throw
ing the race WAS preached, and was IN
I drgnantly denied by him, he stating that
he had bet his own money and had
been airly beaten, and ;hat Wci-gerber
was the best MAJ Of me two The
Brown boys, we understand, propose
making up purse for Denmarsh, VINO
lost about all his ready cash on the race
In this connection 1t is also we'll to state
that the prospects OF race between Eel
sing and Weisgeroer, tins season, are
not favorable. 1t is now late in the
season, and Weisgerber having rowed
two races in the past few weeks, has de-
clared his intention 10 retireior the pres.
ent season. Next year, however,
match between the parties will doubtless
be made.

DISCOVERY OF SATELLITES OF MARS,


Professor Asaph Hall, of the Washington
Observatory, has recently announced them
teresting discovery of two. satellites attend
ant upon the. planet Mars. AT about IL
O'Clock on the night of August l6, Professor
Hall, by the aid Of the great % inch retrac-
tor telescope, noticed a very small, star FOL
lowing Mars by q few seconds. Two honrs
later he looked again, and. to his surprise
found that the distance between planet ana
star he'd not increased. although ti.e former
was moving at the rate Of 70. seconds per
hour. Hardly crediting his discovery, Mr..
Hall delayed further observation until he
could bring the matter before his colleague,
Professor Newcomb,. and, that astronomer,
being confident that the discovery OF a sat
elite had been made, calculated roughly its
time of revolution. which he found to be l
day and.8 hours. This enabled the predlc-
ton of the potable place ofthe satellite on
the following night-a prediction which was
verified. On the morning of August II an
other satellite appeared, and its identity
was fully recognized.
