THE HANLAN-Ross RACE.
| In this connection II may be well to suggest to
our boating friends that If the proper effort is
made It Is believed that the contest between Han
| Ian and Ross can take place upon the Potomac.
| No better course can be found anywhere than
upon our own river, and the champion has al READY
tested his powers here and expressed himself NJ
| highly satisfied with IT, fthe race could be ar
ranged so as to take place some time during the
Yorktown celebration 1t would attract to the city
thousands Of people, even more than those who
came to witness the Hanlan- Courtney fasco This
is a matter worth considering, and 1t Is hoped that
our boat clubs may take 1t up in earnest
TIE COURSE CHANGED.
It Is understood that the project of building
grand stand ut Easbys Point has been abandoned,
and further that II has been decided TO change the
course OF the race that II shall be farther up the
river, This action Is in accordance with the sug-
gestions Of THE REPUBLICAN,, which early pointed
ont the disadvantage In locating the grand stand
at Easbys Point and of having the course
extend from that point down the river,
or rather from mile and half below
Easby's up to that point. BY moving the
course up the river The crowds that the event will
draw to the city can have an opportunity OF wit.
Messing all the races and the various boat clubs
will be enabled to entertain their friends in their
own lighthouses, 1t is gratifying to know that
the suggestions Of THE REPUBLICAN in this respect
have been needed, There will be no postpone
mont of the regatta unless some new complication
should arise in the Presidents case, which at
| present does not seem likely.
