WEEKLY REGATTA OF THE coLUxBIAs.

WEEKLY REGATTA OF THE CoLUMBIAs.
At six O'Clock this evening the Columbia Boat
club will hold their weekly regatta on the Poto-
mac. The course will be one mile-from the Col
umbia boat-house to the AQueduct and return.
The races will be for double working boats and for
our-oared shells. In the former race the entries
are Kintner and Stinemetz, Williams and Smith,
Brace and Olds, Murphy and Garland, and Holle-
rfth and Davis. The men In the different
boats are pretty well matched, and there
Is considerable doubt as to which OF the five
will come in ahead. The four-oared shell race
viii be between a light and heavy weight crew.
1t has not been definitely decided who will In
this race, but pro baby the light boat will be
manned by Smith, Zeigler, Williams and Olds and
the heavy boat by Henderson, Thompson, Nesmith
and Woodward, There is a probability that a
race will be made up for single shells also.
After the races hop Will be held in the boat
house The cosy house OF the Columbia boys is
always crowded on these occasions with pretty
girls from Washington and Georgetown, and they
always enjoy both the races and the dances.
THE PoToMAos
have held but one hop this season, bit that was
great success, and was greatly enjoyed by all who
were In attendance Their next hop will be held
stant and after that they will occur every Thurs
day evening during the season.
OTHER LOCAL BOATING NOTES.
Last evening the Columbias had out their two
fours. They have eight men In good condition,
from whom they can select four at the shortest
notice.
The Potomacs had out their eight-oared shell
last evening. The junior FOUR which is to row the
Rappahannocks, at Fredericksburg, on the 4th OF
July, are practicing every evening. They are in
better condition than they were a week ago. and
have Improved somewhat in their style. The
waist men are heavy, and the stroke and bow are
light men, Tie average weight OF the crew now
Is $50 pounds.
Parker Page, who recently won single scull
race on the Harlem, has returned to Washington
from New York. and last evening occupied the
sweep, and his presence here completes the Ana
loStan four. They had out as good a crew last
evening as they could probably get together
White, stroke; Eddy, 3; Marshall, 9, and Page,
bow. In fact, it was such good crew that it
gave rise to considerable speculation as to
whether the Analostans would not be represented
n the open race at Fredericksburg after all.
The single Scull race at the regatta at Fred
erickS5urg will be very interesting. Mckinney
and Morgan Will represent the Potomacs, Brace
and perhaps Page the Analostans. Aldrich, OF
Baltimore, will also enter. 1t is understood that
the OBfien brothers, OF Boston, will be competitors
in this race. They said TO be very fast either
In singles or In a double. Their presence will not
deter the Washington boys from rowing, but Still
they would like to know for sure ii the O'Br1ens
will be there.
