Columbia,s Grow Collapses.

NEW LONDON. Conn, June 27.-The fea-
lures OF to-day's boat races were the exct-
ing contest between Cornell and Columbia
and the sensational collapse of the Columbia
crew the instant they crossed the finish
line. When they stopped rowing SIX of them,
Bradley, Miklehcm, O'Brien, O'Gorman,
Capp and Foote fell over in dead faint,
completely exhausted. rive OF the six
broken down men recovered consciousness
within few minutes, but Miklehem was un-
conscious for fully thirty minutes. While
the six men were being placed on board the
steamer two Columbia men, futile and Pei
ton, stroke, also tainted and had to be
assisted out of their boat. When
the Columbia launch arrived at their
quarters the entire Columbia crew were
lifted out and carried to their rooms ana put
to bed The men were in pretty bad shape.
They had been rowed TO u standstili and had
completely broken down. Tuttle was quite
excited and Mt times slightly delrous. Mix
lehem and four others were slightly
hysterical and showed plainly the effects
OF the severe strain under which they
had been and of the high tension of their
nervous system when they found themselves
defeated. Jasper Goodwin, the famous Co
lumbia oarsman, admitted the men were
badly used up and were still under the
weather, but said there was nothing serious.
From other sources it is learned that shortly
after the race boat was sent to Gales
ferry and physician summoned. This doc
tor is now with the men, and, it is under
stood, he will remain at the Columbia
quarters all night as u precautionary meas
ure. Many ularmir rumors are current about
the condition of Columbia's men. but the
Columbia men assert they will be ali right
in the morning that they pulled an unusu-
ally hard race, and were outrowed and ex-
hausted and gave up broken hearted over
their defeat The Cornell men, who
pulled wonderfully plucky race. are
around town tonight feeling bright and
sound as a dollar. The following is the Off
cial time of the freshman race: Harvard,
1921; Columbia, 1888. In the triangular
race Cornell won, Columbia second, Penn
sylvania third No time was taken.

Eouod Dead in the Street.

ST. LOUIS, June 27,-The dead body Of Il
young woman was fosnd early this morning
on Union avenue, in the western suburbs of
the city. From appearances it is supposed
that she was murdered, perhaps outraged
and afterwards taken to the place where
found to prevent detection. The woman has
not been Identified, but her general appear
ance her clothing and other personal effects
indicate that she was a country girl of hum
Bile origin. Nothing definite is known.
Later-The postmortem showed that death
resulted from blows on the head. The girl
was in delicate condition. 1t is believed
she Is Annie Weiss, of Jefferson City, Mo.
A later special from jefferson City says
the news of the tragic death of Anne
Weiss created considerable excitement
there. for the girl was widely known and
generally respected. Her mother has been
prostrated ever since the receipt of the
news Her uncle and brother went to
st. Louis this afternoon. The girl has been
head chambermaid at the Madison house.

aloof from all associates in the house. One
of her sisters said tonight that the affair is
mystery to them. Anna came home sick
about the first of June and remained about
the house until finally persuaded to
run down TO see her sister, thinking that q
change would benefit her. Her letter from
ST. LOUIS on the 25th was common place
one. The woman vas not especially attract

At the Coliseum.

Notwithstanding the fearfully oppressive
weather, there was another fair turnout at
the Coliseum, last evening, to witness the
three indomitable bicycliennes continue on
their weary pilgrimage. While the even.-
ing's performance was interesting, there
was not much about it calculated to enthuse
the audience. Enthusiasm, with the thcr-
mometer up in the SOS, is a scarce quantity
under any circumstances. Baldwin and
Stanley still cling to each other like grim
death. and eventual triumph for either de-
pends on sprintng abilities on the final lap
of the final night, and it is as much of an
uncertainty as ever which will win. They
are both making u wonderful gritty and de-
termined race, and the laurels will be few,
even for the victor, as this can only be gained
by the narrowest possible margin. They run
away from Williams as they please, and
were either contending against her alone,
she would have nc show on eartk of beating
them out.

AN ASS AT LARGE.
How a New York Girl Discounted Il
WOuld-Be Mashcr.


was talking with my regular waiter
in Broadway cafe upon the subject of
"mashers," writes Il New York corre-
spondent of the Chicago Herald, and
he related to me good anecdote of one
that came under his notice.
1T was good lesson he said, that
a charming young lady taught to one of
the fashionable fops that come in here
at noontimc for no other purpose than
to stare at the ladies. One day the
young lady of whom ! speak entered
and took one of the least prominent
tables in the room. No sooner had she
came in and gaZed about to see where
he should most enjoy his luncheon.
Seeing the young lady by herself. he
went and sat down at the very next
table, so that he could look right into
her face. He then proceeded to watch
her and to try to attract her regard.
Finally she was forced to look at him,
but she only did so in order that he
should see how annoyed she was and
how his attentions disgusted her. Moth
ing daunted, the dandy kept on
staring. Soon the girl asked me for
paper, pencil and envelope. | bought
them. She began what | thought was n
note, raising her eyes to the young man
surprised at this action, but when she
called me to her and directed me to hund
her note to the young man | lost my
faith in women entirely. However [
took the note over to the young man and
waited for him to read it. He was smil
ing in very conceitcd and happy way
as he tore open the envelope. When he
spread out the paper within saw his
countenance change like flash. |
looked over his shoulder, and what l
saw nearly male me burst out laughing.
On the paper was drawing of the
young man looking as like him as pho
tograph, but the head was put on the
body of n donkey. and the great flap
ears hung down over his cheeks, max
ing him very foolish even for donkey.
Underneath was written: Something
[ never before met in q we'll conducted
restaurant" Well, the way that dandy
got out was Il caution. He looked rs
though he would have liked to insult
the girl at first for revenge, but he
thought better of it, and walked out ns
stiff and indifferent rs he could.
If Ill our New York girls desired TO
repulse the attentions of strange men
there would be fewer 'mashers" in tho
world. But am afraid they all do not
choose to teach lessons even when they

How a Pinkerto Man Got Prisoner
Out of Massachusetts,

Out of Massachusetts.
GREENFIELD Mass, June 27.--1Special
Telegram to The BEE. The police here are
greatly mystifed and not little Indignant
over the remarkable action of strange
Pinkerton detective, who suddenly made
himself known, swooped down upon q
stranger who has been stopping here for
some days, and arrested him on the charge
of forgery lately committed in Iowa. The
local authorities were not in the least con-
suited. and before they had recovered suff-
ciently from their astonishment to inter
fere. the Pinkerton had bulldOzed his
prisoner into humble submission and
whisked him out of the state without
the formality of consulting Massachusetts or
her laws So quietly was the whole affair
transacted that only the briefest intimation
of the circumstances OF the arrest can be OBJ
tanned. Last Friday young man registered
at the Elm house as w. II, Wilson, Of Bos-
ton. He had companion with him, both
pretending to be engaged In selling goods of
some kind, but they didn't put any effort
into the business. They pretended 20 be
without funds, and yet when occasion de-
manded had plenty of money. Saturday
another stranger arrived and registered as j.
g. Burke, from Sioux City, la. He soon
found a way TO convey the impression to the
young men that he was u ''crook," and
thoroughly wormed himself into their
and supplying them plentifully with
liquor. After he had started their tongues
in good shape, he suddenly disclosed himself
as u PlnkertOn detective, showed his badge,
and charged Young Wilson with having COM
mitted forgery in Sioux City or vicinity to a
large amount. Wilson seemed to be the
principal one in the affair for his companion
was allowed to make good his escape, which
he promptly did. The only statement made
by the detective was when he made the ar
a IN va

Attempts were made TO stop the detective,
but he got over the state line before he could

THE CRoNIN DRAGNEr.
1t is About TO Land Another Batch Of
SUSPECTS.

CHICAGO, June q. The grand jury took
new tack this morning in the Cronin case
and once more started to look up Alexander
Sullivan's speculations Messrs. Schwartz
and Dupee were subpoenaed to bring their
books to the jury rooms for inspection. 1t is
believed in this way light will be thrown
upon the features Of Sulliyan's speculatlons
which have hitherto escaped scrutiny. The
actions of the police indicate that some arrests
are to be made soon. Someone is reported
to have squealed. The police refuse to say
who and rupor has it that the dragnet is
about to land some of the conspirators high
and dry. Detective Palmer says John b.
Beggs was arrested to prevent his holding
communication with the outside world.
1t is claimed that Beggs has been
visiting members of the alleged trial COM
mittee and it was thought that he had put
flea into the ear Of more than one of the COM
mittee.
Nothing of interest was developed at the
afternoon session. and no indictments were

LIE MARS, Ia. June 27.-[Specidl to The
BEE. Sioux county has seven farmers
alliances with a total membership of 1872.
They recently had county convention ut
Rock Valley and resolved as follows:
That the members of the county alliance
pledge themselves In their respective parties
to vote for the nomination and election Of a
man who will pledge himself to work and
vote for equalization of taxes.
That it is against our interests to use
MANILA or ssal twines in any shape, and we
recommend the use, of American hemp as
the BEST cheapest, and most satisfactory
twine IN the market, the use of which will
settle the twine trust question.
Many other alliances in northwestern Iowa
have taken nearly the same action. In Ida
county there are five strong alliances, and
they are all waging war on the binding

four alliances have resolved to bind their

GERONIMO THE SECOND.
A Slippery Outlaw Eludes tho Grasp
of the Oflicer3.

OF the Ofhcer3.
Sheriff Slaughter returned recently
from Charleston, about nine miles from
this city, where he and party had II
brush with Geronimo, the noted outlaw,
who is charged with numerous crimes.
among them being murder, train rob-
berry and horse stealing, says the Tomb
stone (Ariz,) Epitaph. Sheriff Slaugh-
ter, who has wanted Geronimo for
long time, learned II few days ago shat
the outlaw WAS at Bisbee and immedi-
ately went in search OF him. Not find
ing his man at Bisbee he went TO a wood
camp and arrested Mexican, who Was
so badly frightened that he offered to
lead the officers To whore the outlaw
was concealed. They proceeded from
there to Charlestown, and were takon to
n tent Just outside the town where their
guide said Geronimo was. Sheriff
Slaughter remained outside and DEPUTY
Fisher and the guide entered the tent.
All was dark inside and the deputy lit a
match, when man was seen era wing
under the tent. The guide exclaimed:
There he is" and the deputy imme-
diately made jump for him, but failed
TO catch him, and as soon as the sheriff
could run around the tent he fired q
heavy charge Of buckshot at the flceiug
fugitive just as he was jumping over
the fence. Instant pursuit was given,
but owing to unfamiliarity with the
ground the officers were compelled to
give up the pursuit. The sheriff is con-
fident that some OF the shot struck the
outlaw, and that this will shortly lead
to his capture. A large reward is offered
for his capture both in Mexico and Ari-
zona. He has defed the officers fer
some time and several times narrowly
m
riously wounded by bullet. Officers
are now in pursuit, and tho news of his
capture is expected Ia very short

Omaha II, milwaukee, 3.

Life is too short and there is entirely too
much caloric circulating in the atmosphere
for an extended report Of yesterday after
noon's game between the omahas ana the
Milwaukees.
1t was another prepostorously long drawn
out and uninteresting struggle. The wood
choppers played like so many corpses, and
there was not brilliant feature about the
game.
In evidence of this fact it is only necessary
TO say that in the ninth inning no less than
thirteen of the White Sox went to bat, all of
them once, and Willis, Nichols Cooncy and
Cleveland twice each. Every man made a
hit save Andrews, and Nichols and Cooney
two, and every blessed ono of them scored
except Wally, and Willis and Nichols twice.
Nichols pitched an elegant game, striking
out nine men in six innings and allowing but
Six hits to be made off of him. Willis
twirled during the last three innings, but
one safe drive being made Off of him.
But the score will supply the details:
