THEY RACE IN THE RAIN.
Cambridge Defeats Oxford by
Four Lengths.

LONDON, March 3O.-Crowds began
at an early hour this morning to wend
their way to Putney to witness the
annual university boat race. The air
was light and the water smooth, but
there was tendency towards a fog.
The weather, which had promised
fair very early, settled into
heavy rain before the race came
Off and created great discomfort
among the vast crowds which lined the
river bank and those who were atioatln
every conceivable kind of craft. The
crews made an excellent start at :13 p.
m. The cambridge crew took the lead
Immediately. and passed under Ham
mersmith bridge boat length ahead of
the Oxford crew, which was working
hard. Both crews we're rowing we'll as
they passed the bridge, but the Ok
fords shortly afterward became muddled
and were put out of trim by bad steer
ing. The men began splashing some
and almost collapsed at Barnes bridge.
Near the end of the course, they made a
final squirt and did some good work but
it was too late, and failed to win them
the race. The Cambridge crew rowed
smoothly and we'll throughout the race
and came in at the finish four lengths
ahead. The time of the Cambridge
crew was 20 min., ID sec.

Two Western Managers Who
Want Justice in the New
Schedule.
They, Therefore, Get a Meet
ing Called for a General
Overhauling.
"0rator Shafer and Carry
Foley--Duryea Is in
Cincinnati.
Sandy McDermott's New Ar
mor--The Umpire and the
New Rules.

So James A. Hart and Harry D.
Quin, the precious pair of old cronies,
don't like the Western association
President Mccormick to call a meeting
for April at Des Moines. This is very
shocking, indeed. Hart and Quin never
wanted much before. In years gone by
they have simply asked the other man
ayers to select what they wanted and
they would be deeply gratified to get
the remnants. 1t may be assumed,
therefore, that Hart and Quin, princes
of modesty and good nature, are merely
browsing around after justice, and the
six other managers are anxious to get
an opportunity to take run of from
100 to 1000 miles to crafty them. Of
course, the schedule is patchwork of
plumbers. Everybody is willing to &c
down on his knees to Quin and Hart
profoundly beg their pardon and do any
thing else which they may indicate
Half dozen managers may know what
from the following remarks recently
made by Hart: II will never consent
to the Des Moines clubs signing the
schedule which has been saddled On the
association. / sent in one that is fair
to all, but it was cast aside, and one
made to suit st. Joseph and Denver,
two new towns, regardless of the old
towns. The idea of Des Moines playing
six games at hon with each of the
Minneapolis, st. Paul and Milwaukee
clubs, and the same number in those
cities before meeting another club. The
whole thing is absurd and will bank
rupt the association if carried out"

Preparations for an Interesting
Season at Chicago.
CHICAGO. March 3O.-The exposition

cycles and cycling appliances, May ID
to Is inclusive. There will be one pro-
fessional event, continuing six days,
eight hours daily. For this $1,000 will
be given; and provided there are eight
or more starters it will be divided into
five prizes, the first man taking $500,
the second $3.50, the third SIPS, the
fourth SIS and the fifth $50. If there
are less than eight starters only
four prizes will be given, the
third man taking $50 and
special prize will be given to the win

miles. made by Morgan at Minneapolis.
The men who have already expressed
their intention of riding are Prince, his
pupil, Reading. the soldier. Knapp,
Morgan, Dingley, Ashinger and Harri-
son. The principal amateur event will
be a mile handicap, for which nine
prizes will be given, and in addition, a
souvenir to ever starter who fails to
take place. 1t will be run this way:
That there are forty entries, eight heats
will be run, five men in each heat;
the eight winners of those will
ride second round, four in each heat,
the first and second in each to compete
in the final for first, second and third
prizes. There will thus be thirty-two
men defeated in the first round OF heats,
who will run again in say eight heats in
what may be looked upon as a second
race. The winners of these heats will
follow the same course as is mapped out
for the winners of the first round, and
the successful men will take the fourth,
fifth and sixth prizes. The twenty-four
remaining men will go through the same
process exactly, the winners taking
seventh, eighth and ninth prizes. There
will be large number of other events
of various character,

How "Orator' Shafer Made Foley
Change His Mind.

Change His Mind.
In one of his recent letters, Charley
Foley says:
"There are SO many great players in
the country that no man can pick the
best. 'Keefe is the best pitcher one
man will say, while an equally well
posted man will pick Clarkson. Both
men have done wonderful work, but
Keefe has been in the arena the longest.
I'll never forget an argument got into
in Buffalo some years ago. One even
ing, as / strayed out of my hotel, I
passed up by the BroeZel hotel
recently burned DOWN, where the
Cleveland club were stopping. Several
Cleveland players were airing them
selves on the sidewalk, where they were
seated in comfortable chairs. 4 want
you to decide a question, Foley said
one of the players TO me. who is the
best right fielder in the country?' Jake
Evans l replied, without any hesita-
ton. Who do you suppose was listen
ing at a respectable distance? Why.
the famous "Orator" Shafer. who was
great right fielder himself. That set
tied it! Shafer rushed out with chair
and, handing me cigar, he babe me be
seated. $50 you think Jake Evans is
the boss?" was the "Orator's'' in
quiry. Here's what I'll do, Foley:
Phi bet 500 l can cover more ground
than Evans, 500 says | can run faster;
500 that | am as sure catch. and 5000
to 500 that can lay over him in bat
ting and base running. Where does he
lay over me?" George, you must eX-
cuse me-" said l to the Orator, 81 was
rather hasty in my decision, but I. am
now convinced that you are head and
shoulders over Evans as fielder.
'If hadn't given in to the Orator he
would have talked an arm off me before
letting go. He smiled at my decision,
then winked for the boys to get in front
Of the beautiful bar, and then all hands
smiled. Who will say that it is easy to
classify players?"

MOFFETT AS A MINER.
The Old Pitcher Strikes 1t Rich in
Montana.

According to the Cleveland Plain
Dealer good luck has come to Sam Moi
felt, the old Cleveland pitcher who re-
tired from the diamond and went to
mining out near Butte City, Mont. Year
before last he sunk every dollar he had
in the hole and was forced to return to
the diamond, and he was engaged to-
ward the latter part of the season with
the HO0sier team, and he also played
part of last season before he was re-
leased. Then he went to Omaha, but
made still ranker failure as a pitcher,
but having raised a few dollars he
drlfted back to his mine in Montana.
This winter he struck aging lead,
from while h he has realized $4,000, and
he has bought himself a lot in Wheel
ing, w. Va, on which he is building
com fortable home, preparatory to his
marriag e to Wheeling maiden next
month.

THE WORLD MOVES.
Quick Time From Havana, Cuba,
to St. Paul, Mimi,

Twenty-Five years ago it would have
taken from sixty to ninety days to get a
shipment of cigars from Havana, Cuba,
to st. Paul, Mimi. Kennedy & Chitten-
den, SIT Wabasha street. received a
shipment on the 25th of this month,
which left Havana on the 14th, only
eleven days in transit. They had
thought from fourteen to sixteen days
very quick time, but this beats the rec
ord. They have received three ship
ments of Havana cigars this month.
Their stock is large and fresh. When
you want cigars it will pay you to buy
of them.

THE POOR UMPIRE
Is Liable to Die an Unnatural
Death Under the New Rules.

rs ~L1aDlS TO Die an UnnaCural
Death Under the New Rules.
Capt. Irwin, of the Phillies. raises a
novel point in connection with one
of the new rules. He writes:
1.-The rule which reads that if the UNI
pire is hit with thrown ball the base
runner must return to his base will
cause the poor umpire lots of trouble.
Suppose, for instance, there is man
on third base and one on first. The
batsman hits ball to me at short stop.
l see that / can't get the man at the
plate, and hit the poor umpire in the
back of the neck or anywhere else.
can hit him trying to throw the batter
out at first; that is, if the umpire is
standing back of the pitcher. Accord
ing to the rules the man must return to
third base.
"What chance to pay the umpire
up for any fines the short stops, third
basemen and catchers will have Ia good
cigar if you hit him in the head. Mr..
Young, please have an extra supply of
umpires on hand, or else instruct them
to keep out of the diamond"

CARVER DEFEATS BUDD.
Interesting Pigeon Shoot at Des
MoineS.

Special to the Globe.
DIES MONIES, To-, March 3O.-The
pigeon match here to-day between C.
W. Budd, of Des Moines. and DR.. Car
yer, was won by the latter, who killed
eighty-nine to Budd's eighty-fve. The
day was not calculated to insure high
score. The air was raw and bleak
southeast wind swept the faces of the
marksmen and drove the birds
quartering to the right. Most of
them were strong and rapid flyers
and were difficult to bring down. Eight
of Budd's birds dropped out of bounds,
and of the eighty-five scored, forty-nine
were brought down by the second bar
rel. Carver lost four by falling out of
bounds, and thirty eight of his eighty
nine were killed by the second barrel.
A smart sum of mouey changed hands
on the match. Budd had never
been beaten before, and had never
made as low a score as that made to-
day. He is anxious for another match.
and one will no doubt be arranged for
next week.
