 THE YALE CREw-NEw LONDON GOSSIP. NEW LONDON, June 13.-The managers of the excursion steamers are greatly troubled over the hour at which the Yale-Harvard boat race will be rowed. No definite time has been set and some of them are in doubt what excursions caa be run. The shells of the Yale crew have arrived and all came through without harm. Captain Dad- man and the Yale launch have been busy to- day taking things up to the quarters prepa- ratory to making them more comfortable for the oarsmen. Considerable baggage came over to-day.
 Herman Oslrichs has been selected as the referee of the Yale-Harvard race.
 The manager of the Harvard freshman crew was in town Wednesday afternoon for the purpose of securing some seats on the observation train for the Yale-Harvard race, but much to his disgust none could be had. It was his opinion that New Haven had been too wide awake for the rest of the country.
 The steam launch Carrie Goodwin, ,belong- ing to the Columbia college navy, broke her wheel as she was coming down the river yes- terday morning. She is hauled out for re- pairs.
 The crew will leave here this noon for New London, and will be followed by Harvard next Tuesday. Boat Builder Keith of this city will accompany them and remain till after the race, to keep weather eye on the fragile crafts. Rogers and Percy Bolton will be on hand to do the coaching till the arrival of Bob Cook, which, unfortunately, will not be until the 23d. The crew are all in exoel- lent condition.
 The first race set down is the thrse-cor- nered affair between Columbia, Cornell and Pennsylvania, for Tuesday, June A.
 PHILosoPHIcAL.
 The Boston Globe speaks of college grad uate as follows:
 It must be confessed, too, that the world has no use for most of the knowledge he has acquired in college. It is too much alive for his dead languages, and takes but very limited interest in his logarithms and quad ratios. His knowledge, no doubt, is of an obstruse and erudite nature, but not of that useful quality that Is easily convertible into groceries and dry goods. h live, current English, the newly graduated finds it hard work to make his living. He is lucky if he gets job at S10 e week.
