The Canadian Loses the Championship to
StanSbury.

SYDNEY, n. S. W.. June 3O.-The
second race between VIM. j. O'ConnOr,
the Canadian OarSman, and James
StanSbury, of New South Wales, which
was rowed owing to claim by O'Con-
nor that he was fouled by Stansbury in
the first race, last Monday, took place
to-day on the Parametta river aud was
won by Stansbury. The race was over
the course three miles and $50 yards
and was for a stake of $1,000. This re-
suit settles O'Connor'S claim to champi-
onship fame for it is generally conceded
that Stansbury is faster than Kemp,
whom O'Connor is down TO row for the
championship.
StanSbury was born in the ShoalhaVen
district, y. :. W., - years ago, and for
the past two years he has been regarded
as very promising sculler. January
Il, 1887, he won the Lake Bathurst han
dicap race with 40 seconds start, de-
fcating Kemp and Matterson, who foul
ed after rowing half the distance. July
l3, he rowed Henry Searle for the cham
pionship and $500 side. and was de-
featcd. In September, 1883, he was de
feated in Il thrce-corned race by Beach
December IL. 1883, he was defeated IN
the grand acquatic carnival. Since hi:
defeat by Searle he has greatly improv-
ed and when O'Connor met him ycster-
day he was probably a better man than
Searlc at his best. He rows at about
172 pounds, and is possessed OF immense
strength and credited with great stay
ing powers.

JUDGE 4. IL. FITZHUGH.
Death in Richmond of a Gentlemen Well
known in Wheeling.

Judge Il. II. Fitzhugh, who died in
Richmond on Thursday last, was at one
time one Of the prominent lawyers OF
this city The Richmond Dispatch gives
he following sketch Of his life:
Deceased was born in Caroline coun-
ty, near Mt. Zion, nearly sevcnty-four
years ago. When quite a young man he
moved To Fauquier county, and was
soon made deputy sheriff. Aftcrward
he studied law. and when ready to be
admitted to the bar ne located in
Wheeling. w. Va. He was soon chosen
Clerk of the Circuit Court. and later be-
came partner with Hon. Charles W.
Russell, one of the brightest men Of
that State and a member OF the Conied-
crate Congress.
Before the war Judge Fitzhugh served
term iu the Legislature and was made
delegate 10 the Secession Convention.
At the beginning Of hostilitieS he came
TO Richmond and was made quartcrmaS-
ter of the state. in which position he
served faithfully for four years. In lSG2
hc was one of the electors and voted for
jefferson Davis for President Of the Con-
fcdcracy.
When the war ended there was Somt
gold in the Treasury and Governor
Smith used this 10 pay of the State oili
GERS. One thousand dollars fell to Judge
Fitzhugh. lie at first accepted the
money for his salary, but after the war
was over concluded he should not have
taken il and so returned the gold to the
Treasury.
When hoStilticS ceased Judge Fitz-
hugh, being intensely Virginian, dccid-
ed 10 locate in Richmond for the prac-
ticc OF his profession. He formed a
partnership with ex-governor Henry a.
Wise and they continued together until
1870. After Virginia was readmittcd
into the Union under the new Constiiu-
tion the General Assembly rcorgani1cd
the judiciary. established the Chanccry
Court Of Richmond, and in 1870 Judge
FitZhugh was called 10 preside over IT,.
He was reelected in 1876. but when the
ReadjustcrS came into power In lsSl
they selected Hon. \. l.. ll0lladay for
this position. When the lattcr's term
expired Judge FitZhugh was reelected.
and on January !. lsss, again entered
upon the discharge of his old duties.
No purcr or better man than Judge
Fitzhugh has ever been On the bench In
Virginia. He had great mind for
chanccry business. and always listened
patiently To all arguments produced be
fore him. no matter how tedious they
were or how trivial the cause. lie con.
sidcrcd well his cases and was slow To
arrive at decision. lie was one Of the
most conscientious men that ever held
public Office Nothing would turn him
from the path ~ duty. Though easily
approached and gentle in his manner
there was peculiar 'irmuc>> about him
when hc made up his mind that rrr-
tain thing was right.
