AS long as the republicans in conven-
ton at Colby, Kan, endeavored to nomi-
nate congressman and transact other
business they wrangled and shivered the
golden rule, but when they suspended
operations and devoted themselves to
"Marching Through Georgia." the sun
came out and the white wings OF peace
glstened in the light, Kansas may be
little shaly on Turner, but it is solid on
the Georgia episode. e.--RdRSGS city STAR

The weather was not the best the market

that there was not a steady down-pour Of
rain all day. As it was the clouds kept off
what could not fail to have been scorching
rays Of the sun.
As usual the small boy ushered in the
ceremonies Of the day with musket, pistol
and cannon cracker. The explosives seemed
in the dim uncertain light Of morning to be
32-pounder guns at the very least. but as
daylight strengthened they came down to
the old fashioned noise producers, nothing
more.

and the policemen of the city reinforced by

followed. In his letter Of regret ex-Presi-

and independent American citizens will, so
long as their love and veneration for their
government shall last. revolt against the
domination of political party which,
entrusted with power. sordidly seeks only Its

for the rowing regatta at State street wharf

were black with people and they remained so
throughout the afternoon.

the six entries only two rowed, O'Connell
and Randall, both Of the Dirigo Club. o.
Connell took the lead, having the outside

The four-oared race was disappointment
1t was an event Of which there had been
great expectations, in which two powerful
crews from the Cumberland Boat Club were
to participate-the Cumberland crew and the
Webber-Frates crew. Unfortunately at the
very beginning Of the race Leonard of the
Cumberland broke his seat. The crew wish
ed time to repair the injury and to try new
race, but Mr.. Williams, after learning how
that the Webber crew would not yield the
right which was theirs, to row over the
course and claim the race, felt bound to
award the race to the latter crew.
This race then was disappointment, but
1t was made up for by the next and last event
of the day-the race between two crews from
the war-ships. The Dolphin was represent
ed by cutter boat Of IA oars, and the Kear-
sarge by whale boat Of IL oars. The Dol
phin's cutter caught slight lead at the start
but at the stake the two boats came
around about together. Then followed a
time Of intense excitement, the coxswains
of both boats shouting encouragement, bend
ing to every stroke of their crews, while the
men made every muscle and sinew do its
best. Cries Of go 1t, cutter" and "Hlt her
up. whaleboat," came mingled with the
cheers from every wharf. Here and there
along the course were boats Of the gunboat
tars who had enough strength left after
their fatiguing march Of the morning to
shout madly at their struggling comrades in
the rae Both crews pulled plucky race,
but the weight or build Of the cutter was not
made up for by the two extra men aboard
her, and the whaleboat finished very little
in the lead with the time Of II minutes II
seconds.
The success of tho affair-and 1t was
great success-is due in very great measure
to Alderman McClutchy, chairman Of the re
gatta committee.
