WASHINGTON OARSMEN ABROAD.
Two Races Won at Baltimore-The Pc.
t0mac Eight Ruled Out.

At the second annual regatta of the Patapsco
river navy at Spring Garden bay, Baltimore,
yesterday two Of the races in which most In
terest conferred were won by the Washington
crews, the senior four being won by the Psto-
macs and the eight-oar race being won by the
Columbias The course was a mile and . half
The senior four-oared gig race, in which the
Columbus, the Vespers of Philadelphia and the
Ariels Of Baltimore had crews entered, was
won easily by the Vespers in s.22. In the senior
fours the Ariels and Potomacs had crews. The
Potomac's shell was manned by L. A. Fischer,
Jos. Tobin, E. R. Reynolds and J. S. Dyer.
The Potomacs won with much ease in 80. In
the eight-oar race, which closed the days sport,
the Potomacs, Columbias, vespers and Ariels
had crews. The Potomac's eight comprised
Warden, Fischer Brace. Sawyer, Norton, Tobin,
Reynolds and Dyer, With Doyle as coxswain.
The eight Columbia oarsmen were Elder, Ken
yon, Mckinney, Janus. Johnson Baker, Har-
ban and Ryan, with Smith as coxswain. A bad
start was made, in which the Potomac and
Columbia shells crashed together. The crews
were called back and the Potomac crew was
disqualified. The three other crews then
started, the Vespers securing the lead, which
they held until within 300 yards of the finish,
when the Columbus spurted magnifcently and
went to the front, winning by length in g. 20.
At the end of the race Kenyon nearly tainted
from exhaustion and Mckinney and Baker
showed signs Of much distress.

Hot Work forNthe Firemen.

little after 10 o'clock this morning an
alarm of fire was turned in for a blaze in a
small two-story brick house, No. SOC 18th street.
The fire department responded at once, and
engines No. 2, 1, 6 and and truck B we're
promptly on hand and succeeded in putting
out the fire before it had done very much
damage. The house had shingle roof and
that was completely destroyed, but as the house
was unoccupied the water did little or no
damage. The origin of the fire is unknown,
but 1t was probably caused by sparks from an
adjoining chimney falling upon the hot dry
shingles.
just as the fremen had succeeded in extin-
gushing the first blaze a second alarm was
rung for fire on 25th street near NJ. The
iremen did some very pretty work in getting
ready to leave the one fire and going to the
other. and no time at all was lost. Luckily the
second fire did not amount to much and it was
put out without any difficulty.
