International Eogt Raoinr.

1t is possible that there will be an in
ternational rowing match arranged be-
fore the close of the rowing season of
1892. For some time past an informal
correspondence has been carried on be-
tween the president of the Oxford Uni
versity Boatclub and the rowing men
Of both Harvard and Yale colleges in
the United States. The medium of
communication was Mr.. Chase Mellin,
an old Brasenose oar, who is at present
residing in the states. The idea was to
bring Oxford against the winners of the
Harvard Yale match. Harvard has al
ways expressed a willingness to ratify
an international match if such thing
was possible, and the only bitches likely
to occur We're the locale and the time.
In an interview with R. G. Lehman, the
coach of the Oxford crew, that gentle
man says:
The Oxford University Boatclub is
very anxious to arrange a match with
the winner of the Yale-Harvard match
this year. Informal communications
have, | believe, come from the other
side of the Atlantic, and have been an
swered by Mr.. Fletcher, who is now
president of the o. U. B. c."
Mr. Lehman thought that a race
might be arranged ON the river Thames,
between Putney and Mortlalse, in the
month of September, and that Mr..
Fletcher and his companions expect to
get favorable reply is an open secret.
1t is well known fact that joint COM
mittee Of Harvard and Yale has favored
this project for some years, and it was
the intention of the Americans to invite
a representative crew of English college
rowers to Chicago next season to take
part in the national regatta there. 1t is
more than probable that the winners of
the Harvard Yale race will meet the
English rowers on the river Thames this
year, and then ask for a return contest
next year at Chicago.-London Sporting

Money In Trust for n Cat.

In Paris there is a cat whose future
welfare has become quite a question of
public interest. The animal belonged
to Nine. Dubrai, and his mistress was
SO fond of him that she left a sum of
money in trust to the mayor of the
third arrondisement, in which she re-
sided. for the use Of the scholastic fund
(Caisse des Ecoles) on condition that a
certain amount shall go toward pussy's
maintenance. A trusty person is to be
nominated by the mayor, who will under
take to house the lucky cat and give
him three meals day, consisting of
such delicacies as lights, liver and
heart. Ii is estimated that after this
charge has been met there will only be
about 200 francs year left for the fund,
and the question now agitating public
functionaries is whether that sum is
worth the responsibility to be incurred.

Tuesday afternoon, during the rain

few miles south of this place that acted
very strangely, to say the least. 1t was

seemed to burst asunder, one part going
to the northwest and only forty or fifty
feet from the earth. One of the sections
passed over or through the tops of some
tall poplar trees and shaved them off as
if gigantic moving machine had
passed that way. A heavy hailstorm
also passed over narrow strip of coun-
try near there, and at Sand Slough there
were piles of them still remaining in
spots late Wednesday morning. Very
little hail fell here, and it was so small
as to be scarcely Observation-Disclosures
