At OLD B0MDOlN.
The Athletes aad Boating Men Making
Ready for the Seasons Work.

BRUNSWICK, April Special. The
freshman class has reconsdered its decis-
ion not to put on a crew this spring to row
the sophomores and has voted to buy the
junior shell, SO the old fashion of having a
sophomore-freshman four-oared will be
carried out the last of the term as usual
A. G. Hebb has been elected manager of
the freshman crew and J. II. Bates, cap
tain: Merriman, French and Baker will
probably be the other three of the crew be-
sides the captain. The Androscoggin has
been clear of ice for some time and train
ing will begin upon the river at once.
The sophomore crew will probably be the
same as last spring although its captain.
B. l.. Bryant, is now seriously i'll at his
home in Massachusetts. Bowdoin as
college will not attempt this spring to add
to its ilustrious rowing record of former
years, and no Varsity crew will go into
training
A good number of men are in training
for track athletics this term, AMI there is
no danger that the annual field day will be
omitted this year, as it was last, on account
of lack of interest. The recent admission
of the college to the New England Inter
collegiate Athletic Association has done
much to arouse this interest, ard the college
will send a fine team of representative ath-
etes to the meeting, which takes place at
Worcester, Mass, May "a.
The college field day will be held
before that date, which is several
weeks earlier than usual. The
practice indicates that several college rec
ords will be broken then. Bates has al
ready beaten by four feet the college rec
ord for putting the lG-pound shot.

TESTING THE WIRE GUN.
Thirty seven Miles Of Wire Used in the MAX
ing Of II.

BIRpsBoRo, Pa, April 1.-The frs,
public test of the Brown segmentsl wire
wound gun was made Saturday. Three
shots were fired, and the gun successfully
withstood pressure which the experts de-
clared would blow any other gun in the
world to atoms.
The gun was mounted on fiat railroad
ear and taken to the proving ground. which
is an old stone quarry two miles from town.
charge of twenty pounds Of special
slow burning powder was used for the first
shot.
The projectile weighed sixty pounds.
The gun, still mounted on the car. was
pointed at the stone quarry and when the
spectators had retired TO safe distance the
electric connection was made, there was a
sharp report and big puff of smoke and a
cloud of dust and broken rocks rose from
the stone quarry
The gun recoiled about five feet on the
ear, and the car itself moved dozen feet
backward. The test gauges showed pres
sure of %, 200 pounds per square inch.
The gun was cleaned and reloaded with
- pounds of powder for the second shot
The recoil was 10 feet. The pressure
gauges showed pressure of 80, 500 pounds
ne gun sHO"eu no Signs OF INJURY. lie
third and final test was then made.
The charge was 80 pounds of powder.
the projectile so pounds weight. The sho,
made louder report than either of the
others. The gun recoiied about Is feet
and a section of the stone quarry rose in
the air as the projectile struck.
On examination of the test gauges,
which were set to show pressure between
10000 and 10000 pounds, it was found
that the pressure bad gone beyond the
larger figure, and exceeded the means at
hand for measurment.
The actual compression shown was
1856 inches. How much pressure was
required to do this may be inferred from
the fact that pressure of 10000 pounds
produces compression of only .0sil
inches.
The pressure was declared by the experts
to be something above 20 900 pounds. The
gauge will be sent to Frankfort arsenal for
accurate measurement. As the standard
army requirements are only 81 900 pounds
it will be seen that the wire gun has far ex-
ceeded all expectations.
The total length of the wire used is 81
miles. The gun is - feet in length and
weighs three and one-third tons. Its cost
is less than that of a built up gun and it re-
quires less time to manufacture.

THOUSANDS OF STRIKERS
Now Urging Universal Suffrage in
Belgium by Violence.


BRussKls, April l,.--Many men en-.
rloyed at Antwerp in loading and ,iischarr-
ing vessels and other work about the
whsryes did not quit work in Obedience to
the order of the men engineering the strike.
During the morning the strikers made an
attack on the workers,
The aendarmes took a hand in the aifray.
Some of the attacking party fired on the
police with revolvers. The gendsrmes also
opened fire and it is thought that several
strikers were wounded, A number of the
ringleaders were among the strikers cap
tured.
Deeds of violence are reported from
most of the industrial centres. In the
Chaleroi district it is estimated that 10000
miners have quit work and are demonstrat-
ing their right to vote for members Of the
Chamber of Deputies.
The cotton yarn, lace, linen, wooden
nulls and factories in Gramant, East Elan
ders, are affected by the movement, a large
number of operatives in these industries
having joined in the strike movement.
Some of the more enthusiastic and hot
hlouded strikers assembled in the cafe
Rolladais Al that place today and held an
impromptu meeting.
The gendarms attempted to break up the
meeting but met with stout resistance.
The strikers were dispersed after long
contest and after two gendarmes and large
number of rioters were seriously wounded.
Order now prevails.

CLtvELAND'S JEALOUSY.
To That is Attributed Ms Degrading Of the

WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE indigna-
ton al the bauling down of the American
h,g over the Hawaiian Islands has not
ceased. The action of Mr. Clevclands
"'Personal Commissioner" Mr.. Blount. in
thus de grading the symbol of the authority
of his nation at Honolulu is denounced gem

senator Lodge of Massachusetts. with
true American spirit, was quick to realize
the situation He offered IN the Senate n
resolution calling upon the secretary of
state to inform the Senate "by whose au-
thority the American flag was hauled down
from the government building at Honolulu
on April !.
To this Senator Butler Of South Carolina
offered an amendment, adding the words,
And also by whose authority the same

The Press correspondent has high
authority for stating that President Cleve-
land is really in favor Of annexation, but
that he wishes utterly to destroy, SO far as
it may be in his power, all credit that
might attach to the Harrison admins
tration for the negotiation of any treaty
which might result in the acquisition of the
Hawaiian Islands.
This is quite in accord with the green
eyed jealousy which has shown itself in the
effort TO discredit the commissioners and
attaches of the United States in attendance
at the BehriDg sea tribunal of arbitration
now in session at Paris.
The general feeling in Washington is
that Mr.. Blount's rash action in hauling
down the flag has subjected the Cleveland
