CORNELL MEN JUBILANT.
They Believe That Their Eight will Row
the Cambridge Crew.

the Cambridge Crew.
The last three months the commodore of the
Cornell University navy has been corresponding
with Cambridge University in regard to an
eight-oared boat race between the crews of
Cornell and Cambridge. The correspondence
has all been of favorable nature, but it was
not until the dispatch was received Saturday
evening. stating that Cambridge would row
Cornell at the worlds fair, that it was really
imagined that she would accept the overtures
and would row in America The news was en-
received and spread like wildfre
over the campus.
Capt. Ives of the Yale crew. however SAYS
at will make no difference with Yale whether
Cambridge, Oxford or any other English crew
goes TO Chicago. Yale will not send crew to
the fair under any circumstances We have
refused the invitation of the Chicago navy to
enter the regatta which is being arranged for
the worlds fair and that decision was final.
I'm safe in saying that Harvard will take the
same stand in the matter"
Apparently Yale takes an unsportsmanlike
stand. but the reasons given are good ones. 1t
is claimed that there is no course at Chicago
which il true. The y. A. A. o. would have
held its regatta there had there been a course
Rowing in the past has been done out on Lake
Pullman, "A number of miles from the city where
the water Is shallow and full Of long eel grass
Ii would take thousands Of dollars to make the
course half way decent and the Chicago people
have not taken the first step in that direction,
nor did they give any assurance ~ the \. A. A.
o. that they would. The Chicago navy must
pat out fuller prospectus if it seeks the con-
fidence Of oarsmen.

The theme of the second sermon yesterday
morning in the course now being delivered at
the Church of the Covenant by the pastor,
Rev. DR.. Hamlin. on current theological ques-
tons, was Higher Criticism" The speaker
said that the word higher was used in contra
distinction to the word lower. The latter has
to do with serving the best attainable text of
the scriptures. while the higher may DO termed
literary criticism which studies the style of the
various books The attitude that should be
maintained toward the higher criticism. the
speaker said, should be one Of suspended judg-
.ment. Let us say to the critics. Go on with
your work and we will wait for more light"
he thought that this criticism carried on in a
devout and reverent spirit is hardly a matter
for ecclesiastical discipline. 1.-THE church in
deed may. if so disposed, rid itself of all the
critics by the process Of discipline; it may cast
out all original Investigators; but this would be
to sound its own death kneN and bury itself in
the darkness of the middle ages. Investigation
will so on. Men will inquire and think. and
infer, and conclude. For one, stand for
liberty of reveren. and Christian scholar ship
within the Church of God

Wheelmen will convene at Philadelphia today and
several important questions will be discussed
Professionalism has crept into the ranks of the
league of late. and the settlement of this matter
will evoke probably hot debate.
II il feared that the proposed Cash Prize
Racing League will attract amateur wheelmen
and the pro-amateur class is proposed to over
come the difficulty.
The question of admitting colored men to the
league will also be brought up.

JOHANN HOFF AT COURT.

Men diligent in their business
stand before kings" Johann Hoff
has not only stood before kings,
because with untiring energy he
has scattered the benefits of his
Malt Extract all over the world,
but he has also received from them
certificates of excellence and per-
mits as sole purveyor of Malt Ex-
tract to their respective courts
an honor truly to be appreciated,
yet testimony at the same time
to the public at large that Johann
Hoff's Malt Extract is worthy of
universal patronage. To the dys-
peptic, to the debilitated, to the
convalescing, it is as mamma in the
wilderness. Beware of limitations.

MITCHELL HAS SIGNED.
He Waived His Claim for Division OF the
Purse.

He Waived His Claim FOR Division of the
Purse.
Charles Mitchell has conceded all the condi-
tons demanded by Corbett- The only point of
difference between Brady and Mitchell has been
conceded by Mitchel-the question of the
division of the stakes On Friday Mitchell
wanted the loser to have 20 per cent of the
stakes. The two par ties met Saturday evening.
After a very little preliminary discussion
Mitchell announced that he was willing to con-
cede that the winner should take all the purse.
Superintendent Byrnes took a hand in the
affair. He read in the papers Saturday MORN
ing to his great surprise, he says, that men
were openly in New York city making, or at
tempting to make, arrangements Tor prize
fight between two men named James Corbett
and Charles Mitchell The superintendent heard
further that these arrangements would be con-
tinued SATURDAY. He said he would cause ali
concerned in the prize fight arrangements to be
arrested il the matter went any further The
superintendent said that chapter 458 of the
penal code made it a misdemeanor to arrange
for prize fight.
Acting under orders from Supt. Byrnes,
Capt. Slevin and four Of his men appeared at
the place where the prize fighters or their
representatives we're to meet. They had in
structions to arrest any one who tried to bring
about fight. Shortly after o'clock the place
Inspector Williams and Capt. Slevin entered
the building and at once made known their
mission
Word WAS sent to Mitchell and Brady and
the other men expected to attend the meeting
explaining the situation and they did not ap-
pear
The conditions agreed to and informally
jotted down before the question of dividing the
purse came up were:
The match to be for SO, 600 side and the
largest purse offered by the Coney Island, Cres-
cent or Olympic Athletic Club.
Phil Dwyer to be the stakeholder or in case
Of his refusal to act. Dave Blanchard of Boston
or Ed Kearney OF New York city
The fight to take place in the second week in
December, the day to be determined three
weeks before the fight.
One-half of the purse to be deposited by the
club the day the contestants sign the agree
ment, the other half twenty-four hours before
they enter the ring.
Marquis of Queensbury rules to govern and
the fight to take place in q twenty-four foot
ring.
Thirty days to be allowed to the competing
clubs in which to bid for the fight. The sue
cessful club to name the referee and other Of
cials.
Gloves to be of the lightest weight allo we'd by
the club holding the contest. Corbett to fur
nish sets of gloves of one, two, three. four and
five ounces from which Mitchell is to take his
choice Of the weigh. of gloves determined upon
by the club.
In no case is there to be draw. The men
are to fight until one is down and unable to rise
within the ten seconds limit.
The fighters to give bonds in 5000 each
three months before the contest to guarantee
their appearance to fight.

Since the illness Of Justice Buckley and the in

been at q loss for q magistrate. As there is no
salary attached to the Office and the income de-
rived from fees being small. il seems impossible
to find one both capable and willing to accept
the position. The law provides for two ius-

readily dispense the business Of the community,

The Acknowledgement Fight Begun.

NEW YoRK, Feb. 20.-Charley Mitchell says:
II think that my fight with Sullivan was
harder one than this is likely to be. My own
opinion is that Sullivan is the greatest fighter
ever born and if Corbett had tackled him in
his prime he would not be champion todsy-I
mean Corbett wouldn't And what do you
think of Corbett as compared with Jackson?"
II think Corbett's chances with Jackson would
be better now than ever. When he fought him to
a draw in San Francisco he was young, mex
perienced man and the black fellow had already
made a record. Now Corbett has been sparriug
around the country and fought Sullivan. and of
course he learned great deal ard can do bet
ter than he did before. That's why I think his
chances are better than they were"
