TRI- COLLEGE BOAT RACE.
CORNELL IS THE FAVORITE.
TWO TO ONE.
The Pennsylvania Boys Are PIucky
and Are Betting They Will
Defeat the Columbia.

PoUGHKEEPsIE, n y, June "a
Inls town is verVauiet. The hurrah
and enthusiasm that pervaded Friday
is absent today. The familiar college
cries OF Cornell, Columbia and the
University of Pennsylvania didn't
Startle the natives.
This fact does not mean that the
rnell-Columbia Pennsylvania tri-
college boat race has diminished. 1t
simply means that the froth of en-
thusiasm was absent, owing to the
postponement of sending most of the
college boys home. Profuse is the
display of colors.
The indications point to the race
coming off at 4:30 this afternoon in
perfect weather. The course is as
smooth as mill pond. The Penn
sylVania crew feel somewhat dis
paraged because of an accident to
their shell imparting its perfect
utility. The Cornell is the favorite,
two to one. The Pennsylvania is
plucky and is betting that they will
defeat the Columbia.
If the slight breeze doesn't increase
the race will be rowed on record time.
Great crowds began to arrive this at
ternoon to witness the event, which
will be grand.

THREE STORES ROBBED,
TWELVE-YEAR-OL BOY CAUGHT
IN WINSTON.
He Was Sent to FIkin, Tried and
Bound Over to Court-A Little
ChiId Burned to Death.

THE SENTINEL'S correspondent at
Sloan, Surry county, writes that the
stores of Marion Bros. and r. G. Pat
Uerson, at that place, were broken
into few nights ago and the money
drawers Of each firm were priced down
and bursted open. Fortunately neith-
er firm had any of their money in the
drawers, except some dimes, nickleS
and cOppers, which aggregated about
81. Marion Bros. also missed about
sixteen pairs of pants. There is no
clue to the robbers.
Friday morning. about O'Clock. the
store of Robt. Trueioye, at Shoals,
next station below Sloan, was broken
into and $40 in cash. some cartridges,
etc, were taken. A boy about twelve
years old. by the name of Charlie
ClaybrOOk, who was loafing up and
down the railroad and claimed to be
from WilkeShOro, was suSpiciOned, as
he was seen to have some cartridge
boxes with Mr.. Trueloye's cost mark
on them. He came to Sloan and
bought a ticket to Winston. He also
went to the store of Il. G.. Patterson
and bought him new suit of clothes
from head to foot, threw his old
clothes away and boarded the next
train for Winston. When the train
arrived here the police arrested him
for carrying pistol. They took his
money, bought him d ticket and
started him for Wilkesboro, which
place he claimed as his home. When
the train pulled into Shoals Mr..
TrueloVe spotted" the boy and he,
with an officer, boarded the train and
went to EIkin where the young man
was taken off the train, tried and con-
victed. He is now confined in Dob
son Jail.
The next session of Sloan Academy
will open August 9TH, with Prof. Jno.
Allen as principal.
The wheat crops in the Sloan sec
tion are the best they have been for
years. The peach crop is excellent.
Apples are also good
A little child of Bird Whitaker,
near Sloan, fell backwards in pot
Of boiling water Friday and was
burned to death. The father was
standing in few feet of the child
when the sad accident occurred.
Aaron Whitaker caught carp in his
trap in the Yadkin river Monday
morning that weighed .! pounds.
