petus to intercollegiate rowing at home.
The Yale Harvard races have rs a rule been
one sided and embarrassing, and the win
ncr has frequently won by lengths. Now
that Harvard is to throw in It's lot with
the other aquatic colleges, the race In
which Columbia, Cornell, University Of
Pennsylvania and Harvard are to compete
will be one of tho great rowing events of
the year and should 60 far toward renew
ing and reviving the enthusiasm which in
old days was inseparable from the annual
races of the Intercollegiate association"
Mr.. Garfield then spoke of the enthusi-
asm with which oarsmen were preparing
for other contests all along the Atlantic
and Pacific coasts and on the great lakes
He expressed no surprise at the progress
the sport was making, for 1t is one which
naturally appeals to overy manly man who
has opportunities for indulging In 1t.
The unusual animation that Is mani
Testing itself this season is very gratifying
to Mr.. Garfield and fulfills his predictions
of last year. He also looks forward to fur
thcr exhibitions of zeal on the part of
those who have heretofore been but luke
warm supporters OF the great pastime. He
thinks that oil the big rowing events will
attract very largo part of the attention
OF the public and believes that the boom
In this class of aquatics will be permanent.

Montauk No More.

Tho announcement of the sale of Mon
tauk from the stable Of Mr.. Croker, which
was cabled to America recently, was not
much of surprise to those who knew the
colt. Mr.. Croker is to be congratulated
upon Kidding his stud of such unpromising
timber, and Mr.. Sibary, the purchaser Of
Montauk, is wise in canceling all the en-
gagements made for him. 1t is said that
Mr.. Sibary will put the horse at the hur-
dies in the course of time and see what
can be made of him as jumper. Even
that course Is considered hazardous by
Americans, who know Montauk to be a
heavy and leggy horse, who will go down
like brick house IL he should overreach
himself at all. Indeed there seems little
prospect that tho Strathmore colt will dis
tinguish himself In any line.

dresses of welcome and responses.

zation, and Frank Deedmyen spoke for
the German citizens of Williamsport.
An address of welcome was also deliver
ed by Rev. Father Golden. State Pres-

tion, the Republican convention will
meet at st. Louis on the 10th inst, and
as the national committee began
its session on the 10th, the interest
is now at fever heat Newspapers
are supposed to be able to accomplish
wonders, but it is doubtful whether
one person in thousand appreciates
the effort which great journal puts
forth to please its readers. At st.

Press will be represented by Hon.
Charles Emory Smith, Col. james H.
Lambert, Col. George N. Mccain, L.

city editor of the Press. These gentle
men will control the services of u corps
of skilled telegrapherS and every detail
of the proceedings will be given to the
readers of the Press each day. 1t is
doubtful whether any newspaper has
been represented at one point by so
distinguished Il staff.

POLITICAL PlCkUPS.

Morgan b. Williams has had Sam
Boyd, of the Wilkosbarre NeloSdedler, ar
rested for alleged libel. The accused
waived hearing and furnished 81 900
bail for his appearance at court. The
arrest was no surprise to Mr.. Boyd, as
he had worked hard to induce Mr.. Will
lams to take action. A speedy trial is
all that the NeaoSdedler man wants in
order to create sensation in this
county.
Every good Democrat should pray
night and day for the nomination of
ex-senator Williams as the Republican
candidate for congress. If he is nomi-
mated this district will send the Demo

known as close friend of President
Cleveand's, says that ''if the Chicago
convention adopts free silver platform
no Democrat can consistently vote for a
candidate pledged to its support.

Mr.. Norris, il is understood, has had

BOARD OF TRADE MEETS.
Lively Session Held Last Evening.
Will Run an Excursion.

At the monthly meeting of the Board
of Trade held last evening, which was
well attended by the active workers, the
action taken at the last meeting in re-
gard to holding picnic in the Public
park was dropped. The matter was
brought about by some Of the members
stating that considerable opposition had
developed within the Citizens Hose Com
pany towards allowing the Board the
use of the park for the Fourth of July
when it became known that the party
who had engaged the park on that date
had decided to not utilize it.
The matter brought out some discus
sion which was not at all favorable to
the iiremen, as they were charged with
basing their action on politics, although
it was claimed for the liremen that the
park overseer Mr.. Powell, had not been
asked for the use of the ground on the
Fourth by the Boards committee.
The difficulty was finally overcome by
arriving at an understanding to run an
excursion. Treasurer Butt stated that,
in conversation with an Allentown Board
of Trade member, he was told that if
the Freeland board would run an ex-
cursion to that city, the Allentown
people would join them and have joint
outing at Rittcrsvlle. Mr. BUTTS sug-
geston was received favorably. Presi-
dent Price will appoint u committee in
few days, with himself rs chairman, to
make arrangements for the affair.
Secretary Kline read letter from
Ellis r. Simpson, of Scranton, one OF
the silk mill projectors, who stated that
he would begin the erection of the mill
Immediately on being assured that the
territory in which it will be located
will soon become part of the borough.
The matter was referred to the executive
committee, with instructions to meet on
Wednesday night next. An effort will
be made to have Mr.. Simpson confer
with the committee, and in all lileli-
hood he will be assured that everything
is favorable to the erection of the mill.
The annexation movement occasioned
lot of talk. Attorney Carr reported
having sent out the petition and also
the surveyors map of the plot to be an
nexed. The Board donated $25 towards
the expense of the work, and the com
mittee taking the petition around will
also solicit donations to cover expenses.
Another communication from the
horse shoe nail factory was referred to
the executive committee, with the view
of having the protector come on to see
the town.

"Daniel Coke Memorial school"

A special meeting of the Frecland
school board on Monday evening was
attended by all the members but Direc-
tor Rute. Architect Rudrauff was pras-
ent with the plans of the new school
building, and the same were accepted
by the board. An agreement was then
entered into by the directors and the

lied to supervise the construction and

MITE OF A CHILD.
He Is Three Years Old, But Weighs Only
Ten aud One-HaIf Pounds.

The United Charities Society OF
Wilkesbarre was called upon on Monday
to take care of very interesting speci-
men of humanity, a three-year-od boy.
who was born when his mother was II
years old and his father 7S. The little
fellow enjoys tho romantic name of
Jesse James Long, and was born in
Union township. His parents were
hard working people and eked out an
existence on miserable farm in an iso-
lated section of the township until fore
ed to give up work on account of old age.
| Five children were born to them. The
! first four were of normal size and grew
up naturally, but the last one, Jesse
James, came at a time when his mother
and father were feeble, inlirm and al
most helpless. When the child reached
the age of two years, his father died and
his mother followed six months later.
His two older brothers had established
houses for themselves in the west be-
fore the baby's appearance. One sister
was married and upon the remaining
one, Rosabella, II young woman, devolved
the care of the child. Not having any
employment she, with her little brother
started to walk to Scranton. where she
believed married sister was living.
When she reached Wilkesbarre she
was unable to go farther and applied at
the mayors office, and was directed to
the kindly care of the United Charities
Here the girl and her little brother have
found a home since, but what DISPOSE
tiOn will be made of them is not known
until the sister in Scranton is heard
from. The little fellow stands twenty
two inches high and weighs ten and one
half pounds. He is unable to walk, but
creeps about the floor in lively man
ner and is apparently contcnted. He
is unable to talk, but crows like u
healthy ycarold youngster and under
stands the greater part of what is said
to him. His head is not much larger
than an ordinary base ball and Il quarter
of a dollar would cover one hand. He
is quite curiosity, and several hundred
people have called at the home to see
him.
