Two sensational features snlivened the ,hir.
tieth annual regatta Of the Harlem Regatta a.
ISOLATION. which was held over the Harlem
River course YESTERDAY. The hitherto unde-
feated senior eight Of the First Bohemian Boa.
Club, winner OF the national championship Last
year, were beaten by the Varsity eight of the
University of Pennsylvania. and the picked
twelve oar-cutter crew Of the First Naval Bat
TALON Of this city. was totally distanced by q
heretofore unknown crew from the New
port, Rhode Island. Torpedo Company.
The defeat Of the Bohemians was more
or less expected, a. II was not thought

was for two years the coach of the Bohemians
he wns well informed as to the exact extent OF
their ability. But the defeat Of the local naval
reserve crew was not on the cards at all, and ss
almost the entire battalion OF amateu, tars,
with their female friends and guests galore,
were gathered In q gayly decorated steamer
and q half dozen cutters. at the finish line, In
anticipation Of victory, the defeat was all the
harder TO bear.
The arrangements for the regatta were much
better than ever before. and the races were run
of rs planned with remarkable promptness
and smoothness. From noon to half past sx
there was an unbroken series of races, three
the first hour and one every half hour there
after. There was no delay with any race, and
some of them were started before the time be-
cause the contestants were ready and waiting.
Another feature Of the regatta was its free
dom from accidents. Only two fouls occurred
during the entire day. The first was when q
barge from the Dauntless Rowing Club fouled q
crew from the Excelsior y. c. OF Paterson.
This, however. was due to the laundering care
1essness Of n youthful and inexperienced men,
Der Of the club. who, in the absence Of the cap
tain. and In violation of the rules. took out Q
party boat on the river. and would not otherwise
have happened.
The second case was furnished by George Lee.
the professional oarsman. who was so interested
in watching the leaders of q race that he failed
70 get out of the way Of one OF the tail enders.
The usual holiday crowds lined the wharves
and banks of the river and stood upon the
