As the Columbias had Just rowed a hard
race in the junior eight, of which four OF
the men were entered in the Junas< four,
the next event, Lieut.. Baker wisely de-
cided not to row them, and the natty
new junior crew OF the Ariel Boat Club, OF
Baltimore, was the only starter, and
rowed over tire course for the medals.
Having to row in the senior four, the
crew took its time and took simply warm
ing-up pull and finished in 1884. By their
good form and especially fine blade work
they made IN any friends.

filled in with exhibitions OF the work

Not having finished settling up their
affairs until some time early Sunday

matters which led on TO a fight, In the
melee Wilhelm drew a knife and made q
vicious cut at Rembach, cutting a long
cash acrcss the latter's forehead: an
other lunge was made at his victims

shoulder resulted. This was followed by
